tbf arrows wouldn't have allowed him to do all the stuff he needed to do
A question about PLD's Cover
Cover?
||G'raha Tia|| is a Black Mage as DPS, Paladin as a Tank, and a White Mage as a healer in terms of available skills and weapons used
Do you take all of the damage meant for the partner or would it be reduced when it transferred to you since you have higher defense than them? 
!action Cover
Quick crafting question; only way to get White Scrips is by turning in Collectibles?
Well you still take dmg when you protect thrm
Before reduction
Wait a minute
How to report bots?
I remember I die at the universal when I used cover and I died
And then Hallowed ground while cover, still taking damage
Yup
If you cover aoe damage you get hit twice
Paladin full armored
Fucking hilarious when it's a knockback
there's weekly deliveries but otherwise yes it's collectibles
Ah, yeah I did those 12 already to level up, so perhaps next week then.
Aside from obtaining full 500 ilv gear from Scripts, what can I use them for?
But in short, it uses your defensive and mitigation buffs except hallowed
you can use them to buy materials that you may use or sell for a decent amount of money
white crafter scrip material usually sells for much more than gatherer's
is there a way to tell when a collectible will be asked for if its not present day, or is it completely random?
for weekly deliveries?
Collectibles do not rotate any more
Oh
Thanks a lot.
Custom deliveries change weekly
Any rarefied item can be turned in on any day
yeah the only thing that changes is weekly deliveries week to week
otherwise turn in anything
How huge of a waste would it be to get full 500 ilv (Already completed) and then obtain the 440 ilv gear for looks? :x
ok so an Othardian Salmon collectible, if the NPC isn't asking for it (Collectable Appraiser) does that mean its useless to me as a collectible?
That is an item for Adkiragh deliveries.
Items that can be turned in to the collectable appraiser are all named “Rarefied xxxx”
does ffxiv have a setting to zoom out further?
No
500 is worth getting if you're doing to gather a decent amount
440 scrip will just be an objective loss but if it's for looks it's really up to you
Glamour is always worth
dopamine > gil
I just thought having 500 ilv for every crafter I'd get to 80 would be beneficial in general
But I see there's not that much that requires it.
Looking to burn Poetics and I'm out of Orchestrion and I don't need gear. I've read that the Relic weapons need poetics eventually, is there something easy I can dump on there to prep for that if I haven't progressed those quests yet?
Just buy the unidentified stuff and turn them into soils for money
HW relic is the poetic sink
Unidentified stuff? Soils?
!faq poetics
Soils are for gardening and sell decently well on market
Usually the crossbreeding onr
OK, thank you
Where did the Seventh Umbral Calamity take place? Was it* Mor Dhona?
Yep yep! Dalamud
Carteneau Flats, southwest of Mor Dhona on the world map
Sweet thanks so much!
It’s now the PvP map Borderland Ruins
is magic hammer in technocolor masked carnivle not 100% drop?
ah ok thanks
I'm kinda scared of this message and that this is the first time we've gotten this warning, given that there have been some pretty long scenes already. How long is this?
end of ARR scene I think
Like 40 minutes
oh jeez, ok. thanks
yeah that's wh at I'm saying, there's been some long ones already WITHOUT the message
so, if i want to do the extreme trials, do i have to do them synched before i can do that unsynched? Because i wasnt able to join a party...
No
do you have the quests for them unlocked
yeah i do
You can’t Unsync them at all
Shadowbringers content as a whole*
basically if its non-current expac content, you can unsync
tbh, unless you really want to do them as they were, i would suggest just waiting until you're max lv
Except for Ultimates.
…And Guildhests for some reason.
and comeback to them later
since a lvl 80 can very easily unsync the ARR extremes
most of the HW extremes can be done unsync by war/pld

Can you get music files off the OST Blu ray disc using your Playstation?
hi guys, im trying to get zonureskin map, but so far ive went to like 20 diff nodes and it keeps giving me gliderskin map. is that normal?
rng is rng
keep on going
really stupid question: will there be more expansions after endwalker?
i see. imperator/onyx, can i go out of an area, then go back (e.g. fort jobb) and it will change? or should i go to a diff area?
@boreal storm oh cool, appreciated. cause I really isn't much of a reader
i mean, any 80 node has a chance to have a map and then a chance to be zonureskin but you can just peak in then change node
so I keep skipping dialogue
you need to clear that entire node integrity to reset the map chance but if you dont want to gather, just peak in, even change job(bota/miner) then eventually change zone
What is the pose/emote where dancers hold their weapons up
prolly battle stance or victory
Do you just mean /cpose?
Oh apparently it’s cpose with weapons unsheathed lol
I never tried unsheathing
Do you guys think its alright to do provisioning mission even tho it doesnt have star mark on it?
Yes, that’s why it’s there
provisioning missions give good exp even without being the requested item for the day
so would recommend doing them daily if you can
If you just aim for the star ones that’s just 3 things you’re leveling a day(?)
Which is inefficient
I’ve only healed in dungeons, anything in particular to keep in mind about healing in alliance raids or trials?
Do we have access to the art that was shown in the live letter/job action trailer?
IMO, you should never need to heal the other parties for a 24-man raid.
they have their own healers that can handle it, though helping with raises if a lot of people die is recommended
as for trials, honestly it feels like a game of healing chicken on who heals first
And sometimes you get a co-healer who is overly eager on healing any damage ASAP
Which basically tells me "I want to solo heal the fight, so just spam your dps buttons"
i usually raise the healers in another alliance or maybe a rdm but i wont heal em
I usually just throw a quick heal if one of their healers are down for people I raise.
ayee
does anyone know if there's a way to see if someone's used your Refer-a-Frien code?
when it comes to healing, i usually wait a bit with healing (ppl getting reasonably low) and if the co-healer starts healing earlier then i just let em do it
on the mogstation it indicates if someone used it, but it doesn't say who
it just says # of people
also doesn't indicate which code, if you've got a couple floating out
I have a question about plugins: is there any plugins that allows me to toggle rmb camera movement (i don't really like how I have to hold on to rmb to move camera)
here?
i've posted like 6 codes to both the reddit and the forum 
The game wont let me move on in palace of the dead. It keeps saying "unable to regiester duty not yet unlocked" what do I need to do to stop it from saying that?
floor 51?
Oh I have to talk to the guy again nevermind lol
Hello
My friend is trying to transfer her account from free trial SE from Steam version
can u do that?
yes
I dont think so, but i might be wrong
yes, you can
The SE trial does not lock you into SE
its the steam trial that locks you into steam
ah, i see
Yeah, had that problem with steam, so wasnt sure if it worked the other way around
Thank you so much
after a potd run can i just abandon the duty after killing the boss
how do people teleport out
Question about the live letter translations, I was scrolling up and saw translations for reaper and sage, were any made for Monk abilities?
talk with exit then either another exit on the left to get out or queue for the next set of floor on the right
monk section is started with Greased Lightning
oh I meant like the tool tips more so :o
like how sage had like all them compiled and on the google doc
sage and reaper got google docs cos they're new jobs
most of what was shown for mnk wasn't new
and then SMN which basically a complete rework
right, just curious as monk was the other job who got alot of their tool tips shown, a friend was wondering about seeing some of the new blitz and newer wind icon translated
Thanks for the advice, def enlightening, Sasha too
Leveling a smn rn

looked too sick
does anybody have a tip on how to tank the room in dzemael just before the floating eye boss? do you kill all mobs first before standing in the second lock?
you can kill all the mobs first or stand in the locks while killing the mobs with the crystal light on it
yeah the crystal lock is the easy part
but when i try to speed it up and do the second lock while having mobs on me, the boss attack does so much damage
even with all tanking cds i dip very low
just do the lock last
yeah kill all the mobs then do the locks
ye thats the mechanic, the eye is supposed to p much kill you if you dont focus on staying on the glowy light
force-teaching u the mechanic 
i just wanted to speed things up >_>
eh how much longer is it? 15 seconds
also, about caster mobs - is the only way to group them up in this game is LoS?
pretty much
in wow, if you interrupt a caster mob cast, they will come to you in melee for a few seconds
Can you get music files off the OST Blu ray disc using your Playstation?
no
For certain duties, i.e. story ones where you play as another character, my gamepad hotbar does not switch to the duty given one. So I end up having to play with kbm for that section. Is it possible to fix this?
What do I do with my poetics please? Can I use them to make Gil somehow? I want to do more raids but I am capped at 2000 poetics and I don't want to waste Raid runs.
!faq poetics
i dont use cross bar myself, but check if these are checked, maybe it will help?
Yeah they are, I checked that myself too
Thank you and now I know how to search the FAQ! ❤️
do you mean like when you ride magitek in prae, the hotbar does not visible?
Ran into the problem during a duty in Shadowbringers
having a hard time finding the right FC, any tips?
My hotbar is my characters abilities, with the duty abilities on a separate kbm setup hotbar
you can put duty action on hot bar
under action and trait menu> action tab> put both Duty action I and II on hotbar
Hey, does this mean that if i'm on free trial rn i can not pre order game?
ah gotcha so i better buy complete edition
find fc that have less than 30 members
I don't mean the actual duty ability, I can use that on gamepad just fine. I mean when you're given a character with like 4-5 abilities and the hotbar wont switch so I can use my gamepad for that section
ahh
okay i need to do some math now:DD
however as soon as you add a code for any of these
you're locked out of free trial
and you need to buy gametime to play
uhu
Not til after your free 30 days of course
ty for help :>
what about this setting?
What do you usually do once you hit 80 and you havent completed MSQ yet?
Good tip. My problem is I'm lvl 76 getting to 80 for the first time. I'm a returning player. Seems tough finding people but maybe I should hold until I'm 80
Would it better to continue with a 2nd job?
guys, if I use only the versatile lure can I finish the fishing log? or it is advisable to get all baits and lures? My retainer can get like 15 fish tops
you cannot
fishing is way more complicated in this game
use this website https://en.ff14angler.com/ to see which lures you need for what
You specifically need to catch the fish for it to count for the log
I know how it works, and I was trying to bypass that
to use the MSQ experience, that 2nd job lvl has to be at least equal to quest level, so if it like 70, you need so pause MSQ for like 1-2 week to level alt job
also once you get to very hard to catch fish, this website has the answers https://ff14fish.carbuncleplushy.com/
A big fish tracker for FF14 that uses rarity to sort
And you can’t
a lot of fish need some sort of specific lure
I mean....
@umbral dune Oh geez, okay ty
technically versatile lure can be used for most fish
guess i gotta spam dungeons to match msq level req
when you're going after specific fish though, its ideal to use specific bait for it
versatile lure also often has like 1% chance of catching some fish in the hole
I was going to use garland and do per area http://www.garlandtools.org/ffxivfisher/
Catch all the big fish in Final Fantasy 14. Weather is updated in real time. Color code fish of interest or ones you've caught and optionally filter by color.
when other lures have like 75%
well part of the problem is tho
that those numbers aren't quite correct
as its based on information gathered by players using those baits and using the plugins
versatile is a new bait introduced later on, so it doesn't necessarily have the same amount of information gathered with it
that said tho, generally if you are going for a specific fish you want specific bait
versatile is "I don't care what i'm going for, i want to save space"
i just kinda gave up on fishing after learning that it has like an inventoryful of different lures
and even more different garbage fish
which aren't used for anything
I just want the shark mount
I understand. I have fisher 80 and item level 500, so I will get the baits and lures per area, I guess it is easier to track, but I will have a look at the tracker app
the tracker app is mainly for very hard to catch fish
I could just check which fishes sell properly and use the retainer only for those
I will start like that, check levequest for fishes and get all those. Then later if I feel inclined (couch... never will) I do the rest. Thanks guys
chest is Augmented Shire Philosopher's Coat
been looking at the new summoner stuff in EW, am I wrong or does the new gap closer seem to be only useable when in the Ifrit 'stance'?
it's called dildo on a forehead
@hazy heath not the channel for this
Seems like it yes
hmm yeah, ngl that's a little disappointing but makes sense I suppose, RDM's gap closer has a cooldown so they're both not always useable
i have only ever played as one class and now i want to branch out and level another one now that im max...how do i even do it? lol
are stat increases from gear additive or do they not stack
like
if I equip a Sunstone Bracelet and a Sunstone Earrings
would I get Skill Speed +3 or +6?
!faq altlvlguide
gotcha
a bit used to games where they wouldn't stack because they'd be the same "type" of bonus, you'd only get the highest
can you matchmake potd floors 100+?
no, fixed party only
no

hey guys
where can i find the vanu costume set
im already sworn with a sanuwa but i cant find it for sale?
nada
i wanna become a giant bird so bad 😦
are you sworn or bloodsworn
Did you do the quest "The nest of honor" quest?
allied is for the zanu costume (which is the red version)
Was anything said about data center travel in the live letter? I left after the job changes.
oh
the vanu (blue version)
its delayed til after 6.0
Newbie and looking for some hotbar tips
I forgot
How many jobs + DoH/DoL class?
This the main ones I had;; I spam the top left 3, and 💪 when I can mrd so far
18 combats + 8 DoH/ 3 DoL, soon 20 combats
No job yet I need to do the pride & duty msq 🤦
Damn
i dont use controller so i can't exactly help much but
you can take lesser used spells off of your first set
stuff like limit break and stuff
Okies, I never know when I will need that
Or I can use the second hotbar for it
Ii still have a hard time getting the targeting pattern thou
When it comes to Fashion Report, fo I have to wear only per se, 3 things that are required for 80 points, or I can wear a whole set which includes 3 things needef for 80 points?
I heard it better to have one thing in each spot for just extra points?
you need to have every slot, but offhand and belt, filled when you submitting yourself for judging
^^
Noted, thanks
So I know this is a big no no in the TOS but I wanted some high resolution mods to make the graphics better. I tried to install them but then the launcher came up but the game never launched, I thought I did it right. If anybody could, could you help?
How did you install them?
Your necklaces, rings, bracelets and earring can be visible depending on what gear may or may not be on top of them. So they count

Tex tools. And there were two that were .ini files (Alex's reshader or something?) and in the tutorial it showed me how to put it directly into the game files which he said was the right way to do it
Now I'm currently reinstalling my game
But I'd really like higher end graphics, especially because I got a new system that can run it
Could it be that some of the textures clashed? I didn't realise but two different mods altered face textures, and one of them altered eye textures (if that counts?)
Hi! I have an interesting question
I have a "starter pack" of the game (A Realm Reborn and Heavensward), if I buy Endwalker in steam I'll get a key, will it open for me Shadowbringers before Endwalker's release?
got it, thanks.
was there a way to search for a specific item in the glamour dresser?
If any of you are experienced modders can you help me with this?
check this discord https://discord.gg/ffxivtextools
Sweet thanks
for the lvl 60 relic quest line is grinding alexander or msq raids quicker
A9S is fastest but you need an unsync party
gain double amount per run with the same time spend
it gets weird with stuff at the same item level
it probably sees the potential of overmelding as "better"?

(even though it's less total secondary stats)
Hey so even if I'm someone who is upgrading a house, are my chances of purchasing a medium sized plot on a crowded server like Balmung still pretty low?
Because I imagine there's gotta be a lot of people who are looking to upgrade their plot...
So I'll be racing against all of them, since timers don't apply to any of us.
extremely slim
When I went to upgrade my FC house to a medium the last time new wards got added, I had to log in the instant servers went up and get a queue of less than 200 (went for Shirogane)
and even then there were already people in the new housing wards with all the larges immediately bought/relocated and most of the mediums gone.
This was within the first 5 or 10 minutes of the server being up.
(for reference, Gilgamesh is one of the biggest servers in NA and is generally comparable in size to Balmung)

Most but not all, so that's something I suppose.
Also, the number of wards being added this time around is gonna be probably the biggest increase in a long time.
So there's that to factor in as well.
So I guess it's still worth a shot either way.
And to say this completely seriously, but an SSD will be a major help if you don't have one already
Ye I got one.
👍
And a connection speed of over 650 Mpbs.
theres no cap on appartments right
Though there's a chance I might be in a new place by the time they add the new wards in 6.1 or whenever.

And I dunno what my speed will be then. :x
i want my ishgard housing
technically, apartments have an extreme upper limit of 512 per ward/subdivision that SE can use when they feel it's needed, compared to the current limit of... 90 per ward/subdivision?
will allergory convert to poetic with EW? will it happen automatically, or you visit a vendor and trade?
yes and yes to the latter
you go to the poetics vendor in mor dhona to trade in allegory and revelation into poetics
it won't be automatic
I’m level 34, worth restarting in a preferred world for the bonus? Took me about a day and a half to get to 34 and I’m not really far into the game yet
go for it
it is still early so yeah, you can catch up that level very quickly
getting back to 34 will be fast since you can skip cutscenes and dialogue you already done
How would you recommend balancing out my exp gain between classes ?
and you'll have a general idea of where things are
recommend to play 2 class at once cuz you will be likely to overshoot your level if only one class, but it is up to you 😄
EXP-wise, preferred server story can easily do 2 or 3 jobs at once
I won’t be able to get the other classes until a certain point in story
gear-wise, it entirely depends on what roles said jobs are.
is it true ||bahamut and omega raids are required to progress in 6.0? ||
No.
even non-preferred server xp can be too much for a single job if you do dailies
Also if I make a new character will they have the stuff I bought from the online shop ?
well, it is very fast to reach that point if u skip story, unless you play another starter city and prefer to read
don't keep all your classes on the same level, have some sort of "main" be at least 4-5 levels above, so managing the armoury bonus isn't gonna be a headache
By skipping story you mean skipping the entire quest itself ?
how long does it take to clear eureka and bojza for the first time if i'm not planning to make relic weapons?
I mean skip cutscene and stuffs XD
Oh ok
Ishikawa suggested doing them before 6.0, but she also recommended doing all side content so
probably a couple days for Bozja, a week or more for Eureka depending on how active the instances are.
only if they were account wide, like some mounts. Clothing not
Good I’ll have them then
the writer of the game's story heavily recommends doing those if nothing else, but really you should do as much of the side content as possible as endwalker will bring closure to everything we have seen so far
hmmm i hope i still have time b4 EW, currently at level 77 MSQ. planning to do as much as content as possible
Is it possible if I were to complete a quest as a gladiator but claim the mission rewards as lancer, or would the lancer have to be the same level as the mission level requirement
same level as the mission
So how do you guys go about levelling the other classes then
!faq altleveling
!faq altlvlguide
thank u
accepting and turning in quests requires you to be the same level or higher than the quest
I can just run to the other areas and get the classes right ?
long story short: dungeon spam, potd/hoh to lvl
Then teleport back to where I started
or just wait until story takes u there
if you don't start in limsa or the job you want doesn't come from limsa, yes.
I’m taking advantage of the road to 70 buff though
i would probably wait until at least you finish the story of ARR so that you have flight and can quickly move around
to that end if you want to avoid super long queues as dps, if you start as a tank or healer you'll clear the story much quicker
Yep I’ll be starting as gladiator
Gonna start after work, aim to unlock all the classes right before I start my play through
Probably easiest way to grind them all out then
not really
you can't really do that
nor does it make sense to
you need job lvl 10 and some place in msq to even be able to change job
Oh damn
Whats good materia for dancer?
if you wanna craft?
i'd say pick 1 or 2 jobs and then do main quest with them
and the others u can lvl outside of it
it's best if you wait until you finish all MSQ up to shadowbringers to level every single job, for clearing the story i'd just stick to 3-4 jobs max
this is because you'll be doing it super inefficiently, it would take an enormous amount of time
if you split up ur main story exp too much ur gonna be locked cus ur underleveled
but if you wait until the end of MSQ you can use ever faster methods of leveling
So just go with the main jobs first then wait to do weaver and stuff ?
plus in general you'll have a better idea of how the game works
disciple of hand and land (crafters and gatherers) are a whole different game
and those benefit from having all areas unlocked with flight most of all
Oh ok
so personally i would never bother with them until you have done all msq up to shadowbringers
Alright thanks for the info appreciated
if you try them out and like them, then i suggest you do ample research before starting to get into crafting
Btw does hp come from a combination of all jobs hp stat ?
Oh damn
playing other jobs doesnt give anything at all for the job you're currently using
crossclassing has been deleted
but it will make you better at playing the game if you play multiple jobs
playing a healer can give some valuable perspective if you like playing tanks
playing dps will teach you how to handle complex rotations
I’d want to build on all jobs just to be able to rotate between them if necessary
having all jobs at max and geared is already gonna take long enough, but even fewer people can play all classes across all roles well
if you want to be flexible it's best to choose a main out of all roles
yeah if you want bis gear on all jobs good fucking luck lmao
Even on tomes XD
What are the values again?
Been a few weeks since I actively paid attention to tome cost
I know head, gloves and boots are over 1 week, and accessories are under 1 week
At normal rate
I'd say one job each role is good enough
835??? I thought it was 825
uh, might be
How much for helms? 490?
So it’d take just over 10 weeks to get one set of gear with tomes at the normal rate
@leaden ginkgo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCVcgZ8dtD0 watch this if you haven't, this game is extremely well balanced, meaning that if you like to play tank, all tanks are virtually the same in terms of performance, you can just choose to play whatever you like the most visually (you don't need to bother about the "meta" because there is none, all jobs are equally viable)
Add an extra 3 weeks for weapons unless relics are somehow on pace
And with 7 sets of gear that’s just barely over 72 weeks via tomes to gear EVERYTHING
if you go the savage raid route of gearing it can be done faster
(Not counting weapons)
but you're still gonna need tome gear for bis
If your static can clear and doesn’t have dead weight
what to buy with poetics? i see people say to buy grade 3 soil but they sell for nothing
oh speaking of the job action video is the music are from future expansion or from current expansion? i really like the song thats starts playing with gun breaker

Unlocking Rhalgr's Reach House of Splendors (Rhalgr's Reach x10, y12)
Unlocking Eulmore's House of Splendors (Eulmore at x11, y10, on the top floor)
I think the crystarium scrip exchange is tied to starting one of the crystalline mean questlines
Or a minimum level...
do we know a formula of how the BLU-specific overworld extra mob xp works?
for the relic weapon can i get replicas of the awoken and final or just awoken
For BLU exp, no idea, the vast majority of us that were working on the class had them leveled asap in groups
i've been doing everything solo so far and i'm lvl 38 at the moment
just watching a tv show and killing mobs
Yea, it’s going to take a bit solo
seems to be going pretty quick
From 60-70 took groups about an hour, give or take, depending on food, FC buffs, and mob spacing lining up with chain bonuses
Crafting seems really intimidating, I've almost finished HW but has yet to level a single DoH/DoL profession.
How do I get started and go about levelling it efficiently?
Define “efficiently”
if you don't enjoy it, you don't need to do it
I heard that you can use unlocked hair in the endwalker benchmark but i just tried and there isn't anything
With as little gil spent as possible I guess?
Do you just mean most exp, or a way to learn the system
you can spend close to zero if you just go and gather stuff yourself
you can't.
DoL is a lot of money for gear
DoH is a lot of money for gear and mats

you can level both without buying gear
Yeah that's partly why I have been holding it off
Yea, if you pick up gathering as well (for the most part you can ignore fisher if you want) you can get basically everything you need
just craft it yourself from mats that are easy to gather
Well if you like a bad gathering %
i've never bought gathering gear for gil and i've always had close to 100%
Youll need gear to craft, itll require you to have x amount of points in a stat tho
Do we have access to the art that was shown in the live letter/job action trailer?
Is there a step by step guide on what mats are needed and what to craft level by level so as to save as much gil as possible?
Reaper and Sage’s should have been included in the recent fankits
Um... no? i want to say no, but there are tools/sites here and there that have calculators for compiling your list of materials
Tbh youre not gonna be saving that much gil, lower level mats just require more to be crafted, you can check MB for prices and check whats easy. Most guides are outdated and MB price likes to change a lot
you can pretty much save most of your gil if you gather everything yourself
just start doing it to be honest
@thorn thicket I was talking abou the art for like dancer and astro
it's all quite self-explanatory
I don't know where the new art is located
Yea, just check the fan kits
just make sure to note which actions get you more exp
for the quest, the resistance remembers, can i just queue alliance raids in duty roulette do accquire the memories i need for the step or is it certain ones? thanks
Lodestone, it was updated on the 17th
Where do you guys dump your poetics? I dont need equipment for now, i did my heavensward relic (just for 1 character, dont want more for now)
i believe its the crystal tower raids
you can roulette but its random
you can equip i130 gear to get crystal tower raids only from the roullette
ty for info!
I use the Susano art as my background picture 
!faq poetics
Either mats for a new anima or just sth you can sell
I buy Scaevan accessories to turn into GC seals
or to desynth for leveling up my desynth
Or just stop worrying about them
Sooner or later you hit the point of “i can’t be bothered”
Mobile moment
https://press.na.square-enix.com/Final-Fantasy-XIV-Endwalker#?tab=artwork-8 has the PLL artwork @scarlet hinge
the job trailer artwork is basically old promo artwork
will there be full artwork of the pll ones u were talking about
like the reaper and sage ones
except for reaper and sage, which should be on the site i linked
ok
do I use the Thavnairian Onion at the stables or just right click use is fine? my chocobo is rank 10 and is at 0xp
right click use
worked, cheers
does ping matter much in ffxiv?
Hello ! i've seen that zeplaHQ did a video listing everything we must do before endwalker, but something tells me it will have spoilers.
I'm at the end of stormblood before the stormblood patches (4.0 i think ?)
Could anyone tell me if i have things i MUST do before endwalker without post stormblood spoils ?
Thank you very much sorry if its a hard one to answer
if you're not at the level cap, that video probably doesn't apply to you
in some cases like mch burst phase you lose some potency with bad ping
she just recaps that you need to go farm old raids unsynced and stuff
but for normal gameplay you should be fine
because unsynced old raids will be removed ?
no
and that coils of bahamut raid and omega raid are story important raids
it might become harder to do
because of the stat squish
it's supposed to compensate by special echo buff
but we don't know how well it will work yet
oooh because less people will do them also
not because less people will do them
but because their story is important to endwalker story
okok
the lead writer also suggested to go do all job quests
How do you rotation with blm at 50
as they are supposed to be important too
Im still confuse
lol imma level all jobs to 80 before november lets gooo
!faq blmleveling
kind of sad ill miss the release hype
the previous expansions are still very much cool and interesting content
Thx
do tank specs also meld for maximizing dps?
can you hold 2 augmented shire rings of the same type?
yes
old tomestone rings aren't unique for easier gearing
so when 6.0 hits, Cryptlurker rings won't be classified as unique
I see, thanks
hey fellas, just reinstalled the game on my new PC and for some reason whenever i hold left click and move my camera around while moving, my character moves in the same direction and I can't seem to find the option to turn it off. any ideas?
Switch from legacy to standard camera
you are using legacy camera, open character configuration> switch camera to standard
What's the fastest and/or most efficient way to gather haunting and vexatious memories of the dying?
spam fates while in queue for Void Ark and Rabanastre
most people do either the Fringes or Lochs for one set of crystals, and then the Azim Steppe for the other type of crystal
whats this skills https://i.imgur.com/NyYRSWH.png did they get removed from the game i dont see them
Yes
Thaliak’s Ward, Byregot’s Ward etc., used to increase elemental shard yield when gathering
Functionally replaced by the Twelve’s Bounty
ah i see
how come there's no rogue as starting class?
If i can't find my country in the list what should I do:c
no jobs that were added later in the game are available as starting classes
Because it got added later
rogue was added in 2.4
i can only become rogue after lv 10?
yes
ok thanks
use a country close to you and make a fake address, make sure to write it down somewhere just in case if support ever asks for it
hey guys, my friend has the base game of ffxiv installed, and for some reason on mogstation it doesnt allow him to add a time card, but it gives him the other options, i bought him a time card but for some reason he cant redeem it, does anyone know why?
address only actually matters if you're buying physical products
time cards can only be used when on a standard subscription
they need to update their sub to be standard instead of entry to make use of it
ohhh right, ill see into that, thanks very much!
should i download the game from offical launcher or quickluncher
quicklauncher avoids a lot of common errors that can happen when downloading the game
I've all flying which is has a better lv sync so i can delete fate fast
alright
Hi, I was wondering if there is a channel or different discord with people tracking / announcing rare Fates or world event such as Behemoth. Thank in advance 🙂
Nice; thank you 😄
make sure to get the correct roles for the fates you want to be notified for , so when they ping those fates are up you get it
hey guys, turns out it didnt work, i got my friend shadowbringers and the base game, and it says he has them and the standard subscription, but for some reason he cant add a time card code

is there some way to unable the main screen music?
if I found a rank A hunt somewhere should I announce it?
Yeah
If I cancel the retainer fantasia while editing the appearance I can edit them again without using another retainer fantasia right? like normal fantasia
What is pentameld?
5 materia in 1 item
Crafted items can be pentamelded
What if not crafted?
overmelding from what im told
Non crafted items can't be pentamelded
Sad
the chance for meld success gets depressingly low after the first 2 if the item doesnt already have 5 sockets
So augmented exarchic is better than augmented cryptlurker?
I saw my friend breaking down while penta melding for his crafter gears lol
Can we aks the materia melder to do that?
Augmented cryptlurker by far
no, materia melder doesn't overmeld
They can’t overmeld
Only players can overmeld
no, 530 >>>>>>> 520
what should i buy with Allagan Tomestone of Poetics
!faq poetics
Because the 530 stuff has more main stat like strength or intelligence which increases your damage way more than any other stat really
BiS is a mix of aug cryptlurker and Eden Savage gear, iirc
I see
How to make augmented cryptlurker again? I have the coins but i dont know how to lol
give the coins to Fathard in eulmore to exchange for the upgrade item
where d oyou guys lvl up 1-15?
Hunting logs and fates
to be really pedantic the relic weapon is bis for (most/every?) job but that doesn't matter much
And we need to retrieve the materia before doing the augment right?
Yes
how do i access hunting log?
Alright thanks!

Hi, I tried subscribing for the first time and chose crysta as payment. Would the 30 days be automatically added once the 2 days remaining runs out?
You don't have to but they'll be deleted in the process
if you have enough crysta in your account, yes
ok, thanks! 
Is exp from fates in bozja and zadnor determined by your level, or resistance rank?
Level
Does anyone know how to change my card info for recurring subs? It looks like it doesn't allow me when I click the change payment option cause they're both VISA
Pretty sure you need to cancel your current recurring sub and make a new one
nvm! I found it under Service Options. Thank you anyway!
hi guys is the eu chat support broken?
How can I look up appearances of Chocobo Barding?
So this guide says to do leve quests to level my botany and culinary skills fastest
So I just Google the level quests for those jobs and do the ones similar to my level or ?
ah lol
leve quests, the grey question marks you have to unlock at each town and do, not level quests
https://latetothepartyfinder.com/ffxiv-chocobo-barding-guide/ @little fulcrum
If you’re the kind of player who’s interested in glamour, I’m betting that probably extends to your Chocobo companion as well, and you’d prefer to give them a stylish look that complements your own attire. As soon as you unlock your combat buddy you actually have the ability to change its appearance without requiring any […]
thanks
Shotgun, chain saw blades and new finisher for Queen. 2 Reassemble charges
But do I just do leve quests around my level or the highest leve i find?
also, is it worth it to get into bard? Because I like bow weapons but i heard bard is just shitty dancer
It's fine
lmao
It's not a shitty dancer
you have to try
well they play instrument not dance
hey guys, im an american currently living in Taiwan and wanna try ff14, i heard the japan servers are english friendly is that true?
elemental dc
no job is worse than any other
Bard has full party buffs, dancer buffs the one dude
So I tried to reset my password due to suspicious activities (I'm coming back after hiatus), when I tried to reset it says birthdate invalid, then I email their support and provide my identification they replied that the birthdate on my id is the same on my account. any suggestion on what to do?
and even if he is worse (which he isnt)
unless you play the final and most difficult content in the entire game
it doesnt matter.
Did u maybe switch up month and day
you have too enter the birthday you entered when registering
yeah they said it match
oh reread it
try again i guess?XD
its the same number tho 😦
the day and the month
if it doesnt work send a screenshot too support
with correct bithday entered
and another one shwoing it failed
yeah i just reply to the initial email but the response time kinda long so i tried asking for suggestion
thanks for the reply guys
Is it normal to be like 15 levels ahead of the MSQ in ARR?
If you have road to 70, sure
yes
ARR msq gives a ton of xp enough too lvl 2 jobs
sadly you cant get the HW jobs yet who start at 30XD
oh yeah that too
Ok thanks guys
I was starting to get concerned
I don't even like thaumaturge so it will be a good switch
hello, does someone know if I decorate my small house and relocate to another small house later on, would I need to redecorate everything again?

oh that's a bummer
maybe you can try new design
i think ill just wait till I relocate to the new housing area in Endwalker
yea that will be better
do you guys think paladin will be the most played tank in ff14 with endwalker?
also, I have a dps to level 70, should I try and level up another dps or try and level up paladin
Personal preference
because i've been leveling summoner for a hot minute
and I miss my insta ques for tank lol
(personally speaking, I'd recommend doing them all)
Is Monk feasible for Extreme trial content?
well im leveling up smn up to 80 with SHB, but ill also be able to do roulettes a lot
All jobs are
FFXIV actively balance their Jobs
Worst case scenario is some jobs are not fun to play
But they will never go "nobody wants you in their party"
!faq meta
why in potd floors 51-60 used for leveling woudnt high floors give more exp
You can start on 51-60 over and over again
I don't think there's any information on which job are played most
I know that Yoshi-P will talk about which roles are more popular
In some of the live letter
But never talk specifics on which job are played most
ah, which ones are most popular
also i just kinda love using swords so ill probably play red mage to scratch that BLM and paladin itch i have
Just pick what you want
so fashion report is only for female toons?
and dual cast is pretty fun
No
Clothes can be worn by both genders
it gave alternatives.
If fashion report ask for pants and gloves, you still need to wear your hats, jackets, rings, etc
not to mention that bridesmaid's sandals are wearable by both genders
^
ok i thought these were all gender specific
The theme of Fashion report is picked by designers
They won't go with gender or race specific items
ok ty
so i can just wear whatever on the empty slots, it doesn't matter?
hands, rings, etc
i mean the slots other than hat, chest, pants, boots
ok
Excuse me, does anybody know if there's a region lock in the game, or is chaos/light data center not choosable right now?
!fashionreport
question: aside from the character limit, is there any other reason to take the standard subscription instead of the entry subscription?
nope
like you have the option too buy longer amounts of times with the standard one
so you dont have too redo it every month
ok, also, i only see credit card payments, are there paypal/ideal payment options?
yes you cna buy crysta with paypal
you can buy crysta with paypal and then buy sub with that
ok, thx
(you can buy the exact amount needed for the subscription)
last one, is there an option so that it doesn't auto-renew? or do i have to use gamecards for that?
i do not know as i always use crystaXD so its impossible too auto renew
just buy a month then cancel the subscription
it leaves the 30 days you bought
So I was wondering if anyone would know why somebody who downloaded the free trial version of FFXIV on a PS4 would get the error “unable to open content. You must purchase this content.” when they try to launch it.
maybe they didn't download the free trial
do you own it allrdy on pc with the same ffxiv account or have tried trial on pc? if yeah cant get trial again
From what I understand he got the free trial version and hasn't had one on the system before.
for example, if your friend had an account that already bought it, bought ffxiv, then downloaded it, then logged in into an another account
Or played it before at all.
Do you get any rewards from getting Heavensward beast tribes to max reputation, like the quest to get "Gratuity" for Stormblood beast tribes?
you get the option to buy mounts/minions
Thank you!
guys, i know this sounds stupid, but i forgot the name of the last duty i unlocked
can someone help me find out its name
60K. You guys are awesome! many thanks
I didn't think it was gonna be possible to get this car before the end date lol
thats all the info i have
Been seeing so many of these, but i never thought to ask until now... What are these?
It’s one of the Ampadors
i see
Keep or lost city
@boreal storm huge thanks
sightseeing log/ exp orbs
Oh, vistas for the Sightseeing log
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Sightseeing_Log
Oh...
well most of the expansion ones don't
Look upon the one on top of the pole in Kugane and weep.
There's only like 1 or 2 expansion ones that have time requirements
Yeah, i saw that one, idk how i'm gonna reach it since i can't fly
guys question
im on trial currently
can i preorder endwalker ?
or do i need sub+base game bought beforehand ?
you'll need the starter edition to use it but you could technically pre-order it
You need starter to register the code
you wouldn't be able to use any codes
you jump from the top of the holstery to get to the lampost one
or be a blu mage and use self destruct and have someone raise up there
you can preorder but cant use the code so cant get the preorder items like the earing since you cant register it on trial
Gotta climb the tower jumping puzzle, and then jump off the roof and make the pinpoint landing on top of the lamp. Good luck!
hmmm
if i wait for endwalker's release? i'd need to buy only the endwalker xpac ?
RIP
yes
You'll still need at least starter
starter + endwalker or complete
But you will save an expansion-worth of money since you won't need to buy Shadowbringers at that point
You’d also wouldn’t get the exp earring
so to save the most of money i should wait for endwalker ?
you don't save any money
oh if i preoder now id also need to buy shadowbringers alongside endwalker? sry but am a bit confused 🐻 with me
You don’t need to
Endwalker includes Stormblood and Shadowbringers
But only once it releases
But if you want to play shadowbringers now
Yeah
If you want access to STB and SHB now, you have to buy shadowbringers or complete edition
anyone have a list of all the faq commands?
!faq
ah i see
Administrative website for the Final Fantasy XIV Discord Bot
what channel can i use the bot in?
#kupo-bot-spam
You save money if you're not fussed about having to delay your stormblood and shadowbringers adventures
SHB and Endwalker are currently same price at 40 bucks each
If you want access to STB and SHB now, you have to spend 60 bucks and then another 40 on endwalker
If you wait, you only have to spend 60 bucks and just wait 
Hi all! What happens will I fill up my glamour dresser? What do retainers do? Are they storage?
if you run out of slots then you.. can't put more stuff in? what else would happen
and retainers are your extra bank storage, you put stuff on the marketboard through them and you can send them on ventures for random rewards or to gather materials for you
Let me be more clear regarding the glamour storage. I suppose the spirit of the question is there a way to increase it or that all the storage people have with regards to navigating their glamour?
you can't increase it
400 total, by the way. that's not per gear slot
Very well. Thanks for your answers. I’m not a huge glamour person but was curious.
the armoire slightly lightens the load but not by much
does this game have a gear catchup system in the .1 patches?
Major odd patches are the catch up patches
With the 24mans
Major even patches are new gear and raid tiers
is bluespirit ore the best way to get yellow scrips
how extreme are the catch up patches? for example in world of warcraft its kinda too much. that i can just get my gear where i worked couple months for can get really quick in the new catchup system.
24mans gives gear equal to the capped tome gear (1 piece per week) and has a currency (see nier coins, capped at 1 per week on launch) to buy tome armour and accessories upgrade so non raiders can get armour and accessories upgrades
There's also another extreme that gives a weapon that's roughly between the Capped tome and Upgraded tome weapons (see Diamond Ex at 525)
Weapon upgrades for the 24man currency gets added near the end of the odd patch series, a few weeks prior to the new raid tier
Relics get thrown in at some point whenever they're done and ready
ohh, alright thanks
How much is a tyrannosaurus horn worth?
You can't sell those
t-rex can't be sold
is it just me or the patch quest in SHB has loooonger and more frequent cutscenes
or im getting fatigue from starting from ARR
not many are voiced, maybe 20 to 30% tops
maybe its inaccurate estimation from me... haha
cutscenes take a lot of time and effort to make, so with increasing budget it's only natural they'll have more and more cutscenes
if you feel bored i'd suggest you do something else and come back later to the MSQ
it's content that was released over a year, binging it all together is bound to be tiresome
does the arr horse mounts have a collective name as a whole
Just ponies
primal horses
Ponies, primal horses, horses w/e
nothing easy like lanners or gwibbers unfortunately
can you still change weapons/armor that has been spiritbonded to 100% into materia?
if so how?
Yep, right click > "Extract Materia". The gear doesnt go away, just goes back down to 1% spiritbond instead*

have squeenix said anything about whether trust levels will stay the same in endwalker, or if they’ll get a free level bump? if mine are 71ish now, will they be 71 when i finish endwalker, if i don’t level them?
probably don't get a jump since it has a archivement tied to it
thats kinda annoying, okay thank you guys. thought i could get rid of some of my gear that way as i have maxed out my seals and i can't level up rn cause i need to do my squadrons thing first but i need space
yeah squadron didn't jump either
Spend those seals, then extract and turn in to free up space? Or start tossin undeed mats, etc.? Space is rough these days
at what point can I continue leveling up my GC rank?
I am first storm lt
need to run 5 unique dungeons with your squadron
for the flagged mission to appear
for capt
when you say 'run' you mean I go in with them mode?
yeah
ah,..ok
