do not fear, there are guides for all of them
Oh those guides are helpful already KZ o:
Since it'll visually show me how the fight will go, and it's just following the steps
Nope
You're hard set to 430
Only gear thing that helps is haste in augmented bojzan/law order gear
ANyone play bard before?
How do I get the Following in His Footsteps (WHM lvl45) quest from Raya? She tells me to go talk to Alphene, but he doesn't have anything available to pick up.
Where are the lvl 52 job quests
i dont have a thing in my quests but im supposed to get pitch perfect and wanderers minuet
!faq whynojobquest
Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in
, you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.
Sanson.
Who was the one who talked to me about Textools? I got it installed and i wanna know how to use it
In Foundation.
It's a level 45 job quest.
that wasnt for you
Oh
Alphene isn't part of the whm lv45 job quest
Follow in his Footsteps is praying at several locations
I don’t suppose anyone is on the Crystal Diablo server and nearby Zanr’ak/red labyrinth just south of little aka mhigo? If someone is would I be pushing my luck to ask if you were also a healer or had a revive potion? I as a blacksmith got caught in the middle of a high level fate and the mobs killed me before I could get away. Bentbranch meadows is so far away, and I don’t have enough Gil to teleport back.
What does this symbol mean?
Hunting log
it means its part of your hunting log
kk
Idk who it was or if it was even anyone from here or just a rando, but thank you so much.
i'm having a little trouble with the weaver level 25 quest where i have to craft a bolt of hq undyed velveteen. is there a specific rotation i should follow? i usually end up running out of crafting points
my gear is pretty good too, i think

what to spend my allegory stones on when I already have my set and weapon? Some mats that I can sell on MB?
Yes
what's the difference betwween duty completion and practice?
is practice not recorded?
Do you have Innovation? If so, make sure you're using that to increase the usefulness of your Touch actions
@desert ravine practice is under the impression you're progging and not trying to clear within that session / pf
how to play bard music?
duty completion assumes you know what to do and want to definitely clear it
from midi file
oh i see, im learning a lot on this duty finder wwords. thanks
download the bard midi player, you can google it, it's like the first thing
you then upload midi files to the program once installed
yeah, still getting used to doh abilities. when making the bolt, should i use the hq materials too?
Yes it helps
Yes, the more HQ materials you use, the higher your HQ bar starts (up to a certain point)
It can make HQing a craft much easier
yay, i did it; thank you lol
can anyone help me find some info? mainly i wanna know what the proper stat prioity for paladin is for materia melding
Congrats! The more you practice with crafting the easier it gets. In general it gets A LOT easier to HQ crafts after 50 because of the level 50 ability you get.
so im on mac trying to play with an xbox controller which works with geforce now and any apple arcade games but it wont work for FFXIV can anyone help?
For High End Duty Finder it's basically the difference between learning and farm parties
It's basically useless for NA due to how most raid groups form via PF
can someone explain why i cant put on the dwarf armor i put into a glamour plate?
Your current equipment is too low level
Can't glamour high level stuff on low level gear
You need a headpiece + a piece of gear that's higher level than the dwarves mythril stuff
where do you find information about the meta of the game? like on wow we have icy veins and wowhead to tell u things like stat prioity does ff14 have the same thing?
!faq balance
eh, ffxiv doesn't quite have the meta wow does as it's fairly balanced
!faq meta
Unlike wow, Devs know how to do their job and balance the game
what im concerned with atm, is i just hit 80 got a set of 510 crafted gear and wanna slot in materia and i dont know what the best stats are so i want to find that out
ah, i see
what job is it?
Balance discord linked above has meld priorities
^
i think paladins prioritize crit or dh. could be wrong
Was there an equivalent of bicolor gemstones in stormblood and if so what happened to them once ShB came out?
Fck
Is there a webpage that allows me to put down markers and job icons to show my static where they need to stand on bosses during a certain phase?
Well, if they stick around they're still miles better than gc seals
does the dwarf armor reflect your chars eye color as a lala?
no
whys my dwatf helm eyes black
https://ff14.toolboxgaming.space/ @steep pagoda
if you /visor with the dwarf helm on it turns off the yellow eye glow
BLESS
Does anyone know where I can get icons from the game like the Extreme Trial icon, dungeon icon, etc
Am I able to do the 14 and 15 collab stuff right now?
event is in like a week and a half
I reached level 80 on WHM and Gerolt won't give me my job gear. Not even after logging out and back in
Have you done the Healer Role Quest?
!faq rolequests
What are Role Quests?
Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.
At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.
I can't find where I left off!
No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.
Tank Role Quests
Healer Role Quests
Physical DPS Role Quests
Magical DPS Role Quests
Ohhhh I forgot about them. Thank you
Question to fishers. How to catch up big fishes? Aka !!! fishes? I tried to catch one four times but its all fail despite having full 500ilvl gathering gear. The fish in question is the Matriach from ARR so gear shouldn't be any problem to any degree...
it gives you the message not enough gathering?
Nope
The fish gets away...
just this
how to display ingame time?
Yep
Alright... this is going to be quite a challenge...
does anyone know who to talk to in eulmore to augment a piece of crafted gear to 520?
ty
Timed node, I think
Check your gathering log
if it says ??? then it's on a timed node in that zone
if i queue into a single dungeon do i also get matched from those queuing from roulette and vice versa
Yes
👍
technically, whole purpose of roulettes is to facilitate people doing dungeons for the first time
understood, in queue for a long time now and it was making me think... but its off peak times in my area too
ofc depending on what you're doing specifically
if it's a duty that's not required for MSQ, logically notably less people will have unlocked it for roulette

is it worth doing ishgard levequests?
What in-game activity would be easy enough so you can watch anime while doing it? (with subtitles)
Leves are only good for crafting and gathering
crafting with macros
im doing crafting and gathering
what is magicked oilcloth for? (from levequest)
So how I go about getting gear at lvl 50? I wanna do this msq but its gated behind a dungeon I can't yet enter
What's the fastest way to Rank an FC up? been doing deliveries, does it give different points if i craft lvl 80 compare to lvl 50 stuff?
Do you also get yellow scrips from turning in items at the firmament?
Can I get Shinryu Scale from desynthing this?
If you have 335 desynth skill, as it says there
there's a higher chance
I don't know the actual chances myself
Oh okay thank you
can any mahjong experts help me understand what this number means? i know if theres no number mean full closed hands (like seven pair yaku), but on pure straight and outside hands got number what does that mean? does that mean i cann have at least 1 open meld?
how do i get into SFW RP on ff14?
wheres the best/easiest place to gather collectables for the 300 achievement?
How do I get here? What is the prior mission to unlock
su uh, i kinda sick diadem gathering, can anyone reccomend me what to grind/farm from 75-78 ? (goin grind coffe beans for 78-80)
Just got to find the last npc. Trying to get the level 80 gear weapon from the questline
That means it’s only worth one Han if you achieve it with a Pon/Chi/Kan
facet quests if you haven't done them yet, otherwise timed node collectables with leves between
Srry if its been asked but what time is the live letter on Sept 18th?
so no brainless grind target ?
The eye with no number in it means it must be achieved without a pon/chi/kan to be valid
not really?
are coins from nier raid, still weekly? or can you run as many times you want in a day?
run as much as you want
aahhh i see, so its still possible to have 3 open melds forming pure straight (achieved with a pon chi or kan) and get a 1 han correct?
The game told you
did you get the gear from grenodlt
Grendolt
Did you get the level 80 gear from Grenoldt?
equip the free ilvl 430 gear the game gave you
That guy who blocked you in the story a few quests ago
Gane told you afterwards that you unlocked his forge
where looking leve 75 ? crystarium ?
yes
70/71-80 leves r at crystarium

Thanks guys, completly missed the Grenoldt gear
a little help here i just did alphascape 4.0 im trying to unlock UWU what do i do now?
Hi, i have some question about Delubrum Reginae , is that need player find the party or solo is well on this quest?
it is a group thing
Uwu needs o8s cleared
is that eden stuff?
ok thank you, guess i gonna find the stuff first
btw Ive almost finished SHB, should I start doing some endgame activity like dailies when I finish? Or should I keep cruising through the 5.1+ msq?
er not alpha, sigmascape
O4S unlocks UCoB. O8S unlocks UWU
Where would I go to get npc's for my housing? I only know of the Namazu's.
Independent Sutlers in the housing districts for the normal/allagan node ones
ananta beast tribe vendor for those
ahh i see now thank you
Thank you.
does anyone know how many minutes you're locked out for if you type the wrong password several times? the popup only says "several minutes"
Anyone else having login issues? Neither the game nor the mogstation wants to accept my password.
i realised too late i had numlock on my laptop which causes some of my letter keys to type numbers..
30 minute try again later?
where can i ask for help on a raid ?
can ask here i guess, maybe end game discussion?
its a little more nuance
we're doing binding t5 and a DPS just rage quited
its taking a while for someone else to queue up
use party finder
so i was wondering where could i shade the duty
instead of duty finder
can you use party finder while inside a duty ?
No
or get someone to message their fc from inside the duty for help
personally i would use party finder for coils
so it might be worth trying that after you're done with this
No sane people A) que for coils and B) has join in progress on
yeah so it's best to have people message their friends on discord or fc members in game
just leave and go in with party finder
you won't have a good time with duty finder for coils
duty finder has been pretty active
yeah but if someone leaves for pf
you can just put up recruitment again
instead of requeue
hey does blessed harvest apply to collectables?
ty
im almost certain it does not
collectables have changed enough that you can't use regular skills on them anymore
not that you could have in the first place
cool thanks
is there like a tier list for exp recieved from each roulette
Msq, alliance and levelling are top 3...normal mode and trials are nice cause quick...50 and guildhests are shit
Leveling > all in terms of total reward
However the others do provide a decent chunk for your time
Especially alliance roulette, but also Frontline pvp
which pieces of equipment can go in the armory?
Is there a way to use the NG+ to try the beginning from a different city state?
No
Any equipment
Unless you mean the armoire
In which case it's reserved for special achievement items, mainly
Hrm. Randomish question, do I just need the logograms to get access to the elemental armor or do I also need to have progressed my relic up to that level too?
is there anywhere to stable my chocobo so I can change its feather colours... when I'm not in a free company?
Well I am in a free company. A solo one, that doesn't have a house.
So I can't stable it ofc
@halcyon radish If you have an apartment somewhere you can use the stable outside it
you need the relic up to pyros yeah
I don't have an apartment either x.x
i don't think you'll need the pyros relic to actually purcahse the armor but at the bare minimum it needs to be the finished pagos relic
@outer muralDrat, thats what I was worried about, thanks!
@halcyon radish They cost 500k gil and are easy to get
I'm aware, I gotta go pick up my gil from my retainer and grab an apartment anyway
quick question what do the doh/dol's do?
Craft and gather
which should I start first?
if you want optimal levelling then all of them at once and level them all in increments of 5 since they all share gear (Crafters and Gatherers have their own sets shared sets between both)
If you want to look into only one or whatever, while this isn't optimal and you might run into crafting roadblocks, I'd suggest Culinarian / Botanist for the leve trick at level 80
otherwise if you don't really care, pick what looks fun
whats the order in what job should use limit break
in dungeons? should always be caster/p-ranged at the last pull or whenever its available
In dungeons the best use is caster or ranged LB against a large mob pack
can be melees on a boss way before it dies if you don't have any casters/p-ranged
With the fashion report is the augmented shire and the regular shire stuff interchangeable?
Against single target, melee dps
healer lb3 is good for picking up multiple people in a raid, but otherwise its never used in dungeons
Healer LB3 is only used to raise the whole party if things are going bad
and tank lb3 has very niche normal content use
Channy too fast

So i just came back from a small break to find the small ass FC i was part of to have disbanded
I have full controll of the FC now and am set to master
Should i just kick everyone and use FC chest for storage?
Only downside is i cant join another FC
What's BiS for a level 60 FSH
Belive you can find some good gear in Grand company?
GC only goes to level 50
ah
Ah, the guide I'm using for FSH leveling says ironworks, which I don't believe is obtainable
Yes
Shouldn't really worry about bis for gatherers until max level anyways.
ironworks is obtainable
for crafting/gathering, its a crafted gear set
but if you buy from the marketboard its likely to be a bit expensive because most people dont craft it these days
and if you're crafting it yourself, then its going to be a pain
Thanks and did I just need to equip the items or do I need to remove the other stuff?
do we have a channel for posting referral codes?
Is there any benefits to joining FC other than Storage?
FCs can activate buffs like more combat xp, discounted teleports, etc.
Alright fair
But if i am in controll of a solo FC
is there any reason to join someone elses?
could also just grow the one you have
Do I lose a significant amount of dps if I’m double weaving on a monk instead of single?
where am i supposed to store all my blue gear when it gets old? The armoire seems to only take the class gear so far
Can use your glamour mirror thing
If you no longer need it for alt classes nor want it for glamour, your GC will take them off your hands for company seals, which are useful for various miscellaneous items (I usually buy GC instant travel tickets or ventures), and the Doman Restoration will let you turn in a certain amount per week for gil.
the glamour mirror needs a prism per item right
Yes you can get those with company seals
just came back to the game trying to log into my character on aether
but for some reason when selecting worlds i cant choose aether?
nvm nvm nvm omg im dumb
Nymeia Potpourri Seasonal Miscellany one time use?
I'm newer to the game.. is it one time use?
Yes
Ok ty
It takes 1 item per use
Is ffxivquicklauncher safe to use? Kinda weird having a 3rd party launcher but the check MB anywhere seems too good to pass up
So... I have a question, how do I make my chocobo black? I used the Chocobo Colour Calculator, but I messed up somewhere in the order and I got Kobold Brown, I used the calculator again to try to get Soot Black, but then I got Deepwood Green, I used the calculator again and now I got Kobold Brown again
What should I do?
Soot Black is also one of the hardest ones to get right
So then I just have to keep trying?
If you really want the color yes
Yes
Ugh, thank you
when am I allowed to continue doing the summoner training, once I've completed all the basic stuff?
What is the easiest class to do floor 1-100 solo.. Not going after Necromancer...
Is there good guides for just 1-100
For summoner, it's MSQ locked as the other egis you summon are based on the primals @placid sage
All jobs can very easily do 1-100 solo
It's not hard in the slightest
what msq was it?
Just max aetherpool and you're good
which is the easiest.. i died on floor 20 to insta kill mockingbirds....
The ones where you fight the other primals
Then dodge their aoes...nothing low floors kills you
I think I already fought the primals
no because that was like 15 levels ago
Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in
, you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.
why is there a faq for everthing
before the dawn is still ARR right?
how many aetherytes can i favorite?
is there a way to know which of the delivery npcs i still have available deliveries?
Do Durability Draughts affect gear durability while crafting?
m
press control u, then custom deliveries, then click on a client
thanks
3 and you dont have to un favorite, just choose the new one and it will help you remove the least favored
i have 4 though
Companion app as well
ohhh
yea i just doublechecked
but ty for the info
i was worried how removing would work
I was worried the same, turn out it pretty user friendly
best way to farm Allegory?
matoya spamming?

when is OCE server releasing?
after xpac launches iirc
6.1 or later
nov 23rd
It's not the expansion launch
i heard its free account transfer?
They explicitly said after
The Oceania data server is expected to go online around the launch of the Final Fantasy 14 6.0 update and the Endwalker expansion, which are set to arrive on November 23.
it was delayed due to covid iirc
They explicitly stated after at fanfest
transfer to new servers is free and you get a gil bonus at a certain threshold
ohh i havent seen ff
They WANTED it for launch
not sure if your current server needs to be preferred
does every new expansion cost $$ ?
what's the easiest way to farm yellow scrips before level 70? outside of custom deliveries
yes
Yes
its like WoW
Expansions are always 40$
but they only come out every 2~ years
ok
the expansion gives u shadowbringers as well
i heard FFXIV cast is slower than WoW? correct me if im wrong
2.5 base GCD
the systems are difficult to compare because the game gives you plenty of off GCD actions to fill in the gap
but unlock many MMO, XIV has a lot of OFF global cooldowns.
so it feels more fluid as you level up
ok
You get off globals to weave inbetween the gcd
You don’t want to be too fast with some classes
I did not play WoW but iirc it has near like 1.5 GCD timer.
It ruins rotations
or a 1.0GCD
A chunk of your abilities aren't on the gcd which can be freely used inbetween
so FFXIV is better than WoW?
personal preference.
That's both a loaded question and not descriptive enough
need better graphics on FFXIV i reckon
They approach stuff in different ways
WoW also has a lot more skills than XIV does, from what I've seen
if you want a meaningful answer give us more to work with
Is it worth it to get a house/apartment?
So while we're weaving some skills inbetween our slower casts, they have more skills to use more often.
(in theory)
what server is best for OCE players at the moment?
Most are on JP with tonberry or kuja
Right now you're kind of out of luck but Tonberry
don't expect the warmest of welcomes there though.
Or suffer through high ping on NA servers
is that in JP language?
Yes
or can i change to ENG?
But it's mixed because of the amount of OCE players there.
Yes but there's a chunk of English people thete
You can play the game in your own language
For anyone with a Rank 9 Chocobo - I'm not at full 4* (4*x4, 1x3 *) but when I feed - Speed and Stamina? Or do you sprinkle it elsewhere.
what about NPC? can they be changed to ENG?
The language is set to your client language
But you should expect other players to have preference in their spoken language
The data centre is just who you're playing with
ok
discord mainly for english players i assume
So in XIV, you will see everything in your language of choice, but players can be chatting in a different language
The issue with Tonberry is that they are the JP servers, but because JP is the closest to OCE, many OCE players go there.
This leads to two very different cultures mixing abruptly. I see a lot of JP players unhappy with the OCE players in the Elemental DC.
So if you go there, don't expect too much chatter, either at all (JP culture) or in English.
that means if im in Tonburi server i can still choose ENG as language in NPCs?
Yes
.
just dont talk to them
Iirc the oceanic DC is scheduled for 6.1
Tonberry is just the server location and main demographic, it doesn't mean the game is suddenly a Japanese import game.
So if you have your game set to dutch
it will all be in dutch
Just show respect
if French, all in french
etc.
But what PLAYERS type, will be in whatever language they are typing in.
what is service account?
The NPC won't be all Japanese because you are in JP DC
i am getting the free trial but it says my account is currently service account
so i cant get free trial

wth?
Then you bought the game before
no i havent
tanks and healers spam dungeons while dps alts do deep dungeons right?
since dps queues for dungeons are unfavorable
Deep dungeons are an alternative, yes.
is diadem best way to level land jobs?
You can still queue for dungeons and do other things (fates for example), or level via Squardon for sub 61 content.
adventure squadron works for hw dungeons too?
not every dungeon but yes
AI still poopy
!faq freetrial
Do note that if you've used the free trial before or on alternate platforms, you can't use it again on an existing account
So if you played during the 14 day trial period, that counts against you
Hi! I'm hella new to the game and I'm looking to play an easyish class
any recommendations?
whm
yes
Any of em
All the classes are complex at level 80
How do I unlock Rowena in Stormblood? Im sitting on 1600 poetics and want to make sure i dont waste/burn them if Rowena's already unlocked. I just unlocked Raghr's reach.
After you finish the entirety of base Stormblood
Beat stormblood

F2P player here that is debating to swap to live servers, and i was trying to figure out whether it was mathematically cheaper to buy collectors, or Starter & SB i stumbled across the following statement from SE:
FINAL FANTASY XIV: Endwalker ($39.99 USD) includes all prior expansions with the purchase, including Shadowbringers, Stormblood, and Heavensward.
Do i Read this correctly as Buy ARR/Starter Version, Pre Order SW and Get add content that came before EW, included in the Pre-Order?
And if that is correct, does it work as of right now, or as of EW release?
Thank you.
!faq buy
So no point in me holding on to them. TIME TO SPEND EM ALL ON RELIC WEAPONS
As a weaver how do you open up the crafting menu? I'm on pc
N
Thank you!
any tips on what class to play as a starter?
Is there a step that needs a fuckton of poetics in ARR relic?
whatever you like the look of
You wanna heal, tank or dps?
Also Gladiator and Marauder are tank, Conjuer is healer, rest is DPS
Monk
Bard
Eventually they are all gonna be pretty busy, but yeah, Monk or Ninja
paladin technically has cast times but once you get to a certain level you ignore that thanks to an ability
Especially poping mits as GNB
gunbreaker and warrior have a good amount of weaving
Yeah
what is weaving
Personally I'd recommend tank, because you can spare more of your attention to learning the dungeons and game mechanics
you have abilitites on global cooldown, and abilitites that aren't
Then you can pick up a DPS job on the side
so you can use a global cooldown then an ability that isn't on global cooldown
Jobs in this game have 3 types of skills: weaponskills, spells, and ability
ye
Weaponskill and (most) spells triggers you global cooldown
Like a turn in turn based RPG
Ability are skills you can use while global cooldown is... Cooling down
bard is one of those exceptions lol
Global cooldown, aka GCD, is 2.5s
their songs are spells, probably from back when they were casters
But it can get shorter as you get better gear or use certain Job skills
where can i download the game?
monk and ninja have the shortest global cooldowns
Ninja, for example, has a skill that massively speed up their GCD
the website doesnt show download button
!action futon
!action huton
Reduces weaponskill recast time and auto-attack delay by 15%.
Duration: 70s
Mudra Combination: Jin→Chi→Ten or Chi→Jin→Ten
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
Reduces weaponskill recast time and auto-attack delay by 15%.

Mudra Combination: Jin→Chi→Ten or Chi→Jin→Ten

But that's the basics on GCD and weaving oGCD (off GCD, ie Ability)
who do i exchange high allagan aetherstones with in mor dhona? im having trouble figuring it out
you might have to search for the free trial
or download it via steam, whatever is easier for you
@untold willow I'm almost sure that it is a crafting material
But you can use Garlandtools (website) to check
oh that may be why
what is garlandtools?
So, best way to farm Allegory?
can u add friends while in a dungeon? or only outside?
third option being lv80 dungeon?
only outside
Yeah
And only by searching their name right?
Alternatively you can do ex trial farm party
gotcha ty :)
yes though hunt trains will be much much faster
But those are only every so often?
The earlier ex like Titania or innocence should be very easy given the gear we have now
Innocence has easy mechanics
Titania needs more coordination but that one is also not too ba d
So roulette
Hunt
Ex Trial
lv80 dungeons
I'll delete if we aren't allowed to talk about this stuff here but how much of a risk is there of getting banned for using xivlauncher and mods from that?
I know it's not allowed but is it ever enforced
As long as you are not using it to harass or cheat
You are fine
And obviously don't talk about it in game
I'm gonna assume yes, combo mod is probably no go
The biggest topic on this is damage meter
If you have to ask, most likely.
So I cannot say much about anything outside of damage meter
Damage meter is fine but don't use it to harass players
Or even mentioning it to others
Feel free to use it for self improvement for yourself or your raiding group
As little as "you did ok, low parses tho" could trigger people and get you banned lol
But do note that SE always have the right to take action, even though they probably won't
Yeah for sure
To be honest, once you played the game long enough, you can tell when a player is lacking, like no ability going out, or incorrect AOE rotation, or massively delayed buff (their 60s group buff slowly getting out of sync with your 60s group buff) etc
Don't need a damage meter to see who is under performaning in those circumstances
I know but something as simple as that (perhaps not the exact words) is enough to cause a ban, if ever deemed necessary.
Personally, I think unless it's for screenshot purposes, you're probably better off playing safe than sorry.
Instead of like these WoW streamers injecting their XIV game like it's Skyrim.
Yeah, agree
I just wanna say that this is not enough to get you banned
especially if its a first time offense
worse case is going to be talked to by a gm
It's against ToS, just because the odds that SE take action are super low doesn't mean it's 0%.
So I will suggest people just don't dabble in the "forbidden arts".
Interesting, still, don't bring up parse or damage meter though
Ngl one of the things I miss from wow is having all the mods and ui changers and weak auras. Makes life easier.
They're (imo) unneeded in XIV. You can customize your UI plenty.
Not really interesting in the parsing atm
XIV already have enough QoL built in so you don't really need any QoL mods
I don't even know if any exist
I know that with weakaura you can basically make any UI design you could dream of. But it's really not needed.
I've seen some WoW streamers add raid frame to their client because they want it so similar to wow.
Can't adjust.
I was told that wow at one point, have no quest marker on mini map or maps
I've seen add ons that basically "do" mechanics for you.
I like being able to have customized displays for buffs and resource bars and cooldowns
Yup, Vanilla. iirc it was put in for Wrath.
is max bonus xp +100 percent? I think I had that before I got the +30 percent ring and now it's still +100 percent
Like my buffs that I have to reapply being so small in the corner of the screen sucks. I want a large bar that drains out
there's no practical maximum other than what you can actually reach
it's frankly, info overload for this game.
you can do plenty with the built in UI customization.
you can increase UI element sizes
^
The max is not 100, but some bonus aren't shown
and also separate certain UI elements to adjust them
Ah I see, ty!
I forget to reapply it tho. Draining bars are easier to see and remember than just number counting down
you should probably sit down and actually mess around with the HUD layout editor
I've changed it around and I'm fine with it now
I just wish I had more total overhaul options
Most people told me my wow ui was cluttered and messy but I liked it because I had all my info I wanted large and right near the middle of the screen. Hard to miss things
I'm trash so it made it easier 
Can do that with XIv without addons
is there any way to convert a estate hall permit from lavender beds to a mist housing permit or am I just stuck with this permit that I can't use?
buying another house?
I transferred from another world so I have the permit from the lavender beds house that I had on that world
are those sellable on the MB? i dont remember
I just got a mist plot in my new world but I suppose it's not convertable
I think it's bound cuz I used it
Ooh
on my last world
if not then i dont think there is
I thought you meant the plot
ooo okay thanks
guess I just sell it for 9k to shop vendor since I doubt I'll ever move to lavender beds
If it says UNTRADABLE then you can't MB it, but can trash to vendor.
You can't exchange it for a different one though
afaik
Hello everyone, I am a returning player (or trying to) I just bought Endwalkers on my PS5 but I only have expansion up to Stormblood.
After reactivating and logging in, it seems I’m still stuck on Stormblood. Will I not be able to get Shadowbringer content until Endwalker launches?
!faq buy
which one did you buy? 
yes, endwalker only gives shadowbringers when it releases because pre-order is not the full game code
Thanks it seems I should be able to get access. I paid for Endwalker digital collectors(?) edition (the $60 one)
it just flags your acct for pre-order bonus goods and early access
Oh ok
tbf if you just started, you won't even be in stormblood by the time EW starts so that's fine 
debatable, theres still 2 months till endwalker
Unless you nolife 
I mixed up on my precious reply.
Not just starting I was quite a bit into Stormblood when I dropped off due to RL stuff
ahh
Think I was caught up till the second omega wave (normal)
So I guess I don’t have much left to catch up till then. I guess I could throw another 20 at the Shadow Bringers expansion, already tossed 15 at a month.
buying the game is the hardest content the game has to offer 
Buying from PS store really makes it confusing if things have even been applied to my account 😅
is there a checklist I can use to figure what duty finder stuff Im missing?
!faq contentunlock
https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/e9rclq/duty_finder_checklist/
this seems a little outdated but can check it out.
(has up to shb at some point) so spoilers possibly
which job has the peloton spell?
all of the physical range jobs, so bard/dancer/machinist
!fr
does this mean it will start in 4hrs?
yes
aah so I can get those items ready and wait 🙂
the fully updated report guide from kaiyoko is posted at the same time the actual submission goes live
^^ thanks for info
no, these items are from lat week
you will need to wait until the timer to get the correct item guide
aaah
then you can also submit it then
okok
so i can get those and submit now before 4hrs it reset or already late for the week
How do i reduce size of peoples names
this week's FR already started
i am back after 2 weeks wanna do FR havent submitted this week too so above image is for current week and need to submit in 4hrs and after that it will change to next one am i right or i got confused again ^^
as I said, this guide is outdated
the new one already started
so last week's is over
If you grab these items, it will not work because it is from last week
just wait for this week's FR guide and do that
you will need to wait until the timer up there is done so it updates to the new guide
then you can grab the stuff from the new guide
at the same time since the guide is posted, that means you can also actually submit it
❤️ glad i asked hehe thanks a lot for telling, excited for the car mount coming out soon
Hey, so i'm editing my UI but I would like to be ablet o preview some of my UI parts that I can't while sitting on my house. Like, how do I know how the Party list will look like if I'm not in a party? Is there any way to show a placeholder UI?
i bought the game and when i click on the download URL it says not found
please help
which platform u got the game on?
steam or windows
windows
aah ok wait will get u a download link
ty
In the HUD layout menu, there should be buttons you can press to display HUD elements that would be present during different activities like duties
Oh I know about those ones, but I can't actually see them right? Like, if I'm not in a party there's no way for a 'Lorem Ipsum' kind of Party List to appear so I know what I'm doing instead of having to join a group
sadly no you can't preview stuff but it gives you a decent indication of the actual size
you can eyeball it but that's the best you're gonna get bar doing it in an actual instance
Aight, thanks
the gear thats from msq that i converted into seals, i can never get them again if i want it for glamour?
you'll have to obtain them again
yeah but what im asking is are they unique in the fact that i cant obtain them in other ways?
nope
not unique
MSQ usually provides you with old tome gear, or crafted normal gear
can get em again
how about the lvl 50 job gear that i got, i think i also got rid of them
can i still get those appearances
you can purchase them from the calamity salvager
yeah i was just afraid that some items that i scrapped away were 1 time only and that ill never get the appearance again if i wanted it for glamour
pretty much everything can be reacquired
either by doing content again
or if its a unique quest reward it can be bought again from the calamity salvager
whats the difference with vintage?
what does it mean
it's a higher level
with a slightly different appearance
theres a i50
and i90 version
is it like a different recolor?
yea
i see
theres also an augmented dyeable version
Dancer's skill ceiling is not super low right?
If you are a good Dancer you can still optimize some stuff?
Nice
much of it is reacting to procs correctly
It's just that I don't really like the Aesthetic of Dancer, but I really like the gameplay
are u guys able to solo unsynced stuff from hw or would we have to wait for endwalker gear
we can solo some things from HW
Also it's likely that if you can't solo it now you still can't solo it in EW
like we can solo most of regular alex and trials
Since EW comes with a stat squish
all hw exs have been solo'd
No idea how it will be implemented
all of the ex's are possible albeit Sephirot is RNG on if you can because of his mechanics
savages are definitely hit or miss
a good portion of savage alex is possible, though some are statistically impossible
like A9S
doesnt stat squish only lower values for both sides
it shouldnt impact gear checks right
No idea, maybe
it can still affect it depending on how they stat squish
thats how it works in wow
The rumors are that Lv 1-50 will stay the same, 51-80 will be squished
Aye guys, I played this game years ago and am coming back. Apparently I had a level 60 black mage. But I have no idea wtf is going on, what any locations are, what AT ALL is going on in the story, or where I was quest wise. What in the world should I do lol. I am so lost.
They said they were going to make sure everything scaled correctly and based on how they’ve managed to balance the game to this point I wouldn’t be worried.
ARR and HW stuff is easier synced than it was then
Where start, what is important to know / etc
we don't know the precise stat squish things
there's no definitive answer on if it's actually going to make unsync either hharder or easier
chances are that, while level 90 stats are relatively higher compared to content that is getting lowered, the actual stat difference btween something like 60 vs 80 now might be bigger
Yeah I think all syned content will be fine, Unsync can get a bit more funky tho
do MSQ
just follow the main scenario quest marker on the top left by default
you can enable it in your UI settings if you have disabled it prior
So I think I already progressed REAL far into the msq when I was playing before. Is there a way I can restart it to get back up to speed?
you can either do new game +
oh! I think thats what I need
to revisit the stories
where do I do that?
ah I googled it, I think this is exactly what I need
gonna be a bit of a timesink cuz the story is long af if I remember correctly
but its gotta be done lmao
If you're lazy, you can also just skim through the unending journey in the inn
talk to wistful whitebeard in western thanalan
What level do i need to reach to play instrument for Bard class?
30
to unlock the quest for it if you havent done it yet
you just need lvl 30 archer to unlock bard
bard comes with performance
Also leveling from 1 to 50 now is a lot faster compared to in ARR or HW right?
yes
Y’all when are we gon be able to visit other DCs?
Oh but it’s like guaranteed to be soon right? Or was it a rumor
Also I would personally say it's really unlikely we will be able to DC visit before EW
they said before endwalker
they confirmed it was coming at some point in EW
And it's definitely not gonna be together with EW
but we dont know when exactly
Raubahn Ultimate
Oh bet
yeah
im not gonna take the day off this time round
Hmmm I still doubt it can be before EW
i got burned in SB
Like, I feel like you need at least 30 days before EW to test the water...
Cause I was gon level another toon to help my friends on other DC. Will it be the same as server visiting? Can do pretty much everything ?
Except the Fc stuff etc
And currently Aether is still on emergency medical mode
we don't know for sure but they said you can hang out at the very least
wait a minute, i change job a sec, you cant use mount earn from the other job?
we dont know the details yet
but i would be extremely surprised if we could not play together
wtf
else what's the point
on the same character you can
Ahh gotcha , thank you : )
im on the same, its bug?
you can, there's no job exclusive moutns in term of usage
what mount are you talking about?
I feel like if they open DC travel in less than a month, it's gonna be like haha Asmong go brr and Aether explodes
what mount are you using?
Maybe you can make it so people not from Aether can't travel to Aether?
I guess that can work
Are we going to need to finish level 80 job quests in order to do the ones in Endwalker?
hi I am wonder is it possible for relocat or transfer small house to big house?
yes
Probably, but probably job quests will still be non mandatory in EW tho
ah like in job skills will not be locked behind them?
I think it was announced EW is 5 roles quest chains
probably not
Very likely no lock
Like ShB
is it normal for bloodsworn DOW beast tribes to give little to no XP?
@naive ridgelike the mounts earn tru msq midghar something
I see, thank u, guess I'll keep them on hold for now
with the exception of reaper and sage no class will have skills locked behind their quests iirc
even then
you can use that on any class
reaper and sage might just not
I think Reaper and Sage probably won't too
yeah those mounts work on any class, are you usre you aren't just in a wrong zone or a wrong position or anything
People like me who don't like questing just don't like Job quests
reaper and sage will probably have 1 locked behind their job quest
they learnt their lesson in stormblood where people did not have their lvl 80 skills for the last SB dungeon and trial
Sad
both gnb and dnc's 70 skill is from job quest
I think that's just tradition
Since that's how it works for other jobs
Maybe Reaper and Sage will just get a single locked lv 70 skill lol
Like a big introductory quest when you unlock the job
No, since that didn't happen at 60
Would be weird if only Sage and Reaper got lv 70-80 job quests
verholy is also locked behind their 70
so i'm prettysure reaper and sage will have their 80 skill locked behind job quest
yeah
like continuation / tech step
which may suck because those are both respectively REALLY big milestones for both classes
What will their starting level be?
70
70
70
0️⃣
its always the starting level of the previous expansion
for new jobs
except for HW
you can pick up SB jobs for HW, ShB jobs for SB, and EW jobs for ShB
which makes sense
HW jobs starting at 30 is the job milestone so that also kinda makes sense in retrospect
i'm having problems with some sightseeing locations.
for example, #43: east shroud. it's 7:15pm EZ. weather is thunder. it's not working :c i'm moving around a lot spamming lookout but no luck. any advice on what i might be doing wrong?
it's also to not completely flood the dungeon queue for the new job roles
for those just trying do progress the new expansion
Yeah, always felt like the level segmants are 1-30, 30-50, 50-60, 60-70, etc.

i'm... not sure, but also ARR vistas don't usually have that dot on them...?
how'd you solve them last time?
yeah all the arr vistas did not have the indicators
that was only a thing with HW iirc
Y’all free trial players can’t pick any of the expansion jobs right?
i dunno i'm just flying around collecitng them, some work, some don't
only HW's
You can grab HW's 3
which area is that in, to be clear? south shroud?
What jobs were at HW I don’t even remember
east*
east shroud #43
AST/DRK/MCH
you're literally on the right coords too wtf
hey! im new to warrior lv80, which stats should i work on for bis?
Is the weather specifically Thunder?
yeah it is, i'm checking the sightseeing website too
The chance of getting an expansion after EW is really high right?
they should be getting it
What’s the name of the current weather when you mouse over?
Crit > Comfy SkS > Det > Ten
I mean more like 100% but yeah, should be really high
you want zero DH on WAR
It’s not in question
We know they want to keep working on the game for at least another ten years
Nice
Y’all so my friend wants to buy the game. What versions are there? I remember when I bought mine some had certain expansions included
Also the chance that the expansion after EW launch with new jobs is also pretty high right?
@wicked blade seriously don't know why you're not getting it, i see nothing wrong and the conditions should most definitely be correct
we don't know their policy on jobs, they haven't indicated that there's too many for them to handle in terms of design yet
!faq product
Have anyone heard anything like, "They felt there are too much jobs to balance now, so in the future they don't plan to add new jobs anymore, only limited jobs"
Try going right on the edge of the pond
Thank u!
Not at all
the only bottleneck we know of is just designing job questlines still, which they have alleviated by making role questlines instead
I see, that's nice
There has been no such comment
O: does this mean i need to finish 1-20 first? i didn't know that
Oh, yeah you do
you need to finis hthe first 20 first to unlock the rest
Yes that would do it
it's dumb
Yeah I really wish the expansion after EW gives us a new healer and a new tank
It’s actually scary to think that one day we’ll stop getting new jobs🥺
are you using the sightseeing log website?
oooo i see! do i need to talk to the guy to unlock it or does it unlock automatically?
I just really want more variety in the non dps department in raids
after completing the first 20 you talk to the guy in gridania
then you can do the rest
You need to talk to her
this is exclusive to ARR
yeah it's weird, but that'll do it
if you haven't used the website, i recommend it highly
i have a class at level 80
how do i get the armoury bonus for the lower lvl classes i have
not showing up
It's automatic
You always get it
ah you dont have any buff to show it active?
No
