[ripe hound]

You still have to do mechanics correctly?

I see

Sad

Time for LR prog agian

[patent citrus]

ic ty ty

that's why the person can't see it xD

rip

i'll just tell it's still a month to finish

[warm snow]

You can kill by icelit dragonsong, still have to do all the mechs up to that point

[ripe hound]

Ouch

My brain already kinda stops at WL1

[leaden ginkgo]

How do I use the Seasonal Quest Replay feature?

[warm snow]

Well git gud or no sexy beard centaur for you

[ripe hound]

Cry

[obsidian agate]

is there an xlplugin that shows your total rested exp

[runic cairn]

just talk to the quest giver again

[leaden ginkgo]

I don't see her

She's not where she's supposed to be

[outer ore]

Is there a place where I can see the marks in goblin?

[forest merlin]

Boys, I'm in a dilemma. I'm pretty high RN and my cat has pressed the button to turn off autorun. I can't for the life of me find the option, I need help man I'm stuck walking around like a snail

[faint flare]

Numpad /

Toggles walk

[forest merlin]

Damn bro ty

[leaden ginkgo]

Nevermind I found her

Crowd of people covered her

[elfin edge]

hold down X

[warm snow]

Synced it's still pretty tough

Cuz you need to know how to deal with all the knights

[agile laurel]

Thordan EX was comparable to Alex savage, considerably

[outer mural]

it's mechanic heavy

[agile laurel]

Synced, that is

[warm snow]

A12s maybe, a4/8s lol no way

[agile laurel]

Thordan was disgustingly difficult by the standards of an EX trial

I didn't say final floor

[sly kraken]

i could use some help w/ kupo bot if anyone is familiar. i can't get it to search free company recipes like airship parts, aetherial wheel parts, etc.

is there a special command for those recipes?

[warm snow]

Why not just use the search feature in your normal crafting log?

[sly kraken]

just more options

if im not logged in etc

anyway does anyone know what's up w kupo?

[agile laurel]

EX trials are typically considered a tier of difficulty lower than savage raids, mainly the non-final fights

Thordan EX was considered on par in difficulty to these, not easier

Savage obviously fluctuates in its difficulty, Thordan was on par with some of the earlier ones. In the context of EX trial difficulty, it's a rough one

[warm snow]

If you need to search recipes there's actual websites you can use. Going through the bot, which might I add often goes down, is just a bad idea

[sly kraken]

yeah i mean it's just more convenient at times

if anyone has an answer about kupo bot searching fc recipes/how to resolve that pls lmk/tag me

[warm snow]

Bruh what the fuck

You've been queueing for thordan ex...

[agile laurel]

Yeah. If you were to rate all of the ex trials on difficulty, Thordan would be high but not alone up there

[warm snow]

Sos is harder imo

[agile laurel]

(Typically one does not use DF for extremes, bonus points for doing that, and for thordan, and not going insane)

[boreal aurora]

how long does it take till you get loged out cuz afk?

[agile laurel]

5mins atm

[elfin edge]

30 mins

[lean sphinx]

Am I reading the last step of the relic right, I need to do 180 raids for the parts?

[warm snow]

30 mins

[agile laurel]

Oh?

My bad.

[elfin edge]

you can also get stuff in zadnor

[rocky wadi]

whats the best word to start in

[agile laurel]

You'll get 'more' parts in zadnor

[warm snow]

Or 90 Zadnor Skirmishes and 45 zadnlr ces

[agile laurel]

!faq worldpick

[zinc orbit]

'Which world should I pick?'

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

[warm snow]

Does not matter

[elfin edge]

the skirmishes are easier to get in zadnor because they spawn really fast

[faint flare]

Yes

[warm snow]

All servers are stuffed

[lean sphinx]

Jesus that's a long grind

[elfin edge]

the CEs depend on how often people spawn them

[warm snow]

Very

[agile laurel]

Typically the only people outside of JP who use DF for extremes don't know any better

[faint flare]

You basically have a sub 5% chance to clear in duty finder

Cause people are actually fucking stupid

In duty finder

Ontop of no sane people queing for it

You'll barely make any progress

[rustic badge]

is there a way to tell what server business is? like if I want a newer one

[agile laurel]

It's not bad, let's not make shit up... Anyone with sense knows to use Party Finder to get an organised group together

[warm snow]

You need a level of coordination very difficult to achieve with random players, especially when most people just facepull

[faint flare]

You've been hella lucky to get ANY clears for any ex

In duty finder

[warm snow]

It doesn't matter

[agile laurel]

Typically anyone who uses DF will not be ready, because they dont know better

[warm snow]

All servers are stuffed

[faint flare]

Cause it means you found 7 people who aren't fucking mouth breathers

[agile laurel]

However it sounds like you've had a good experience - I'm not going to deny that happened

[rustic badge]

what about in terms of server economy/inflation?

[warm snow]

Considering world visit is a thing, waaaaaaay too much variety

[outer mural]

doesn't matter, no economy on a server is worse than another. some markets will be shittier than others for some items but better for others

that and world visit yeah

[warm snow]

All server economies are relatively equal anyways due to mb taxes and other gil sinks

[rustic badge]

ok,.thank you

[warm snow]

There's no noticeable inflation

[marble drift]

whats the command to pull up summoner rotations?

[ripe hound]

Does anyone have the, e8s, clock wise counter clock wise mirror practice thing?

[junior herald]

https://discord.gg/thebalanceffxiv

this discord has optimal rotations for leveling and raiding for all jobs

[rocky wadi]

so do you not play this game on steam untill you buy it

[faint flare]

Steam has a free trial

It's listed as a demo

[rocky wadi]

well it says im installing it on a seperate thing than steam

[faint flare]

You're not using steam until you download off steam

[tidal osprey]

so I want that eden savage car? how difficult is it with current ilvl gear?

[faint flare]

You still need to do the mechanics

But it dies around uplift 2

[tidal osprey]

I'm guessing people regularly run it on DF?

[faint flare]

Lol

No sane people do ANY extremes or savages through df

[elfin edge]

e4s is not too bad with current ilvl

I joined a bunch of randoms; 4 or so knew the fight; we cleared after like 4-5 tries

[sudden dock]

Can I use the event hairstyle as a hrothgar and have access to it if I fantasia to another race?

[faint flare]

No and yes

Viera and hrothgar can't use any unlockable hairs yet

[agile laurel]

it is impossible to DF savage

quite literally not possible

you need to make a group on party finder

[fathom arrow]

hi guys if i hit lvl 80 yesterday how is the fastest way to cap my tomes of revelation in 2 days ?

[feral nebula]

Is there like a limit of Aetherpool i can get by just sgning 51-60?

[faint flare]

Hunt trains

[agile laurel]

technically, spam pagl'than

other than that, hunt trains when they're available

[faint flare]

And spam matyoa/pag between them

[boreal aurora]

does the timed node dissapear after 3mins even if u are gathering it atm?

[faint flare]

They don't disappear if you're Interacting with them

[boreal aurora]

ah ok

[tiny valve]

Do DNC still have prefered partners ? They never link me even when I'm clearly top dmg as BLM :c

[faint flare]

!faq dncpartner

[zinc orbit]

Who Should I Partner?

For an accurate answer, upload a log to Hint's partner calculator. Note that the calculator will support logs from lower level content, including the level 70 ultimates.

Otherwise, use the following list updated for 5.5--note that it is made in a gear/skill vacuum, and that it may vary depending on fight:

(The following priority list is for level 80 content only)

1. SAM
2. NIN
3. MNK / BLM (crit build)*
4. DRG / SMN
5. RDM
6. MCH
7. BRD
8. DNC
   *Note: Speed BLM was not formally ranked, but is likely somewhere around RDM.

[faint flare]

This is if everyone is equal gear and skill

[tiny valve]

thx

should check pin more often

[leaden ginkgo]

What significance do these hold?

[agile laurel]

Once you run out you cannot accept levequests

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh wow D:

[agile laurel]

They recharge... 3 a day?

I think?

Pulled that number outta my backside you might wanna check that

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh wow, so like I can't just spam levequests to lvl?

[agile laurel]

Well 88 is a fuckin lot

[faint flare]

6 per day

[agile laurel]

You can level most of a crafter with that

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh just worried cause i accepted a levequest Large which cost 10 allowances

[tiny valve]

not so much when you decide to hard grind crafters haha

[leaden ginkgo]

now i'm starting to regret it >.<

[agile laurel]

large-scale leves generally aren't worth

[clever roost]

how long does it take for mog station items to be delivered??

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh right on, I'm new to this. Just hit lvl 50 on my Miner

So keep spamming the highest levequests I got right?

[faint flare]

Can take up to 24 hours

[open coral]

Anywhere from a few minutes to a few hours.

[clever roost]

thank you ~

[faint flare]

Depends on the server backend

[agile laurel]

Varying. Some leves are more useful than others in the long run. Check this if you want to see how they've all been worked out https://ffxivguild.com/ff14-mining-miner-leveling-guide-a-realm-reborn/

[clever roost]

no problem ~

[leaden ginkgo]

Tysm!

[crimson yacht]

I just reached max lvl on my drk but im about halfway through shadowbringers. Should i level up another class to take advantage of the exp or is it not a big deal

[hasty musk]

If you want to, sure

it doesn't take that long to level up a job without MSQ exp

[leaden ginkgo]

I'd say just press on with MSQ

As it's nothing to stress about really, but unlocking more content will be worth it

[flat solstice]

Hey, im fresh to the game, are there any tips that would help me with starting out?

[hasty musk]

when in doubt

[faint flare]

[hasty musk]

the main thing out of this list is

do MSQ

keep up with your job quest

[flat solstice]

Ok so just do MSQ all the way to 80?

[hasty musk]

It's required to unlock all content

so yes

you can sidetrack at your discretion

[flat solstice]

Ok, im stuck bc my MSQ is to do this dungeon and i cant bc no one is doing it

[hasty musk]

what class are you

[flat solstice]

Thaumaturge

Trying to start playing black mage

[hasty musk]

DPS classes take longer to queue than tanks or healers due to how many there are and how many people play them, so it's normal for it to take a bit

If it's taking like

[faint flare]

All dungeons pop eventually

[hasty musk]

15+ minutes, consider trying closer to prime time for your DC

[faint flare]

Average wait is like 10-15mins

[flat solstice]

Im at 11 mins now

[hardy scroll]

whats the best gear i can get while on free trial for my jobs

[hasty musk]

then keep waiting

[faint flare]

It pops eventually

[hasty musk]

Shire gear

[faint flare]

Cause of roulettes

[flat solstice]

Is t here a way to get a starter mount so i dont have to walk everywhere?

[hasty musk]

!faq mount

[hardy scroll]

so shire is BIS?

[zinc orbit]

Mounts FAQ

When can I get my first mount?
The quest that allows you to use mounts, ''My Little Chocobo'', is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest ''The Company You Keep''. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose, and you'll need to buy a Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 required Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes immediately after ''The Company You Keep''.

Are there any differences between mounts?
Some mounts allow multiple people (2/4/8) to ride at once, with all mounts having the same movement speed. A partial exception to this rule is the SDS Fenrir, a mount from the Mog Station. The SDS Fenrir acts as if you have the first mount speed boost obtained from completing specific quests in the story, making it a bit faster than other mounts, but only until completing the relevant story quests for that zone.

Can I make my mount faster?
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

[hasty musk]

For level 60, yeah

[hardy scroll]

ight

[lethal birch]

Jewelry doesn't matter for ARR MSQ, right?

[hasty musk]

You should update all your gear whenever possible

[flat solstice]

Ah ok thanks, im level 21 and my MSQ is lvl 15 for some reason

[hasty musk]

including right side

[hasty musk]

that's normal

[lethal birch]

Not sure where to get some

[twilit arch]

accessories below 50 really aren't make or break

[lethal birch]

ah

[twilit arch]

So while its good to have them up to date, you don't have to really worry about them too much

so long as you have like something in there

[mild moth]

is soul stone needed for fashion report to get 80+?

[lethal birch]

I think ill just bother with gettin ones with actual stats once i have access to poetics

[hasty musk]

I don't see a reason why it would be

but I also don't know why you wouldn't have it

[lethal birch]

yeah, i have the default ones on atm

plus the brand new ring

[mild moth]

sprout glasdiator haha

gladiator

[hasty musk]

oh ok

[tiny valve]

COnsider changing the language settings of the duty finder, had mine only set to french at the beginning and always had 20min+ queues

[mild moth]

ok lmk try without

[flat solstice]

Interesting

[tiny valve]

wouldn'ty change much if you're english tho

[faint flare]

Just turn on all languages

!faq dflanguages

[zinc orbit]

Why does it constantly take hours for my queue to pop

If you're on the EU or JP servers, it might be prudent to use the ⚙️ to change your duty finder settings to allow more players speaking different languages to be matched with you!

[river vortex]

shire gear and ironworks gear cost the same tomes of poetics?

[twilit arch]

yes

[river vortex]

ty

[mild moth]

got it w/o the soul stone haha. tyty

[twilit arch]

poetics are basically old tomestone currency so anything not current expansion are going to use it

[river vortex]

ahhhhh i see

so therell only be a different resource at lvl 80?

[faint flare]

Only extreme

Heavensward extremes onwards drop totems as a pity system to buy their items and mounts

Bertana gives you items for them

[potent lava]

Do mudras go on cd the moment you start using one or when you execute an ninjutsu
Also is there any point to use fuma shuriken over raiton

[quick oriole]

is there a way to give stuff to free trial players?

I had a gift for some newbie trial players but saw there's a trade restriction 😦

[rancid cradle]

is there some way to cancel my pre order of endwalker?

[river vortex]

so, these "wondrous tails". I want to make 3 lines every week?

[upbeat storm]

you want to make 1 line eery week realistically

[twilit arch]

getting 3 lines is a really low chance

[river vortex]

do vertical lines count?

[twilit arch]

!faq wondroustails

[zinc orbit]

Wondrous Tails

Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.

Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.

Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!

[river vortex]

Chance? Dont you get to choose?

[twilit arch]

no

sticker placement is random

[river vortex]

ahh. So you get 9 stickers placed at random, regardless of what duty you complete?

[twilit arch]

yep

[river vortex]

how bizarre

[upbeat storm]

you can reroll placement but its not really worth stressing over it

[last sapphire]

Kinda. The seals have set positions, but the seals you get are random. Yea you just get a random seal until you get 9.

[twilit arch]

aim for atleast 1 line, since its arguably the easiest to get

but 2/3 is icing on the cake

[last sapphire]

Re-roll at 7 if you don't have a line.

[twilit arch]

you get it, yay

[upbeat storm]

i think you have a better chance to get 1st place on weekly cactpot than getting 3 lines

[twilit arch]

if not, oh well

[last sapphire]

500 tomestones of allegory is really nice.

[glacial veldt]

Does Foundation have a place to talk to your retainers?

[twilit arch]

yes, its at the jeweled crozier

[upbeat storm]

inn room

[twilit arch]

or the inn room

[glacial veldt]

Thank you all

[hardy scroll]

Uh. When fighting against the garuda-like thing, noctis keeps dying and idk why

I'm dodging stuff but I guess he isnt

[heavy wadi]

you need to stack with him for some mechs.

people are talking about it in #beginner-lounge

[faint flare]

Stack for the line and red arrows, be on on the other side otherwise

[flint oak]

why does my left click some times steer my character? I want it to only be the right click to do it

ie: left should be just camera, not character

[river vortex]

question? How exactly do you play monk efficiently against harder bosses? They keep turning around to attack random players and make me lose my positionals. Do i need to know the boss is spinny beforehand and just keep using true north?

[faint flare]

You'll learn when they do it, true north/riddle until then

[serene ridge]

They only spin in certain attacks

with time you learn ehwn those certain attacks happen

Now a dumb question of mine: I know that if you buy EW, you also but every single expansion before it + the game

But what if i already have those, can i just buy EW for a lower price?

[heavy wadi]

no

No

[fallen niche]

Is there a quick way to target other players for AST's cards?

[tiny valve]

macros

[fallen niche]

Yeah, but I heard that macros aren't very good for AST, and will inevitably slow you down.

[faint flare]

F keys by default

[agile laurel]

whoever told you was correct

[serene ridge]

I just macro the 5th, 6th and 7th party members

[agile laurel]

F2-whichever it stops at could help

[serene ridge]

i play on controller, tho

[agile laurel]

I'm on kbm and honestly I have just got into the habit of selecting party members mid-cast

welp that would pose an issue comparatively

[serene ridge]

if you play on keyboard, just use mouse-overs

[supple pebble]

So im curious on something. Is it possible to make Au'ra more muscular? Ive messed with character creation, but it seems that I am unable to give my Au'ra a more "toned" look.

Is Augmented Shire Gear Set the best lvl 60 BLM can get still doing the trial? Or anything better? Help appreciated

does my dragoon 59 gain more xp?

Are targeting macros that bad ? I thought the issue was mostly for people trying to use combinations

[twilit arch]

!faq macrogcd

[zinc orbit]

Why you shouldn't macro your GCDs

Macroing GCDs adds up to lost casts overtime, significantly harming your potential.

Check this video for a striking dummy comparison:
https://youtu.be/VgpUCgExvbA

[obsidian patio]

A macro that just changes what you’re targeting doesn’t sound bad in theory

[twilit arch]

!faq armouryexp

[zinc orbit]

Armoury EXP bonus FAQ

'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.

[obsidian patio]

Can you post an example of what you were thinking of?

[tiny valve]

Well, since it makes you gain time by not having to target allies etc
I only use it for aetherial manipulation tho

[obsidian patio]

Yeah I’d say that’s a fairly good macro

[twilit arch]

ogcds can be ok to macro

but in general, don't want to use them if possible. since for the most part, they can be finicky, and they don't queue

[agile laurel]

Not short of mods. What you see is what you get.

[supple pebble]

Wanted to triple check. Thank you1

[agile laurel]

Game is inconsistent on muscle tone slider

[supple pebble]

Yeah, I see that. Shame that the Hyurs have it, but Au'ra dont.

[twilit arch]

no apstrophe in au ra and its because they have a different thing taking up that slot

iirc its the limbal eye rings

[serene ridge]

Is there a way to get "General Use" dyes on free trial?

[pseudo verge]

new to arcanist, is there any point in changing the stance of the pet from like guard to sic in regular content?
seems pretty niche

[twilit arch]

yes but the only real way to get them is the fete presents from ishgard restoration, which is rng. if you do high floors (101+) of potd, there's also a chance from them dropping from those but those floors are intended largely for the challenge, so doing them is going to be pretty time consuming

[faint flare]

Sic is used to get the pet attacking immediately on your target

You place the pet next to the boss then sic on pull

[pseudo verge]

ah alright

[trail wave]

just finished the event story

where do I get the mount tho

[violet moth]

golden saucer for 200k

200k mgp, ironworks guy

[opaque heart]

whats cracked stellacluster etc., the things I get from roulettes?

[twilit arch]

you can exchange them for grade 8 materia

[opaque heart]

what is this materia for?

also what are the best items I can get from seals of grand company?

[twilit arch]

they're basically stat boost gems you can socket into your gear, not really important until you're max lv

[hardy scroll]

is there like a check list of all the things i can complete while on free trial before i buy the game

[trail wave]

so i have till october to get 200k?

[faint flare]

Yes, you can get 100k a week

So it's piss easy

[opaque heart]

200k for what`?

[crystal bluff]

the ffxv mount

[opaque heart]

which one is that

lil confused. I'm doing the lv60 job quest for WHM called Hands of Healing, when I click on that it just shows this

https://i.imgur.com/Khx7qMo.png

[bold grail]

Is the car mount from the current event a multiseater mount?

[heavy wadi]

yes

seats four players

[bold grail]

Nice

[dense monolith]

No markers whatsoever

[heavy wadi]

you haven't unlocked the zone it's in

proibably

[serene ridge]

At level 50+ you start your opener with pre-pull Ruin III + Egi Assault 1. In order to do that you need to move your pet next to the boss or use Sic.

[dense monolith]

I'm lv60, I highly doubt it

I can't access any zones nor Aetherytes

I know there's one here 100%

I unlocked it like 10 seconds ago

[obsidian patio]

The quest should be pointing to the dravanian forelands

[dense monolith]

Yeah I can't fast travel to anywhere for some reason

If I just hit M, just shows this

should show the side quests, levemate quests, etc.

Aetheryte, shows nothing

[serene ridge]

try doing it manually via the teleport spell

type /teleport

[heavy wadi]

uh, relog?

Lol i hate myself

I alr found it

[obsidian patio]

Well it looks like your next step is in north shroud

[dense monolith]

''Display/hide map icons.''

Haha gonna cry now

it works now

Apparently I clicked the icon thingy on accident. oops

maybe its a sign I should sleep. damn

[serene ridge]

Is there a way to turn off that grey background that appears when you hold LB/RB on controller?

[final steeple]

hello what is the fashion clothes for this week?

[hidden socket]

Does anyone know if it's down on playstation?

[obsidian patio]

!fr

[zinc orbit]

Fashion Report for the week of 9/10/2021 (Week 189)

Resets in 7 hours, 45 minutes, 50 seconds

[obsidian patio]

Game is up for me

[final steeple]

thank you

[heavy wadi]

it's not because if it was down on ps it'd be down everywhere, since it's the same servers

[hidden socket]

hmm, might be psn on my end then

[night sky]

can I do the relic quest once for each class?

[obsidian patio]

Yes you can get all the relics

[night sky]

ok

I was gonna wait till I get dancer to get relic but I should do it now

[rancid onyx]

where can i start the ffxv collab questline?

[obsidian patio]

Ul’dah near the flames GC

[willow solstice]

@barren shale at level 15 you can do the "like cats and dogs" quest by talking to Skribyld in Western La Noscea. After that it will unlock two quests "Curiosity Killed the Coeurl" and "Man's Best Friend" which will give you a coerl kitten and wolf pup respectively

[barren shale]

Thank you so much for your tip! I'm really liking FFXIV and it's community!

[willow solstice]

no problem! the community is really sweet. I actually just started a few days ago and i like looking into what things i can pick up in quests so i got myself the pup 😅

[willow solstice]

oh before i forget. theres three you can purchase for 2,400 gill each. Cherry bomb, Mammet #001, and Wayward Hatchling minion from these vendors (any of them have all three):
New Gridania from Maisenta (x11,y11)
Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks from Bango Zango (X9, Y11)
Ul'dah - Steps of Nald for 2400 from Roarich (X10, Y9)

[rancid onyx]

do i have to finish the questline before buying regalia?

[faint flare]

Yes

[river vortex]

what 9 duties should i be doing for wondrous tails?

4 dungeons + potd (btw, do you have to clear the whole 200 floors??) + extreme trials?

[faint flare]

Whatever you want to do

You only need to do a set of 10 floors for potd/hoh tasks

[ripe hound]

Also you can just reset

Like, do 9 dungeons

[smoky totem]

does menphinas earring affect all exp? like, including potd?

[faint flare]

Only mob kills

All xp boost except Road to 70 and armoury bonus only affect mob xp

Those two affect more stuff

[vagrant crescent]

In the event one of the boss did the burst move, and I thought I supposed to spam warp to the rock over and over but it still instant killed me.

Don't know what to do

[dim marsh]

then you were too slow

[agile laurel]

If you get an unfortunate rhythm, you end up doing suck - warp - suck - warp - suck - dead

nothing like ‘too slow’ about it, same happened to me and I know how to mash one button well enough

[vagrant crescent]

I do keep getting sucked. What's the timing than?

[agile laurel]

I found waiting to get drawn in once then starting spamming warp ended up fine

[dim marsh]

my bad then. i thought they were talking about the aoe marker. didn't encounter anything like that when I faced the boss

[vagrant crescent]

Oh ok. I'll try that than :D

Thank you :3

[smoky totem]

o yea where do i trade the magitek stuff?

[vernal urchin]

in black brush station or any of the 3 main city states

in gridania, the guy was near the amphitheater

[smoky totem]

the vendors dont appear :/

i alrd finished event and got the regalia etc

[toxic sorrel]

wheres the vendor to trade stuff for the ff15 event?

i did the quest 3 years ago and i dont remeber

[vernal urchin]

the vendors won't appear on the map, you just have to keep your eyes peeled for an Ironworks person

[fallen niche]

So this probably isn't the place to ask this, but in O4S with all blue mages, following the standard BLU comp with the BiS list and using all the correct spells, would you see GCO with somewhere around 4-ish deaths in p2?

[final steeple]

where can i buy the car?

[smoky totem]

golden saucer

[fallen niche]

gold saucer after beating the quest chain

[final steeple]

alright

[vagrant crescent]

I still died :(

Though I did it after the second pull. I'll try to do it after first pull if I can

[fallen niche]

I did it as blue, and only took like 2.5k

just healed up afterwards.

realistically so long as you have a decent form of self healing you can fail most of the mechs

[uncut star]

How do I get the noctis outffit?

[faint flare]

Do the quest

[vagrant crescent]

Almost made it. I was Ninja before and I kept dying. I switched to Paladin and I almost won, Noctis died instead this time, so maybe my Ninja just didn't had enough defense to survive or something. I just reached level 50 with Ninja afterall, lol XD

[faint flare]

Noctis can't die if you're actually doing the mechanics

Or dropping aoes on him

[uncut star]

Where do I pick up the questline?

[faint flare]

Uldah

[vagrant crescent]

I missed the last one. The AoE, that's why. Noctis got hit by those, lol XD

Everything else did missed though, lol XD

[uncut star]

What's the first quest called?

[faint flare]

Man in black

[uncut star]

ty

[toxic sorrel]

if i did the ff15 event 3 years ago, will the quests for this year show up again or nah

[oak depot]

The website says it will, but I'm not getting the first NPC at all. Done all the pre-reqs, afaik..?

[toxic sorrel]

same here

[oak depot]

As bad as this sounds, thank god. I thought I was doing something wrong lol.

It's not just me!

[uncut star]

I can't wait to put my mythirite katana on the noctis set

gonna be so cool

[undone warren]

So about Dragoons, we all know Dragoons can jump good, but can they actually use that jump to get to higher places, or are they all talk no action?

[twilit arch]

lore wise: yes

actual game play wise: no

[undone warren]

lol would be epic if they had a gameplay jump that helps them move

[twilit arch]

@oak depot @toxic sorrel you guys are going to the original spot in ul'dah, yes? near the immortal flames headquarters?

[toxic sorrel]

yup and it didnt show up

idrc tho i got my goods

[twilit arch]

there's no quest marker for it by the by

she's just standing there, so if there's a crowd

she may be hard to see

[toxic sorrel]

ohhhhh ok

[cedar harness]

Is there a mount that I can obtain around 25?

[vital egret]

I did the event the first time but I missed a reward or two. Do I directly get access to the fate farm/vendor or do I need to redo the questline?

[cedar harness]

this walking got me feelin some type of way

[heavy wadi]

do msq

[leaden ginkgo]

how long event last for regalia ?

[heavy wadi]

you should get a mount at level 20

[heavy wadi]

oct 18th

[uncut star]

until oct 18th

[leaden ginkgo]

ok thx

[cedar harness]

How do I start MSQ?

oh wait main storry quest

[leaden ginkgo]

top left corner

[uncut star]

and no the chocobo mount quest doesn't show up until at least 26, this character didnt get it til 28 :/

[twilit arch]

the chocobo quest is based on your msq progress

NOT your character level

[uncut star]

ik, but doing nothing BUT msq, I never get it til later 20's

[twilit arch]

the chocobo quest is 20

But its entirely possible to be overleveled

[unborn geode]

Question on tanking in FFXIV: Do you have to "study" the 4-man light party duty's or are the maps fairly linear?

[faint flare]

All dungeons past arr are straight lines

[unborn geode]

I was way overleveled before the MSQ for chocobo

[twilit arch]

before you actually get it because they raised exp gains for msq (and even more so if you're on a preferred server)

[uncut star]

Yeah because like Haukke manor was a pain in the ass to tank, such a maze

[midnight lichen]

Quick question. I've made some macros to swap gear sets, but for some reason the /gs change X command wont run from my macros. Do y'all have any advice?

[rancid onyx]

the only thing i can trade for unidentified are orchestrion rolls?

[runic cairn]

yep

[oak depot]

@twilit arch Yep. Found her though. She was further down the questline that had been dropped off in 19!

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Kipih_Jakkya Check here for coords, @toxic sorrel

Hello, whats the fastest way to earn 2k skybuilders script?

[jade quartz]

You’ve got a month and a bit

[astral cedar]

wondering if square enix will help people with acc changes that are outside the u.s

[woeful breach]

is there a way to change the size of the names of other people

such a mess in busyt places

[cedar harness]

is it realistic for someone level 28 to complete ARR in time to start the MGP grind for the regalia?

basically we have 1 month from

[hardy scroll]

What the local for event fate, forgot the location

[noble orbit]

central thanalan

the fate itself is at the unholy heir

[hardy scroll]

Thx

[jade quartz]

Yes it is doable

Start farming MGP now though

Every week you can do the fashion report and the challenge log

If you do that you’ll have more than enough by the end of the month

[nimble hazel]

When am I supposed to use holy

[jade quartz]

In an AoE situation

[sharp crag]

why is my hotbar being mirrored

[jade quartz]

Basically anytime there are 3+ mobs in a dungeon

[grave crest]

i bought the game

[jade quartz]

Not only is the damage significant but it also stuns which is very powerful

[nimble hazel]

so is holy spam a meme or

[jade quartz]

You get 7 seconds of stun on the enemy until they become immune

[nimble hazel]

am I actyally meant to spam

[sudden dock]

has there always been a lag when opening the friend list for it to reorder itself?

[nimble hazel]

[woeful breach]

can FFXIV run ok on M1?

[jade quartz]

You are actually meant to

[lethal birch]

Spam it whenever you dont need to heal

[jade quartz]

It’s your AoE dps and the stun means it’s also damage reduction

[woeful breach]

anyone tried

[jade quartz]

Just an all around great spell

[nimble hazel]

ah ok

[jade quartz]

7 seconds of stun = seven seconds where the tank is taking no damage

And even when that’s worn off you should still continue spamming it for damage

[grave crest]

How can i get a new player mentor that sounds helpful lmao

[balmy seal]

My friend is having a problem trying to get into FFXIV. What does this mean?

[nimble hazel]

Is it better to keep spamming that over stone

[lethal birch]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/jvs1b9/performance_of_ffxiv_on_the_new_m1_macbooks/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share

This might be relevant

[woeful breach]

ty!

didnt see that

[jade quartz]

Genetic error that usually means SE anti fraud is kicking in for some reason. Disable firewall or VPN, try a different device or a different network

A common solution is to use mobile data to get past it

Stone is single target, Holy is AoE.

Spam holy when fighting 3+ targets

[obsidian patio]

Try going to Character Config > Hotbar settings > untick “Enable Hotbar Cycling button”

[jade quartz]

!action holy

[zinc orbit]

**Holy** : lvl 45 WHM (600 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.5 second base cast time)

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 140 to all nearby enemies.
Additional Effect: Stun
Duration: 4s

Powered by XIVAPI

[jade quartz]

Deals 140 potency to each enemy

As opposed to

!action stone ii

[zinc orbit]

**Stone II** : lvl 18 CNJ WHM (400 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.5 second base cast time)

Deals earth damage with a potency of 200.

Powered by XIVAPI

[jade quartz]

200 to one enemy

So actually holy beats stone ii at only two enemies

[lethal birch]

Don't you use holy at 2+ instead of 3+

Yeah

[jade quartz]

At higher levels stone becomes

[lethal birch]

Only issue being the proximity you have to be in

[jade quartz]

!action glare

[zinc orbit]

**Glare** : lvl 72 WHM (400 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.5 second base cast time)

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 300.

Powered by XIVAPI

[balmy seal]

ty

[sharp crag]

its not on

[jade quartz]

At that point holy becomes the 3+ choice

[lethal birch]

Aye

[jade quartz]

But dungeon pulls are almost always 3+ mobs anyway

[lethal birch]

Mhm

[nimble hazel]

well that’s good to know

Now maybe my tanks will actually like me lol

[lethal birch]

If you keep them alive during pulls you're probably already more than halfway there

[grave wind]

So when playing tanks, like DRK, do I just run close to enemies to get their attention with 'Grit' then either spam the AOE attack or the 1-2-3 melee combo until the enemies die?

Or for bosses, use the ranged attack then do the other stuff I mentioned?

[obsidian patio]

Not quite sure then, maybe try ticking it back on and cycling the hotbar it’s attached to?

[lethal birch]

I haven't used drk yet but, I use a mix of my aoe and ranged poke to get mob attention during dungeon pulls on gunbreaker

And it's usually aoe spam once I get to the wall

[obsidian patio]

And once you find the hotbar it’s supposed to be, untick it

[sharp crag]

that was the issue thanks

[grave wind]

Cause even though I am damaging them, they start attacking the others anyway

Like, I usually get their attention then lead them slightly further from my healers. Then just spam damage while keeping my damage reduction used

[jade quartz]

You have grit toggled on beforehand

[umbral dune]

you turn on Grit and leave it be

[jade quartz]

You don’t run up and use it in front of them

That doesn’t do anything

Grit is a stance that you toggle on and leave

[grave wind]

Yes. I never turn it off

[gray crescent]

Hello guys, whats the faster way to earn 2k skybuild scrip?

[grave wind]

It's always on when I have dark knight equipped

[stray geyser]

I'm trying to rank up in GC, and the GC guy is telling me I need to talk to Heuloix to rank up. But I talk to Heuloix and he just says a standard line with no further interaction. Am I doing something wrong?

[jade quartz]

You either use unmend -> unleash, or just run up and unleash

[rapid vale]

hey guys how do i pick up the quest resistance is not futile after aquiring the shadowbringers relic weapon from zlatan??

[jade quartz]

If you hit all the enemies you should be safe from party members pulling them off you

[grave wind]

Yeah, I usually approached them and either use the ranged one or use my AOE if 2+

[fossil swift]

i keep dying in the ffxv garuda fight from the pillar attack? I keep warping and I still die

[grave wind]

Warp then go behind it

That was my issue earlier

[jade quartz]

You don’t need to lead enemies away from your healers.

Also

[fossil swift]

I keep getting pulled from there

[jade quartz]

The usual practice is to pull at least two groups at a time

So unleash the first group, keep running and dragging them behind you until you reach a second group

With more experience and good gear (and the same for the healer) you can pull more than two groups

[grave wind]

That I sorta do. Usually ends with a lot of enemies and me getting a heart attack cause my HP dropping to near zero then going back up full due to healers

[jade quartz]

Pulling as many mobs as possible is what we call wall-to-wall or “w2w” pulling

[grave wind]

I try to pull as many as I can but not too much since I have seen how it goes when I play healer.

[jade quartz]

That’s all good 👍

[grave wind]

Okay last question. What does the blood gauge or that skull thingie do? I know it goes up when I use edge of darkness. Does it like increase lifesteal or my damage or something?

[ripe hound]

Yeah if you feel uncomfortable it’s ok to pull less

[obsidian patio]

Craft the level 80 items that aren’t Artisan

[ripe hound]

Increase damage, just make sure it’s always on

[obsidian patio]

The stats needed to get max credit on them is very easy to reach. Full Handsaint is more than enough

[jade quartz]

You spend it to use Bloodspiller (single target) or Quietus (AoE)

[grave wind]

Yeah, I usually use edge of darkness the moment it goes close to 30 sec timer

[ripe hound]

Oh yeah, blood is the other thing

[jade quartz]

Oh if you mean the Darkside indicator

[grave wind]

Yeah, that!

[lethal birch]

I like to give my healers heartattacks and w2w into invuln on first pull

[jade quartz]

Yeah using Edge of Darkness adds 30s to the timer

[grave wind]

So that increases damage?

[jade quartz]

Make sure it’s always on as it’s just an overall damage buff

[ripe hound]

Yeah

[jade quartz]

!action edge of darkness

[zinc orbit]

**Edge of Darkness** : lvl 40 DRK (3000 MP) (2.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 350.
Additional Effect: Grants Darkside, increasing damage dealt by 10%
Duration: 30s
Extends Darkside duration by 30s to a maximum of 60s.
Shares a recast timer with Flood of Darkness.

Powered by XIVAPI

[ripe hound]

I really hope the Darkside thing gets reworked

[grave wind]

Ahh. Cool. Awesome! Thansk for the help!

I usually keep it above 30sec timer since the mana usage is quite high

3k mana on one skill is a lot

[jade quartz]

“Grants Darkside, increasing damage dealt by 10%”

[ripe hound]

Currently it feels like just a reminder that you forget to use your mana every 30s

[jade quartz]

You should also use it for damage as a matter of course

[grave wind]

Pretty much

[jade quartz]

If your mana is full, use it

[ripe hound]

Yeah you only have 3 skills that use mana

A single target, a AOE

[jade quartz]

Otherwise you’re sitting at cap wasting mana

[grave wind]

I usually either use it to keep my timer up or on a group of enemies

[ripe hound]

And the TBN!

[woeful breach]

is it possible to change other peoples name font size?

[grave wind]

My regular mana is like around 5o or so

[jade quartz]

For now Edge/Flood of darkness are the only skills that use mana

So spend it

[grave wind]

Cool thanks for the help!

[ripe hound]

Also as GNB, using Camoflague on cool down in a raid for auto attack is ok right?

Like, since often times there isn’t that many TBs

[jade quartz]

Yeah that’s basically fine

[hoary dune]

had a dc in rathalos ex and we ended up losing via faints and we're just kinda stuck and cant do anything

[ripe hound]

Cool

[sick bay]

I don't think i understand what that loot limitation thingy is in The Tower at Paradigm's Breach, anyone can explaion ?

[hoary dune]

do i just close my game to get out

[lethal birch]

Vote abandon

[hoary dune]

well issue has resolved itself since said dc'd person got kicked for being dc'd automatically

[lofty solstice]

WE HAVE THE ECHO IN RATH EX LOL

[hoary dune]

was stuck in limbo where nobody could interact with anything except chat

[jade quartz]

The only weekly cap on Tower now is the cracked materia token thing

There is no limitation on loot rolls

[sick bay]

Oooooh i see thanks ^^

[bitter marsh]

Anyone know if the math has been done on which mini game/trippletriad in the gold saucer is the most time effective

[umbral dune]

chopping tree near chocobo square or King elmeh, you can try Lewena (near the main hall) for TT card

[bitter marsh]

Ty 🙂

[umbral dune]

but in between, you should aim for gates like air force one, anywhere the wind blow or the slice is right

shooting never fail so it free mgp, the other two events spending 2mins net you 2kmgp already

[orchid heart]

I started 'A Relic Reborn' quest for Ninja and I'm up to 'A Relic Reborn: The Chimera'. It says I need the relic weapon equipped for this part but I handed in the Vamper's knives to Gerolt in the previous step and he didn't give them back

[obsidian patio]

No you don’t for the chimera

You just need to do the duty as a ninja

[orchid heart]

ah okay i just got confused by these guides saying stuff like 'WITH YOUR “RELIC” EQUIPPED' for part 3

[jade quartz]

Bad guides

Use the console games wiki guide for relics

[umbral dune]

guide is one thing, you need to follow ingame instruction

[orchid heart]

yeah the ingame doesnt say anything about having the weapon equipped, ill listen to it from now on

just from these guides and friends saying stuff to me, confusing me

thanks for the help 🙂

[scarlet orbit]

Can I still level up other jobs/classes if my sub expires?

[twilit arch]

no

[scarlet orbit]

Not even from 1 to 60?

[umbral dune]

like you cant log in

[twilit arch]

You have to have an active sub in order to play after you've bought the game

[scarlet orbit]

Ah, got it, thanks!

[manic flare]

someone was accusing me of facepulling in a dungeon. what does that mean?

[noble orbit]

are you the tank?

[manic flare]

i am the healer

[jade quartz]

Means running into enemies and getting aggro

[noble orbit]

don't run ahead of the tank and aggro stuff just based on distance

[manic flare]

i can't do that as healer even if no one dies?

i figure as long as i keep tank alive no one would be mad

[naive ridge]

but some tanks dont like it when other people pull

[manic flare]

i frequently pull as the healer

[jade quartz]

That’s ok

[manic flare]

because ifeel like i can heal larger groups of mobs

[uncut star]

Well, I've been there before, but i dont know how to get back

[jade quartz]

Some people just take issue with it

But honestly it affects you more than anyone else

[noble orbit]

aetherite or airship

if you're in ul'dah the airship is free

[raven sage]

The airship to the gold saucer is always free

It's the airship out that's free to ul'dah

[gloomy bridge]

Do retainer equipment affect what they gather from quick ventures?

[unborn geode]

Jeez, is the first job quest on Gunbreaker supposed to be so hard? I swear I did more in that opener than anything with wht mage, lol. Is tanking this hard?

[leaden ginkgo]

not sure what to do after i hit 80 :(

[noble orbit]

finish the msq, then whatever you want

[umbral dune]

do i ever need to use hyoton as ninja cus bind does not seem useful?

[wispy finch]

theres a lotta things to do still

you have your relic weapon, clearing high end duties

farming

crafting

[leaden ginkgo]

i know theres alot to do, im just saying im very overwhelmed so idk what i should do

[wispy finch]

relic weapon takes a long time to finish

[wispy finch]

i mean if ur like a super duper grindy person

i suggest doing your relic

but if you just want a chill time, u can try clearing ex trials or yk farming mounts

crafting is a good idea coz money

i love money

i want money

[leaden ginkgo]

lvl cap for crafters wont go up in endwalker right? thats what ive heard

[noble orbit]

where'd you hear that?

[hot eagle]

only blu stays below

[leaden ginkgo]

he said it went up once every 2 expansions? or is that wrong

[raven sage]

It goes up every expansion

[hot eagle]

yeah it's wrong if it only would go up every 2 they would not be 80 now

[raven sage]

Only blue mage gets an irregular level cap

And that's not related to expansions at all even

[manic flare]

is it possible the level cap will be 100 for EW? level cap of 90 is kind of strange

[noble orbit]

no stranger than 80 or 70

[dim marsh]

is drop rate of trial drops affected if i run unsynced?

[twilit arch]

level cap is 90

[jade quartz]

Hyoton is not used until you unlock this

[hot eagle]

no but rng is rng

[twilit arch]

they already announced that

[jade quartz]

!action hyosho ranryu

[zinc orbit]

Powered by XIVAPI

[unborn geode]

anyone know about hwo long the new event takes ot complete?

[jade quartz]

Which basically upgrades Hyoton when it’s under the effect of Kassatsu

[dim marsh]

ty

[scarlet orbit]

Just unlocked this good boi but I wonder, do their action do something? or is purely cosmetic?

[knotty stone]

I'm just about to hit level 30 as an arcanist and I wanted to know which one of the summoner and scholar jobs have a better quest line..

[hexed cargo]

Yea, just cosmetics

[scarlet orbit]

Thank you!

[hexed cargo]

Scholar is the stronger storyline, but SMN has some good moments and characters

[knotty stone]

Thanks! I wish I could play both on the same character 😭

[hexed cargo]

You...you can

They even level up using the same experience bar

[dim marsh]

you can play all classes on the same character

[hexed cargo]

So a level 35 SMN is also a level 35 Scholar

[knotty stone]

No I mean play both of the quest lines

[raven sage]

You can

[hexed cargo]

You also can

[raven sage]

There's nothing stopping you

[dim marsh]

you play both quest lines because they're separate classes

[hexed cargo]

But they still same experience bar so you can use healer ques for dungeons

[dim marsh]

just think of them as completely separate classes just like any other classes, except SMN and SCH are the only ones with a shared EXP bar

[knotty stone]

ok got it

[remote lintel]

help i beat the boss????

[woeful breach]

When does the "Road to X" exp bonus start

60?

[violet moth]

happened to me too @remote lintel you gotta redo it, its because theres so many people doing the event that it bugs out sometimes

[dreamy juniper]

does higher pedigree chocobo takes more exp per level to levelup?

[violet moth]

on my 2nd run it worked

[wispy finch]

wait which part is this

is this the daemon part?

[violet moth]

yeah lol

[wispy finch]

oh

[remote lintel]

how do i restart it??

[wispy finch]

starts at lvl 1

[violet moth]

just rejoin the game

[wispy finch]

road to 70 buff

[remote lintel]

screams

[woeful breach]

i mean like is road to 50 a thing

or road to 60

[remote lintel]

no

[umbral dune]

so when kassatsu on, it replaces raiton, after that i use raiton again?

[random girder]

yeah

[hexed cargo]

No no, it replaces Hyoton. So you need to use Hyoton then Raiton

[patent citrus]

Yeah they need different mudras

But you unlock it 70++

Nasty single target potency

[umbral dune]

no i mean for single target, raiton is the choice but since under kassatsu, hyoton get stronger than raiton

[jade quartz]

Correct

[umbral dune]

so in that 15s, should be able to use 2 hyosho rankyu then back to 2 raiton before kassatsu off cd

[patent citrus]

Only 1

It uses the kassatsu

[umbral dune]

oh, i thought it sit there the whole 15s

[patent citrus]

That would be great 😂

[wispy basalt]

hey is there a way to make the icon skills more quality

[barren shard]

How long does it take for a mail moogle to load up the stuff you bought

I have waited for 40 minutes

[patent citrus]

Up to 24 hours

[barren shard]

And sent immediate delivery requests

Jeeez

[lunar nexus]

First time in the Diadem and I want to target farm Grade 4 Truespring Water. I haven't found it on any of my nodes so far and I can't seem to find any routes for this particular item. Any advice?

FAQ Listing

diademmap

[patent citrus]

Ah rip sorry

[lunar nexus]

if the map is https://i.imgur.com/2D6o5ms.png I'm looking at it xd

[slate arrow]

You're doing mining nodes correct

[lunar nexus]

yeah

[patent citrus]

That's a bit outdated

[slate arrow]

On a level 70 miner

[lunar nexus]

my miner is 80

[slate arrow]

then you just keep going

The node spawns are RNG

no way to force one or the other

[lunar nexus]

So on this map what's the practical difference between the gathering and perception paths since I have 100% gathering on pretty much everything?

Nothing in the diadem can be HQ yeah?

[slate arrow]

correct, however you can still get bonuses from nodes

all of which increase amount gathered or number of gathering attempts

The recommended method is to meld to meet 1-2 of the node requirements and then to just spam one route

[chrome basin]

What happens if I transfer to another world server and my name is already taken?

[slate arrow]

you'll get a free name change which you'll have to apply before you sign in, iirc

[chrome basin]

gotcha

[spiral inlet]

I need help with housing

trying to rotate

an item

I am done

but when I exit out

it snaps back

oh

I got to click on a different object

I got it

[frosty pivot]

just got back into this game... what's the best way to relearn rotations? I've never used a dummy before, is that the best way?

i just don't want to spend hours on a dummy with different classes...kinda beats the purpose of getting back into the game for fun 🙂

[spiral inlet]

what level are you?

[frosty pivot]

like 80 with all tanks, and 60, 70+ with the other classes

[spiral inlet]

Are you doing rotations for your tanks?

[jade quartz]

It’s spending hours on a dummy

[frosty pivot]

I might use one tank to do msq, but I want to mainly level up my alt classes

[spiral inlet]

There are like opener guides

[sharp cedar]

Can the "Messenger of the Winds" be done as a group/party or is it solo only? Noctis keeps staying in the line of fire and not getting it lol.

I figured it was solo only but in case.

[frosty pivot]

i've never learned a full "proper rotation", I just spammed well enough to do decent dps. Where is/are the guide/s? and I assume rotations are different in dungeons vs raids?

[astral ice]

Genuine question, how can I get into savage raids? A lot of the recruitment thingies I find always required some sort of experience so I'm just intimidated by it lol
Sorry if it seems a bit dumb

[frosty pivot]

using a controller too so also kinda need help with learning how to set up my HUD, I finally want to try savage raids

[lunar nexus]

sucks for me because I'm using all 500 scrip gear, sounds expensive xd

[spiral inlet]

#tank-lounge

would probably be better help for you

or

#endgame-lounge

[lunar nexus]

would you consider it worth the expense? I'm doing this to get enough scrips to get all of the mounts and emotes, but if it's better to just spend the money I'd spend melding on the materials instead...

[frosty pivot]

thanks! just curious, is learning a "proper rotation" hard? or just time consuming? like how long would it take to learn it by muscle memory if I could spend hours on it?

[spiral inlet]

https://saltedxiv.com/drk

this is the guide I followed

for my dark knight

[frosty pivot]

YESSS, thank you, the site looks pretty and easy to follow...I used to main DRK, how long did it take you to get a rotation down if you dont mind sayin?

[slate arrow]

do you want it now or later

[spiral inlet]

I'm kind of dumb

so I don't follow that guide

100%

its more like guidelines

[violet moth]

what are some things a collector can do before leaving the free trial?

[slate arrow]

that being said I believe that they'll be changing the scrip values with Endwalker so either way you're going to have to gear up for it

[spiral inlet]

https://tenor.com/view/guidlines-pirates-of-the-caribbean-hector-babossa-georffrey-rush-gif-7844913

[lunar nexus]

I'm working towards it as a goal right now but I'd rather spend the least amount of money possible right now

[slate arrow]

I'd recommend doing it now then, since aesthetes gear is relatively cheap at this point in time

Endgame gathering gear will be fairly pricy once Endwalker drops

[frosty pivot]

lol ok, so ppl don't really get salty in savage raids if dps isn't perfect?

there's like leeway?

[slate arrow]

A clear is a clear, but you should understand your rotation

[spiral inlet]

^

[slate arrow]

That being said you have wiggle room because of 520 gear

[spiral inlet]

honestly

[slate arrow]

so you don't have to be perfect

just good enough

[spiral inlet]

MECHANICS > Rotations

[frosty pivot]

awesome! thanks for clarifying lol

[lunar nexus]

The reason I don't find it worth it to get Aesthete pentamelded gear is because it costs like 700k to get each of the material I need (times 3 so 2.1m). I'm under the impression that getting and pentamelding the gear would cost more than this.

[frosty pivot]

one of the reasons i never got into savage and ex is because i was paranoid ppl would judge me for my dps

[slate arrow]

You don't need to pentameld

You just need to hit the minimum bonus requirements

[spiral inlet]

I mean

if your not going for a worlds first

Lol

If your going into savage with a static

just make sure

everyone has the same goals

and objectives

and have fun!

[frosty pivot]

tysm ❤️

[lunar nexus]

Is there a guide somewhere for the optimal Diadem melds and what route is optimal so I can take a look at it and decide? Because I'm still not clear on what route (gathering or perception) would be better for my purposes, which is basically just to get as much of a specific material as possible

[slate arrow]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTnXbCjEBvNCX5u9fno-hdIL0C0ciC3nMChB2DhaWTd-v_uc5UH0TC5W9Ytgy7rWeAeIk_PPlOMSmiA/pubhtml

[lunar nexus]

I'll give it a look, thanks.

[sharp cedar]

Anyone got any insight on that? Either if it can be teamed or something else to do? I keep trying to keep her turned away but for the big thing she aims and Noctis stays right in front of it...every time.

Not sure what else to do there.

[slate arrow]

Are you using your warp strike

[sharp cedar]

I have both it and regular BLM attacks.

[slate arrow]

noctis more or less takes care of himself, if there isn't a stack marker just ignore it

[sharp cedar]

I can get her down but when she fires that big shot he stays right in front of it..

I try to keep her turned from him but for that can't seem to keep it.

[pulsar lichen]

Does anyone know what top this is?

[raven sage]

hempen camise on female highlanders

[pulsar lichen]

That thing looks so different on all the species, thanks!

[dreamy juniper]

uhh, is this little guy rare?

[naive ridge]

Unique but as rare as any other recruit

[sharp cedar]

Yep same thing, i'm done with it for tonight idk.

[autumn hedge]

Where should I get manuals for higher level crafters?

scrips or seals?

[charred gale]

How do I unlock these two gates to get to cloud top? I haven't figured it out. Maybe a HW spoiler location? but not really.

[dreamy juniper]

yellow crafter scrip shop has 80 manuals

[dreamy juniper]

lower cloudtop unlocked at 50 msq, upper unlocks at 58 msq

you literally have to do the msq to unlock any zone in hw, it's very restricted zone progression

[boreal storm]

The airship takes you to cloudtop

[dreamy juniper]

if you're talking about the weird gates, I haven't figured it out myself how to get to falcon's nest on foot

[leaden ginkgo]

Hello.
Question regarding Chocobo racing and Lord of Verminion.
Is there any up to date guide available?
My google-fu is lacking :(

PS, sorry for double posting.

[last mural]

It's a 'unique' recruit. There are only 10 'uniques', 1 for each race (except Viera and Hroth) and gender
What makes them 'unique' is that they wear unique costumes/outfits that stay the same as they level, unlike the generic armor sets of other recruits that change as they level.
Otherwise there's not much else to them. They're certainly as "rare" as any other recruit.

[noble orbit]

henseldak, yes, the party finder tool

[oak granite]

This is the top right corner of the churning mists. Is there no way to get to this island without flying? Im trying to do a hunt and cant find a way to get there

[proud willow]

There's no way to get to it without flying

[leaden ginkgo]

@proud willow thank you so much!

[charred gale]

Thanks :)

[leaden ginkgo]

hey what are the optimal stats for when you allocate points for your shadowbringers relic for paladin?

[solar moat]

Hey uh, how does the fight mechanic work in the quest In The Dark of Night? I need to do something with the pillars that spawn in the fight, but I can't target them for some reason.

[river vortex]

whats the deal with six-sided star? When would i want to use it?

[spare plinth]

if i do fashion week every week during the ffxv collab, will i have enough for the regalia

[warped nest]

When the boss becomes un targetable, or when there is a long stretch of time where you cannot stay in melee range

[barren shard]

You dont shoot them stand in them

When the boss comes to you they disappear

[solar moat]

Huh. I did that but still got chunked by a shockwave. Ig I didn't stand in it long enough

[frail fulcrum]

Can i add a custom sfx if I fell of the edge?

[fluid quartz]

anyone know whre the 3rd quest for the fx colab is messenger of the wind> im in uldah

[cursive ridge]

this is probably ARR/HW materia, right? waste of a chemistry?

[boreal storm]

Grade 4 I believe

[cursive ridge]

what bonus item do you guys usually choose from priority squadron missions? they all seem pretty minor

i guess +15% exp from mob kills is okay, but you rarely kill many mobs in a row for it to be efficient

[urban juniper]

can anyone tell me the difference between jet black and soot black dye?

[cursive ridge]

i wonder if squadron crafter/gatherer exp boost stacks with the +150% one

they're different tones of black

[urban juniper]

are they?

[cursive ridge]

jet

soot

[golden vine]

And soot is not always black,in some outfits its kinda greyish

[urban juniper]

interesting

[solemn jewel]

undertones completely different

[cursive ridge]

different tones

[upbeat gorge]

guys just go a tower shiekld

[urban juniper]

the difference is so insignificant though

[upbeat gorge]

should I choose block rate or block strengh?

the tower is higher level tho

[solemn jewel]

on this one, sure, but in other outfits its way more noticeable

like caspianRoachs example is way different

[cursive ridge]

that's a good thing, considering jet black is either bought for real money or a rare drop from ingame lootboxes from various activities

[urban juniper]

true

[stoic leaf]

how do i change the location of this

[urban juniper]

hud options > change to duty, move it
