wanna farm the skallic gear
you can run it solo @ 80 as a war
So like... to craft stuff over ilvl 50, my craftmanship req suddenly jumped from 300 to 500+... how exactly do i fill that 200 gap?

Get better gear
then, yeah you would be need to train them, there should be a board right behind the big guy who administers them
the gear i can craft offers like, only 20 or so increase in craftmanship though
Has there ever been a conclusion to battle tactics for squadrons on whether it affects their AI
Does squadron the inc to dmg dealt affect the healer's heal amount
guys how do you do DPS Training - Exercise 4: Avoid Engaged Targets at the smith?
ah, yeah you need to do the quest above him first, i guess.
If I plan to get everything to level 80, would road to 70 be worth it when im on level 73 MSQ and have 3 level 80s already to reroll? o_O
yeah road to 70 defo helps
yeah so it's the squad's first mission
you should be still able to do it, just a lower chance to complete it
unless you fail to do it all the time
So you're saying that the reroll is probably worth?
I'll report later, doing trial now
ok
even that deep into the MSQ and already having a few 80s?
like
leave my datacenter and go into a new character on a new data center
and then transfer back over after 90 days
hmmm
Hello, does the green dog extreme trial can be unsync? @patent citrus
well it's up to you, but there's no reason to make alt char really
unless you are into RP stuff
since starting a new character means you are starting from 0
I don't see why you would reroll for that
yea, that's why im contemplating and asking strangers on the internet for their opinions
yeah, I wouldn't
i don't think it's worth it.
since i WILL be going for 80 everything
been only playing 3 weeks so technically it should take me 1.5 weeks to get back to where i am lol
is there a macro i can set up that will use more than one action at the same time?
Hello guys, does the dog with green color from SB primal can be unsync?
no, that is not a good macro
example?
all my tank damage reductions
nope
That's terrible
it won't work, since there is an animation delay on ogcd's
even if you planned to get EVERYTHING to 80?
Yes.
whats your reasoning
I'm leveling all classes to 80 w/o the buff.
you have to wait like 0.5 seconds till you can use your next cooldown
so am i but it's a bummer having to do twice as many HOH runs as i would need to
It's not the exp gains that's the frustrating part. It's the DPS queue times.
Queue times won't change with that buff.
Potd or HOH for faster queues as dps.
i mean i'd do HOH grinding so there is no queue times
oh ive never waited beyond 5 minutes
Or you can do what I did as I leveled all my dps to cap before HOH and Potd was a thing: level gatherers and crafters in the meantime.
I had Omni 60 before potd existed and omni 70 before HOH existed. I just leveled non-combat stuff and did fates during queues.
so you're saying it's worth to reroll for the road to 70 O:
no?
it's so not worth it, especially if you have 3 80s already.
because you'd have to literally play all of msq again.
but there's like 18? classes and then all the crafting classes
man making big boy choices is rough

Getting to 80 on all classes took me about 4 months or so from ShB launch. Just do dailies, do challenge log for fates, daily hunts in the mean time, do gatherers if you run out of that, then custom deliveries, then beast tribes etc
Now you also have bozja and the preorder earrings for extra exp gains too
what's the name of the orchestrion roll during the cutscene for custom deliveries?
i havent even unlocked bozja yet lol but the new character also gets the earring
hi if i want to upgrade from free trial, do i buy the shb pack or the endwalker pack on the square enix store?
best value for moeny is endwalker
since it comes out in like
3 months anyways
you can do the trial at your own pace then when endwalker drops
Well
you have all expansions
you need to buy the complete game before you can play endwalker ever
Hang on
i dont believe any of the end walker purchases come with the base game
since i just went through this process
o
You need the starter edition regardless, since that's the base game. Endwalker if you preorder it will give you all the expansions WHEN IT COMES OUT in November.
rip
If you don't want to wait 3 months for the expansions (lol) you want to just get the current complete edition which is the starter edition and Shadowbringers in one
oh
And get Endwalker later
what would be the fastest way to earn company seals besides the leveling roulette?
technically when Endwalker comes out the new complete edition would but yeah that still means waiting 3 whole months
somehow, on my main, i was earning them like crazy, but on an alt, they're trickling in
The crafting and gathering supply missions is good depending on your level
Also GC hunting log section
And if high enough rank on GC you can do expert delivery
to Relocation your house you need to wait like the other that want to buy the land or you can do it instantr ?
Instant
Relocation skips the queue.
does anyone know if I queue into duty roulette as the role in need but after a few mins of waiting the role in needed changed but I am still in queue
would I get the bonus gils
or i have to requeue as the needed job everytime it change
Whether or not you get the player in need bonus is locked in when you queue
Yup, if it was any other way queues would be a nightmare as people would constantly jump between jobs to try and get it
do you need to reach the hw story content to unlock the lvl50+ job quests?
is it normal that went too many people are in one zone, you cant hear your own attacks well? the "combat ambiance" drowns it out?
If there are a huge number of people there, then yes.
The crowd chatter can get very loud sometimes.
Kind of overload, happen a lot with special fates and s rank
is it any way to turn that down? i kinda use sound to know if my abilities hit
There is, in sound settings
You use... sound to tell if your abilities hit?
Unless you're super under level, your abilities will always hit.
If you're cueing off the ability hit sound, you're starting too late.
how much more exp does praetorium give over castrum for duty MSQ roulette?
Not a ton. They're effectively the same.
The roulette bonus is identical, but you get like, a few 100k more from additional trash in Prae, iirc?
oof for like a bonus 20 mins, don't seem worth to me >.<
It's a 10 minute difference, on average. 35m for CM, 45 for Prae.
Prae has more time to get up and use the bathroom or watch Netflix though.
Does the bonus exp still apply for a fixed amount of exp from leve quests?
Msq roulette isn’t very time efficient for exp, if you’re in a hurry to level I’d skip it.
MSQ roulette is worth anywhere from half a level (65+) to two levels and a good quantity of poetics. It's efficient enough if you only have time for one thing.
Eh I’d rather just do whatever is my highest leveling dungeon. Can get gear and more efficient exp.
And not sit through those cutscenes. >_<
Highest level leveling dungeon is only worth 1/4-1/3 of a bar of xp on average.
So while it's quicker to get through, and certainly long-term more efficient, roulettes are still worth the time.
Does anyone play on PC with a controller? What macros do you guys use for Dragon Sight?
That's why the recommended alt leveling path is: daily roulettes > highest level leveling dungeon
Generally speaking, I don't use a macro for Dragon Sight, since you'd need to change it for every party to make it work.
I’m gonna go ahead and disagree on the non-leveling roulette being worth it.
how do I check my ingame latency?
You could (in theory) make a macro to target party member 4 which is the default position for the other dps but it wouldn’t necessarily be the best in an 8 man.
I kinda got something for a priority targeting macro but was kinda curious on what you guys have
I have it on 6784
!faq checkping
- Open CMD (Windows key + R, Type CMD and hit enter)
- Type: ping -n 20 [Datacenter ip address] without the brackets
- Press enter
PD: To check your Datacenter IP adress go to https://arrstatus.com/
I prefer manually targeting the eye.
It's generally going to be more efficient to choose your partner on a case-by-case basis. I'm not sure how you'd do a priority macro that would work properly.
can f2p players participate in The Rising event?
Just dpad up/down to select your target, then use the ability and tab back to the boss or whatever.
If correct, it'd prioritize the closest melee DPS
Yes. It's a minimum level 15 event.
What MSQ level is he?
talking with sylphs
Then work its way down to tank should all other DPS is ranged
Macros in this game do not queue.
MSQ lv21
If I'm understanding what you're saying correctly, your proposed macro would simply choose the first target on the list every time
he already beat ifrit
does samurai have anima weapons? because i culdnt find it on the wiki
@fickle glacier no
Macros can't distinguish between tank, melee, ranged etc.
No. SAM is a SB class so does not have either ARR or HW relic weapons.
Samurai didn't exist when Anima was introduced in Heavensward
They don't add old relic to new Jobs
Not the first target on the list
6 7 8 is where my DPS partymates are
On a full party
@versed siren when he click the
icon on his duty list where does it lead him?
Can you post your proposed macro? We can tell you if it will work or not here.
Presence of the Enemy Lv21 MSQ
!quest Presence of the Enemy
You can change that
Komuxio of Little Solace would entrust you with a task.
Komuxio
East Shroud (X: 22.01 Y: 25.7)
Komuxio
East Shroud (X: 22.01 Y: 25.7)
Forest Friend
Brotherly Love
Have dps appear at the top of the party when playing a dps
The slyphs should be up in the tree
If they aren't
Teleport elsewhere and come back?
ac "Dragon Sight" <6>
/ac "Dragon Sight" <7>
/ac "Dragon Sight" <8>
/ac "Dragon Sight" <5>
/ac "Dragon Sight" <4>
no, the problem is that he can't find the NPC for The Rising Event
His friend is trying to find the starting quest for The Rising. Not for his current MSQ.
That’s in Uldah
Go to Uldah
Nope. That will just straight up put it on the number 6 member of the party.
It probably won't do 6th because macro is iffy that way
is the event locked for f2p?
No
Is there a lot of people there?
The npc just didn’t load probably
nope
Then what do you propose I use?
You make multiple macros
I would propose you don't macro it, honestly. Just use the up/down dpad to select the party member, and then hit the ability.
And again you can have the dps be at the top of the party list
/merror off
/ac "dragon sight" <6>
/ac "dragon sight" <6>
...
/ac "dragon sight" <6>
/micon "dragon sight"
NVM, he found it. It was NOT a blue quest XD
^ like that.
I'm playing with PC, but does anyone have any advice on active time maneuver thing where you have to click on buttons for a multiple time? I clicked on the mouse as fast as I can, but I almost died in SoS normal.
I gave him the wrong info
No. Seasonal quests never are.
@leaden ginkgo use your left and right index fingers
Roll your face on your keyboard. It will accept any key input.
^ this.
thanks for the help guys
Pretend you're a hacker in a movie.
Just mash buttons.
Just don’t hit chat
Why all 6?
Because macro is designed to be dumb
To prevent error clipping.
macros suck ass
if it's one line it might not work
For the button thing, do I press multiple buttons simultaneously? Or, 1 button at a time with two fingers?
you can press multiple buttons
Multiple simultaneously.
And repeating it gives it a better chance to go through
get this, but not for enter
If you do it right, it would basically look like this (if you did it in chat): ;dlskalfdjf;lkfsmfsl;;fjkdjfdos
But don’t go into chat or you’ll stop doing inputs according to the game
^
Wait, then for example, can I put my 10 fingers on anything at my keyboard and press them simultaneously really fast? I'm really bad at the button thing all the time
Yep
As long as its not your hotkey to open chat, it will count.
You are over thinking this
Thanks! When I played Ex Hades, everyone got released from the chain instantly, and I always took ages to get released from that.
The game is trying to be challenging
It is not trying to screw you over
Screwing you over doesn't come until you are trying to loot in an alliance raid
Start at rest position (left hand ASDF, right hand JKL;). Smash keys. Easy.
I'll do that next time
I think the top three mechanics that I don't like are:
- dohn mheg bridge (I never got over it)
- buttons
- loots (I think it's insane to do 99 runs in ex contents)
Get over the bridge! Ha.
hi guys. why when i login to my free trial account it keeps saying i have entered the incorrect password etc? i have created squarc enix account already
buttons
I have bad news to you about video games
You don’t need to do 99 runs to get the mount.
That’s just a protection from rng.
I just have 1 more question, but some DPS are getting extraordinarily high DPS compared to others (like 2.5k while others are 1.5k), and I think it's not due to their high itlv. Can I get extremely high DPS if I do more practices with my rotation?
are you able to log into Mogstation with that username and password?
many players in this game are not perfect - the barrier for entry is quite low. However, perfection is rewarded. So yes, you could. However because of how jobs are balanced, some innately do more damage output than others
Some jobs just have higher dps
um.. yup i can login
Sam and BLM being the selfish ones
and dps on jobs below level 80 gets really whack, dnc does obnoxious damage at low levels and gnb likewise
What are these orbs that i've seen in few places around the world ?

is your account a Steam account or non-Steam?

Thanks
umm for steam wise i have forgotten my old account so using non steam version atm
Yeah, but in today's SoS normal, SMN got around 2.5k, while the others including samurai and dragon were around 1.5k, and I was also around 1.5k. I really wonder why that happens
It doesn't work that way
i just downloaded the free trial on the website
hmm, there should be no problems then
2.5k is horrifically low for shadowbringers content. are you sure?
25k, maybe?
hmm....isit possible to make gil in the firmament?
Sorry, 25k
pretty sure everyone been told that each player has different skill
2.5k is basically auto attack numbers lol
player skill is more iportant than the class
If you have ever previously paid for the game on any platform, you cannot use the free trial.
that SAM player probably a better player than the rest
If the smn was doing 25k, they're likely bis geared, or you had echo from dying once or twice. Hence, assume they were very fucking good. If sam and drg were on 15k, they either died a shit ton, had low gear, or weren't playing well
You mean the summoner
um.. im using different square enix and gmail account i think
And was it on single target? Aoe? Was there a difference in gear?
no adds in sos nm
When you log in on the Mogstation, what do you see under account status?
Or just bad down time management
We didn't die at all and no echo, and I was pretty surprised
Or samurai doesn't know how to use Hagakure to adjust their sen
account type : free trial
Because I imagine itlv 520 and 530 makes only around 5-10% DPS change, right?
if you encounter one person doing double the dps of another person in any content, the answer is likely, one or many of, 'the top person was blazingly good', 'the bottom people were not very good'
yeah practice your rotation
That is not a divide which exists in actual content
There was a skill/gear gap in those numbers
You should be able to log in through the free trial launcher with that account, then.
Maybe you're entering your information wrong?
!faq dpsmeta
FFXIV is extremely balanced for MMO standards, and their main differences come from other aspects like synergy, aesthetic, and playstyle. Play what you think looks cool or what feels fun to play first.
'I saw a rankings page and it shows otherwise/someone in Twitch chat /some random high parser disagrees!'
DPS performance differences via job design within roles are small enough to be completely insignificant for the overwhelming majority of players, and are very contextual:
-
In a vacuum, job differences within roles appear to only be around 0.5% to 2% apart, which only amounts to mid to low hundreds when we're doing like ~24,000 RDPS. The problem is that these vacuum scenario comparisons generally don't exist in practice.
-
Variables like encounter design (including ultimate phasing), kill time (down to a few seconds), strats and party composition/synergy can swing RDPS by a couple of thousand, or even reverse job trends.
-
Crit/direct hit RNG alone may swing +/- 1000 RDPS from the average. This number is usually smaller for Healers and Tanks, but still exists.
-
Even a small difference in skill/comfort, like dropping a couple of GCDs, a broken combo or two, slight misalignment of burst, and/or simply knowing a few more advanced mini-optimizations on one job vs another can amount to a few hundred RDPS difference or more.
You need to be playing multiple jobs at the same level of competence on a GCD-by-GCD level, in pre-planned party compositions, with predictable killtimes, comparable knowledge of niche optimizations and a high kill count for this to make any tangible difference. And even then, it’s still a relatively minor difference. Skill, personality, and job comfort come first.
The right questions to ask are what are the playstyles, strengths/weaknesses and synergies of each job pertaining to your specific situation.
The sam should've been by rights above the smn, the drg maybe a bit below
Also I wouldn’t be worried about dps numbers in normal modes long as you’re getting clears.
^
yeah probably people just don't care
Sadly my gametime has ended. Is there any other way than paysafe card/subscription to get more?
It's just story mode
if you run parser in normal mode content what you will find is many people simply aren't very good at optimising
The number is under the assumption that people know what they are doing
As long as you aren’t being out damaged by healers
Most people don’t optimize in normal mode anyway.
i mean, playing well is a mindset, but point taken
If a samurai don't look it up, they probably won't know using Hagakure to adjust their Sen in their one minute rotation
Thanks all! If I'm interested in getting the top DPS in party, what job should I choose? Is it samurai?
the class you think is cool
All jobs are equally competitive
Isn't there a chart?
and when you enjoy playing it, you are more likely play it better
I usually play MNK, and it is possible to get top DPS as MNK
!faq meta
Some jobs pay for lower damage output by more utility, freedom of movement, or giving dps to other players
All are equally valuable
MNK DPS is very good yeah
Please take note that the game is aggressively balanced
There is no "why you pick this, it is bad" Job in XIV
yeah stop relying on your job
Unlike other games
Mnk is one a lot of people don't like because it has a ton of positionals
But it's still a good job
you suck means you suck, playing a "better job" doesn't increase your skill level
Thanks! I might just practice more with MNK to get better dps
I think it is fair if players want to choose a high Dps job, but don't go with the mindset of "if I don't go high Dps job, I won't be able to perform"
I personally like to play samurai, because I like the animation
True North is pretty strong, and you won't really lose that much DPS except Bootshine and when you do 90sec boost
And the big Midare number also helps
There are "selfish" dps which have more personal dps than other jobs but as a result have No raid utility
Other jobs also have party buffs that stack with other party buffs to make up for the lower personal dps so it all balances out
so, i'm about to start leveling some crafts. is it beneficial to have alts for crafting? i mainly want to craft for glamours
Just lvl crafters
No, but it is recommended to do all your crafter/gatherer levelling at the same time since they all share gear
Doing alts is not really recommended, because it's really time consuming
Not unless you really need the extra retainer space and access to 3 more specializations without swapping them.
what do u guys reccomend. standard or legacy movement?
Whatever works for you
This game as a whole isn't very alt friendly, because you can play all jobs on one character it really isn't necessary
I just hit lvl 60 where do I buy the new poetics set? I don't have ydillshire unlocked :/
You can’t
you don't
You wait until idyllshire.
Then you wait
If you mean alts for alt job (all crafts), I think it's good. Some people create alt characters for crafters, but I don't think it's necessary.
bruh moment
You don't have access to any content where your lack of poetics gear will matter
Are you free trial?
idk if i even have the inventory space for all the crafters on my main...
Nah I have everything even endwalker pre-order
That explains the overlevelling
yeah i did all the daily roulettes so im overlvled for everything
You will, just don’t hoard things for no reason
Then, buy cheap NQ Lv60-70 gears at market board. They are less than 10k, and are much stronger than poetics gear
Pick up an alt job and play/level that with roulettes instead
It depends
NQ?
No quality
Never
Just save your gil and focus msq until you get to the shire.
I don't think I'm too far off idyllshire my MSQ says lvl 57 already
HQ gears have the correct stat matching their item level
You are close yes
For example, if your main job is Lv75 and if you are playing Lv55 contents at the moment, if you buy cheap Lv74 gears, you don't have to care about your gears until you finish Lv70 contents.
NQ gears are quite underpowered so they are rarely recommended
Yeah, but 72 NQ gears are much stronger than 60 poetics gear. That's how I got my gears when I did main quests
What's The Rising supposed to be?
That's what I was going to say
But I still don't recommend doing it because you'd need to look at the same gear for 20 levels
It’s the arr anniversary event.
And if you have a lvl 75 job, and are still on lvl 55 msq, just use a lvl 55 job
From when it launched.
Ohh, I see.
Just get the highest level gear that you can wear. No one buys NQ gears, so it's too cheap
You don't get any significant benefit from being over geared compared to your MSQ
You’re gonna get synced down for every duty
true, but there are some cases where you have to fight with field mobs, and as you can imagine, killing Lv55 mobs with Lv70+ gears is an instant
That's like 5 percent of your MSQ or less
Overworld mobs are a joke even at their lvl
But if you insist for that kind of optimization sure
I think it's better to go in dungeons with high level gears than with going to Lv69 dungeons with poetics gear or Lv60 gears. It's just my opinion
The msq showered you with gears
You have lvl 68 gears from msq when you do your lvl 69 dungeon
You’d replace shire by 69
Are the normal raids good for learning there savage counterparts or do the extra mechs in savage not make it really worth it? o.o
Why waste your gils to get gears when the game is giving you plenty on the way
It sort of prepares you.
You can sell the gears that you get in MSQ if you have high level gears
For example, in 12 normal when she casts the primal spells, the safe spots are the same as in savage but without the Telegraph. @buoyant sorrel
Dude just stop with this already
You don't become an expert in savages by doing normal raids, but you be an expert in normal raids after doing savages. Doing normal raids is not a bad idea
Oki ty ^^
Same with 11 and 11s where it teaches you some of his elemental slices and prismatic deception.
The point was that normal does teach you how some of the savage mechanics work. Which it does. Take it from someone that’s been clearing savage on content since stormblood. ^_^
To get used to the pacing of Savage, you can go and try to do some Extreme trials
Yeah. Definitely clear extreme contents before going to savages. There is a high possibility that your rotation is incorrect, gcd is stopping, have several abilities where you haven't used before, etc
You don’t necessarily need to do extremes to go in to savage. Doesn’t hurt though.
Also, doing alliance raids is not a bad option, because their mechanics is kind of difficult and you can also power up your gears. Plus, you can practice your Lv80 rotations there because each boss is pretty long
Are macros the only way to switch HUDs and keybinds between jobs?
How much time the white mage need to earn 1 stack ?
what movement option do u reccomend, Legacy or standard?
Try both.
See which one works better for you.
Well you can do it manually but idk if you can macro keybind changes
@sturdy mango 30s of active combat
For HUD layouts you can only assign 4 jobs to 4 different layouts right?
You can only macro opening the keybind menu
No, you just only have 4 hud layouts
Jobs aren't associated with them at all
turn off sharing on hotbar 1 2 3
How do I do that?
I would suggest creating 1 for healer (the default view is not good), 1 for jobs that procs a lot (put 1 hotbar at the middle of screen so that you don't have to look at the bottom all the time), and the usual one
ty 😄
Hotbars and buds are 2 completely separate thing
oh but honestly, if you need to change hud setting to feel more comfortable when changing job
your current setting is not comfortable at all
it just the basic of anything you press a lot should be in range of your finger, other buff, at least 80s or above should be further as you press it less frequent
and this apply to all job, not just tank, healer or dps specific
Makes sense
I did change my keybindings in that regard and adapted the standard HUD layout to do more of that
Getting more into different jobs and I realize that I need different layouts for each
Its unfortunate I can't have a separate layout for each job after 4 since there aren't many saved slots
You don’t need separate huds
you can still create 3 layout for each role, cus this is pure personal preference, it just that there is no macro to auto change it
Just separate hotbars
I don't get this one
Job 1 has their skills
Job 2 has their skills
The skills set on hotbars aren’t shared between them
Yeah we don't have the same skills but does the structure and placement of the hotbar itself change?
No
Rip
I don't really see why you'd need a different structured hotbar for each job
Which folklores are most important for gathering classes?
Haven't tried many jobs but between SMN, DRK and SCH I feel like all 3 need a different layout
And then idk about the others if they are similar to these or not
You could stack 3 hotbars on top of each other and change how you lay out the skills
As opposed to a completely different hud for each job
so what we talking for 10mins is just that you dont know how sharing hot bar work
then it easy to fix
You could tick the hide unused hotbar slots and have them all active, just invisible and adjust your job layout that way
...which folklore can give me good money?
Yes
can u not answer if u answer with yes?^^
I need help to solve a mystery
I've suddenly got a bunch of diverse VII and VIII Materia in my inventory but I have no idea from where. I didn't extract anything.
I just noticed them there after using a Fantasia and running Praetorium on level 70 (no role bonus). But I can't remember Fantasia or Praetorium giving a bunch of materia.
Are they part of the event or does anyone have an idea where they might have come from?
hm subbed with 1 day left did it work now cant see anything in my payment progress and rest time for sub is also gone?
am i correct in assuming that instant cast during trance for SMN is just a small bonus you can discard and the real reason of that spell is to get access to the big nuke it provides?
and tri disaster reset
tri disaster feels very awkward to be honest
since it's an off gcd ability it feels silly to open with it
but you can use it instead of casting miasma and bio
there's usually some travel time for tank to reach the mob
what should i do with duplicate triad cards?
so you can cast miasma during that and then tap bio
that way you can instantly begin charging your aetherflare
uh the 72-man pvp is just 3 zerg balls? Or I do something wrong?
as silly as it sounds i think tri disaster would be better if it was a regular gcd ability
whats the highest materia i can meld into lv 60 gear?
it should say on the materia
this refers also to the max ilvl of the item it can be slotted into
Wrong

oh, should i even bother melding items on trial? i want to buy the game but cant for a while
unless you're doing alexander savage? probably not
Iirc 4/5 stuff but I'm not 100%.honestly unless you're doing Alex savage which you realistically can't do on trial anyways
Not worth the effort just vendor it
why cant i do savage?
Cuz it's not in any df roulettes and you realistically will NEVER get a group
You could but no one cares about doing old savage synced much and there's not much reason to do it outside of glamour or mounts
hm, how strange, that tooltip on the materia corresponds correctly for I, II, III, V, but not for IV
Which you just unsync with 80s for that
That's the minimum level, not the maximum
Literal opposites
well yeah you know what i meant
You can always meld in lower tier materia
Level 1 materia on level 530 gear, no problem
so no one does lvl 60 content outside of roulettes?
i meant the minimum of course
Extremes and savages aren't really made for doing with random people on df, since if you screw up a mechanic you can easily wipe the whole party
i just discovered that despite IV saying base level 70, apparently it only needs 55
sell it at gold saucer for mpg
ok
but the rest of the materia tiers correspond correctly to that number
Hey guys
anybody knows of a good guide for gardening?
Is gardening woth the time?
For old 60 end game content? For the most part that is the case. You might find some folks wanting mounts or glamour from it but it’s dead content that’s a few years old.
how do I enchance something with materia?
!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
Depends on what you’re going for.
is it worth to get shadowbringers with endwalker coming soon if there is a good sale?
so only npc can do it?
no idea, i have very little idea if it's proffitable or even worth it
Currently rank 37, how long would it take me to reach 50 solo?
When you consider you need a house to properly cross breed and get the rare stuff? Not really.
do you mean level?
um guys. for free trial which sever has the most player? ( asia sever )
depends on how much content you have left to do that you want to do
!faq server
!faq serverpick
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
i tried creating on tonberry but it moved me to other sever
There aren't really any solid server population numbers. Everything is cross-datacenter though, so just pick a server that has space.
ah
!status tonberry
yeah, we've got a house in our fc
all sever is the same yes?
ive only finished heavensward msq and im at level cap on trial, im just leveling up alts
alright!
You’d want to go through the process of breeding thavnairian onions which there are guides for. But it requires days of work, 2-3 weeks if you don’t fertilize on the hour.
And some pain in the ass rare items to get. >_>
Almond seed farming is agony.
id say buy shadowbringers if you wanna play with others when endwalker comes out
Heyo~ Q: How are collector’s edition items redeemed in-game? can it be redeemed multiple times on all characters?
hey, i'm trying to do the The Striking Tree in hard but can't find a party since yesterday, is it normal ?
does the road to 70 also affect crafting/gathering?
all jobs
Lolol ok thanks!
you play dps? that can take a while like 10-20mins
Why I cant glam this as lvl 71 gnb? oO
what is the max item lvl for, weaver, goldsmith and carpenter i can buy for gil? and where can i buy it?
on free trial sorry
yea, but its like 70mins + after resetting
@faint flare how many questions do you think you will answer by the time EW comes out
Way too many
understandable have a good day
Are materias under 5 pretty useless? I was thinking of selling them to the doman enclave
!faq dflanguages
thats a good use for them yeah
OOOH thank you sir !!
what is the max item lvl for, weaver, goldsmith and carpenter i can buy for gil? and where can i buy it? (as a free trial player)
Where do I get lvl 70 accessories with poetics?
Seems it isn't under the Scavean tab
It is
without spoilers, are there "relevant" classes for each expansion? Like, playing DRG in HW is immersive, what about Stormblood and Shadowbringers?
Accessories tab at the top
Nope
Who are you speaking to
I mean, first off you are about 270 poetics short of buying any accessories also
I'm just short of the stats required to craft HQ exarchic gear for my jobs, but I heard that NQ exarchic gear can still be augmented (It just requires x2 of the materials if I remember correctly?) Is it worth it to buy HQ from the marketboard or just deal with having to gather twice the materials to augment NQ? I haven't finished ShB MSQ yet so I'm not quite sure what the materials are or how difficult they are to obtain
You can but you'll basically have to make a set of exarchic gear twice
Yeah was tryna find where accessories were for an FC member.
vendor in Ishgard, ilvl 100, but those are useful up until you reach Idyllshire and buy script gear lvl 60 with ilvl 200
Those ones are job exclusive just letting you know
What do I do if I'm in Sastasha via roulette with a sprout tank that refuses to turn on stance and won't read chat?
let him die
I'm a DPS btw
vote kick
if he doesnt read chat
vote kick
not performing your role is a good reason to vote kick
if they won't listen then kick em
what is the tank job?
Gladiator
I've been spamming the chat with "Iron Will please use it", autotranslate and sound effects and everything
type iron will, hit tab choose the Iron Will
try what i just wrote
what you just wrote is Defiance, which is the WAR ability
Anyone know the name of song that has lyrics with “save the word”
That's what they're doing
Gonna have to be more specifc
What cutscene or trial?
I literally cant
So I was looking at FFXIV collect and I felt that many of the really difficult things had too high of a percentage of people owning. Do they only track people who have linked their FFXIV account to their site making them more likely to be collectors that have those kind of things?
my bad, a bit of brain lag
So literally most of them
guys, can retainers (DoL) use yellow script gear? I have them capped and dont know what do use them for. Thanks
what dungeon was it? what boss?
Mounts and minions and achievments they can track from every account that isn't private. Everything else is down to the users
Are accounts automatically set on private?
Yes, why wouldn't they be able to
No
I see
thanks, I will buy/check
I mean outside of achievement cert, msq and pony mounts barely anything goes above 50%
then we can't really help if you can't be more specific than that
because there are a lot of songs with similar leitmotifs and themes and lyrics
Then say what dungeons it plays in
And a lot of the popular side stuff was in mog tomes making them super accessible
Update: They turned it on
It repeats save rhe world idk how to be mroe direct
It's a Christmas miracle
Yeah I was looking at some of the rarer ones that need a lot of time and I felt surprised at how many people had them
Okay: easy answer.
No one currently here knows
are you talking about potd? hoh? you're really not being clear enough to get an answer.
if you look at Lalachievements, they say how many total characters are scanned
music in dungeons is not randomized.
I see
Define rarer
all I can guess is that you're mishearing one of the sb dungeon themes. the lyrics are "storm of blood, born from blood" not "save the word."
Well the specific one I was looking at was the one for the ishguard restoration. Its been a day so I don't remember as well it's percentage of ownership
What levels do I unlock the Pyros aetherytes
I accidentally started a cutscene with my main audio turned off. Is there a way i can enabled it back with a key bind or something so I can hear this cutscene?
The only ishgard restoration mount is pteranodon and that's 0.5%
Insatiable is the only song that ever plays when you fight a lightwarden ||(other than Titania)||
you kind of need to remember the tank stance of tank, just type the name in chat and press tab to use auto-translate, choose the one between phone icon, it will display the name as other reference language
Every other scrip mount from that is piss easy to get and can even be sold on the marketboard
Even .5% is still a ton of people I feel, maybe I'm wrong
it's not many people.
I’ll@just shazam it next time i hear it
It's literally the rarest non time locked mount in the game
I guess compared to most games people in FFXIV are more willing to spend large amounts of time collecting these things, that's why I feel like it's alot
Ownership is calculated based on publicly available characters who have been updated on the site in the past 3 months and possess at least one collectable in a given category.
These percentages are not a reflection of the entire playerbase, but rather a subset of players who are interested in collecting things. If you are looking to collect competitively, then this is probably the data you want.
from the ffxivcollect faq
yeah no. that's not a lot.
any games that have achievement, people spend time collect stuff
^
this is not ff14 exclusive and never be
Lalachievements lists it as 0.3% (1271 chars out of 426378) so they must be using a different criteria
I know, I just remember playing other games and few people I knew had rare stuff. Could have the wrong friends
A Collector's Guide for Final Fantasy XIV
Interesting, I guess regardless it's an incredibly rare amount of owners among playsrs
Ah its also in endwalker theme a part of it
That's probaly the sb lyrics since Endwalker used pieces from all the themes so far
And there's no official lyrics for that anyways
The lyrics dont appear in the Sb song
Then find the section of the ew trailer it appears in
Hello all!
I'm about to start uploading FFXIV videos. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R21P1DiQOZU - keeping this unlisted currently. would there be any issues with copyright here as I know it is quite strict.
Hello all! In the last few months I have started to play the MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, and very soon I will start doing videos regarding this. I will still play DC Universe Online (currently on a break), and it may be that future videos on this channel link the two games together.
In the meantime, I have done a trailer, showcasing some of the m...
looks good to me
Only specific copy right issues are the songs answers and dragonsong afaik
This has been noted somewhere
I can't remember where
the music at the start is from dcuo, otherwise the rest is from ffxiv over ffxiv gameplay
I didn't watch, but those specific songs have been listed on their streaming policy
if anyone can help me with this, it would meant the world for me T_T
dcuo music over dcuo gameplay, then ffxiv music over ffxiv gameplay
I’ll just play every ff14 song till i find it
see you in 24 hours

What's the bot command to get the tomestones faq? You now, what to spend them on I mean
maybe the file location is messed up?
i tried to reinstall but got that instread
!faq poetics
I'm telling you what ff14 music can cause issues even going ahead
Yeah didn't hear anything like save the world in the ew trailer
is that the cause? i also did add something to the CFG file, still wont work
i wont use dragonsong answers or the other one. used the leviathan trial theme and the shiva boss one
ok before you do anything right click the launcher and run as administrator
i set it to admin yes from the start
Does anyone else get weird alt+tab behavior when playing in fullscreen exclusive mode? It seems to switch into a little window that takes the mouse focus almost immediately again rather than behaving like most alt+tabbed fullscreen things
Go to My Documents > My Games > Final Fantasy 14. Open FFXIV_Boot.cfg. Find the line: BootVersionCheckMode Set that to 1.
did that too
are you on steam?
what is a squadron dungeon? I can send a squadron to do missions, but it doesnt really give me exp?
no, standalone SE one
hmmm then im not sure. im seeing some people restarting the router and trying again. Im not sure how that would help but worth a shot.
also disable your firewall and try again.
!relic
i think it was i just checking file and know onedrive screw ffxiv, so i delete a onedrive folder then all shortcut gone, i restart some return, but not ffxiv, so i say just reinstall it, downloaded the client, login and that
oh so you deleted one of the files in the FFXIV folder?
yea after i cant find the launcer, i just decide to reinstall it from fresh
and there is like 3 firewall, which should i off it?
you mean command mission then yes, that actually a viable way to level alt job up to level 60
all 3 just temporarily to see if that helps. I know you can check the file integrity on steam. Im not sure if there is one for the windows version
turn off then restart or?
does the gear on my squadron matter or is it just glam?
for both squadron missinos and command missions
Hi, need help for 1st raid Crystal tower

how do i play triple triade with friends?
make sure both of you have it unlocked, be in a sanctuary, you get a message in chat log "triple triad matches are allowed in this area" or something, right click the name and "challenge to normal match" or something similar

is there a toggle for HUD?

What are the prizes from Kupo of Fortune that can sell for a decent amount?

Is farming zandor or the raids much efficient/faster for relic farming?
Fates/CEs as long as you get a good instance
Finish at least the fate ones in Zadnor
Then you can stay if you want to keep farming mettle/field notes or finish with raids if yoy really want
CEs are a decent way but if they don't spawn often, it can take a fair bit
but you get to knock out 2 birds with 1 stone cause you also get mettle
depends on what you want more, MGP or khloe's stuff?
I personally just cluster farmed to help spawn the CEs around areas fate spawned
Or the very least pull magitek mobs into the fate zones so they die and go towards spawning CEs
Cause people are lazy In Zadnor and don't cluster farm
Zonureskin Map (essentially 50k gil)
Scroll (can buy like 80k minion)
Scroll (you can buy really expensive minion with it, like 300k gil)
is there a CD on leaving/joining fc?
Few Bozja questions, how can I tell how much of each lost action I have, and why do enemies do so much more damage compared to normal content?
There's a counter in the lost cache
And once you have them on, they list how many uses you have left
@charred gale got it finally, it was ransomware protection, so gotta inlucde ffxiv folder first
And it's an instance where you can grow in power really quickly
Case in point, this tank essence
Oh, thanks for the help
And yeah I have this 1500 potency cure, it seems pretty busted
Make sure you check the enemy's rank, anything that is 4, 5, or Star isn't something you want to fight
Without a group, that is
Glad you got it!

If your aetherpool is synced then it's a low chance to upgrade
Meaning you need to go higher

what is soak
btw @faint flare how do i make it so when i queue for a dungeon it picks the best role, like i seen someone queue as a dps but it joins them as a healer for example
The act of soaking damage, aka stacking or intentionally taking the damage in a structured way
Your role is locked when you que
You can't change your role mid que
You can only change jobs inside pvp
thank u
tell me to buy land for his FC the money owes and in the FC safe or on you?
I'm Bard level 47, but for some reason, I have Bard skills at level 35/40/45 locked.
you have to have the gil on your character
You need to do your job quests, park
They're MANDATORY
Unless there's a "Bard" guild, separate from the Archer guild, I haven't seen any new job quests
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
Look under this
south shroud
The quest that led u to get the bard stone is the bard quest man
Oh...Yeah, I forgot about the quest tracker under MSQ LMAO
When leveling gathering in ARR areas, I get 8 person treasure maps. Does anyone ever do those these days?
Sitting here like "I got 17 levels since unlocking Bard, but only have one Bard skill...wonder why" XD
Cheers
Also, Where's the Harp Bow Glamour obtained?
Or whatever it is that I saw that looks like a Harp Bow
So is there any way to get ingame hints about the locations of the Aether Currents, or do you just see those diamonds and go, "yep, guess I missed a few. let's open up the wiki."
aether compass
there's an Aether Compass key item
Ooooh, that thing they gave you with the chocobo
but for the currents from quests, you just have to look for uncompleted blues 
I can live with hunting down the blues, just wondered if I was doomed to wander the landscape and go over it with a fine toothed comb to get the exploration ones
if you want to skip the explore path, ff14 wiki can guide you at exact location
"faq poetics" gives me the poetics guide but what about allegory and revelations? Got those capped as well and really unsure what to do with them
Revelation is only for gear
Revelations should be used to upgrade your gear on anything that can still be improved
Sell mats from allegory for money or augment exarchic
Endgame tomes aren't used for much
Like poetics are
I see. So basically Eulmore and what city for spenditure?
Only eulmore
Ah great. Less running around
Do all crafting jobs requires elemental shard/cystals to craft things?
Yes
someone knows why i cant chalalnge him too tripple triad? jsut finished his missions and symbol appeared
Every single receipe uses then
And only way to get more shards it to harvest or mine?
complete side quest
Retainers can gather them...aetherical reduction is good for crystals and clusters...can slowly grow shards in pots in houses
Or buy off market
i did
no jsut his
he had two in the hinterlands too
then you have to do 3-4 more quests
ohhh ok
I see. Thank you
???
Random node bonuses
ah foudn out what to do: for some reason i need too do saint mcaiannes arboretum (hard) which i unlocked ins tormblood
no you dont
just complete the side quest with cutscence
like 4 in a row with cutscence
Honestly I'm so annoyed by how overly complicated currencies and gear exchanges are... I bought some gear for my WHM with Revelations so thsoe are used at least. Now the Allegory I dunno how to treat. Also those bunker coins and such are only for upgrading gear?
whats the best way to level a other job, if you are stilll in the leveling phase?
im with my main job lvl 44
msq
Since there's a bigger bonus the bigger the difference is with your main one, it's always best to finish that first usually. For your own convenience. Otherwise MSQ
can I buy Phial for Fantasia for Gil or only for IRL money (appearance change potion)
do i still reach max level if i do the main story quests?
Is there a way to buy precise amount of items instead of whole stock from market?
There is not.
The game doesn't split out individual items when a person lists a stack.
Maybe one day..
You can only get 1 for doing the MSQ of ARR, and then you have to either get them via collectors editions or buy them from the mogstation. You can't buy them for gil.
Should do yea. I did it with my DRG and got to 80 way before finishing MSQ but I did do a few other things, like class quests (those help a lot for skills and such).
Why does ARR part 2 only give you like 5k exp per quest
Every quest that is "at the end" never gave EXP at first, but got it added later. Happens every patcj
Because it didn’t give exp period at first
because it suppose to give 0
All endgame quests are 0 EXP at current endgame, then get added a smal lamount.
So you don't overlevel for the expansion
All the MSQ besides the X.0 quests weren't meant to level you, you needed to be max level at the time they released.
do you guys use a chat callout macro when using living dead on DRK?
I see
I don't use one
How does one put different icons on the macro buttons for console?
no mostly because it's not always predictable when walking dead procs, and how to prime the healer(s) to not instantly mash bene during living dead (which negates the benefit of some time during walking before 100% of hp in healing)
completed shadowbringers on my whm now. PRetty much get carried in all those trials though
use /micon "whatever the skill is named" in last line of the macro
mhm, i thought so as well
Oh I'll try that
but a healer complained i didn't have it
For the subscription.. Is it best to do the entry or standard?
Entry
entry if you dont need multiple same server characters
Not many reasons to do standard unless you're a major alt alchoic
I wanted to use up Allegory for Refining Sand but I can't buy it from Aymark? The fuck do I do now?
That wont mess me up in the future will it? :p
It's always just letter M, on YouTube I saw people have different icons.
can change to standard easy enough (either in mogstation subscription management or using time cards which are the same as standard sub)
It's in the OTHER menu
Ah okie, thank you then <3
Not the Dow/dom menus
the M above the text is where you can select an icon
I clicked on REVELATION other. Goddamnit..
or if you want it to mimic an ability, you write "/macroicon (Ability Name)" as the last line
When you do things like the expert dungeon roulette, you get 40 tomestones of revelation on top of the dungeon one or in total?
Ah!!!! Found it, thanks bunch
on top of
the roulette bonus is in addition to what you normally get for completing the dungeon
daily roulette bonus + dungeon drop (so 90 tomes total?)
What's a general rule of thumb for leveling up my first crafter? Is it just get to a certain thing I don't know if I can say that requires at least a level 20 crafter (from what I've heard at least
Ah cool, thank you! So if you want to farm tomestones of revelation you should at least do the daily expert one I guess. Main scenario and Alliance raid don't give any on their own so you only get 50 there right?
Cause the last 2 dungeons in shadowbringer give 50 revelation, so I was wondering if any of the roulette options was to be done first
I just pick one and go ham until like 25-30 - then move to the next one - will go down a rabbit hole with them though (like me right now)
generally will want to level them based off materials used (which means multiple crafters at once so they share equipment). if you really need a certain crafted thing then one off leveling is whatever but the more one off leveling the more anoying inventory management is
once you hit 25ish you then need to go gather items
(or buy off MB, but I like gathering)
there's a variety of activities that give Revelation if you do them on a level 80, so you don't need to feel tied to dungeons if there's other stuff you'd enjoy more
PotD, Bozja, PvP, etc.
Yeah, right now I'm trying to get like an average of 20 across all my crafters. I've leveled up botany and mining cause they're fun, but I don't like fishing cause it's boring. So it seems I may have to buy all the fishing things I require.
Fishing is for netflix
Hey! So I have a question about relics (doing ARR Stardust, which belongs to BLM):
I've just started the quest where it requires you to meld 75 materias in it, but since they give stats, what stats should I focus if I'm a BLM?
realistically, you will never need the stats of the ARR relic weapon
I'm currently reading the wiki where it says that only level 1 materias can be attached from the start, where they need to be increased further upon more infusions
so you should use whichever materia you can acquire the cheapest
Ah, really?
yeah, the final finished weapon is about equivalent to the Augmented Ironworks weapon
Well given that most of the content looks dated because of expansion stuff, that's a good point I didn't even consider
@turbid marsh Im not sure if im doing it right, but I try to do the GC/Beast Daily Star Hand ins, and then just take it from there leveling each one to max with material on vendor and then go through whatever - Im trying to get a hand to 30 for dismantle or whatever
and you'll replace it with something better by level 55
Really really doesn't matter
About Grand Company Delivery Missions, as someone just leveling and doing roulettes, are there any items I really need to worry about delivering and never getting again? Some kind of one-time quest reward set or something?
If you want to be a super min maxer you can but not even I'm that stupid
Nah, not really
Alright then, thanks for the help 👍
I guess I'll use the ones I had stored just in case
WHAT
Cuz they were cheap
How is your sanity doing
Yeah, I - normally - remember to do my GC hand ins, as the first time I did the one for my gsm it gave like a level worth of exp, admittedly forgot to do them today but I was too busy doing other stuff
Well, wishing the best of luck -and patience- to you, then :P
yeah - its become a lot @turbid marsh all I know is im having fun 🙂 - Im not sure if there are other hand ins to do.
ARR relics are mostly for glamour, I assume 🤔
I can make it worse: only started playing last july

!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
Oh i got melding unlocked i just wanna make sure i dont mess up stat wise
And you follow the meld priority listed
So it isnt a big deal but, i lost my weapon lol. I was dragging weapons around to see what looked better and i somehow deleted my main weapon, and it didnt even give me a confirmation, the weapons just gone.
is there a way to make it so theres a confirmation button? i thought there would have been one, the weapon was a green quality one
Game does give you a confirmation button before you discard anything
^
do Dwarf Tribe dailies require me to have a crafter?
oh, does hitting enter make you discard the weapon then if the confirmation button is up? cause i swore i didnt see one haha
It'll also have a checkbox depending on if it's classified as unique or untradeable or not
yes
so you have two-step protection in place automatically

for HQ gear
