So get running again
yeah but how do we upgrade if we can only play the first 10 does that mean we have to keep replaying it?
Grab chests
You run the set again
you mean like boss guide? don't need that
And open silver chests
nah thats stupid
just run the story stuff blind
No you are
Silver chests upgrade aetherpool
The requirements for he floors are SUPER low
Like +13 to clear everything
then how come he cant do floor 20?
If you're going for chests, you shouldn't need to replay floors really
We just explained
eh, that's impossible
ah right you didn't open silver chest
Open chest, get to higher floors
Or the upgrades went into only one piece of gear
we opened every chest on each floor
Were they silver?
yup
I don't believe it 😂
The upgrades probably were more focused into one piece and not the other
Just run the set again
maybe you just got super unlucky lmao
And open more silvers
This happened to me I made padjali and did t realize how much higher my arms were than armor. Had to start from 1 again to get armor raised
so, the selfish dps are sam blm and mch?
13/13 is what's needed to get to at least 51
Akkk<>>my fishing is capped at 60. is this because i do not own storm/shadow expansion?
Hi guys, i have a problem, i have a level 80 Gatherer's and i have unlocked the Delivery, but every time i try to exchange the Collectability item it does give me only the yellow Script's, am i missing something?
sure, point is im bad at utility so i might as well pick one of them lol
yeah, play what you like
whats the difference in gameplay between them?
i accidentally exchanged the nier tokens for crypt twine instead of dusting, is there any way to exchange em
and be good at it
Yes
you only really need to worry about utility when going into endgame anyway
well SAM is melee, BLM is magic and MCH is ranged
You're capped at 60 for everything without the expansions
BLM = pick a nice cozy spot and spam fire?
is there any reason to keep these or am I just a hoarder?
or are there thechnical windows for stuff?
more or less, yes
and I think SAM requires a lot of planning
Ok,...my fisherman hit 60 before my main job,..heh
Only if you want to do arr relics you'll need tier 1-4 materia
how fast does gear get replaced usually with a new expansion? wondering if its worth getting my 80 jobs BiS before EW or just stick with Augmented crafter gear (520)
In 5 levels
Just like poetic gear
That poetic gear you used while levelling was the old expansions highest ilvl gear
Did i fuck something up? Do beast quests from hw and onwards can get only 3 quests a day?
So we'll be replacing our BiS gear at 85
I see
Vath to be exact
3 per tribe a day
+3 on days you rank up
im trusted, lvl 4 reputation
so no point trying to get all my crypt/ednemorne gear then
And can get only 3
how do you transmog in this game?
!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.
Are there hidden filters on eorzea glamour collection? For example "most liked in last 24 hours"?
do seasonal mounts ever come back?
On mogstation
onto the store when the event runs again, yes
Old seasonal stuff goes on mogstation
okay i see
Theres not way to have multiple glamour plates on the same armor across jobs is there, e.g: multiple glamour on the BiS crafting gear
prae has voiced cutscenes right? because for some reason i don't hear any recently and i'm pretty sure i've heard it before, i checked my audio settings and i don't have voices muted
Link glamour plates to gear sets
PRAETORIUM PepeAgony
Yes, prae cutscenes are voiced
The later ones
The ending cutscenes are
Oh how do you do that?
At the end
how do i fix this 
Keep playing, there’s nothing to fix
is there anything I can do with the green fish aside from selling it?
does that have to be in glamour dresser? Im assuming
im at the gaius part on teh elevator and i know this is voiced but i don't hear it
Nice, ill try when I get home, thanks
best gear stats wise in hw for DRK?
shire
did he begin with ||"tell me, for whom do you fight?" || if so then that's supposed to be voiced, yes
your voice volume may be all the way at 0
iconic
Is there any use for fish? or should I just sell them?
it's not down to 0, i just checked and now im in another cutscene right before SUCH DEVASTATION
Is your speaker on?
i can hear all the sound effects but no voices
@midnight gale https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiMWnG_vWhc heres the voice dialogue
Someone ran Gaius's speech through an OwO translator and I had to.
OG thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/i14a0g/gauiss_speech_but_its_run_through_an_owo/
i sell my fish on the market,..it"s ok money.
actual voice actor btw
Anything I can spend poetics on to sell on MB?
What would be the best place to send music request you think?
I want these 2 music from like my favorite anime to play in the game, lol XD
im trying to fix voiced cutscenes right now so i don't miss out on the voiced cutscenes in endwalker
like i can hear all the music in the cutscenes and the floor stepping sounds
!faq poetics
Can you reobtain the Welkin set? I don't see it in the Calamity Salvager
Need to rebuy from the clan centurio vendor in Ishgard at the forgotten knight inn
Centurio seals if you’re talking about lvl 60
So I need to do HW hunts?
Yes
Cool ty :)
SB hunts count too since those also use Centurio Seals
Any point to rush crafter job quests passed 60 after you unlock manipulation? ( I think thats what the skill is called)
They’re decent experience
easy exp
So it can save on materials/Gil
I see, thank you
which tank has the most dps on ~520?
are there other free ways to change looks than aesthetician?
and least?
war, iirc?
it's like, a matter of 400 difference
the one that plays better I guess
^
we don't know your gear variance as well
520 from what? 530 relic combined with just random armor?
you get 1 fantasia for free when your clear base arr after its only the aestheician or you buy another fantasia from mogstation for money
lets say on e9s with augmented exarchic set
In a skill vacuum the difference is minimal
Also full exarchic isn't exactly comfy for most tanks in terms ofnsks tiers
I melded so much skill speed into my exarchic in prog
i said that as an example but all i'm asking if they are all geared the same which's dps is the lowest of them (GNB is the first i'm pretty sure)
anyone in party chat or anything is slow dong this by myself without anyone to talk to lolz
all melded as they should be, rotation done how it should be
well you wouldnt really gear the tanks the exact same way to begin with
I'm not sure what augmented exarchic does, don't they have more tenacity?
It'd be gnb > pld/drk > war but in such a miniscule amount
You could crit diff it
Exarchic has a lot of tenacity pieces yes
Can you not use Quick Synthesis with HQ materials to make items? Say I've mined a lot of HQ Iron, and I want to make it into Iron Ingots, will they QS into HQ, or do I actually have to do them 1 by 1?
that's why i asked because i did around 3-4% less dmg as PLD than WAR on E9S so that's probably because my rotation is not as clean as it could be
you can but the result will still be random between high and normal quality
Quick synth makes nq items with a small chance of hq
Kill time.matters too acsi
War is a 90s tank vs the others which are all 60s
So their burst aligns better and more frequently with other raidbuffs
Its not a significant deal
yea i know and I understand that it depends on who is receiving single target buffs etc, just wanted to know a rough estimate
Just look at 5.4 logs
At bis
For a more accurate comparison
The 5.5 war buffs wouldn't really have set them off by that much
where do I find that

For instructions on how to install ACT check this command !faq act
Please note this tool supports a software which is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/FFLogs/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.
what single target buff? 🤔
Cards
the WAR just clearly the better player imo
oh, hmm never knew AST suppose to give tanks cards
I guess that could happen
Its good and free rdps during things like ir
ic ic
yeah it could be the case, even though I felt like I did my rotations right
Also pld punishes harder if you miss a gcd in your loop
one more thing, is ACT overlay in-game in Raids etc. allowed to use or it's against TOS?
!faq act
Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.

Is gathering good to make some decent gil?
against TOS yeah
because I read that aswell but every stream I open has ACT
technically against tos, but they wont come after you
unless you use it to attack others ingame
its like fight club
you dont talk about fight club
!faq dpsmeta @ashen adder
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.
so unless I harass others because of their DPS (which is ofc not happening) I'm quite fine with it
If you like PLD, You can do it
partnered streamers use act all the time
don't be down just because that Random WAR has more DPS than you
War could just have better gear than you too
if you use act for self improvment, go ahead
I'm not down, I'm looking to improve
It doesn't really mean their rotation is better
Upload your log to fflogs and plug it into xivanalysis for a surface look at how to improve
ok yeah, can throw question here or #endgame-lounge probably if you want a specific encounter
It could also be crit diff
it's my first time using the external ACT damage-analysis thingy and my Direct Hit Pct is 0,5 while the WAR's was 19,9 so I guess I miss something on my gear 😄
Tank gear has 0 direct hit by default
Inherently tank/healer gear has none of it
And warrior gets free direct hit crits
ah yeah, they don't need DH melding as well
Mine has Skill Speed and Direct Hit capped to a point where its just not in red
yeah, you don't know your stats it means
which is what was recommended in Balance if i'm not mistaken
huhh
You might have too.much sks that it's moved you off alignments for your rotation
I wouldn't think they will recommend max sks
What is the number for your sks?
Wow is that like 2.39 or something
!xivmath skills peed 1878
yeah and 600 more tenacity than average
2.35
Wow
How do you place a wooden loft on the floor and mash a furnishing inside of it?
Is Hella high
idk how I have 0 Tenacity melded in my gear as of now
Probably too much ngl
You've been ignoring the balance recommendation, lol
what quest/questline do i need to do to get the Sharpened Cane of the White Tsar? 
hmm I'm not the best person to give advice to PLD however, but I can share my GNB starter gear if you want to start gearing up..
!faq anima
Exarchic inherently has tenacity in its pieces
they should've had the same stats priority
I read their melding guide and tried to meld according to that maybe I misread something
ty!
You have 0 direct hit bte
Is gathering sti good for some decent gil?
You're at base dhit
I like it because it's very consistent, unlike other high roll ways or even flipping
If nothing has changed you forcibly float up by placing and removing loft from underneath the item repeatedly until its high enough
so replacing a few Skill Speed with Direct Hit Rate would be better more than likely?
Can i ask rotational questions here about salted14?
The priority has always been sks to tier > crit >dhit > det @ashen adder
I just need a little solid income don't aspire to get the "most gil per second"
@solar kindle yes
yeah then choose what you enjoy doing
To tier this time around means somewhere between 2.43 and 2.4
You could just do duty roulette once a day with role in need
Which isn't more than 1320 sks
you can get solid 100k + mats a day
So far enjoy gathering more then crafting
or if you like crafting, just look up market
If you still need to level your gatherers, you can do diadem and it'll still give you some gil also doesn't require much thought
The Balance recommends crit(until red)>sks>dhc (which says filler stat, that's why I thought I don't really need it)
Its the same idea
Have been doing dadem to get 80 but will take a little time
They don't want you to have too much sks
I see, so what number shall I be aiming for regarding sks?
Ah perfect then, remember you can do leves as early as 60 for some good xp gains
you aren't suppose to pump as much sks you wanted
But it's no rush man
So I crafted lv 15 ring but how come I can't desynth it?
Can I get Bozja coins outside of Castrum?
I typically flip crit and sks in order because it feels better to play at the correct gcd tiering all the way through
This gives you 2.4 gcd
I don't like leve that much can u also keep grinding diadem or is it too slow at some point?
Fates and Ces can drop them after doing castrum
Nah u can do diadem to 80 for sure
1320 sks then just go for Direct Hit Rate?
do you mean like RIGHT after doign castrum, or after having done it atleast once?
After doing it once
Max out crit everywhere first
okay, thank you
Then dhit and then det
Do you know Regarding the 150% xp boost is that the max u can get+ 3% from food
I believe so, survival manual and food buff
Ait thanks man I've been trying to get crafting up as well as my friend said it's good money which I believe but Its hard to sustain early on not to mention I find it a bit tedious
alright, I'll definitely lower my Sks by a lot then replace them with Dhit and Det, thanks for the help
Yeah is fine money. You can use the materials to level crafters, or just sell for more income. To get over the boring part i just stream movies haha
how do u leave mid dungeon
I just watch streams or yt
I don't mind the boring grind
Open duty finder and press Leave
As long as u can hit all your casts in requiescat and keep goring blade up. You have enough sks
You'll be penalised if the group is full
Also depends on ping slightly
Everytime I do doL I feel runescape nostalgia 😂
tbh even with this Sks I could barely fit in Confiteor in
Same xD
Really? What is your ping?
You should be using Buffs like Requie in the second weave slot
can i unsync the dungeons for lvl 50 relic?
You can fit it all In at 2.42
Yes
It's usually below 100 sometimes a bit more
ty
Don't weave requiest in the first weave slot
That's bad
Buffs like that go in the second weave slot
Or you're wasting a second of the buff
cast requicast when your gcd is 3/4 refreshed
yeah that's how I tried to do it
hmm
I almsot cancel the Requiescat animation with first Holy Spirit
That doesn't matter
so I'm not wasting any seconds on Req
I'm at 2.41 and i still have like a second-ish spare 
If you're barely getting it in then you're either weaving too early or not exactly rolling your gcd immediately
yeah weird.. I just tried on my 300 ms ping alt
still could make it
It's not tight at all..
yeah probably something wrong on my end
maybe it's not as tight as I thought it is idk
Requicast + 4x HS + Confeitor right?
yes
hmmm
actually, doesn't SKS just not matter here
now we are at floor 30 and once again its saying his gear is too low do i have to just keep making save files?
as I'm trying to get to 1320 sks I just feel how much slot it actually took from other useful materias 😄
since it's a spell so it's recast time is 2.5 since no SPS on pld
Also yeah sks doesn't affect it haha
so yeah
Just checked myself too
you have (super roughly) 1.8-ish seconds of wiggle room
Just learned about the bozja rank 25 buffs. I'm at 16 right now, how much of a grind is it?
if I can do it with my 300ms alt, then you should be able to do it 😂 If not, try to get VPN

Worth doing Zadnor before getting my timeworn artifacts from Delubrum, or?

Ok! Thank you! How is the best way to get the sublime solutions and slithersand?
are there raids with more than 8man groups?
Yes
sublime is from allegory I think and slithersand is from yellow scrips
alliance raids (3*8man parties)
24man alliance raid but they're casual content
why I can't fly in heavensward map?
You need to get aether currents
Spam level 78 and 80 rarefied collectables for scrips
Gil too, if you can spare it.
oh, so alliance raid is easy and 8man is for harder difficulty things?
Thank you! One more question, if I put materia, is there a guide or should I just use all CP?
!faq flying
'How can I unlock Flying?'
Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.
Flying is further unlocked in the expansions through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.
'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'
Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/
Cap cp then fill out the rest
wheres that?
both are easy, only EX/Savage version of it are tweaked in difficulty

Hello, im about to hit the 300k gil cap on the free trial and im wondering; is there sets for crafting i can buy with gil? Im looking online and cant seem to find any lol, just ones that are a mix of quests and crafting with classes i havnt done yet
You can buy vendor gear with gil that would be useful while leveling crafters up to 60
how to see what mounts can be found on board?
But if you already are 60 there really isn't much in the way of vendor sets at that level
there's stuff above 60 for gil but as a free trial player you won't be able to get it
Ah, im a super low level, where would these vendors be located?
I found this, but a lot of these sets require quests to gain them or crafting them which I cant do rn
Miscellaneous section. The list of mounts start with the item “Zu Horn”
so not worth reporting?
No
but I cant solo it either can i
you can
Last one should be a Gilded mount or the Myrotagus
B ranks are intended to be soloable by a lv 80
All cities have a vendor in their market area that sells armor
oh cool ill try
You can pick up < 50 gear from these, there's usually also a separate vendor that sells main and off hands for crafters and gatherers
So umm, I had FF XIV before with free trial but uninstalled it cuz kinda got bored and i reinstalled it but now i get this, does someone knows what should i download or what should i do ? 
Are ocean fishing voyages the PoTD equivalent for leveling FSH?
No because ocean fishing is actually good for xp 😉
You also can't go in whenever you want, you can only go in once every 2 hours for a 20 minute trip
Yo i am on the relic reborn quest. Any level 50 crafters want to help me make the materia enhanced champions lance. I have all the materials.
What item level is aesthete HQ crafter gear?
490
Are you on trial?
I have the full game
Then just buy the weapon off MB
Eyo, nvm, found the link for trial version
I have the weapon but i think i need to enhance it or something. Sorry i'm new lol
to enhance it you can use a materia melder npc in town
just use the exact materia they're asking for
If you have the right materia of course
these blue gem icons = melders
Ah okay thank you
Same with gatherer aesthete gear?
yes
how long do you guys think it takes to unlock eureka hydatos from 0
Probably a week or so depending on how good your eureka instances are
ok ty!
Hello, a friend of mine will start playing FF14, what is the best way to play main quest with him ? (i already did the main quest)
i invite him in a group and let him start quests that i dont have ?
You can go into new game plus
Which will allow you both to run through the same story quests
can i stop new game plus to play alone a bit and then come back ?
Yes
thanks a lot will try it :)
Well most of the challenging MSQ stuffs are instanced
and overworld stuff is easy even for solo player
You can play duty roulette with him I guess
its not about the challenge, its about doing it together
There's not really any hard msq content
Provided you're paying attention and have a level of pattern recognition
Yo anyone else getting an error when attempting to resub?
!faq freetrial
so uh , i kinda wish prepare this for the future since it got discounted, can i actually buy 2 of these (one by one?) and keep it unsended to my characters or i do have to send it first before can buy another ?
is there a time limited seasonal pvp armor right now?
i'm starting crafting now and i'm a bit worried about inventory space. can you deconstruct weapons and armor you don't need anymore like in eso for crafting?
ah, so it works similarly?
how can i keep whispering to a friend whenever i click enter, i have to keep right clickign their name and poressing tell
So I’m going to assume that no one else is having issues with the Mog Station?
yeah, just reach 30 for respective DoH
and you can desynthesis items made by that DoH
use /r [your msg here] , assuming you doin 1 on 1 , it only quick reply the last one
you cannot send it at all
you cannot gift discounted items due to RMT
sweet it worked
as it ingame untradeable as well ? i dont intend "gift" em , just keeping a pair
Where do I go to do the event quest?
moonfaire? starts in limsa, aftcastle area
That's gone
moonfire is over
For like a week now
is outrage in diamond ex physical or magical
you can also ctrl+r im pretty sure
Thanks
magic
If its raid wide it's probably magic
feels like it's physical since it... literally cracks the floor underneath
yes I know it doesn't look it but so is Titan punching the stage so don't question it
And outside autos and the tb diamond weapon doesn't have any physicals afaik

Windows: Open Command Prompt and type ping *insert IP Address here*
Mac: Open Terminal and type ping *insert IP Address here*
You can check
go to cmd prompt and ping 124.150.157.158
Hmm 285 minimum, 355 maximum and 321 average
Meh, that's not really playable for my taste
I hate delays
yeah that aint it chief
The servers are in Tokyo, what did you expect
a miracle
European servers are in Germany, just keep using those
hey I play on 200 avg D;
how long does it take to do the manderville questline? at least until the dance
we out here getting bop'd by titan
is there a list of vendors that sell unique furniture? like ik golden saucer has a few and grand company etc
was this for my question?
Hello, someone is trying to buy FFXIV for me and we are having some trouble finding where exactly to pay for the code for me to receive. Can anyone help us out?
!faq buy
And If you started the trial on steam, you must buy from steam
Thank you
whats the dmg difference between a tank and dps?
like how much more dmg does a dps class do than a tank?
tanks deal about 70% of a DPS
Dps does more
Just if you gotta queue for dungeons, tanks will have somewhat faster queues
healer the fastest wasnt it ?
Ya but they were wondering about drk vs drg
I am looking for someone who wants to give a new player who bought the story line and character boost a crash course on what to start out doing 🙂
level them both?
if i buy the normal pre order for EW , can i upgrade it to collector edition before EW release ?
Ye might as well, usually get lots of exp
gues do tinctures affect lb3 dmg wise?
No.
thanx
No damage buffs from players boost lb damage
Lb3 functions independent of all damage buffs and debuffs
It can't even crit
It’s only buffs and debuffs given from mechanics in a fight on the monster itself
thank u guys for the info
I think only beyond limits effects it
And that's a fight specific debuff
In an ultimate
Vuln up/down does, you can see it in Castrum on Livia and the colossus
It’ll make the LB only do like 10 damage
I don’t think so? Not a situation I’ve heard of.
But upgrading will stay the same price if so
So you aren’t losing out
so my only option is bough whole before release huh ?
Is there a market board in the Firmament yet or no?
no
no
alrighty, thanks
Odds are there probably never will be
do high quality approved grade 4 materials exist in the diadem?
Not even when housing releases?
Since the diadem functionality is probably not going away we'll probably still have a non housing instance
the firmament is not the housing district, that will be a different zone
it's the same map
You cant get HQ diadem mats
but not the same zone
okay
you cant get more of these unless you recruit somebody right? (I'm a recruitee)
Silver feathers are only from being recruited, so those 10 are all you get AFAIK
They're also kinda useless once you're decently far into the game
You can’t get anything exclusive/rare with them, so there’s that.
Tome gear and for some gogforesaken reason halatali weapons
Gold feathers can be spend on exclusive mounts and rare dyes
One of the mounts being a raid boss!
!mount twintania
Bound to eternal thralldom via an Allagan neurolink, this ancient wyvern from the southern continent of Meracydia will remain a loyal servant as long as you possess its identification key.
Calamity Salvager - 15 Gold Chocobo Feathers (Recruit a Friend Campaign) (Premium)
she said she wants the barrel roll mount
Anyone know where I can get the last aether current quest in sea of clouds?
She can do barrel roll
They ain't getting it til you're subbed for a long time
Ishgard
Quest
In the pillars I believe
Ahh okays...thanks. This was confusing me lol
@digital viper that costs 15 feathers. If they only recruit you they won't be able to get it til you've subbed for 210 days
ohh so some are locked behind the MSQ, I see. Thanks again
is there a way to improve tab targeting in the game?
Is 105ms too high to play a Machinist?
Aaand seeing as managarm is another 8 feathers you realistically have to recruit at least 2 players to get all the recruitment rewards
In character configuration at control settings at target you can switch to targeting type 2
but thats about it
okay, will try that out.
Still a mount, gotta catch em all, now excuse me while I slam my head against the brick wall that is pug o12s
Enjoy 😂
is level capped at 60 in heavensward
Hey man, I just got ramuh tonight, maybe my luck is turninf
if you are playing on trial yes
Well yes but actually no
i have standard edition but still capped?
Your level is capped at 60 full stop if you only have up to heavensward
You need shadowbringers
Which is all you have
oh ok thanks
No dlc, no level cap increase
why does the color of my blood gauge bar keep changing?
If its in simple mode, probably to indicate that you have enough to use
is a lot of shadowbringers in the LAHEE zone?
No
thank god
dunno, sometimes it is some bright red, sometimes a blue tint i think. maybe i am color blind?
Most of the zones are evenly ish used. Although the first "2" get more focus since half are locked off until later in the game
Go to a target dummy and screenshot?
Tasteless smh my head
It changes colour after 50 to show you can use bloodspiller
Do you not like Lahee? Then you surely havent seen Soken's performance of Lahee.
Its taken quite the toll on me
I really like the raktika story
The ||ceremony with the nights blessed and their joy at seeing the night sky are absolutely wonderful||
was it because of that rank b rare?
guy question how can i add Lyna into my TRUST ? because on my first ShB dungeon i did not add her. I went in with player
whats a good way to level from 45 to 50?
You can't
Doing msq and job quests
She's only available for the first dungeon in scenario mode
hi guys if i preorder endwalker on steam, will it unlock the 3 expansions automatically?
wait what no no
In November
im at heavensward msq and no more job quest atm :(
Yeah, when it releases
Lahee takes a toll on you? I am annoyed by these irish lads.
got it thanks!
oh men thank you
nasty irish buggers
I was talking about the voice actors for ||pixies||
can anyone in primal help me do a quick run of kugane ohashi (for those that actually have it)
I don't fucking care
would POTD be a good way to level from 45 to 50 if i cant do msq or job?
yeah i'd say so
okie dokie
Odds are you'll probably have to wait til reset or use party finder since most players don't get that far into the quest line
What’s the difference between direct hit and crits?
im just getting bored of running dungeons x_x
DH just seems like smaller crits
Direct hits always do 25% more damage
Ones better than the other and the stats effect them differently
Crits are based on your crit multiplier
Only attacks can dhit
Both can trigger at once
PF was a no go since no one joined after like 20 minutes
As a monk do I want all my materia DH or is there a soft cap
It's a priority
!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.
Crit > dh > det
See +0 section
Could someone lend me the link for the activation key stuff
to unlock the complete game.
I have no idea where to go
I see thank you
Nevermind
are items sold with materia melding in the market board?
Very rarely
Not worth it 99% of the time
ahh I see
Im returning to the game, is it tough to remove materia and remeld it into new gear?
is there a chance to lose it?
oh what?!
7s are 80% and 8s are 40%
If you're returning from a long time ago your old material is also pretty much worthless
Plus the game literally vomits materia at you
Also the game hands out materia like candy in lv80 dungeons

Those are 8s
You can still lose them
But replacements are cheap
Hell cheaper than usual since materia is in low demand
ah okok, I just remember that it was a hassle back then
and that losing it was pretty detrimental
Materia has never been hard this expansion
got it, thanks!!
paying again like 200 crystals ?
Yes
You need a tank and heal minimum
ohhh, i deleted it from my armoury palette , what a big mistake >.<
mb I just saw this on my botanist, why are some of them red?
3 people are fine for maps
Overmelds
lvl 80 gear only or what ilvl ?
Advanced/pentamelding
It's level 80 content
are you able to overmeld through an npc?
Pretty sure map dungeon syncs to like 510 or something
Nope
Go in without at least a lv80 light party you'll die
wtf lvl 80 in HW?
You can't even do zonureskin maps
what classes are best for potd/hoh and other stuff (i think eureka too?)
Roulettes and road to 70
They're all in shadowbringers
i got road to 70
Mch, rdm and gnb for hoh
Eureka, your gear matters more
They're all in ShB zones anyways
is mount speed in water faster than in air?
No?
Swimming and flying is the same speed
Cause they're literally the same
Just underwater
can you use HQ items to trade in for crystal sand?
you can lower it's quality if it can't
What's the fastest way to level 40-50?
Ok, do I need to unlock them thru the msq before I can spam them?
stone vigil is msq, dzemeal and aurum are both side quests
yeah, MSQ and 2 of them are GC's Blue Quest
hey quick on here, what would be the best all around general lvl 80 monk gear? And which stats should I be going for?
Dzaemal and Aurum are blues
!faq balance

anyone who has gotten married using Promise of Passion (Gold) or higher tir. Does it give you the mount right away or is it after completing the quest?
Does buying expansions give you a month sub or is that only first time purchasers of the game itself?
only first time purchase
After completing the ceremony/quest
Boo.
aww a tad disappointing XD
Kinda don’t like how there’s a $15 month subscription on top of buying the expansion, but it is what it is, I guess.
whats the name of this dark wood walls
im trying to get a 2 seater mount to carry SO while she does her quest since im ahead of her in the story

why is it a pain to find levequests for my fieldcraft? I stop at so many and they are blank.
Any advice for doing a encounter for the first time as a black mage other than don't?
going to be doing the ARR interlude content ( so level 50 lock)
i get mine from a little dude at the Atheryte in Limsa Limosa
Bango Zango is the easiest vendor to reach yeah
You can get the $13 sub
Looks like Riviera or Glade
thanks
There's nothing bad about that? You should be fine
i guess not but i'm a little anxious
How do I change mist wards
because it's level 50 and it's the beginning of the start of being immobile turret mage
You were always immobile turret mage.
As you level you get less immobile because you get movement skills
for example
!action aetherial manipulation
you just got this.
i guess but the leylines is looming
$2 difference for what?
Apart from coils and extremes, level 50 content remains casual
and designed to be cleared on the first go blind
you'll be fine
what are the reasons for machinist being better for soloing potd than bard/dancers?
higher dmg than them
higher damage and general mobility
!faq subprice
Reassemble drill is alooooooooooooot of damage
Instead of 8 per server up to 40 characters it's just 1 per server up to 8 characters
Literally no functional difference for 90% of players
i mean mch isn't arguably more mobile than brd or dnc
@coral trench what makes machinist superior in mobility than dancers and bards?
dnc in fact would be more mobile than mch
since dnc has en avant
mch just has the most burst damage, i think
Why didn’t you use lodestone? It lists the NPCs
How do I change mist wards
it's in the thing
Maygi’s POTD 1-200 Handbook (Solo/Party) ~BIG ANNOUNCEMENT~ I am making my debut as a VTuber soon! Please check out my Twitter~ any support is much appreciated! https://twitter.com/MaybeMaygi/status/1427115916580503552 ~ EDIT ~ Looking for a Heaven-on-High guide? Here’s a link to it! ~ INTR...
at the boat or the entrance
go to the ferry and select a different ward
other Ranged DPS don’t have anywhere near as much burst
that is why mch is better than brd/dnc
is because their bust is much stronger
drill is fucking stupid, yo
not because they are more mobile than the other two
MCH is not more mobile than DNC/BRD.
because mobs in POTD don't have as much HP compared to dungeon mobs, drill is just that much stronger
It has more personal DPS overall and a very powerful burst.
you're not looking at DPS, you're looking at burst
i see
how do I get to the 31-60 plots?
use one of the aethernet shards to go to the subdivision
I'm getting kicked in the middle of combat an inordinate amount of times.
Can the raid "The Dragon's Neck" (fight against Ultros/Typhon) drop their TT cards if you do it undersized?
yes
there's not much to do. could be your internet, could be your ISP/bad routing, could be the server you're on is dying
if you're on the east coast we're also still dealing with ida.
Can I do eureka even without the quest for the weapon? Just to grind crystals/light so that I can get multiple relics at once when I have all the items?
Yes thanks sorry was in a duty!
yes, there aren't actually quests for the Eureka weapon upgrades
you can gather the materials anytime
Im just worried that there are materials that wont drop without the accompanying quest
there are no quests you need active
the upgrades are just transactions with Gerolt
you just have to have unlocked the ability to get that upgrade step in the case of the light farms
i.e. unlock the kettle
got it thank you so much
asking because Im currently in pyros with the relic quest but planning to go back to anemos just to break the monotony
and also to farm while im thinking what class to build nex
Hey, just got to lvl 80 but im only halfway through the MSQ, is it worth trying to buy exarchic gear now ?
yes
if i send mail to a friend, how logn does it take?
hey guys, can you re arrange the gear sets list?
yeah just right click/square and move up/down
got it, thank you! @patent citrus
What were the key for opening up Gshade while playing FFXIV again? I forgot, lol XD
i preordered endwalker, so i should get it 3 days before the release date?
how can I level up my guildhests and leveling? they only recommend me level 15 dungeons eventho I am 47
you don't
That’s the minimum lvl needed
Guildhests can be considered useless but you can unlock higher guildhests by completing each of the lower ones
It just adds more dungeon options as you go
but they stop at level 40 or 45
The default key to open Gshade is Home iirc
and are never useful.
Guildhest dead content
That didn't worked?
so how am I supposed to level? I need lv 49 for the story quest but I am only 47
