And finish stormblood

[gloomy bridge]

What gear should I try to upgrade to at level 80 while I'm in the middle of the Shadowbringers MSQ?

[unreal stratus]

oh also Boost

[patent citrus]

the dungeon I'm in was ghymlt dark, the last SB dungeon

so the person probably havne't entered SHB yet

[prisma hill]

Best easy gear to get is 510 crafter gear.

you can augument it to 520 later without paying

[gloomy bridge]

Oh awesome! Thanks! Is that the Exarchic set?

[unreal stratus]

yes

[faint flare]

Make sure it's high quality

[prisma hill]

Yeah, you can exchante Exarchic gear for tokens and then exchange it for augumented ones

Though what I do is buy the cheapest set for any class and instantly turn it in for augumented gear xD

For instance a chest piece for tank could cost 150k while for dps it could go for 90k

[worn peak]

is there a guide for this?

[prisma hill]

you can exchange it for the same thing

[faint flare]

Your jobs stat priority

Basically crit > dh > det for everyone

[worn peak]

so do i dump everything into crit then star dh?

[faint flare]

Yes

You can max 2

[worn peak]

so like this?

[faint flare]

Yes

Last into det

[prisma hill]

Is a boat for the FC house a good way to make passive gil?

[torn pawn]

how do i get a chocobo when i just hit lv 20

[faint flare]

Do the story

It's after joining a grand company

!faq mounts

[zinc orbit]

Mounts FAQ

'When can I get my first mount?'

The quest that allows you to use mounts, 'My Little Chocobo' is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest 'The Company You Keep'. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose and you'll need to buy the Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 needed Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'.

'Are there any differences between mounts?'

Some mounts allow multiple people (2/4/8) to ride at once, with all mounts having the same movement speed. A partial exception to this rule is the SDS Fenrir, a mount from the Mog Station. The SDS Fenrir acts as if you have the first mount speed boost obtained from completing specific quests in the story, making it a bit faster than other mounts until completing the relevant story quests for that zone.

'Can I make my mount faster?'

Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

[patent citrus]

Samuel's blade from MGR 👀

[torn pawn]

i am at main story level 16 or smth and im lv 20 .-.

[lilac mason]

yeah, it's pretty common, just keep pushing

[wintry inlet]

Does handsaint stuff not spiritbind because it lacks materia slots?

[umbral dune]

lvl 80 gear, when the best way to spiritbond it is crafting lvl 90 receipt

[jaunty flame]

a question is it possible to do sidequest with main char then switch to alt char to collect the exp?

or is it more worth to collect the whole exp on the main one

still have a lot msq to do

[grizzled pine]

how come that in some areas I am much faster than in others?

when on my mount*

[lilac mason]

as you progress through the MSQ you get mount speed increases in certain areas

[faint flare]

Story gives you mount speed upgradess

[grizzled pine]

oh okay, thanks

[faint flare]

Jobs need to be the quests minimum level to turn in

No quest boosting jobs

[jaunty flame]

ah ok thanks

[opaque heart]

as dragoon, what do yo use the elusive jump for?

[faint flare]

Getting out of aoes or getting back to the boss faster

Aka mobility

[thorn thicket]

Just make sure the arena is big enough

[boreal storm]

don't jump off a cliff

[opaque heart]

is there any macro that makes my character turn 180 degrees?

[faint flare]

No

But you can just press S

On legacy

[jaunty flame]

do you take more damage if you fall with a mount

[faint flare]

To turn around 180

[faint flare]

No

[jaunty flame]

i once died with a mount

[faint flare]

You only die if you're in combat

[jaunty flame]

and the last jumps ended all with 1 hp

oh ok

[faint flare]

You don't die if you're not in combat

[jaunty flame]

thanks

[faint flare]

Falling is percentage based

[jaunty flame]

and if i am not on a mount i also cant die if i am not in a battle?

[faint flare]

Being on a mount doesn't change anything

[lilac mason]

you just don't die from fall damage

[jaunty flame]

man i always took the long way

[faint flare]

You only die if you're in combat

[jaunty flame]

goddamn it

[umbral dune]

[faint flare]

And only if you get lucky with getting the mount

[raven escarp]

uh... I was trying to change the class of my retainer and I may have reset his class thinking that's how I could change his class to dancer... what do I do now? :/

[willow sparrow]

How do I upgrade my resistance weapon? It's currently Woeborn Recollection

[faint flare]

You need to do delubrum for get the next steps, so continue the bojzan story

You need to open Zadnor (requires 5.4 done) to access all relic steps

[willow sparrow]

ah, I'm stuck on bozja, the quest I'm on needs me to go to an area but the enemeis there kill me in 3 hits

[faint flare]

They only spawn at night

So go in the morning

Or just walk slowly

They aggro by sound

[willow sparrow]

I don't know what you mean

the quest I'm on is called Third Times the Charm

[faint flare]

Yes

The mobs that kill yu

Only spawn at night

[willow sparrow]

oh

dang

[faint flare]

And they aggro by sound. Which means if you run then they'll aggro

[willow sparrow]

I'm not on in the morning

[faint flare]

But if you walk

[lilac tide]

Want to check before I pull the trigger. I have the game on Steam ARR+Heavensward. if I buy Endwalker also on Steam, I get all the content I currently don't have, except I gotta wait to access it when Endwalker comes out in Nov, yes?

[faint flare]

It's not your time of day

[boreal storm]

Eoreza time

[faint flare]

It's the eorezan time

[willow sparrow]

oh the in game time?

[faint flare]

Yes

[willow sparrow]

ahh okay

[faint flare]

Yes you get the other expansions in November

If you walk, the Undead mobs won't aggro either

So you have options

[lilac tide]

So buying Endwalker on steam and I get it all? Sucks no sale for steam users but yeah ;-;

[vivid plaza]

What’s the drop chance like on extreme trial mounts?

[faint flare]

Low ish

There's no confirmed rates for anything

Cause it's impossible to know due to how it's calculated

[vivid plaza]

Can only 1 person get it per run?

[sleek needle]

Yes

Max 1 drop per run

[vivid plaza]

Alrighty. Well, at least it’s more attainable than I thought. I thought they came from savage difficulty

[faint flare]

There are mounts in savage

[boreal storm]

Savage also has mounts

[faint flare]

On the last floor of each tier

Except A8s

[boreal storm]

And Coils

[limpid flicker]

Where the church to marry

I can’t find it

[boreal storm]

[faint flare]

THE wedding church

[weary jungle]

how do i repair this?

[vivid plaza]

Okay, I’ve seen a lot of the combined pony and bird, but like none of the wolf or mech, do people not really run those?

[faint flare]

It's in the Hawthorn Hut area

In the shroud

[limpid flicker]

Where is it

Ok

It’s not there

[boreal storm]

go north

[faint flare]

All the way north west

[umbral dune]

find mender, some area have, but most reliable is market place of city state like uldah, limsa

[raven escarp]

guys is it impossible to get a red mage retainer to swap to dancer? :/

[weary jungle]

im on free trial

[umbral dune]

mender is vendor npc

and the market place is where market board reside, not telling you to interact with it

[boreal storm]

You can also self repair with appropriately leveled crafters

[faint flare]

You need to reset it

They can't go job to job

[raven escarp]

so like reset completely? I did that but can't find dancer in the list

[faint flare]

You need to level it to 60

Then swap its job

[ashen adder]

for someone who's about to get started in savage raiding which eden's raid is the 'easiest' or compatible?

[raven escarp]

I leveled red mage to 60

[faint flare]

You need to level it as a class

Not a job

[raven escarp]

oh so base class?

[faint flare]

Yes

[raven escarp]

oh I screwed up so bad :/

that's so stupid though... my character went from ninja to red mage to dancer and I'm still leveling....

I leveled my retainer to 60 for nothing ><

[ashen ginkgo]

Hey guys, I went ocean fishing for the first time last night and now my whole inventory is full of rare spectral fish. What do I do with them?? Sell or i read somewhere you can use them for culinary stuff? But I haven't joined culinary guild yet

[faint flare]

All ocean fish are useless

Junk them

They're used for literally nothing

[ashen ginkgo]

I am a new player so not much money yet and not joined culinary yet.. so should i sell them for money or use for that class??

[faint flare]

They're used for NOTHING

[raven escarp]

do you guys think there's a chance I can get a GM to revert my retainer reset? idk how to contact them

[faint flare]

They wont

[jade quartz]

No

[umbral dune]

sad but no

[ashen ginkgo]

when I mouse over them it says you can use them for a culinary thingy

1.00

[faint flare]

That's desynthesis

To get some bait back

[boreal storm]

also useless

[heavy wadi]

ocean fishing fish are useless

[faint flare]

They're complete junk and useless

[raven escarp]

so I have to level a retainer back from 0... how long does it take to get one to 80?

[ashen ginkgo]

so you wouldn't sell or use them to get bait back?

does it help level your culinary class?

[wicked glacier]

is there any "skimpy" glamours I can buy from MB as DRG lvl 51?

[leaden ginkgo]

anyone know a site where i can find like actual customisation's for a character as im trying make a good lookin cat girl and i cant make a good one

[jade quartz]

No, you’ve been given a very clear answer

They are used for NOTHING

[heavy wadi]

sell them to a vendor.

[jade quartz]

junk them

Vendor trash

[ashen ginkgo]

Ok thanks! What about other non ocean fish I got like princess trout, shrimp n stuff?

[leaden ginkgo]

Level 70 redmage here. Trying to get my rotation down, but I can't figure out what procs the impact buff to make casting impact worth it over jolt 2.

[jade quartz]

Some are used in crafting recipes but they’re all cheap and easy to get anyway

!action impact

[zinc orbit]

**Impact** : lvl 66 RDM (400 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(5.0 second base cast time)

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 220 to target and all enemies nearby it.
Additional Effect: Increases both Black Mana and White Mana by 3

Powered by XIVAPI

[jade quartz]

It’s AoE

You don’t cast it in place of jolt ii

Don’t read guides from over two years ago

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok, that's what I was wondering. Thank you very much.

[tough raft]

yeah, combo it with verthunder/veraero II

[ashen ginkgo]

oh ok! so just keep the ones that say crafting material when you mouse over them?

[leaden ginkgo]

Finding proper guides that don't immediately go to YouTube seems to be a problem lately

[little grove]

as a new player (just hit level 50), are there any gathering or crafting classes that you'd recommend? Originally thought about fishing, but it sounds like it's useless now from the previous messages xd

[jade quartz]

No that’s not really a distinction

You can safely get rid of most fish

[boreal storm]

All of them

You'll travel to other cities at lv15 in the story

Remember to attune to aetherytes

[ashen ginkgo]

oh ok.. im level 22 but I guess I'm not far enough on story yet

[faint flare]

Story locks EVERYTHING

[little grove]

I also just hit 50 and finished the basic realm reborn story, and I want to push some harder content, are there any dungeons, raids or trials u'd recommend that are overly challenging? I'm ilvl97 atm

[ashen adder]

what's the 'best' Eden's savage to do for someone who is just getting into savage raiding?

[faint flare]

E9s

Cause it's current

[ashen adder]

then just do them in order?

[faint flare]

Yes

[ashen adder]

alright, any tips other than maximizing dps and knowing every mechanic? 😄

[faint flare]

Practice

Everything is scripted out the ass

[ashen ginkgo]

stupid question but.. does Limsa Lominsa have guilds for all the disciples of hand and land? Or do you have to go to other cities to find some of them?

[faint flare]

No

Each major city has its own set

[ashen ginkgo]

oh ok cool!

[sleek needle]

2-3 crafters in each, 1 gatherer

[ashen ginkgo]

awesome, thanks!

[ashen ginkgo]

is there any way to disable sound effects from other players? soooo loud

[sleek needle]

There's a setting to lower skill effect of others

[jade quartz]

System configuration > sound settings > there will be sliders to lower volume of other player effects

[sleek needle]

Not at pc so can't tell you exact location

Well

There ya go

[ashen ginkgo]

this one?

[sleek needle]

Yep

[faint flare]

And party

For your party members

[ashen ginkgo]

oh thank god

[faint flare]

Other pcs are non party members and npcs

[ashen ginkgo]

do you put that on 0 or just lower ?

[faint flare]

You can lower it to make it not loud

Or turn it off

Do whatever

[leaden ginkgo]

so I pre ordered endwalker last night and it said it was confirmed but then when I checked my bank this morning no transaction was made and I didn't get my pre order bonuses, so should I just pre order again or wait until 48 hours.

[faint flare]

They don't take money now unless you press the debit now button

You still get the preorder code

[slate arrow]

The actual transaction doesn't happen until Endwalker EA starts

[faint flare]

Might need to wait for it or nose your orders page

[leaden ginkgo]

really? where can I find the pre order code

oh nvm it said it was confirmed

ah ok nvm, I got it, thanks

[willow sparrow]

If I do Expert Roulette and get the daily reward. If I run it again, do I get the tomestone rewards that are listed as reward for the individual dungeon queues?

[jade quartz]

Yes

Just as if you queued for the dungeon normally

[willow sparrow]

Okay, that's good. Thanks

[ashen ginkgo]

can you use the same gear in multiple gear sets?

[jade quartz]

Yes

[nova karma]

question, im using glamour plates so basically everytime i upgrade my gear, i need to reapply glamour, now if I want to turn in/sell my old gear, do i need to dispell it first or no. also what do the different colour crosses mean, i know some mean the dye colour but i dont think i dyed any of these 2, or does one of them mean emperors new set. ty.

[vague bison]

hey quick question: is there anything usefull I can do with the exarchic stuff once I upgraded to cryptlurker? Cant sell on the market again right?

[stable grail]

What was the option under settings that hides msq if you have completed it,
if i have job quest available it also gets hidden

[floral island]

how do i craft faster?

[jade quartz]

You don’t have to dispel.
Blue x — you can’t equip this item on your current class but you can on one of your other classes
Red x — you can’t equip this item on any of your classes, either they’re not high level enough or it’s like a gender locked glamour item

[floral island]

im in armory and needing to get to lvl 15 for glamoring

It’s bound to you yeah. If you don’t want to keep it for glamour or anything then you can desynth or trash it, or equip a retainer

[nova karma]

hmm

its equipped though

[jade quartz]

Just crafting each different item in your crafting log once to get the checkmark (first time craft exp) should be enough for that level range

[nova karma]

Including elemental shards

[floral island]

yes

[boreal storm]

Click the 11-20 section?

[floral island]

plenty

[vague bison]

equip it to a retainer sounds like a good options once I got one lvled to 80 🙂

thx

[jade quartz]

Do you have 22 craftsmanship

[boreal storm]

Also doing lvl 1 crafts won’t help a lvl 9

[jade quartz]

What message do you get when you click synthesise

[floral island]

oh ig nt

[ashen ginkgo]

where do you see Perception on your character sheet? I can't find it

[fathom heron]

i have 2 questions

[jade quartz]

You have to be on a gatherer to see it

[fathom heron]

what do macros do?

[ashen ginkgo]

oh ok.. does it affect cooking high quality though?

[fathom heron]

and how do i use them for the side buttons on my mouse

[jade quartz]

Execute a sequence of text commands automatically

[boreal storm]

No because Cul is a crafter

[faint flare]

Perception is gathering

Not crafting

[ashen ginkgo]

ok thanks! my culinary quest gave me a gear with perception so i was confused

[jade quartz]

Not sure what you mean

[jade quartz]

That’s because some early crafter gear is shared with gatherers, it’s weird

Eventually that stops happening

[lone totem]

there are macros, that are game-designed user-defined automated commands that allow you to record multiple actions and trigger them with a single button

and there are system level macros that are outside of the game

[stable grail]

Can someone please tell me how to toggle MSQ notification back on from settings(the one that hides it if its finished)?

[fathom heron]

so i have 12 buttons on the side of my mouse and i want them to be seperate to the numbers on my keyboard

[boreal storm]

Combat macros are bad

[jade quartz]

Ok sounds like you want to use a software to rebind those buttons to function as different keys?

[weary jungle]

how do i get this?

[floral island]

i got it ty

[lone totem]

that is a Free Company buff

[faint flare]

Be in a free company

[vague bison]

Im trying to get my last piece of the augmented cryplyrker set, the second ring. It says I can only possess one. can I not use the full set???

[fathom heron]

yeah but im just struggling to

[weary jungle]

oh ok. can i get any buffs on free trial?

[boreal storm]

Unique rings, gotta love em

[faint flare]

No cause you can't join an fc

[jade quartz]

You can only use one yes. To get your other i530 ring you need to do E9S for Edenmorn ring

[vague bison]

so I have to keep my aug exarchic one for now? thats a bummer, was exited about finishing the set

Im sure ive see people with the full set on

[lone totem]

you can technically by wearing a non-augmented piece

uniqueness is based on the item name

[jade quartz]

You can use one aug and one non aug

They’re different items

[lone totem]

meaning for example a "moose ring" and a "augmented moose ring" are two different items

[autumn hedge]

So what are the benefits of going through Palace of the Dead with a party past floor 60?

[lone totem]

to clear it, or to enter Floor 101+

[boreal storm]

Better hoard drops

[jade quartz]

Completing the story and getting accursed hoard items later

[last mural]

Regarding mounts from Extreme trials... How is it distributed? Do the party members fight for the drop?

[lone totem]

yes, highest roll wins

[last mural]

ooof...

[autumn hedge]

[boreal storm]

Same as all rolls

[lone totem]

and it's a random chance for it to appear

per clear

some chances higher than others, depends on the trial

[last mural]

No wonder people choose to solo for it...

[lone totem]

for older content, sure

but for newer content, it's almost impossible if not impossible to solo ex trials

[boreal storm]

You can’t solo most 60 EXs reliably

So just do a farm party

[umbral dune]

[limpid glacier]

is twine or dusting for left side gear

[astral edge]

how long does it take to get squadrons to a level where you can do command missions with them?

[faint flare]

Twine for armour, dusting for accessories and belt

[verbal rune]

Which is the best composition for squadroon if I want to go in as a tank?

Archer, conjurer and another ranged?

[twilit arch]

well only got one choice for healer. for dps, 2x arc or arc &acn is recommended

[twilit arch]

can do thm sure, but arcanist gives a bit more utility

realistically so long as its ranged, it's fine to use for squadron dungeons

[violet grove]

Is Zadnor/Bozja actually good for levelling? It seems quite slow. I've gone from rank 1 to 25 and I haven't even hit 80 yet.

[faint flare]

Yes

[twilit arch]

just dont bring melee cos its pretty meh

[faint flare]

Bojza is basically the deep dungeon equiliant in shadowbringers

Good for dps

[violet grove]

Just crazy I heard people being able to hit 80 in a few hours and that's no where near close.

[faint flare]

Make sure you're queing for all CEs people and getting gold ranks on all CEs and fates for max rewards

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/742029567643877416/811608355675963462/unknown.png

Xp chart

Zadnor is identical for xp

[violet grove]

CEs only give like 10% of a level.

Seems like Bozja has way more CEs anyway so it should be better.

[heavy wadi]

it doesn't, it's about the same in both places.

[faint flare]

Cause people actively cluster farm in bojza

So it feels that way

They actually spawn

People in Zadnor are lazy and don't cluster farm so they don't spawn as often

[heavy wadi]

Zadnor is more beneficial overall because you get a fuckton of mettle in addition to exp.

[violet grove]

I know how they spawn. No one seems to bother with the trash in Zadnor.

[faint flare]

Cause they don't cause lazy

[violet grove]

What benefit is mettle past 25? Iknow you get stats, but why would you care about more stats?

[faint flare]

And it's better to cluster farm in bojza anyway for memories

[faint flare]

Cause who doesn't want more damage

Free 30% PERMANENT damage buff

[heavy wadi]

it's very much worth it.

[faint flare]

Makes everything just go faster

[cosmic juniper]

So I have a question, I know that most dungeons are level synced but they aren’t item lvl synced, right? Does that mean I’ll do more dmg if my item lvl is like 150 compared to someone who has ilvl100?

[heavy wadi]

especially if you ever want to do DRS.

[wispy basalt]

hey i kinda have a problem with the sounds
the boss sound effect is way to louder i reduced the sound effect but still loud
is there a way to reduce it

[faint flare]

Your ilvl does get synced

Down to the highest ilvl of that era

If the specific ilvl isn't stated

[cosmic juniper]

Well I’m confused because some dungeons in duty finder have this yellow icon that says item lvl is synced. But other dungeons just say level sync and lists an avg item lvl @faint flare

[patent citrus]

!faq ilvlsync

[zinc orbit]

How item level syncing works

When gear is item level synced, melds are ignored and built-in stats are instead capped at the stat cap for the synced item level. For substats, this is the higher substat on an HQ, dungeon, tome, or raid gear piece of the same type at that item level.

For example, accessories at i475 naturally have 198 as the high substat, so any accessory above i475 will have both substats capped at 198 when synced to i475. Substats are NOT scaled up, only capped.

i530 synced to i475:
Substat A: 226 -> 198 (max 198)
Substat B: 158 -> 158 (max 198)

This is better than using an unmelded i475 item, but worse than using a melded i475 item, which is why it is still generally preferred to use non-synced gear for TEA (until sufficiently higher item level gear is available to sync).

[faint flare]

Cause that's ADDITIONAL ilvl sync

[granite zephyr]

where do i get patient necessity materials as botanist?

[faint flare]

It's only on level cap dungeons cause thats when ilvl jumps massively

Without that icon, you're synced to i130 in lv50 dungeons

Which is why praeotirum fucking melts

Cause it's designed for i50, not i130

[stable grail]

for blue mage i can only get spells if i am at its level?

[wispy basalt]

: c

[wanton skiff]

how do I get jurney's end gear for other classes unlocked?

just hit 80 on DRG

[faint flare]

Do the other role quests

[wanton skiff]

[cosmic juniper]

So basically if I have like ilvl150 and the dungeon says avg ilvl is 50, all my items will be ilv50?

[wanton skiff]

ok, thank!

[patent citrus]

which dungeon level? each level usually has it's own max substas

[cosmic juniper]

Say like copper mines normal

[faint flare]

If it's not stated that there is adding ilvl sync, then you'll be at the highest ilvl for that era

[wild parrot]

Hello guys, does anyone know which world has the bigger french community in Europe ?

[wispy basalt]

Vinyl are you ok u seems stress

[faint flare]

So for copperbell, you'll be synced down to its level

[patent citrus]

!faq worldpick

[zinc orbit]

'Which world should I pick?'

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.

Notable worlds:

• Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
• Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
• Moogle (Large amount of French players)
• Shiva (Large amount of German players)
  ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

[faint flare]

?

[violet grove]

Do people trade is spare field notes for coins or lockboxes?

[faint flare]

Lockboxes

[wild parrot]

Thank u <3!

[faint flare]

Coins are easy to farm

[cosmic juniper]

Ah I see. How do I know what the highest ilvl is for that dungeon? All I see is the avg item lvl @faint flare

[fathom heron]

is there a macro for bloodletter and venemous bite? its not working for me

[faint flare]

You don't really

[wispy basalt]

idk your typing way to fast

[faint flare]

No cause combat macros is fucking shit

[violet grove]

You generally don't macro abilities.

[faint flare]

I'm fast as fuck boiii

[violet grove]

Iwould consider macroing targetable aoes though.

But outside that, no.

[wispy basalt]

[fathom heron]

i know. i have one for straight arrow

[faint flare]

Something something finger joke

[faint flare]

Delete it immediately

[fathom heron]

what do you mean by that?

[faint flare]

It's shit

[cosmic juniper]

Damn. So like if I have ilvl530 and copper mines is no item lvl sync specified, I still won’t have ilv530 when I enter dungeon

[fathom heron]

why lol

it works though

[faint flare]

!faq macrogcd

[zinc orbit]

Why you shouldn't macro your GCDs

Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.

Check this video for a striking dummy comparison:
https://youtu.be/VgpUCgExvbA

[faint flare]

It's a significant dps lost

To macro skills

[twilit arch]

"it works" doesnt mean its good to use

[faint flare]

Especially gcda

[violet grove]

AoEs you have to place yourself, that you generally drop on the target, you can macro to use immeditately drop on a target instead.

[faint flare]

If yoy want a 50% dps lost

Go ahead

[twilit arch]

yes, they work but they are intentional bad by design

[violet grove]

It's basically a DPS gain.

[faint flare]

For being lazy

[twilit arch]

because the devs dont want people automating gam eplay

[fathom heron]

do you know like a website for the macro?

[faint flare]

Trying to press less buttons will always mean you do less damage

[fathom heron]

and okay ill get rid

[outer mural]

SaltedXIV has the Dragon Sight macro

I think it has the salted earth macro too

[twilit arch]

there's a couple of different faqs for macros that are generally ok to use

can just do !faq macro in #kupo-bot-spam to see all of them

[outer mural]

most of it is ally-targetted stuff or ground-targetted aoes

[granite zephyr]

does anybody know

where do i get patient necessity materials as botanist?

[cinder mortar]

in PotD once i get to floor 51, is it 51-60 that should be kept rinse repeating?

[faint flare]

Yes

what happens when i gather all aether currents in an area?

[twilit arch]

you can fly in that zone

[leaden ginkgo]

working all day on a ARR relic weapon, does ARR already has one time only steps like the Shadowbringer relics?
or is everything required and repeated for every single weapon?

i need to login with email (square enix) on their site, but then i only had id and pas, then i found out i had the same email correct but on the square enix site it doesn't even show that i own ffxiv when i got all the expansions and stuff xd

[fathom heron]

so is there any macros i should use for bard or none at all?

[twilit arch]

only thing thats honestly ok to macro for bard is warden's paean and nature's minne

[jade quartz]

Maybe a Nature’s Minne targeting macro

Paean too

If you really want to

[fathom heron]

im only level 32 anyways

[twilit arch]

to make it a bit easier to give to whoever needs it (generally tank)

[jade quartz]

Apart from that, no way

[twilit arch]

but outside of those, nothing really is worth macroing for brd

[fathom heron]

is there any macros in general that are useful?

[faint flare]

Only ones for ground target aoes or ones to target allies with buffs

[warm snow]

Shirk

[faint flare]

Macros are never the optimal way

Due to how they work

[onyx zinc]

I have one that uses hide, waits 2sec then cancels it, good to reset mudras

[fathom heron]

what are the target aoes? like what do they do

[faint flare]

Ground aoes

[twilit arch]

aoes you place on the ground with your cursor

[cinder mortar]

are leves good for leveling up an alt job?

[fathom heron]

ohh im only level 32 so bard doesnt have any yet

[warm snow]

No

Leves for combat jobs are garbage

[twilit arch]

for crafter/gatherers, but not for combat jobs @cinder mortar

[cinder mortar]

ah alright thanks

[warm snow]

Also, whoever told me that you can stay as your job for the class quest ng+ is a liar

[jade quartz]

Yes actually, sprint

!faq sprintmacro

[zinc orbit]

Sprint is nice when macro'd

Sprint won't queue like most standard actions. Give this macro a try for slightly better responsiveness:

/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/ac Sprint
/micon Sprint```

[boreal storm]

Makes sense

Remember the unicorn quest

[jade quartz]

Sprint macro is actually better than regular sprint

Slightly more responsive

[warm snow]

I know, which is why I had asked here in the first place

[fathom heron]

i'll give it a try

what are these used for?

but where do i get it, i have nothing in master recipes yet

[warm snow]

Do your job quests

[twilit arch]

its bought with yellow scrips

[hardy hatch]

npc?

[warm snow]

You'll need to buy a master recipe book for them anyways

[twilit arch]

assuming you've unlocked the scrip exchange in idyllshire, it shuld be on the scrip npcs in each city

that said you also need to do a quest in mor dhona to unlock master recipes in general

[hardy hatch]

ahh okay, TY

[heavy jewel]

how do i get shadow stalker set when Queues are an hour long each??

[twilit arch]

its from guiding star

[hardy hatch]

ye i've done that

[storm cloak]

guys I was wondering if I get the endwalker expansion does it also mean I get Stormblood and Shadowbringers when it comes out? does that mean if I would like to get the entire game I really only need to buy the starter edition, endwalker and a subscription

[twilit arch]

you cant get shadowstalker anymore @heavy jewel

[faint flare]

Yes, you'll get the other expansions in November

[warm snow]

Yes

[heavy jewel]

@twilit arch oh has a new season started yet?

[twilit arch]

yes

[heavy jewel]

how do you tell

[boreal storm]

The login says Feast season 20

[heavy jewel]

ah gotcha

[twilit arch]

the login notes it, same with patch notes and the rewards page

[heavy jewel]

is getting top 100 next to impossible for the season rewards?

[fickle radish]

if im rank 25 is the most efficient way to lvl alts from 71-80 via zadnor?

[faint flare]

Bojza or Zadnor

They're indentical xp

[fickle radish]

ah

cool thanks

[faint flare]

Tanks/healers still do dungeons

[twilit arch]

its a fair bit of work, but you also basically need to hope into feast in like the first two weeks or so

there isnt really much incentive to keep playing later into a season

so it dies out kind of quickly

[heavy jewel]

do you need to be top 100 when it ends or just reach top 100 period?

[leaden ginkgo]

hello! I'm new to the game and i'm trying to pick a race. I narrowed it down to highlander or roegadyn, which race is more relevant to the story in the grand scale of things?

[frigid willow]

is there a way to increase only the Dialogue text size for NPCs talking? i know you can do it by increasing the size of everything but i only want that 1 thing

[leaden ginkgo]

i'm trying to avoid spoilers so i don't feel comfortable with googling that

[twilit arch]

need to be top 100 when season ends

[leaden ginkgo]

if i used crysta to buy this it would be 403 right? https://i.imgur.com/OydKc2j.png

or what

[faint flare]

Yes

[lunar nexus]

“More relevant” isn’t really a metric because only the newest races have considerably less screen time, but if you mean representation in plot both are pretty equally represented

[twilit arch]

none of the races are really "relevant" to the story

you should go with what you like the look of the most

[leaden ginkgo]

how much is 1 month of sub time in crysta? @faint flare

i'm sorry but my main frame of reference is wow, which has a tendency to center the game's plot around 2-3 races

so that's good to hear!

[faint flare]

1 crysta is 1 cent

So

[leaden ginkgo]

femroe it is

[heavy wadi]

yeah no pick whatever

[leaden ginkgo]

i think a month of sub time for me is 8.99gbp

[heavy wadi]

there aren't "racial stories" in this game

[faint flare]

Then it's 899

[cinder mortar]

do some races not have hats or something?

[heavy wadi]

yes

hroth and viera can't wear most headgear

[twilit arch]

most hats dont show on viera and hrothgar

[cinder mortar]

not sure why not, fashion is like important to ffxiv

😛

[faint flare]

Because of how theyre built on a development level

[boreal storm]

Models are hard

[faint flare]

Their heads work differently

[cinder mortar]

do you think there will be a new race in new expansion?

[heavy wadi]

male viera

it's already been shown

[faint flare]

They said they won't ever bring in new races

[fossil birch]

Lol

[heavy wadi]

but yeah, no new races.

[faint flare]

Unlocking genders for existing races

Yes

But new new races no

That shit is way too much work for a 2 year Dev cycle

[cinder mortar]

yeah but with the wow refugees flooding in, they got start pumping out for new infrastructure and can afford more developers etc 😉

[lunar nexus]

lol if only it was that easy

[faint flare]

There's far more issues than that

[fossil birch]

The server stuff is probably going to be a lot of expenses at first

[lunar nexus]

people with relevant experience don’t grow on trees and the chip shortage is destroying their ability to get new servers any time soon

[boreal storm]

The game broke the day AG first streamed

[warm snow]

Weren't viera and hroth technically new races

For 14

[faint flare]

[leaden ginkgo]

what character has the best glam options, as im trying to find a glam option that easily accessible and is for crafters

[wintry trellis]

could a tank main take a look at my question in tank lounge ;-;

[warm snow]

You could just ask it here

[wintry trellis]

okay I have a question bc I see mixed info
[2:39 PM]
I am told that turning TS off and on for tank swap mechanics is a last resort
[2:39 PM]
so for example I am MT with TS on, my OT has TS on. regardless of my burst window, if I shirk and the OT provokes will I pull aggro back if my TS is on?

[faint flare]

If you shirk after they voke you won't take aggro back

Unless the OT guy is actually fucking garbage at their job

[proud willow]

If your damage is higher than theirs due to a big gear difference or skill difference, you will gradually catch back up

[faint flare]

Like undergeared garbage levels

You have 2 mins to attempt to take it back

[proud willow]

but if you're in content where tank swaps are necessary, it shouldn't really happen

[faint flare]

Until shirk is back

[wintry trellis]

My fc is telling me I'd need to turn off TS bc GNB dmg is just over the top and I'd rip it back

[faint flare]

They're bad

[proud willow]

patently untrue

[wintry trellis]

Yeah it was my understanding MT starts with it on, OT turns it on little bit later and from there it doesnt get touched

[faint flare]

Yep

[jade quartz]

OT turns it on after opener yeah

[jade quartz]

They’re dumb

[fossil birch]

Lol

[warm snow]

You shouldn't need to turn it back of unless the other tank is absolute garbage

[jade quartz]

If you have to turn it off it’s a significant failure on the part of the other tank

[proud willow]

I don't think we need to go so far as to call people garbage

[half sandal]

hi, I am super confused with Ishgard Restoration. I have now done I don't even know how many different quests in The Firmament, but enough to where I no longer have any blue quests in the entire zone. I have "Work it Harder, Make it Better" quest active; which wants me to Augment my Skysteel prototype, twice.

I just have to Open Crafting Log > Goto Special Recipies > Ishgard Restoration and do that. However, on all of my crafting classes (that are level 21-22) none of them have "Ishgard Restoration".

Not sure what quest I could be missing, and I don't even know where to locate it that quest series in the completed quest journal to show you guys.

[chrome basin]

is it possible to transfer my character to a different data center or just different servers in my data center only?

[faint flare]

Yes

[chrome basin]

mog station says home world, not sure what they mean by that

[faint flare]

To any other home world

[chrome basin]

okay

That's the one they want you to upgrade, then. it's not crafted, you have to turn in certain materials

[rose current]

whats the difference between shout and yell?

[lunar nexus]

Shout is zone wide

Yell is larger than say

[rose current]

thanks

[sharp crag]

ima lvl 50 carpenter what are the best things to sell on the market board to make gil

[half sandal]

so it's not done through the Ishgard Restoration menu like the chat dialogue says? Not sure where to go for it then, cause all it wants me to do is augment the pickaxe

[jade quartz]

Ishgardian Restoration objectives/turnins are different from Skysteel Tools

[half sandal]

Ultimately here, all I am trying to do is the Ishgard Restoration. I am trying to level my crafting classes, and Skysteel Tools is the only thing I have left that I started in the Firmament

[jade quartz]

To do Ishgardian Restoration and receive exp/Skybuilders’ Scrips, you craft (with requisite collectibility) or gather the items requested by the NPC

[proud willow]

if you're not trying to make the Skysteel/Dragonsung tools, you don't have to do the quest at all

[jade quartz]

The crafting recipes are found in your crafting log under Ishgardian Restoration

[proud willow]

you can just keep plugging away at crafter stuff to level it up

[heavy wadi]

you have to click the "level based recipe" button and then scroll down to ishgard restoration.

[jade quartz]

There is no quest

[merry bluff]

Hello. For the first stage of Eureka, what is my goal exactly? Level to 20 aether level?

[jade quartz]

Have you done the level 70 alliance raids (Ivalice)?

[merry bluff]

Don’t think so lol

[heavy wadi]

do the return to ivalice alliance raids and then there will be a quest in kugane to do the relics

[jade quartz]

Do Krile’s quests and reach level 20

[feral nebula]

Anyone knows if the drop from POTD is rly bad?

[proud willow]

Yeah, level up and also do quests from Krile whenever they're available

[jade quartz]

Then you have a lot of ground to cover, start here

[heavy wadi]

it's bad until level 150+, where it becomes 100%

[merry bluff]

Ok ty

[buoyant cedar]

Thank you so much!

[wintry trellis]

okay more on the tanking question. is shirk/voke just for tank swaps or tank busters?

[jade quartz]

!quest dramatis personae

[feral nebula]

oof, 5 delubrum it is then

[heavy wadi]

it's very inefficient to do potd for that step now, since DR gives so many per run while potd gives 1 per 10 floors.

[jade quartz]

For tank swaps yes

[merry bluff]

Ty

[jade quartz]

Provoke can also be used to grab mobs that are far away in dungeons but is primarily for tank swaps

[leaden ginkgo]

what lvl can u do glamour quest

[merry bluff]

Ty

[leaden ginkgo]

can I dodge aoe attacks if I time it correctly with a dragoon jump

[surreal flare]

when do u get dragoon armor

45 or 50

[wintry trellis]

how long does shirk last ?

[jade quartz]

15

[boreal storm]

Both

[leaden ginkgo]

where is it?

[jade quartz]

It doesn’t have a duration

[proud willow]

nope, not in this game anyway

[wintry chasm]

Vesper's Bay in Western Thanalan @leaden ginkgo

[jade quartz]

Shirk transfers a chunk of your aggro to the player you target

Instantaneously

[wintry trellis]

so its impossible to pull back unless bad

[patent citrus]

what content are you doing?

[wintry trellis]

e9s

[patent citrus]

are you ST/MT?

[jade quartz]

You should not have a problem with accidentally stealing aggro back from cotank after the two of you have used provoke and shirk properly

[heavy wadi]

^

[jade quartz]

If you are taking aggro back accidentally then the other tank has a problem

Either he’s not waiting until after you provoke to shirk you

Or he’s EXTREMELY undergeared

Or he’s failing extremely badly at doing his dps rotation

[patent citrus]

just turn off TS and turn on after your first no mercy ended

[jade quartz]

Or he turned his tank stance off

[patent citrus]

and then voke when she's casting TB

if that's what your group is doing

[wintry trellis]

Yeah idk whats up. I've done all content via this method

[jade quartz]

My first guess would be the other tank is shirking you too early

[wintry trellis]

now im being told that

I have to turn off TS

[jade quartz]

You shouldn’t

[patent citrus]

when?

[main pelican]

How do i find s dungeon group for new players? Like for actually trying to learn the dungeon or my role?

[jade quartz]

Problem lies with the other tank

[wintry trellis]

for tank swaps

[patent citrus]

hmm you have to turn on TS if you want to swap

[jade quartz]

Sounds like other tank doesn’t know how to shirk yeah

[patent citrus]

or else you won't catch enough enmity

[jade quartz]

Or wait

You’re the one taking aggro

[wintry trellis]

yeah so both are on and for the tank swap, they provoke I shirk

[jade quartz]

That would mean you’re shirking too early

[wintry trellis]

tank swap done no problem

nah I havent done this yet

with this static

theyre just telling me to do something Im not used to at all

[jade quartz]

Ok then the co-tank is just not pulling their weight

[leaden ginkgo]

where is it?

[patent citrus]

happens

[jade quartz]

Are they undergeared?

[patent citrus]

if you don't want to change, don't change static

[wintry trellis]

theyre 520 even Im 516

[patent citrus]

you are dealing with different people

[proud willow]

Enmity mechanics aside, this is a thing where you'll have to decide whether it's worth fighting the static or finding a new group, if they really really want you to do it their way

[wintry trellis]

theyre playing with pally im gnb

[wintry chasm]

It'd be that red checkmark one, same NPC anyway @leaden ginkgo

[jade quartz]

Ooooook

I would drop this static

[patent citrus]

why they? there's only 1 co-tank

[jade quartz]

Big red flag

[wintry trellis]

no yeah

[leaden ginkgo]

hmm i cant do it, i need to be disciple of the hand lvl 15... wth is that

[jade quartz]

[wintry trellis]

only the 1 tank is playing pally

[boreal storm]

Crafter

[jade quartz]

Bruh

[patent citrus]

I'm a bit confused sorry

[wintry trellis]

but theres a non tank player putting their input in

[wintry chasm]

That's to make glamour prisms, you've probably already done the glamour quest then so you can apply them

[heavy wadi]

[wintry trellis]

so gnb 516 (me) Pally 520 (ot)

[patent citrus]

👀

Ooo

[jade quartz]

Some people use they/them pronouns, and they/them can also be a polite pronoun to use when you’re not sure of someone’s pronouns.

[patent citrus]

Ohhh

[jade quartz]

Singular they.

[wintry trellis]

yeah idk the whole pronoun thing so I just use whatever isnt offensive

[cursive gull]

for weekly/daily hunt am i supposed to run around the whole map looking for a mob? im looking for a gatling but cant find it

[patent citrus]

Ok ok I get it

[leaden ginkgo]

is it this?

[heavy wadi]

I'd just leave that static, sounds sus

[proud willow]

for the weekly, you'll get a message in the chat box when you're close to it

[heavy wadi]

seems like the other tank is doing something wrong, not you, and the fact they're blaming you is a red flag.

[boreal storm]

That’s to dye

[jade quartz]

That’s to unlock dyeing, you should complete it also

!faq glamour

[zinc orbit]

Glamour FAQ

'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'

Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.

'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'

Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.

[wintry trellis]

its healer putting their input in

[cursive gull]

any idea how close i have to be?

[wintry trellis]

we havent even gone in yet and this is gonna be the 3rd time me and this tank worked together. Its gone pretty well for us

[patent citrus]

Yeah if you are MT just keep TS on since the beginning haha

[faint flare]

If you are taking aggro with stance on then it's a bigger red flag in terms of performance

[little swift]

Regretfully if your paladin loses aggro after the swap then its because their rotation sucks

[proud willow]

relatively close, like about the distance needed to target it

[faint flare]

And there's bigger issues to deal with

[patent citrus]

Wait till they provoke and then you shirk

[leaden ginkgo]

I don't have any ongoing quests right now other than color your world for western thanalan...

[cursive gull]

sadge, thank you!

[jade quartz]

I can’t imagine how they are losing aggro honestly

They’d have to be not hitting buttons

[proud willow]

It sounds like they're not. This is an instruction being given to the OT by the healer before they've even done the fight

[jade quartz]

Serious red flag

[proud willow]

saying "you need to do the tank swap this way or else it won't work"

[jade quartz]

Oh

Then the healer is ignorant

[wintry trellis]

that is correct

healer giving input

not letting tanks talk about it or try the "correct" method

[jade quartz]

Inform that healer that they are mistaken

If they are making an issue of it then drop them

[wintry trellis]

I have

[faint flare]

And then ignore them

Or leave

[wintry trellis]

and they are saying you guys are wrong bc at e11 and 12 turning off TS is a need

and going further with normal content it will also be a need

[faint flare]

Lol

[jade quartz]

If healer is ignorant of that then it’s a red flag about their knowledge of the game and therefore their abilities

[faint flare]

Trash tier healer

[jade quartz]

Yeah they are wrong

[heavy wadi]

that healer doesn't know what they're talking about

definitely uh

go find a new static

[wintry trellis]

But Im with yall on this one. Every video, every tank guide, #1 tank, you guys are saying the exact opposite of him

[heavy wadi]

for your own mental health

[proud willow]

They're incorrect but it's one of those "pick your fights" things. There are people who would 100% fight the healer and never ever back down on this, and there are people will push the one keyboard button that'll make them happy

[jade quartz]

Ignore idiots

[heavy wadi]

nah, this is a matter of developing bad habits

[proud willow]

there are incorrect people everywhere

the internet, for example :p

you can correct all of them or you can enjoy life

[patent citrus]

You shouldn't need to tell each other how to play their class.. It's a red flag..

especially in a static..

or is it just I'm weird?

I wouldn't tell my Co-tank how to play since It just lack of trust lol

[wintry trellis]

I mean I've done all content til now with randoms and thats how its been done

or forced tank swap via death

I've never even heard of swapping TS off til now

[leaden ginkgo]

https://i.imgur.com/HMNzgAd.png why cant i buy this with crysta??

[neon holly]

where do I find the first part of the chain quest to unlock the shadowbringer raids? This website says the quest that unlock it are in kholusia but I don't see any blue quest on the map

[leaden ginkgo]

i thought heavensward had more voice acting, seems the entire dravanian plot has none

[jade quartz]

8man raids or 24man

[proud willow]

the very first quest for Eden raid should be in Crystarium IIRC

[jade quartz]

It does and it does

[heavy wadi]

did you turn the voice volume all the way down?

it adjusts cutscene voice acting, not just the voices of other players

[patent citrus]

Is it common in NA server that they shout to chat?

[heavy wadi]

in like, zadnor or bozja? yeah

[leaden ginkgo]

Can I get some help with something

[patent citrus]

in limsa/gridania/uldah

[heavy wadi]

people do it everywhere

[faint flare]

Shout is the zone chat

So

[patent citrus]

ok

[heavy wadi]

ask away

[raven sage]

Might need to clear your cache and make sure you go to the store directly through a browser

[leaden ginkgo]

How do I move my beast bar on ps4

[patent citrus]

same

hudlayout

system -> hudlayout

[leaden ginkgo]

It's not letting me actually move it

I'm in hudlayout

[jade quartz]

What do you mean beast bar

[patent citrus]

current ui element -> beast gauge

[leaden ginkgo]

i did both

[jade quartz]

Oh war gauge

[patent citrus]

and then press left/right dpad

[leaden ginkgo]

works fine on a different browser tho

which is weird

I selected that

[raven sage]

Oh i said cache

I meant cookies

You probably had none on that one

[leaden ginkgo]

That's just moving my cursor

[dusty shard]

what is the max amount of attribute point for grand company squadron ?

current i have 280 max, how do I incease it

[leaden ginkgo]

I GOT IT

Thanks guys

[little swift]

Untrue shirk is available for every swap this tier. And you don't even really use it for p2 o1f 12s

[patent citrus]

sorry couldn't help you more than that, but glad you could solve it

[leaden ginkgo]

how do you cook when you equip skillet?

[unique niche]

how would i go about doing big pulls in dungeons as a tank? do i pull a group then run and pull another or do i pull wait a bit then go ahead?

[leaden ginkgo]

What does the beast gauge even mean btw

[tidal gull]

Is there any point to play as CNJ rather than WHM after you unlock it?

[faint flare]

Do 1-2 aoes per pack then run to the next

[faint flare]

No

[tidal gull]

Thanks

[dusty shard]

can I increase the max amount of squadron attribute from 280 ?
or is 280 the max amount of attribute point

[raven sage]

You should pull everything you intend to tank as soon as possible. if you make people stop in the middle of their aoe rotations to move, you're wasting dps

[fickle radish]

hey, if

*am i able to enter any ce if im in a different zone in zadnor

[patent citrus]

yeah, you can
