in zadnor, should i be spending clusters to get priority CE?
what time?
ok
No it has to go through the system
Can take up to like a day if it's busy
Could you help me please? I'm new here. I created a character and didn't go with a Ring of Fortune from the first cutscene. I got another one instead. Can I create another character, get Ring of Fortune for him and transfer it to my main?
what should I use my allegory tomestones on? I'm capping and I don't think i've ever used it
Do u really wanna go such great lengths for a ring which won't do anything in the long run
!item ring of fortune
It doesn’t even look cool
That's a default copper ring ring with a fancy name and shit stats...
Fuggedaboutit

Faloop or a hunting discord
If you snipe arr and hw s ranks everyone will think you're an ass hole though
wew, i killed plenty
Whats wuickest way to lvl 50? I am currently 20 as marauder and doing fates and levs. I did main story to 50 already am in heavensward but my other class got boring. How to 50 asap?

I'm just learning things about tradable and untradable items 😉
@sour nymph Battle leves are GARBAGE
And it's tradable, yep?
What is there to learn
Yes
Y tho
Shit exp for the effort involved
Some items can be traded, others can’t
If its untradeable it'll have a big UNTRADEABLE at the top of the item description
Do roulettes and whatever the highest dungeon u can access
Could you tell me please what does Market Prohibited mean then?
Can’t market board it
That it can't be sold to vendors
Can be sold to vendors just not mb iirc
So whats attack plan homie?

Read the guide linked
The guide I sent you like 3 minutes ago and you've been ignoring this entire time...
how do increase my rank in the storm company?
Promote, talk to personnel officer

Pvp is side content

Gear
More stuff to buy
Glamour, minions, mounts
More seals
Barding
what do you get from the jump and runs at the casino?
i see lvl 80 lieutenants is it that hard to climb
Promotions increase your seal cap
No
ic ic red boys unite
2nd Lieutenant is just promoting from personnel officer and doing GC hunting log
Coins?
aight so it wont take weeks?
or months?
Unless you ignore it for that amount of time
does it take a while to level your squad up so you can bring them nto dungeons?
just got my first collectible gather node, are they always unspoiled?
I've seen some people using a phone in game, what's that? 
Is there an auto uncheck all Duty Finder boxes after completing a Duty?
it may be msq locked
yes, it should be at the bottom

automatically? not manual.
No

Compared to RDM, is SMN easy? My main job as dps is MNK and hoping to do a caster, but getting high DPS in RDM is pretty difficult (not mentioning BLM, which is impossible for me)
I personally like jobs where you can move a lot
compared to rdm smn is the polar opposite
rdm is one of the rotationally easier jobs in the game at its core
smn is one of the harder
Then I might practice rdm then. I can move for 1/2 of the time, but frequently my GCD stops because my attack gets canceled after moving
well, or so it is generally considered. ymmv. i can't speak for the difficulty of smn as I main it and know it backwards
Learn your slidecast windows
i was browsing the wiki and found anima weapons, are those still good ?
glam (: ?
can I change ingame volume on hotkey?
Not useful in battle but they look cute so u glam ur better weapon to look like them
how do you get new recruits for the squadron?
Weekly challenges
weeklt
what are those
how can i get them is the question, because thats what i wanted to do, but idk where azys is and so on
hey guys, how long does it take to get shb relic
Look into your Challenge Log. And so that stuff. Like craft 10 HQ items or Play 5 minigames in Casino etc
Is the rogue/ninja class hard to play? Compared to other classes?
@wispy finch It's not quick process. couple weeks of grinding. all uo to your own pace though.
if i play like 4 hours per day?
How fast Bozja leveling is compared to deep dungeons?
it's only 71-80
it's about the same, if not faster
you should not be using deep dungeons to level 71-80.
Where do I trade in Precision Alexander items? Google says Sabina but I don't see the option
4 hrs a day is about what I did. took me a few weeks.@wispy finch
: 0
i mean i guess its still worth hopefully
@lunar bear wait if im tryna grind for ast weapon, i can switch to a lower levelled class?
or no
@wispy finch yes, just have the quest active for whatever weapon youre going for. you can use any job as long as the quests is active
o ok ty ty
It was the NPC on the left where you get your 270 tome gear
Don't remember the name
I see it now. thanks
is there a way to make auto-translate easier to use?
Looking For Group
the o/ and / has the same effect
I hate dead levels between deep dungeons and bozja
Anyone know how Beast Tribe Allowances work? I'm about to hit rank 3 on Sylphs, but if I do I get another set of 3 to do, thing is, I'm out of total allowances. Will I be able to pick those 3 up or maybe get 6 after reset? Or should I just not hand in before reset and do it afterwards?
do one-time party member bonus apply on first time player or first-time using that class?
Player
You can do 12 beast quests total each day
I just got my first Relic weapon ever (first stage too), can I "glamourise" this weapon? will it affect my quests?
Yes you can
Right, so I'm at the step of anima weapon quest where I need to charge it, I've been told that farming a9s unsynched is best way of doing it. How long does single a9s run take in group more or less? Trying to assess how long it'll take me
I know that, but if I go up a rank, I always get 3 new ones for a specific beast tribe. But since I can't do them, will that be "wasted"? Maybe I should wait with handing in the 2 I have now as comlpeted until after reset, when I get 3 more, then hand in, hit rank and get another 3, right?
Wasted
Can you buy essences for Bozja/Zandor?
You can't be holding beast tribe quests when reset happens or your allowance won't reset
You can buy fragments yes
Well fuck, that sucks considering how annoying these are to level up.
What fragments do you need?
So from the auction board right?
Market yes
Okay, cool.
If you’re banking on those extra quests from rank up, just make sure to not use all your allowances
if you know you gonna level up reputation, stop doing 1 tribe and use them for the level up bonus
I've been trying to catch up several so hadn't kept track. The ARR ones are a special kinda stupid.
At any rate, I'm not starting the next Blue Quest until after reset. Question is, Can I do it first and then have 6 quests available or do I need to finish 3, do blue and then get 3 more?
Presuming it's all after reset
It’s separate quest givers in ARR so
take all 3 allowance of the day, do the blue cus the bonus 3 is not accessible if any allowance of that day for that beast tribe has not been claimed
Ah I see, thanks. What I was afraid of. Might as well even if blue unlocks better EXP quests.
Is there any sort of guide for which essences and abilities to use for each role in Boz/Zad?
basically tribe A will rank up tomorrow, save 6 allowances for them
as bonus is wasted without allowance
Stuff that increases your damage, nothing rlse
Martialist/bloodsucker for tanks, Skirmisher for DPS, Aetherweaver or Profane for healers
Are there any good abilities that don't have only a few charges?
Guess I won't bother with them. Abilities with only like 10 charges seem useless.
They arent
Not trying to set some sort of speedun record.
They're how you triple your dps
okay so currently I'm at Acting The Part but I'm barely close to 46
do I accept the msq anyways?
what happens if I want to complete it?
you just can't complete until you're 46
ah okay
Hit up your hunting log or a roulette/dungeon real quick and get the extra bump.
guess I'll have to go level up first
is it free to transfer characters from aether to a different data server?
i was thinking of moving over to crystal
MSQ is your best friend forever, why you even ask to accept it or not
Only to crystal cause it's preferred
oh nice
now i just need to find an fc...
is there somewhere that shows the best fate areas for each level?
google cus it faster than asking moogle
and one thing, if you level alt, just use your best job to do 95% of progress then swap back to finish cus killing mob yield non-exist exp as compared to fates completion (not work with boss fates though)
what ilvl is recommended to start savage raid?
510 for Eden promise
But with easy it is to get 520 with augmented exarchic and nier gear you can grab that but it's for leniency
ty
exarchic gear only available from market/crafting, right ?
Yes, pretty cheap these days
Or just farm normal mode for a non market way
Then just get nier gear from tower
i did the saucer cactus gate event. i only got 3200 and i was fast. is that normal?
my friend told me he got 8k from one run

Should I go out of my way to find all aether currents in the snow area in HW?
All the aether currents are on the story path
You barely go out of your way
(except the lochs cause we don't speak about that place)
But yes you should get flying
Some stuff is locked behind it
And if you don't do it now you'll be one of the whiners who complain cause theu didn't do it while they were there the first time
just hotkey your aether compass and ingrain tapping it into your muscle memory
if a current isn't far, just toss on autorun and grab a drink
Aight. I'll do that
Occasionally whack any nearby enemies
Hi, I'm a Bard lv60 (Heavensward finished) and I want to up my alt Machinist (currently lv47) to lv60 as well
What would be the fastest way to level up 50->60 ?
I'm assuming this is leap of faith, it's not time based just how many cactuses you pick up
either potd or roulettes > highest level dungeon (not 50 dungeons)
is it possible to get 8000 points from it?
i think my friend is 🧢
With mgp boosts
uhh, I think it would've been possible during the event
How much of a pain is it to get the ARR Relic Weapons nowadays? Apparently they're usually really hard to get on release but get patched to be easier later.
idk if it's doable now
they're still probably the worst, honestly
What kind of stuff do you have to do for them haha
much easier than they used to be, but.. they used to be hellish nightmares.
Yeah I doubt it
I need to level from 47 to 49 to be able to continue with the main story quests. What is the fastest way to do this? Just duty roulette?
~1m gil, 16? real dungeon runs, 80000 seals, some poetics, and like 50? fates
plus a bunch of unsync satasha
I don't remember exactly.
there's a level 47 dungeon that I ran like twice and that did it for me
@lean echo do you remember the name?
Yeah unlock aurum vale at vesper bay
ok thanks
#1 rule of aurum vale at this point is: hug the left wall in room 1.
everything else is as easy as any other dungeon.
eat fruit if you have 2-3 stacks
throwback to my tank at 7 stanks
how do i earn points with triple triard? are there daily quests?
where's the recent event location
Uldah
they only giving 32 points
coordinates?
i bought ffxiv on steam and my subscription is running out, if i buy a new one does that mean i get the cloud advent outfit or do i get that after the second time of buying a month?
You’ll see it
its the 60 days reward right
I am lvl 10 with blue mage, but the msq hud doesnt tell me i have a job quest. why?
Blue mage is special
so i have to sign in on 60 different days?
how do i check how much i have done already
So job quests dont get shown?
Pretty sure they do, but you also need a specific spell learned to actually do the quest
i do have the specific spell learned
does quick synthesis give the same xp as synthesize?
Quick question around heaven on high, if i want to get the Jeudi mount, can i complete floor 100 with a matched party or does it have to be solo?
mathematically yes, but no
cus manually raising quality give you more exp than mere craft with no quality
no u just gotta buy 60 days of playtime/ been 60 days subbed
so the time you get with steam when you buy it counts or not?
Which Melee DPS has the lowest gcd?
is limit break bar shared by your party in the feast?
Monk
Pvp limit breaks are personal
So the ishgard restoration thing is going away?
No
The leaderboards are done but you can still do it
unreal xd
Got some bad Info thats why I asked. I e been putting with crafting to get everything to level 20
is there a way to see the cost of Stormblood and Shadowbringers? i am thinking of coming back after 6 years and looks like i don't have these 2 xpacs. is there any way to bundle them for a lower cost?
I bought endwalker without logging on my account, what do i do?
how do i link the purchase to my acc
They bundle old expansions into the new one
Shadowbringers gives you stormblood
It’s 40 bucks
And endwalker will give you stormblood and shadowbringers in November
so i would only need to buy shadowbringers?!
The price never changes
Anyone who plays on ps5 with mouse? I have a,Logitech mouse but sensitivity is too low.
To get stormblood Yes, provided you own the game
yes on this old account i own the game plus first xpac.
is there any CE/Skirmish in Bozja/Zadnor that counts as "undead", aside from the phantom in DR?
Think the doom girl in Zadnor zone 1 does
is there still a bunch i could do while only owning heavensward maybe?
about 300 hours
give or take how much you like weapon grinds
so i'm trying to farm megalocrab leg, how does farming work in this game? is there anything i can equip that might give me a chance to double loot it? or have a higher chance to get x item? or is it simply kill kill kill?
!faq retainers
What is a retainer?
A retainer is a private NPC that will act as a personal bank for the player, holding up to 175 different items, that can be summoned to any of the Summoning Bells around the world. Retainers also act as your means to sell on the Market Board.
How to unlock a retainer
First, you must complete the quest The Scions of the Seventh Dawn then go to speak to any of the Retainer Vocates located in the market district of any of the major cities.
What are Retainer Ventures?
Ventures are the means to send out your retainers on missions to bring back items for you and can be unlocked by completing the quest 'An Ill-conceived Venture' (Ul’Dahn), (Gridania), (Limsa Lominsa)
these are how you farm mob drops
How do I report bots?
actually killing mobs yourself causes the drop rate to lower
system menu > support desk iirc
but most end up getting banned even if you dont report
I mean I've seen these guys bot around for the past 5 months
same names
but thanks
can I solo Halatali at lvl 45?
why does the weapo have a red X in the glamour dresser?
can't be used by your current job/class
Too high a level glam or class restrictions
you're either not on the right job or too low lvl to use this as a glamour
or, correctly, the item you are wearing is worse than the item you're trying to glamour
he's only gonna bring back 10 tho? how do i make him bring back more? http://puu.sh/I7Fct/7a27fd9954.jpg
level 80, it's a DRG weapon i think
id say prolly around lvl 50 with ironworks
wait 40 more mins
pretty sure they are super cheap on the mb
well either you are not currently on drg when you took that image, or the item you are glamouring is higher ilvl than what you are trying to glamour it ONTO
I'm asking if I can at lvl 45
I'm on DRG lvl 80
And is your weapon lv80
and the weapon you currently have equipped is?
there you go.
you can try if you want
Just use the better weapon at that point
I'm a bard btw
hard 'unlikely' on that
!reset
23 hours, 21 minutes, 44 seconds
4 hours, 21 minutes, 44 seconds
16 hours, 21 minutes, 44 seconds
16 hours, 21 minutes, 44 seconds
5 days, 10 hours, 21 minutes, 44 seconds
5 days, 4 hours, 21 minutes, 44 seconds
4 days, 21 hours, 21 minutes, 44 seconds
80 days, 16 hours, 21 minutes, 44 seconds
Can I see server time somehow without logging in?
#kupo-bot-spam
Thansk mate, anything for server time?
is it possible to make fairy auto-heal a specific target?
no
embrace targets, with priority, you and then the lowest health person
it's fine because past a very low level embrace does flat nothing
Can I cheat the sightseeing log by changing my pc time? or is it based on real time?
do the mount effects do anything other than... well effects? just got a drake today
Can't cheat, gotta wait.
derp just saw it lol
Damn
It's Server Time
many other mounts have such effects
They're a pain but only the ARR and Heavensward IIRC are time and weather locked, the rest just location
so i have 1.8M gil
but i don't really know what to spend them on
I don't care about housing
any suggestions?
glamour?
i heard you should do every quest with a Plus next to it is that true ?
raid food?
they unlock stuff, yes

maybe i could use them to get further into my relic weapon grind
seems like a waste tho
i mean, you said yourself you got no other use
i'm generally always focused more on spending resources for useful stuff
rather than cosmethics
at least early on
Half the relics don’t even have stuff to buy pretty sure
i heard buying mats to powerlevel crafters is expensive
but i don't plan on leveling crafters for now
yeah that's where i'm at right now
primal drops cost a shitload though
honestly i also find myself with more gil than i know what to do with commonly
i tend to buy garuda, levi and ramuh drops because it gets it done with
mind you i also have an occasional need to drop 200k on a stack of pots or food, so
is that cheaper than DoH mats?
So if I buy shadowed bro get complete edition
what does 'log' mean on PF?
hmm ok, what is the amount of money you wouldn't go under when burning money like this? 3-400K?
Depends on the context, could mean books from omega raids/alexander but more likely means relating to FFLogs
alternate meaning would be parse parties
e9s to be specific
yeah, parse parties
do i unlock deep dungeons from this quest ?
A deep dungeon
they aren't playing for loot, they're playing for perfect run
to upload online
strats and mindsets will likely vary
i.e., if you are not also interested in uptime strats and attempting to play perfectly, this party does not want you
only palace of the dead
the other deep dungeon is unlocked way later in stormblood
and you need to reach at least floor 50 in palace of the dead to unlock the other deep dungeon too
what DoH job best compliments miner?
All
Which should I start leveling giving my eb is at lvl 60 and sitting on mats
They said datacenter visit is just going to be within your own region right? Like an NA player cant visit EU worlds?
any way to make sure "Quick Gathering" is defaulted to on?
ok thanks
is the rathalos mount in the free trial?
Nop
It's post stormblood so
what are all the mounts i can get while on free trial?
Horses, Birds, Alex Savage mounts
Arr/HW extremes mounts...ones from Ishgard restoration... Blue mage morbol..
Ones from achievement certs
there's quite a bit of mounts
Savage mounts
There's honestly too many to list for a discord message
Gold saucer, beast tribes
Why you list the categories
i just transferred to diabolos and want to open the free company interface but it says it's unavailable at this time. is it because i just transferred?
why is dreadwyrm replica gear so expensive?
You don’t have an FC
because it's in high demand for glam
can't you just unsynch those raids
it's crafted gear
ohhh. how do i apply to an fc ig anyway?
Clearly not
Ask someone from that fc
Even unsynced Turn 4 is what, 5 minutes long or something?
Unless you’re suckering them in with poetics
before this big boom in players coils was 100% dead
just got to holminster switch, they tried mentioning doing the duty with npcs instead of other people. How is that? Is it worth trying?
I'd do it the first time, trust npcs do all of the mechs correctly and they have unique dialogue
like how slower?
Theu always clear in 30nins
30 min
sounds like its worth a shot
Trusts have dialogue and you don't need queue times, and you get all the loot. However, they do kinda shit damage and have too bad an AI to do aoe damage
So pulls are sloooooooow
Trusts also don't aoe
im physical ranged so aoe isnt a problem
And Alisae wastes LB
Least she uses it more than Dfers
you'll notice if the other dps and healer don't, believe you me
how do i get back into novice chat i just autoleft
i noticed when i couldnt type anything anymore
when you get invited
ask a mentor in game to invite you
You probably lost your sprout
probably lost sprout
If you just hit Shadowbringers, you got auto-removed cause not a sprout anymore
im in oceanfishing atm
if you got autoleft because you lost your sprout status, you gotta mentor status to get back in
it's not hard to get trade mentor and get back in
ah ok i get to mentor then
Or novice network somehow hit the sprout cap
Does the Dancer job get access to special dance emotes?
No
is fish still useless
Ocean fish are
well i do it for lvling
which you can put in tanks
is there a way to expand the size of the fitting room?
would it be faster at this point doing the rest of them via raids rather than waiting for ces in zadnor
question about sch: when do i use sacred soil? Can i just pop it on the tank during boss fights or big pulls?
Probably
I need help with act, I can't get the overlay to appear over the ffxiv window
You need quite a lot of incoming damage from mobs to make soil outvalue Lustrate or excog - it's typically better used to mitigate raidwide damage, before its upgrade trait at 78
can i get to ishgard as a free trial player?
yes
so i got the preorder 30+ exp earrings, do they work in potd?
ah alright so it's better to do dungeons for lvling right?
Yeah
alrighty tnx
Desperately need help doing thornmarxh extreme
Randos too brain dead to listen to what u have to do
Always party finder extremes
trust seems to work better if i forcibly pull two trash packs
have you try reload overlay? and tick both enable and show overlay
still blowing the npcs out of the water on bosses
Oh, the overlay appears, it is just that it goes under ffxiv window
And vice versa
what’s the ideal solo leveling strat for BLU 60-70? also what about gear mid-60s when the poetic gear is gonna start really feeling slow…
Let me reload it
to level BLU, get a friend
oh...
uhh slowly kill whatever overworld mob thats at least 3 levels above you
i guess
it can goes into hidden if you stop using it (dealing damage for a while) just hit something to make it reappear
raids imo
does memphina’s earring work for blu?
what is this golden bow called?^^ right in the beginning
That'll be $50k in tuition please

#FFXIV
FINAL FANTASY XI...
gathering collectables that come from 'regular' nodes are only good for aetheric destruction thingie, right?
!iglam Ultimate Dreadwyrm Longbow
anything. dummy, mob
Do you have an overlay on?
are all mounts run at the same speed?
Then no, it still goes under ffxiv window
yeah
and then the question is do you choose preset?
its from bahamut ultimate
all mounts run at the same speed
I choose Kagero preset
if it still not showing, remove it and redownload
Nono, you got me wrong
I see I guess it is just my imagination that my Behemoth mount feels slower than my chocobo then,
thanks
Here is the thing: overlay both appears and show (and also works), but when I open ffxiv, it disappears (hidden behind ffxiv window)
if I want to macro waste not 2, should I use the number 2 or II
that's because the behemoth mount is bigger thus its walk animation is slower but it covers the same distance due to its size
II if it's II
2 if it's 2
ok thx
Okay so I made a party finder how long will it take to get people
that makes sense, thankls
entirely random based on who's on and what activity
Tl:dr my overlay doesn't overlay the game
you running act as admin?
Yeah
Well does anyone want to help me with thronmarch extreme
Cus it’s a nightmare with randos
are you running the game in borderless or fullscreen?
Is it possible to set the on screen units of measurement to normal units?
So whenever something mentions Yalms it just says it in meters?
Yeah but because of the mechanics in the extreme fight no one ever listens and it always ends with the Insta kill
I see
don't think so
I was running fullscreen cause the game was losing fps on borderless
ty very much!
So there is no way to make act work in fullscreen?
hello everyone, are there any housing discord server around ? i can't seem to find any for some reason
i need some tips for advanced housing
where can i get some quick exp at lvl76 i need like 2.3m exp
what does cairn of return from the palace of the dead do ?
are fates good
the healer lb3 when it rezes everyone do they all get weakness or is that without weakness?
Without
hawt
is there any point in using titan egi?
Seems like garuda egi is best for trash packs while ifrit egi is best for boss battles
prob a use for titan egi is when you need a shield to keep you alive while u res healer or something
idk
Burst aoe optimisation and survival
Mountain buster does more upfront damage than Slipstream
For the Crystal Sand in the Anima relic
So if they die super quick then Titan is better than garuda
I have Blue Scrip Tokens, but the Trade button doesnt work
Titan is used in Ultima Ultimate to burst down the plumes
Am I doing something wrong

Fate or beast tribe quests.

Aetheryte in the enclave
To port over to gangos

so enclave > ferry docks?
is there a way to initiate crafting through macro ?
Aethernet
No
oh it's in the aethernet, i had no idea, ty xD
oh thats sad then
is patch 5.55 really the end? it only had 3 quests? will they release a small patch right before Endwalker with a little bit more story or is this really all of it, before Endwalker?
That's it, same as every other x.55
mm i thought we'd get .56 or something
The actual content was in x.5
X.55 is the last proper content patch
x.55 is pretty much only msq
How much does Xlauncher strain the computer? My current laptop, hardly a gaming one, can barely handle xiv as it is.
It won't help that
mmm OK, i guess I'm finally caught up, then. Will have to wait until Endwalker for more story
Early access is November 19th
do glamours work like wow transmog or do are they like permanent no matter what you wear not associated to the items
!faq glamour
'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.
so you need a glamour prism per item, that is fine. I probably wont bother until i get something i'll use for a while
"What is the Glamour Dresser?"
The Glamour Dresser allows you to glamour an entire set of equipment at once when in a city or town. You can find the dresser in your inn room at any of the Adventurer's guilds.
"How do I use it?"
In order to use the Glamour Dresser you need to first put the items you want to use for glamour inside of it. This requires a one-time cost of one Glamour Prism per item. You're able to safely take out the items, but you'll need to pay another Glamour Prism to put it back into the Dresser. After you have put in the glamour items you want to use for your set you'll want to click on "Edit Glamour Plates".
When the plate window opens up you can select the stored glamours you have onto the slots of the plate to create the set you desire. Once you're satisfied with your glamour click on "Save". You can now apply your Glamour Plate by accessing the Character menu, clicking the Glamour Plate button, and choosing the Plate that you have made.
i just bought a new mount in from the online store, i've been waiting for 30 mins and it still hasn't come in the post yet, am i doing something wrong?
No
It take timr
30mins is nothing
If shits bad it can take days
You were told this
alright, thanks for the info
do squadrons only work for dungeons up to level 60?
When you checked out
Does interject do anything? I can't interrupt anyone
!faq interrupt
so the squadrons only go to 60 and the trusts start at 71. Looks like there is a hole in that content where there is no way of doing dungeons with AI?
You can do Heaven-on-High
is there a group chat/place where you can find people to do Urth's Fount with? trying to get the dark divinity set
but que times are so long and know one joins my party in party finder
queue as a healer? 😉
Just solo it at 80
Odin is classed as a extreme so no sane people que for it
yes i have accepted all languages
and im a new player. i currently play only 1 class and im now lvl 54. I want to get the set before i start heavensward. I dont want to lvl up to 80 or lvl up new healer class. im 2 lazy for that xd
but if it takes this long, i guess ill have to suffer through it
Find someone that is 80 to help you with it
Trying to do it normally will take too much time
Is it better to stack damage buffs or to space them out? (in context of bozja actions)
alright so i've been doing the right thing
How do I use aether compass?
When can I look up direction to nearest
you can search google for all overworld aether location
It gives you direction and distance to the nearest current
oh found it thanks
if the compass is too hard to understand
So just hotkey it and spam it
I just thought that it becomes a passive, like some other quest rewards did
Reaper and sage will start at 70?
Yes
Just base 5.0 or everything 5.0 to 5.5?
Both pls if u know
Do you need to collect all aether currents in a zone in order to be able to fly?
yes
they're generally pretty close to where the MSQ goes though (apart from a few exceptions)
what is this division then?
where do I see my current level of desynth?
did cure 3 on whm used to have a hot effect
Not sure for 5.0 to 5.5 but on my alt where I watch all cutscenes think it took me roughly 7-8 hours (but I already knew where to go for all quests and where quest items were)
Why is the paladin storyline so bad
7-8 for base 5.0
Not that I remember
The ones above are collected from MSQ & 4 quests. The 10 other ones are aether currents
Ty
Quest currents
hey im plying free trial on steam, what should i buy if i want to have everything ? shadowbringers + endwalker ?
Atm complete edition plus endwalket
Or if you want to wait just endwalker but you dont get the rest till endwalker comes out
i dont have complete edition on steam tho
only shows endwalker and shadowbringers and realm reborn
Shadowbringers then think it has everything on steam
And get endwalker by itself
Or if your fine waiting till November just get endwalker
You’d need to buy the ‘base’ game as well, you can’t just buy shadowbringers from trial
Oh right steam is so confusing for this game
That’s for everything not steam
Where do i find Pure White Dye?
You don’t
Complete edition non steam comes with everything
hi there, looking for some help trying to figure out a song name 🙂
quick ventures, marketboard
Which is different from buying shadowbringers from trial
@slate arrow How do i go about doing ventures?
!faq retainers
What is a retainer?
A retainer is a private NPC that will act as a personal bank for the player, holding up to 175 different items, that can be summoned to any of the Summoning Bells around the world. Retainers also act as your means to sell on the Market Board.
How to unlock a retainer
First, you must complete the quest The Scions of the Seventh Dawn then go to speak to any of the Retainer Vocates located in the market district of any of the major cities.
What are Retainer Ventures?
Ventures are the means to send out your retainers on missions to bring back items for you and can be unlocked by completing the quest 'An Ill-conceived Venture' (Ul’Dahn), (Gridania), (Limsa Lominsa)
You can’t buy shadowbringers from trial
You need the base game also
@slate arrow Thanks!
Precisely what I said…
On steam if you click on Shadowbringers it will have the complete edition as an option
Does anyone know how often the leves from the GCs cycle out?
I need to do "yellow is the new black" in central coerthas but the lady who I know usually has it doesn't have it right now.
Does doing the ones she has cycle it out? or can i just wait?
when do selen and eos start to have differences?
They don’t anymore
oh so now it just aesthetics?..
You should be able to accept them from NPC, then cancel them in journal to cycle them
it cycles on completion, iirc
Cool
i'll try that lmao
That's what i was thinking.
@uneven tendonDoesn't work.
I'll try just doing them
i was trying waiting first but on the off chance they change daily that's a dumb way to do it
Did you activate before cancelling?
So, I just learned that I cant level past 60 if I only own ARR+Heavensward but being how I want to buy the Endwalker Pre-Order which includes Stormblood and Shadowbringer on its release meaning I cant level past 60 until Endwalker comes out? That seems insanely stupid.
The game isn’t out til then so it’s not that dumb
You get 3 expansion with 40$ while some pay 120$ to do the same
Well Stormblood and Shadowbringers are out, but buying those expansions + Endwalker would be stupid.
Why would it? The content is still there
When Endwalker already includes Stormblood and Shadowbringers
But it’s not out
That is the problem lol.
If you buy the Endwalker Pre-Order you dont get access to Stormblood+Shadowbringers that are included in the purchase until Endwalker is out
Yes.
And that is a bit nonsensical.
oof to those who are gonna try to make the free trial last to the end of november
How many pre orders give you access to play before it comes out?
yea it should give you access to the others when you pay for it, and endwalker when early access starts. That's a bit rubbish.

^
FF14's main competitor gives you early access every xpac when you prepurchase, so they just kinda have to do that tbh
I dont want access to Endwalker but the 2 expansions included in it that are already out
I'm sure the ShB sku will be sunsetted eventually
Then just buy shadowbringers
This aint the discussion Server. This Here is for questions
the question is how soon will be in relation to the EW launch
Not true, you don't have access to the latest expansion until the prepatch
machinst in stormblood right?
and pay double for Endwalker that has Stormblood and Shadowbringers anyways?
whats the stormblood exlusvie jobs
Red mage and samurai
Sam and Red Mage
Red mage and Sam
ah thx
You always get stuff early at prepatch when you preorder the next WoW expansion. I don't recall if you ever got to do actual new content but you always could play new races and classes at prepatch
Should I get Endwalker free since I’ve paid for each expansion separately then?
So them letting you play early access is them 1upping WoW for business basically i'd figure
just like the free trial
You still don't get the latest expansions. My friends who tried shadowlands didn't get BFA til prepatch. Just preordering isn't enough
eh?
that's nto what i'm saying at all
what are you even on about
where can i spend collectable items?
Its a shitty marketing scheme you try to defend by being petty here.
They want me to either pay double to have access to the already released expansions+Endwalker or make me have to wait for content that is already released+Endwalker
Turning into discussion, the answer to your predicament is either wait until endwalker or pony up the money like everyone else #general-discussion or #rants
Collectibles are turned in at your nearest Rowena location
You said "FF14s main competitor gives early access every expac when you prepurchase", I read that as you get every expansion when you preorder, otherwise idk what you're even trying to say
You still need to wait til damn near release just like in ff
There is 0 reason why they couldnt activate SB and ShB imidiatelly on the accounts that buy the Endwalker pre-order besides greed.
Guys, move to another channel
Do you need to be wielding your unfinished relic weapon to do the quest for it while taking on Ifrit, Garuda, and Titan?
for the ARR relic yes you do
where can i trade low lvl collectables tho?
All Rarefied items go to the collectible appraisers
Do I need goring blade after unlocking royal authority?
Collectible appraisers can be found in the markets in city states like limsa
Hey All, I'm returning back to a lvl 80 Botanist but totally lost again, is there any good guides people can point me to to get me up to speed with "endgame" gathering/botany
what if i have duskfall moss and i cant trade it?
Goring is higher damage if the enemy survives long enough for the damage over time
i mean, if item is not rarefied
That's for zhloe
Custom delivery npc
can a machinist double weave during overheated if they have REALLY low latency?
All non Rarefied items are for custom deliveries or aetherical reduction
No
Mathematically impossible

@faint flareand no other ways to use them?

thank you!
After you did the quest, you summon him from inn rooms
what should i be using allagan tomestones of poetics on?
GEar? Will they be relevant in hw?
Damn, woke up and chose to spit facts
how do you guys keep track of ff14 events?
Does anyone know how I can re run a dungeon with the NPCs from Shadowbringers? I already completed them once for the MSQ, but don't know how to redo them again
Trust menu under the duty category
but it is pinned over in #beginner-lounge
once you did them for the msq you need to level up your trust members first
they are not always at the appropriate level like they were for the story
Thank you! I'm trying to find the Trust Category, but I'm not sure where it is, are they supposed to be on this menu?
it's not in the duty finder
Not in duty finder, in duty menu
it's under duty -> trust
OH I see, thanks so much!!!
how is the aesthetics npc called?
Have you done the quest?
no
where is the ninja job quest, forgot where it was
just need the name of the teleport
Msq tracker, look at it
im trying to finish off my 78 whm to 80, but i need to be 79 for the next quest. how do i get the xp to complete that level? The random dungeons don't really give that much xp
I didnt do the quest

Hey guys, I just started doing eureka, and I'm told by krile to look for protean crystals by killing mobs, I have been killing mobs until i've hit level 6 in eureka but have yet to get a drop, am I doing something wrong?
Do we know if female hrothgar is coming or is it just speculations
I think they said it’s coming, not at launch of EW tho
leveling roulette without the daily bonus, or highest lvl dungeon?
Highest dungeon
How do you do this specific emote? Can only lalas do it?
sorry the gif is where I learned about it
Warrior's level 70 job stone skill
The emote itself is surprised
chance for the bonus item which grants extra scrips
hmmm
There’s also titles for delivering a total of 150 items to a trust NPC
AKA 25 weeks of deliveries
is there any easy ish way to get from mid-78 to 79 for the next MSQ? I don't particularly want to do roulettes on this character because I came back to my WHM and don't know how to heal properly on him, and i think that would be cruel on other players if i went into advanced dungeons
Not sure if this belongs here, but how many memories drop from the alliance raids? Will I have to do them 15 times or did they buff the drop rate? o:
Main scenario roulette won’t need much healing generally
ok thanks, i'll try that 🙂
how does a 'collectible bowl of soup' make any sense
could also do frontline roulette
Epoxy hot dog comes to mind
i got a foil chili!
did I already mess up trying to change my yellow chocobo to snow white?
I read that I wanted to watch for the plumage message but after 3 pineapples (supposed to be 1) of not seeing it, I thought ok so maybe its only at the end
but now im getting it every feed

how to level DRK from 30 to 50?
The process has a touch of RNG, I’ve trusted in the guide each time and got what I wanted, but there are those who haven’t. It will say ‘growing new feathers’ multiple times throughout the process, once you’ve finished the guide, if the last one doesn’t change plumage add a couple extra of the last one and you should see it, then cross your fingers and hope it worked
I think snow white and soothe black has the lowest RNG chance
so just listen to what the calculator say, feed in order and pray that it went through
Dungeons, roulettes, challenge log, palace of the dead
Got it. I'll start growing more fruit in my planet pots just in case
roulette?
yoo so I'm on a msq where I need to go to coerthas western highlands but I don't have access to the border from ishgard how am I supposed to get there?
Duty finder has roulettes where it puts you in a random duty under that content setting: levelling roulette will put you in any dungeon up to your level, once a day you get a bonus amount of exp for completing the roulette
It’s the first tab in duty finder
I believe you have to speak to the chocobo porter near the skysteel manufactory
your lvl 30 job adv quest isnt part of msq right
It’s on the tracker
where is that?
am i correct in assuming that Advanced Materia Melding didn't exist in Heavensward and that's why all heavensward gear is overmeld prohibited?
Class quests are not part of the msq but important since some give you spells, weaponskill or abilities.
I dont see hunting log for DRK
well not all, the crafting ones are allowed, but the vendor bought ones seem to be prohibited
only classes that start at level1 have a hunting log
i just hit lvl 30 do you know how i can do my dragoon advancement quest?
if it's available to you, it will be under the main quest in the top left of your screen
if not, continue doing main quest until it is
Is there a guaranteed dungeon drop system for non level cap dungeons? How does it work?
As stated above but also check to make sure you are a dragoon and not a lancer by equipping your job crystal. Go to your character menu and see in the bottom right, under your rings, that you have a crystal.
how do i get this?
Do you have item for current role? No? Take this one you don’t own yet
Anyone have a macro for crafting Coffee Biscuits?
hmm dont have one yet
Do the next msq come back and buy it
okie so keep doing msq until it takes you back to buy it?
Do people still do Coils and Void Ark? I cannot find anyone on DF or it takes over an hour in Elemental. Meanwhile, Alexander and Crystal Tower seems to be very active
In Foundation to the west of the aetheryte
How do i slow walk ?
If I am trying to get a chest piece of a set, should I keep things like the legs / gloves in my inventory so that it won't give me a repeat?
After you choose a grand company, you will unlock the quest to get your 1st mount. If you are not that far in msq, just keep grinding. Once you do choose grand company, they will give you some seals so you buy a chocobo permit from them to get a chocobo.
It would help
You also need to be far in the msq, if your are behind, then some class quests won't be available. Most unlockables are restricted with how far a long you are with the msq.
The very next msq after choosing GC gives 300 seals, issuance requires 200
is there a way to try out all the eq in game for glamour without having to manually equip them ?
square -> try on
i heard there are program that extract the in game model to help you try o glamour
is almost every extreme prior to SB soloable at this point? (or even including SB extremes?)
I know some may have mechanics that are simply undoable solo but maybe just a handful?
Some of the HW ones you could, but damn it's tedious
Bismarck is doable but kitschy.
Basically you have to be on top of bursting down one of the two tether-snakes before they close in on you, and you have to be on top of sprinting to hit both Dragonkillers before the first one times out
Ravana ... I am uncertain. Thordan, probably, Nidhogg, probably not, the Triad ... most likely not.
What's a conjurer's main tool? And I if I happen to have gotten rid of the first one that was given to me so that my gear set won't equip, can I get another one?
any recommended website or program for trying out glamour ?
Which city would have a level 1?
any starting cities
What would the most simple to play dps job while still being able to be useful to a party be ? I'm not a super dps role fan but actually making friends in the game now so I wont always just be doing random dungeons auto being healer, going to need a second job.
I'd rather not have to care about positionals
All melee rely on their positionals
It can be as high as a 60 potency ish loss per missed positional
So I assume that would also apply to RDM's melee part of a rotation then.
In terms of simplicity, red mage is up there as one of the "easier" to play dps
Nah, RDM doesn't have them
No
oh that's good
Only physical dps have positionals
Tanks don't have them, rdms melee combo doesn't have them
Monk, samurai, dragoon, ninja and presumably reaper all have positionals
Tldr you can't really play melee and just not do positionals.
If you want the simplest dps job then dancer
Partner the dps, dance on Cooldown, press glowy button
Done
So you're a walking buff ?
You buff the one guy with the occasional party buff
!action aeolian edge
And do damage
example of positional
it has "rear" or "flank bonus
either gauge bonus or damage bonus
Anyone knows the name of these boots?
if your skill doesn't have that, then it's not a positional
i just unlocked my first custom delivery NPC, am i correct in thinking that her xp rewards don't scale past level 60?
since she's from heavensward
WHM lvl 70 AF boots
So, if I have a piece of Lv50 gear that I want to glamour onto my current items, do I need to be at least Lv50 before I can make use of the glamour?
how much micro management is the SCH fairy? or is it a cast and forget?
cast and forget
you need to be able to equip the item to use it as a glamour
the only important thing now is the fairy's placement
sweet, thanks @slate arrow
which is usually in the middle of the arena 99% of the time
Aw. My Gladiator is a low level and I wanted to use a Lv50 glamour set. 😦
oh and when to use dissipation
Hey I have a question about the loading times. Sometimes there long and then other times there short is that normal?
Bigger zones will have longer load times
move the game onto an SSD, my load times are barely 1 second for any place in the game
This is a basic fact of game design
I know that much but sometimes I can be rather long
