paralells has a m1 version now but
costs money if you get it legally (also no guarantee xiv will run well)
Just in your opinion
am i just able to blacklist them on lodestone? cause i found them there
no
Do you like cbt jank shit than go smn
Vinyl pls
Any strong views on Paladin vs Gunbreaker; fairly casual player not looking to endgame raid; looking for something fun to play; cool glamours are a plus
Flip a coin
it landed on the edge
all tanks use the same armor i believe so
Static rotation vs being active
i switched to gunbreaker and i like it more you could always just try it
(from paladin)
time..
he invited me again this is like the 10th time please i need to blacklist him
Use only their First name in search
i am
It doesn't work with both
Is there a way to macro shukuchi to where the target circle goes it’s max distance away from you? (Max distance where it still teleports you)
FINALLY I FOUND HIM
No
hes using an I instead of an L in his name
This aspect of the game is held together with spit and feathers, there's no two ways about it
Macros need a specific target
Oof
How do I get the hunting log to show me the location of monsters?
On the map that is
I don't believe you do
never could, it always just showed the general area
click where the location is written in the log
it will open the map
it doesn't give you a specific location, just the name of the area
@sudden bison Gunbreaker, but really, since you're casual and won't raid, chances are you'll level them both anyway
both are good
relative to other tanks, they do the most damage with gunbreaker having the higher APM of the two
gunbreaker's rotation is much less static and thus will be easier and generally better to maintain in environments with unexpected downtime or random mechanics
otherwise play whatever's cooler to you, both are fine

GNB is also much more weave heavy which makes it feel faster
though I am biased because I do not like PLD since it is too static
your damage isn't entirely restricted to melee range on paladin though which is one advantage
mhm, good point
What do you think the top 3 easiest jobs to solo Heaven-on-High to the final floor would be? To keep in mind, the level cap is 70.
when you do your caster phase you have a bit more freedom to move
Where would I go to ask people in this Discord if they want to farm Skallic gear (I'm on Primal btw)
Thank you
i'd imagine some of the potd jobs translate over well
RDM and MCH gain some stuff and still have the same capabilities
PLD as well
GNB is a good one since it just crunktacular damage at 70 too with a well-balanced toolkit
Whats a good server to start on? and preferably will still be fun if I continue playing. I tried aether but its completely full
for HoH it's GNB > MCH = RDM
for Potd MCH easy floor 1-179 hard behemoth, RDM easy behemoth but easy to fail else where if not pay attention
any, really
!faq worldpick
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
All servers are packed to the point of there being almost no distinction
anything on crystal works because they're all preferred
Okie, thanks
data center travel will be a thing... soon-ish...? so the distinction matters less
but crystal gives free exp boost so why not
Not until after 6.0 afaik
It's slated for before 6.0
^
How rare is Dreadwyrm Token?
Idk if that's still happening. I could see that changing based on current server stress
we'll probably hear about it this month, I'd guess.
the dreadwyrm totem drops from one of the top 3 hardest fights in the game
Unending Coils of Bahamut
It's a 100% drop rate
Do you have to put <t> at the end of /ac Medica/Medica II?
it is the only reward from UCoB and drops for all players on every clear
Iirc it also drops a random weapon
No
oh does it?
no, because it's untargeted, but why?
okay i had to double take for a sec
oh that's neat.
I want to macro Medica and Medica 2 together so if I roulette in a low level dungeon, it uses Medica, medica 2 accordingly and I save crossbar slots.
same with Cure
really? how so
!faq macrogcd
Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.
Check this video for a striking dummy comparison:
https://youtu.be/VgpUCgExvbA
Cause it's extremely inefficient and hella clunky
best practice, even if a bit tedious, is just to have medica on your hotbar to swap over instead
And when you get into level proper content you'll need them seperate
Medica 2 ISNT an upgrade
this is straight up not viable.
And you wouldn't want it anyway
On top of that, Medica 2 has a regen effect on it, which is wasted if you also cast Medica.
medica 1 still gets use for being a more mana efficient option compared to medica 2 since you wouldn't need the extra regen from yet another medica 2
And macroing them would not only work quite inconsistently but it would cause delays.
oh alright
yeah i get where you're coming from because it can be a bit annoying due to level sync
but best practice is best practice
Is there a trade board or looking for items board out there? Or on Reddit? I’m looking for 10 hq cyclops onions and 10hq emerald beans. Do I just need to hit the market board and just deal with what I find?
i'd be shocked and awed if such a thing exists
yes, check market board
that'd be generally what you'd be expected to do
People gonna be lazy for job quests, might as well capitalize
so this bluequest says Patch 5.3 so i need to finish 5.3 msq first to do it ? cuz it seems i dont see it
wanted to unlock dwarfs dailies
Where are you looking
Can you say same with Swiftcast and Raise in one button?
That my friend, is exactly what I’m trying to do
Never put two actions together on one button
Apart from crafting macros.
don't do that
the second
you basically just either have to get lucky and find someone with precisely 10 of those, or just compromise and buy a bit over
are you a doh?
fortunately world hopping for different prices and quantities is viable
yes
How do you world hop?
Have you completed
Ronitt to the Rescue and are you on a level 70+ crafter class
but it's so efficient though. I press once = swiftcast, I press it again, raise. and i have icons displayed for cd.
It isnt
It's slower
what Lyon said, don't put two things together
to add onto that, swiftcast will be useful as a skill in general for DPS and movement so you would awnt to learn how to press swiftcast outside of raise
No.
also
Absolutely do not do this.
you may have to hardacast raise so
No. It's much slower.
It is so inefficient.
Cause you have to wait a literal full second after using swift
you would need the button separate anyway
For the raise to go off
Have you checked this?
Instead of being instant
It will not always work consistently and it will be delayed
again, not to try and dogpile but understand that macro-ing stuff is bad practice and you shouldn't try to make compromises or excuses
it seems easier on paper but ends up being ass in practice
Please do not try to use macros creatively, there are certain limited scenarios where they are viable and those are known and finite.
The system just isn't built for it.
By the time a swift raise macro is finished, a normal person has already pressed the skills seperately and raised much faster than you
go to Limsa, Ul'dah or Gridania
the big aetheryte will ahve an option to world visit
It has inherent limitations to prevent too much automation of combat.
alright
people would love to macro if they could but the system's removal of queueing just sucks ass 
if you can think of a new creative way to use macros, chances are someone already thought of it and it doesn't work
there are some individuals who gloat about their 5-combo GCD macro that they can just 'go afk with'
then realize it doesn't work

(Moves) “Oh no the macro stopped”
hello, does this exists as an emote in the game ? if yes, how can i get it ? https://preview.redd.it/nacx9ezjl4h61.png
ah link didnt work
i mean the dragoon pose
the iconic one
All of them
Be a dragoon?
im a dragoon but i have no way to pose like that: https://wi.wallpapertip.com/wsimgs/24-245225_final-fantasy-dragoon-pose.png
It's male only
/cpose on males
^ with weapon out
Lv50
Level 50 job quest
Yeah gotta live looking dumb for 5 levels
You'll also get the stronger version of it at 50 as well
shit i knew picking female meqo'te would backfire one day
why? @sudden mango
The chest is specifically at lv50 for the lore reasons
sus
You CAN use a third party tool called CMtools to load poses in gpose for screenshots if you want
I've done it
because i cant have the best dragoon pose
hey my friend just started playing and she wants cool/cute glamours, is there any npc that sells good stuff for cheap ?
whats an expert dungeon?
oh thanks will check it out but its a shame
are they actually hard?
Just to show:
it's the """current""" dungeons
do i just use this off cooldown or what like whats the difference between all jumps or are they just extra dmg
Yes
yes?
It's free damage
so just button mash it off cooldown for all jumps?
Yes, weave them properly
Also spineshatter and dragonfire sends you to the boss unlike normal jump which returns you to where you were
Keep that in mind
Jumps can only be single weaved due to animation lock
good to know
just started playing and i want cool/cute glamours, is there any npc that sells good stuff for cheap ?
There's no much low level that's not off the market board or needing to grind in the gold saucer for the currency
There’s the best men/maid outfits
yeah across from the uldah aetheryte there's a small shop that sells a suit and a dress
The dress is aight but the suit looks nice
What determines how big your mount Is? Your height or overall size?
Would a tall female viera have the same size mount as a maxed height male Dragon person?
Depends on the mount, some scale on race, some don't
But most do
idk if it changes depending on height though
Is there a race that has the biggest? Or is it basically all tall people have the same size
Hm I see
Yes
Yes to which part :p
roe is the tallest race of both male and female
is squadroon training worth it?
yes
whats the fastest way to level them (squadroon) in the beggining and then just spam the highest lvl missions?
Spend 4 people on missions and train the others while waiting
only have 4 boys 😅
You can have 8
is it possible to trade items you win from the gold saucer to other NPCs for other types of currency? like maybe to the grand companies for rank or similar?
You can sell dupe triad cards
i like the idea behind the gold saucer but theres nothing that i want from the prize pool, but i thought if i could trade those items for something else, it would be nice
Stupid question, in order to gain exp past level 60, do I need to purchase the next expansion?
you are on free trial? then you need to buy the game
I’ve purchased
What is the easiest to play between pugilist/lancer/rogue? Looking to get into a melee DPS class
I can use market n other features, but I’m a bit confused on why I’m unable to gain exp past level 60
Buy shadowbringers
@left bridge i would recommend ninja over dragoon and monk
Starter edition is capped at 60
ah okay
So buy shadowbringers
Thank you !
@spare linden Okay thank you, will try it out. Getting too close to 60 on my blm/bard so I've gotta switch it up
i did gla/pld to 80 and beat 5.4 and now starting all over with a new rogue/nin and doing MSQ again
i took a long break, over a year
https://i.imgur.com/FLzbuOG.jpeg 17 more tactics i just cant get it
i did the same research as you, trying to figure out what DPS to play. i settled on rogue/ninja and have been happy with that
level up your squad on another mission, really your only option because I don’t think you can train to reallocate stats precisely enough with what you have
Cool, appreciate the response!
You can fart? where do you get that
Definitely going to buy the complete edition the next time its on sale
Custom emote
Type /em
Then whatever you want
And it will put it in the emote chat
lmao
Are any of these quests worth doing?
Legacy of Allag chain is MANDATORY
alright thanks !
Blue quests are feature unlocks so I usually look ahead to see what they unlock and determine if I want it

The quest "Towards the Firmament" found next to the aetheryte plaza in Foundation.
Prerequisite: complete Heavensward MSQ up to and including patch 3.3
Thanks
yeah I did but I want specific advice, feeling lost
do you still get one of the guaranteed loot if you solo unsync alexander ?
how does the rathalos mount work, it says it drops from the trial but there is no chest. is it only from getting enough scales?
The chest has a small chance to spawn
With a smaller chance of Containing it
50 scale+ is the main way you'll get it
so theres like a 10% chance for a chest which has a 5% chance for the mount as an example
Basically
ait
sometimes the special delivery person wont take my fish
The chest mainly has the music and minion
it says i have the item. but i do.
Whenever it spawns
Too low collectiblity
how do i make fish higher colelctability
Use Patience
oh
For leveling in Zadnor, how do I optimize? Should I do CE's/Dalriada, or ignore them and focus on fates? Fates in any particular zone?
Wow, beautiful. Thank you.
So, I've just got access to Squadrons and it says "No new enlistment papers a currently available". What should I do?
Challenge logs
They have a rng chance to have a recruit enlist
So just go do your challenge logs
Ok, but what if I don't do any PvP, will it be ok?
Right now it's like this https://puu.sh/I9sYU.png
Ok, I guess I'm going to lvl up crafting. Thanks for help
I'm in Heaven-on-High. I keep getting the Ready to Gouge buff, which lets me cast Eye Gouge... But I can't find Eye Gouge anywhere in my skill tray and it won't let me drag it from the action list onto my skill tray. I'm quite confused.
Gunbreaker* btw
It's Continuation, it automatically turns into that
where can i trade in my tomestones of alleg
how do you prevent people from going in your private quarters
Housing>estate settings>guest options (or something similar) and lock the door
housing where
Social menu
In the bottom right menu
Social > housing
Depends on your level, but since you're asking this question, most likely Mor Dhona
so if it's like this then it's locked
Yes
If you finish the main quest as a different job what's the worst that can happen other than being in different badass armor than the opening scene predicted? (The game recommends not switching classes during the initial story)
You can switch if you want
Just need to level up that new job
To the story level to continue
do you craft glamour prisms with clear prisms???
I keep wanting to go back as start over as an Arcanist is what I mean.
You can
can you buy glamour prisms?
Then do it if you want
Grand company seals
Okay!
Yes, 200 seals at your grand company
Once you rank up a few times
will the a nocturne for heroes event be available to those only on the free trial?
Can I throw away all these and reobtain them later through the salvager if needed?
okay ty was worried because event site said you had to purchase the game
The requirements are lv50 and clear arr
Which you can do on .trial
They probably just copy/pasted the Web page from last time and changed dates
does serpent quartermaster sell galmour prisms??
How can i make money as a culinarian if i just finished heavensward
or should i put it off until i finish shadowbringers
Yes, when you’ve ranked up enough
i dont see it in the shop at all
when you rank up enough
as in lvl up?
How to I make it use an emotes using Macro?
so we can't play with friends on other data centers right? aside from either paying to transfer or starting all over?
anyone know when the next event is?
@boreal storm Thank you!
the ability to visit worlds on other data centers is planned but not implemented yet
It should be patched in sometime before the Endwalker launch
Would trying monk be a good idea? Ik its a hard job, but I rarely see them and think there should be more. Does monk get any cool bars? And does it do good enough damage? Like would I be holding my team down playing monk?
ok thats good, thanks
everything is good, just play it if you find it fun
Fair
Seems i broke my game. I cannot get to ok' Zundu and my MSQ is there. WTF am I supposed to do?
Cid flew me there as part of the quest line but I had to go and teleported away now I cannot get back
I can get to the other major city there but they don't connect on the map\
Go back to the Ishgard airship area and talk to the NPCs there
One of them should take you back
There is not, it takes me to the other place that does not connect.
Does the Hildibrand quests end after battle of the big keep?
Did you talk to all of them?
there's two different flightpaths to sea of clouds in ishgard 😄
They go up all the way to stormblood
Is light a very populated data center?
All are yes
I talked to everyone I am quite frustrated
How do I know how far I gotten?
Are the quests 50,60 or 70
Thanks!
When should I be doing Crystal Tower Legacy of Allag stuff?
apparently the viera mounts are larger than the Hrothgar mounts, which is funny.
I hope male viera keep that trend going, as i will def be changing toons to a male viera when available to
It needs to be done before heavensward. The game blocks you at 2.5 story
They're good to do for more poetics for more ironworks gear
And alliance raid roulette
L’khonebb takes you to the blue window, which is nearby
started an dungeon because I had nothing i can do I will look again after
hi guys so I'm having some trouble... I moved country and I'm just trying to buy a sub but after trying everything I can think of it's looking impossible
how do u get more serpent seals
Fates and certain roulettes
At a certain GC rank you can hand in gear for seals
GC turn ins
GC?
grand company
like doing gc quests?
Supply & provisioning missions for your craft/gathers
Market board
where that?
Hawkers' Alley for Limsa
Sapphire Avenue Exchange for Ul'Dah
Leatherworker's Guild for Gridania
All main cities
the closest aetherytes
what does market board icon look like on map?
Coolio ty 🙂

How can I find my ID? I completely forgot it
where can i join a guild? i need help learning the game
For Zadnor, what does the shouting of left and right mean?
!faq communityfinder
Dalriada thing
They need to use shout cause Yell doesn't reach far enough
It's the safe zones for the laser corridors
There is no way back there is only one way and that takes me to the bottom of the map and that does not connect to the top i wasted an hour running around trying to run there
There is a way back there
I said L’khonebb for a reason
There's no way to break the game
Not the airship guy
What’s the best way to approach profession leveling? I’m interested in gathering, making swords and armor, goldsmithing, alchemy, cooking
Firmament and Leves
along with GC turn ins
when do you start getting better gear than scaevan in ShB?
You level them all at once
75 as standard
Poetic gear always lasts 5 levels
alright
i just unlocked titania
i have 2 other classes to gear up in scaevan, i guess it's not worth it?
are there moments in the MSQ which are different due to your race, gender or other form of character customization?
Can you explain what these are and how to use them
Question: I have 2 collectible items (Glass Eye and Ice Stalagmite), wikis tell me I can hand them in in Idyllshire, but I have no idea how or where, any idea? it tells me the NPC should be "Zhloe Aliapoh", but she doesn't open trades or accepts anything
haven't encountered any
to my memory
Custom deliveries
Firmament is an Area you unlock after completing 3.3 (Heavensward patch)
It has an instance that has massive xp for gatherers
The items you gather are then used to craft collectibles
Oh okay my main class is still only level 18 should I not worry too much about the professions for now? I have them at all about level 20
can you not do parties with someone who is free trial?
You can invite them
You can
Trials can't invite
There's a way to dismissed people in the party without voting?
YOU who owns the game invites them
Cause I got dismissed while I were in the Palace of the Dead. That's why I was wondering
Random party. No invite
The person who's being kicked doesn't see the vote
Why would you get kicked is the real question
The person who's not the leader can kick also? Cause I was the leader, or can new people joining can change leadership or did I just lagged out you think even though it say dismissed in the chat? idk
2 left, then 2 new people joined then I got dismissed soon after.
how do i get a normal ore like raw onyx but collectable? for collectable dealer
Rarefied raw onyx
any way to disable skill error messages, the red line of text that says stuff like skill not ready to use?
Then it’s just the item
You dontt
You can't get old collectibles anymore
Oh yeah that’s a thing
That's there for people who hordes old collectibles
so collectable dealer is worthless?
No
If you do it nicely
You'll be fine for the most part
Just don't say it in an assholey way
that seemed rather aggro
What is your question?
you could've phrased it more kindly
yes
oops forgot to post censored version
anyway, is that actually reportable?
for being too agressive or w/e
In that manner it could be spun
uhhh could you tell me how?
ah ffs
!faq ffxvmusic
Where/How can I get the FFXV Orchestrion Rolls?
After you have completed the FFXV collaboration quest 'The Man in Black' you'll be able to buy the Orchestrion rolls from the Ironworks Hand located in Central Thanalan at x22, y18. The tokens needed to exchange for the Orchestrion rolls come from the Collaboration FATE Like Clockwork located east of Black Brush Station.
Each completion of the FATE gives you 1 token for silver rating and 2 tokens for gold rating, which means that you'll need to complete the fate 3 to 6 times to be able to buy all 6 Orchestrion rolls.
Need to do some fates for the music rolls
I know I'm being a bit dumb right now
but
is there any way to get my character or items from an old ps4 account to a new windows account?
like
the overall squeenix account is the same
but I no longer have a ps4
and I know I'll have to buy a new version of the game and dlc for windows
ah ok
i wouldn't find it super reportable but it could be construed as aggressive
i wouldn't worry but just be careful about how you phrase stuff like that
yeah def not gonna use chat if i'm in a bad mood
It is not bannable to say such things, but other players are well within their rights to kick you for it. At least, that seems to be the case judging by past decisions from SE staff
If you log in with the same account, you'll have the same characters.
so as long as I log in with the same mogstation account on windows
and select the same datacenter
I'll have access to my old ps4 character from 2015?
There exist no 'ps4 accounts' or 'windows accounts' 🙂
theres only your square enix account with all characters on it. And you'll have to, indeed, rebuy the game to access your characters on different platforms.
gotcha....
....I think
maybe it was the requirement for different licenses that was confusing me
I get that 😦
so
as long as I have the loicenses bought for different platforms
that's all that matters
I won't be forced to make a new character for each platform
as if it was an entirely new account
Correct.
nice
guess now I just need to get with my isp to figure out why my 'net isn't stable so I don't lag or dc when I try to start playing
for a tank, should i have signs/waymarks/ready check etc on my hotbat? If so, how do i do that without wasting en entire crossbar?
Nah
you can add additional hotbars, up to like 10 i believe
Maybe ready check but you can just type /readycheck
also you should have them for endgame but dont really need them right now
just Target 1 and Target Ignore 1 is useful
(1) and the Red (1)
also you can make a macro too open the windows too open signs/waymarks/ready
waymarks are good but only needed for alliance and hardcore content
how do i unlock "And We Shall Call It Eureka", i have all MSQ's and the quest is not in my journal
(when i go to the npc the quest is not there)
hello need lil help, one of my bags turned green and it keeps weapons only in it??? not sure how to unlock it
Does rDPS calculates single target buffs like AST Crads and DNC?
after you beat stormblood it's in rhalgr's reach
it's side content
rDPS on FFLogs
and it's not neither on journal or completed
you beat The Royal Menagerie?
MSQ?
i finish all msq
oh okay

sure you didn't pick it up or complete it already 
and did you finish msq up to literally the quest called "Stormblood"
It also is case sensitive
And We Shall Call it Eureka
no
it's not capitalized
i finish until shadowbringer so i completed all storblood
nevermind why is it like that
it is
huh, weird
so you finished it already then
THE WIKI WAS WRONG

based gamerescape with correct naming
okay good so you did finish it, nice
yeah then you can just access it from the guy that looks like thancred at pier #2
Is summoner good for high end content
all classes are and yes summoner is pretty good
does anyone know if the cameo from the rising event happens every year?
Yes
thanks, just wanted to settle a debate
Yoshi always appears during the rising for a message to the players
Is anything wrong with tank queues? I am waiting for dungeons with my tank samé duration as with dmg
what are your language settings
more people are just on in general so that may just congest queues on every role
but yeah check language settings to ensure it's on for all of them
Is TEA a harder version of A12?
TEA is ultimate, it's very very different
there are parts of a12s reused in TEA
It's all of Alexander put together
I think english,
but its not same
All the iconic mechanics from Alexander in one fight and mixed together
I got insta queue as healer, but as tank, not at all last 14 days
you fight ||living liquid, brute justice, cruise chaser, and alexander|| in a ~15min long gauntlet

It’s normal healer queues are fasted here it’s not like wow where tank is bottleneck
Oh don't forget ||Perfect Alexander|| after
With more wibbly wobbly timey rhymy time bull shit
Time turning on us always
Yeah but I read tank should be faster, not waiting 15 minutes 😁
Time turning back to where we began
I had long tank queues sometimes too dunno might depend on time of day as well
what are you queueing for, out of curiousity
are you queuing for an alliance raid?
50-60 dungeons, The Aery right now
Yesterday it cwas Sohm Al
i want to maximize the amount of a gathering item i'm getting (don't care about hq) for time spent gathering. i've been using pick clean once per node, then hi-cordial when i run out of gp, then just straight gathering until the cordial timer runs out or my gp fills back up to 250 for another pick clean. is there any other way to maximize this, or is that the best it gets
@proud sable wow crazy, I'm in Aery as we speak 😮
Unless you catch people doing their roulettes, you gotta wait a bit
I feel like its bugged, it shows me I am only one in queue 😁
how do i progress into 2.5? (good intentions quest) its locked and says i need to do dungeons i havent unlocked yet (hard)
!quest a recurring problem

There is any Fate guide that shows where does spawn fates and his lvl?
For hard mode primals
NIN question, should I be using Kassatsu on Doton? Or is taht not capable of critting?
it can
is it worth buying the eureka armor for seals? (im sitting at a 1M gil and not making that much money)
ok thanks, I'm synced to 56 so wasnt sure
Stat wise? No. But if you really want it for glamour purposes that’s on you.
The kirin osode and verminion cloak are very good in eureka
If you're looking to actively do it
It's the best you can get
found it :p kinda dumb its locked in a blue quest and not just a part of msq instead so its easier to find
ayo so how are monks now...or is it better i just go with sam to prog through content
They're fine
All jobs are always fine to prog with
If you're good at it then it doesn't matter
how do i find out if a world boss has already been killed?
Why do job quests at lvl 45 give you incomplete sets of armor? Why not give it all at 45 or 50?
Cause they do
you cna byu the rest for gil
So the lv50 quest can give you something, at least until they gave them the i90 coffers
Yeah I'm gonna be using the Ironworks gear at 50
but I hit 45 and it's weird not having the chest piece
i was not very smart.
and never bougth/farmed script gear till ir eached lvl 70
sdo spend a metric ton of gil on gear
if im leveling another class to 80, ik 1-61 is PotD and 61-70 (?) HoH, what should i be doing past 70?
So a lvl 71 boost, does that also finish up the Shadowbringers story as well?
I’ve lost my account
So I have to start over
Story skip is a separate boost
Bozja
Oof
ty
I’ve got to pay twice
or.. you dont have to and just level again
I just lost an account with 500 hours on it and several Shadowbringers relics.
I’m not looking to start at ground zero again
how did you lose it exactly?
Someone got into it and now I’m locked out of it.
why didnt you have 2fa?
submit a ticket
No idea how they got into it
and make a support ticket
use 2fa.
Do AoE heals also heal people not in my party ?
no
Of course it happened on the 3 day weekend.
Yeah must my imagination then, thanks
Hopefully tomorrow customer service can help
Hey, ima kind of new, how does expansion works?
Be more specific with your question @glad halo
Like, if i want to continue with the story i guess, which expansion should i get?
how do i check if a world boss has been defeated?
last time I did WB's you could only figure out what was going on by being in a bossing linkchat
Ok thanks!
question when is the best time to try and join a world
at off peak times
okay thanks cause ive been trying on the weekend
probably not the best time to try
I bet tuesday on early early morning would be best bet
yea i learned that lol
yea cause im new and if been trying to join my friend world
They aren't on Aether data center are they? I heard that squeenix shut down new characters on those for some amount of time
You can't get into aether
It's permanently lockrf
CONGESTED means permanently locked until further notice
well shit
how much does a group loose not running a caster DPS? like 2 ranged and 2 melees
whats the keybind on pc for checking timers?
cntrl + shift + u
thank you!
looks like im gonna be waiting
1% main stat on everyone, so basically 1% or more
Aether won't be unlocked until after endwalker more likely
^
So I'm new to ff in general, gonna upgrade from the free trial this week and prolly get the complete edition and preorder endwalker, is the 30% exp boost from the pre order worth?
fuck well back to stor i go then for a bit
30% boost from pre-order is probably an earring right?
thanks for telling me
@last kayak I believe so yeah
Do you already have one of the previos expansions exp earrings?
Yeah this is my first time playing xD
They said they're new
Nah*
So they wont
oh yeah good point
I'd say its worth if you're like me and you level every class to max.
If you are a 1-2 class kind of person, don't worry about it
How can be adventure in need tank And I am waiting 10 minutes for 4 man roulette? 😁
I'm prolly just gonna do a black mage and maybe a dark knight later
Ahh kk
Otherwise you're just talking about 2-3 days more of roulette dailies in order ot make up the 30% difference maybe
So being new coming from WoW, how is the leveling different other than doing msq to unlock stuff
First class can get to max level just doing MSQ
you do the majority of your alternate job leveling in dungeon instances
All other classes you basically level via this; https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Experience#How_do_I_maximize_my_EXP.3F
!faq altlvlguide
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
Holy shit my brain is exploding from all this info
Wait so then job leveling is kinda like paragon from diablo 3?
Long story short;
- Put on all your +exp items that work for your level
- Run the daily roulettes
- If you want to be extra braindead, level in Palace of the Dead from 1-60
The +exp items will come from drops and questing I'm assuming?
palace of the dead is only marginally better if you have extremely bad DPS queues for dungeons
i just straight up replace rage of halone with goring blade when i first unlock goring blade right?
just fair warning
yes
since goring blade just straight up does more damage until you get royal autority
cool thanks
Yell chat
The big important ones are your Free Company/Squadron buff (the bigger one takes priority), armory, food, and earring EXP buff
what do they mean by "CW for partners" at the start of emerald weapon?
i dont understand that clockwise for partners

I'm assuming if you don't have a telegraph or something you rotate clockwise to someone who doesn
i still dont get it, i just always ask who's my partner. because i find that no one is talking at the start. always..
For emerald it should mean you meet your partner for orbs and then move clockwise
yep, but i wonder how do they know who the partner is without talking
Or if you're just picking partners, move clockwise from your spot and meet your partner
Are there any other ways to obtain general purpose dyes/jet black etc apart from MB and ventures?
You can’t always go clockwise for orbs, some patterns don’t work that way.
why does augmented ironworks healing gear have direct hit rate, what does direct hit do for healers?
so nthing for healing spells, just for extra damage stat?
Gold chocobo feathers from recruit a friend
Yes, which is the important part
And mogstation
Anything battle oriented perhaps?
Guys i am already at heavensward and never got a black choboco
Nope
Does potd, hoh, eureka or Bozja give these items?
can also get it from fetes
How far into the story?
just barely
basically your options are: ishgard restoration fetes, silver-trimmed sacks, gold-haloed sacks, southern/zadnor lock boxes
Then no, you’re not there yet
silver sacks are from potd, gold from hoh
Okay sweet, was looking to farming potd for levelling and Pegasus as well
but they're from challenge floors
Already got the dodo and juedi from HoH so that can wait
so whenever i go to level in bozjan, should i just stick with the first area with my 70 gear? or will it not matter?
Doesn't matter
it doesn't matter
You're hard set to 430
thank you
when thundercloud procs should I always do it asap or wait until i switch back to Ice?
Hi, anyone know a raid I can grind for a cool looking mount?
Use it before it falls or before the dot falls off
I just heard from a friend that Ishgard housing is only gonna be purchasable by players who own housing prior to Endwalker, but couldn't find a source. Anyone know anything about that?
False
They haven't said what you need
But probably just finish 3.3 since its related to the firmament
Sorta what I figured when I couldn't find a source yeah
You don’t really grind raids for the mount, Savage drops are 100%
Also it’s the end of the tier that has the mount drop
How do i check how many tombstones i have
what is the use of Surecast?
currency
ty
keep casting if you get hit iirc
knockback null and casting through potential interruptions, mainly former
is there a way to change the colour outline on the cards as astrologist? I normally use the Protanopia colourblind mode but it doesn't seem to work with the cards. The Tritanopia setting does work on the cards but everything else turns weird
or is there another way to quickly check if it's a melee or ranged card?
I want to reach floor 100 on Heaven on High, solo. I understand I have to do a Fixed Party, but I get asked if I want to start at floor 1 or floor 21. Does it matter which I choose?
hey guys, is there any other way to get tomestone of allegory apart from daily roulette's? ty
Any lv80 content and shadowbringers hunts
Hello ! I would like to know how theses UI were created since it seem to be really convenient : https://mobile.twitter.com/maximum/status/1434704947375849478
Thank you very much !
Doesn't matter if you want together there just for clearing
Mods
Max has chat commands in his stream for them
He's been working with the mod creator to make them
The chat command actually bring us to the stream of a friend of his that have a command for the subs unless it's not the !ui command :x
anything special to buy with shadowbringer gemstones?
Hey, im pretty new to the game and a little bit confused, if I enjoy the game and want the Shadowbringer extension, it is a one time purchase right? Because a friend said something about paying 40€ a month for it and that seems weird but now im unsure and google doesnt really help me out
!faq buy
!faq subprice
Expansions are once, sub price is monthly
Yeah shadowbringer is a one time purchase and endwalker will also be a one time purchase
hey guys, is there any other way to get tomestone of allegory apart from daily roulette's? ty
thank you very much 🙂
is old poetics gear that you don't want to glam best just turned into gc seals?
You were answered
.
to unlock the hard mode variant for dungeons do i need to have completed the regular version first once?
Yes
okay thank you!!
forgive me for not seeing it 🙄
my friend keeps getting this error? how does he fix it
So I heard melee DPS used to have position mandatory or combo brakes
How do Monks live?
used
another question how to farm tomestones of poetics quickly?
And yeah I think ARR Monk is just janky
!faq poetics
thank you
What's the general opinion on cactbot here ? 
it's a crutch outside of ultimate, imo
ngl the hotbar in max's ui looks slick. not too much a fan of the health bars tho
The ressources bar are really nice too IMO 
how much time is there between EW dropping and the first raid tier being released?
2 weeks
oof ouch
Then a further 2 weeks for savage
ohh
So December 21st for savage
forgot there's non-savage raids
im doing my reconditioned anima weapon for war, where should i put my skills?
So people can level and experiment with new rotations
after that the other two tiers release normal and savage simultaneously
And the Devs can respond to feedback and buff/nerf stuff
are the initial extremes worth doing for gear or how did one usually prepare for raids historically?
Yes
is arms length useless for dps?
no
No
It's knockback prevention
iirc it also mitigates damage by slowing enemies
unless slow is just about movement speed
That’s best for tanks
Are thoses extreme doable with random group on release or it's more of a FC/static thing ?
also, when my friend tries to login from the launcher with his free trial account it’s forcing him to put in a registration code, does anyone know how he can just login thru the trial?
ye
Extremes are midcore content
I bet you can pug/pf them
Wrong launcher
personally I didn't have the best experience PFing diamond ex
The starting extremes are easier by default
slow is attack speed, heavy is movement
I assume the initial raid gear will be crafted?
is 2.38 gcd good enough for war?
I have a soot black dyed leather eyepatch and a halatali yellow leg piece, anyone know why I can't get 80 on fashion report?
You need all slots filled
do you have gear in all slots
Important: all slots filled
Any tips on how to prepare for the first tier with crafters? Should I assume some massive gil sink like pentameld aesthetes initially and save up for that accordingly?
or can I assume scrip gear to be enough?
Howdy, i've run into an issue that I cant seem to find the answer online,
I upgraded from ps4 to ps5 and when I log into the PS5 version of the game it is asking me to create a new service account,
yet if i were to create a new service account I would not have access to my characters, would I not?
Hello, I want to buy the game but I am not sure which thing do I buy. Shadowbringer's complete edition or endwalker right away? and how does subscription work with that
!faq buy
is piercing talon on dragoon bad?
thanks
if you buy endwalker now you won't have access to the any of the expansions before it until release
It's extremely extremely niche
Alooooooooooooot of boxes need to be filled to make it worth
Like being away for a looooooong time, no ongoing combo
howm any runs of DR do you need for Timeworn Artifacts?
You get 3 per run
thx
is it fine to unbind?
Basically yeah
thanks
hello do people use fflog to see their ranks? like I see youtubers showing their #1 tank or something
How do you get bozjan coins? Do you have to do field research or something?
Oh it’s a place?
Bojza
Oh okay
You need rank 10 to do castrum
Rank from what?
