forgotten but if i trade over items in exchange for crystal sand in order to make my HW relic, is that sand tied to the weapon i am working on or do i get it as a item in my inventory that i can use on any relic weapon?
twilit arch
nope, you can use the sand for any anima weapon
boreal storm
Treated sand is on a per weapon basis
devout lichen
am I just playing healer wrong or it's like this, cuz I tried astro never healed before and every fight is me pressing combust on everything and just healing and pressing malefic
twilit arch
ah ye, the treated sand is specifically for that weapon
but the crystal sand itself can be used for any
onyx kiln
so if i hand over some blue gatherer's scrips, i best do it with the weapon i plan to build up and not one i have already made it past that stage?
faint flare
am I just playing healer wrong or it's like this, cuz I tried astro never healed...
Healing is just DPSing until you need to heal
twilit arch
No, the crystal sand you exchange for can be used for any weaponn
its specifically when you exchange crystal sand and umbrite for treated sand that is specific to that weapon
onyx kiln
okay
so its safe to start stockpiling sand even before i get to that part with a second relic
regal lintel
thank you for the recommendation
twilit arch

rustic badge
why dont they make Blu a real job? seems interesting enough.
twilit arch
because they wanted to stay true to what Blue Mage is, which is learning different spells from mobs
rustic badge
yeah<>>they can still do that< and be a job< no?
twilit arch
and trying to force it to be a real job meant you'd either a. kill learning spells from mobs, or b. force players to get specific spells to do content
daring prawn
Better to purchase on Steam or Mog station PC?
heavy wadi
No, it'd be a major pain in the ass to balance blu.
boreal storm
i searched a guide it says step by step ok lv1 get water cannon then 3rd step is...
That’s just going by each spell
It’s not steps
heavy wadi
Blu would also probably become meta and the devs don't want that.
rustic badge
i can see balance< i guess
twilit arch
it doesn't matter. if you're someone who cares about buying things on sale, then going with SE store may be more desirable for you as steam doesn't go on sale very often. If you're someone who uses steam wallet a lot, then steam is a good choice since you can utilize steam wallet for sub/optional items @daring prawn
warm snow
Blu is inherently unbalanced and doesn't fit any real roles. So it's either make a shitty blue mage that isn't a blue mage.
Or make an accurate blue mage that's a law unto itself
warm snow
yeah<>>they can still do that< and be a job< no?
You really can't
It's like playing with lego except you have to follow the instructions 100% of the time

devout tiger
Hey everybody! So just curious, I’m trying to clear all duty finder content/notable instances with boss fights, however the boss fates (behemoth, ixion, Archaeotania, etc.) seem like a huge pain to hunt down. I know in the cases of behemoth and Odin, very similar fights exist in other forms of content like trials and raids-
So I guess I’m just curious, are most of the boss trials worth it if I’m moreso just interested in completion and not the rewards? Are the fights unique, or do similar versions for the others also exist elsewhere?
vernal urchin

in palace, why does it sometimes say "your aetherpool armor remains unchanged" ? I'm guessing that it's capped based on either floor or your level - is that right?
outer mural
aetherpool increases will be less and less likely on lower floors the higher it gets
lone totem
therefore it says "unchanged"
raven cloud
hrm, okay. thanks
lone totem
the higher floor you are on, the higher the chance your pools will upgrade
and in some cases, 100% guaranteed pool upgrades from bosses
I believe floor 50, floor 100, and then each boss up to 200
will always give you +1/+1

i got 3 so should i just dump them all into damage?
outer mural
damage > health > healing
lone totem
I did dps to 10 first and then did tank to 10, and then did healing last
outer mural
damage is the most importnat because it makes stuff die faster
health is if you need to survive mechanics and is generally just helpful but less important than damage
heal boost is fine but not necessary at all so it's super low prio
faint flare
All into damage, nothing else until it's capped

every duty in the game minus savage

If I change my data center, will the parties in party finder change as well?
slow crypt
every duty in the game minus savage
so basically everything including ex fights then?
lone totem
yup, all ex fights will appear
faint flare
If I change my data center, will the parties in party finder change as well?
Yes cause party finder is data centre wide
Different data centres have different party finders
lone totem
for now at least
tall bridge
Oh damn thats awesome. Thank you
lone totem
who knows if it will change eventually

you can't see duties you haven't done yourself or unlocked
tall bridge
Is this way of ffxiv to makes me wanna get a blue mage?
lone totem
so you only see the ones you have done up to level 60
tall bridge
If yes they are successfull cause I now want it and the mount
lone totem
blue mage is pretty much a job made specifically to do older content
and what you see in pf is just older content
tall bridge
ohhh that makes a lot of sense. Thanks a lot
lone totem
so seeing blue mage parties is common in that case

gray crescent

<@!642134104728535061>lastly, what does tower mean in e9s?
We usually call “the thing you need to stand in” as towers
faint flare
Same reason we call Donut aoes Dyanmos
And point blanks, we call them Chariots
For the real boomers

why cant we call it meteor
Mostly because there is like 12 different things that can be called meteors

So yeah
gray crescent
i was so confused, cause in my mrhappy he doesnt called it towers, and im in jp DC
okay okay, finally got the macros now to abit
ripe hound
Yeah, it’s just that when you say Meteors people will often be like “Which Metoers?”
Like, in SoSex, there is LB meteors, Mage Meteor towers
And then there are meteor adds you need to destroy
So yeah in general we try to avoid using “meteor” to describe any mechanic lol

At lvl 50 RDM, should I be saving my swiftcast

Those basically end at 70 with small catch up at 80

After I get raise, I would save it for that, right?

oh ok

You want to avoid jolt as much as possible
Swift allows you to get another aero/thunder to fish for procs

so pop swiftcast and then the highest potency spell I have?
faint flare
You use it on thunder/aero yes
To fish for procs
And helps boost mana as well
To get to melee combos faster

Hello all, quick question instead of popping back to Limsa and having to travel back. Can Allagan Tomestones be stored with the retainer? I've apparently hit 2000 and the next thing should give more...figured if not i would try and spend some prior.

Didn't realize there was a 2000 limit until it prompted.

hey guys, new to the game. what's a simple dps class to play? one that's as stationary as possible, since i have trouble moving and attacking at the same time. i won't be doing any serious group content, just whatever is required for the story.
eager skiff
all classes are viable
upper cove
Black mage 
eager skiff
and all simple enough
upper cove
Black mages have to stand still and cast. Which fits what you want
languid jasper
ok. think ranged or caster would be better than melee?
eager skiff
up to you
languid jasper
ok i'll check into black mage, thanks
eager skiff
black mage is turret mage 
languid jasper
how about bard and summoner, have to mash attack buttons while moving?

Yeah haha, playing Black Mage now that sounds like exactly what you are looking for.

Where can I check what kind of content I have to complete before the new expansion?

They usually don't remove content
It's extremely rare for content to actually be removed

Belts, HQ materials?

oooooone more question: does dragoon have a bunch of combos you have to remember, or basically one static rotation?
twilit arch
its a pretty static rotation
faint flare
Static rotation of 2 combo chains
You literally just bounce between the two the entire fight
last kayak
where do you get gear thats higher ilvl than Exarchic?
languid jasper
sounds pretty simple. thanks!
faint flare
Revelation tomes, Last nier raids Eden savage
ripe hound
btw does Dragoon stop functioning once the combo chain is broken?
ripe hound
I mean for SAM, I broke my 60s rotation and I no longer know how to recover
last kayak
eden is this xpacs version of bahamut right?
ripe hound
For NIN, I misline a TA I kinda want to jump
faint flare
Yes
ripe hound
I think DRG hurts a lot less?
languid jasper
ah crap, you screw up the rotation and you're screwd?
faint flare
No
last kayak
ok ty
ripe hound
As in you can just kinda line stuff back up and keep going?
faint flare
Your gcds will be out of wack
But as long as your life windows aren't fucked up you'll be fine
ripe hound
Like I have like... 3 days of experience on SAM
faint flare
Most people don't really go into Life window optimisation
ripe hound
My feeling is after around 60s opener, my rotation becomes freestyle
Like, I can do a pretty perfect rotation on a dummy now
Tried e9s, brambles line up with first 60s stuff
languid jasper
crap maybe i should just stick with black mage lol
ripe hound
I panic and go free style
I still can’t figure out how to jump from free style Sam to know what I’m doing
eager skiff
well black mage also has a rotation
ripe hound
I think I just need more practice...?
faint flare
You just need to learn how to recover
languid jasper
is black mage rotation more forgiving than dragoon?
eager skiff
nope

Yes
It literally just clicking stuff
eager skiff
can end in spots with 0 mana as black mage and be useless for a couple seconds
ripe hound
You just need to learn how to recover
Yeah, I’m like, ok I used Enpi... does this mean my filler goes from 3 to 4 GCD or to 2 GCD?
And while thinking about this my brain stop and keep spam Enpi
eager skiff
if you screw up
amber portal
It literally just clicking stuff
okay thanks! got worried im in the wrong place
ripe hound
Enpi counts as fillee
Yeah make sense
And then after my 4th Enpi my brain stops even harder
So 3 - 4 GCD equals... FREESTYLE!
amber portal
ohh nice okok
faint flare
As you should be doing always
amber portal
are the starting locations always the same? or it changes?

The difference fetes are in different areas of the map
But the order is the same everytime
