Any advice on picking WHM vs AST for "regular healer" with the EW changes pending? What do you like / enjoy playing? I know super loaded question. I've only ever played SCH
WHM is great imo
loved it
Holy AOE allows you to partcipate in DPS, and a great healing kit
No, only data centre matters
@hearty remnant they are suppoesdly breaking down more barriers to playing cross realm /server "soon". Pick a server where your friends are (if have them already). One school of thought is to go to a super populated data center if you can make a char... but then you have queue times. vs make a char on a new SERVER so you can get all the leveling boosts. But as someone said - data center is what matters.
WHM also has a very straight forward, heal, get rid of debuff, and attack set
@unborn geode yea that's the sense i get looking at it. AST seems more... flashy?
ah thanks, it was more in terms of ive already chosen and wanted to meet people to do trials and stuff with. is there a lfg kinda thing on here?
@hearty remnant in game yes, pretty decenlty robust
what dye color is gae bolg?
ah if youre referring to party finder, ive tried looking on there but noone wants to do extreme primals 😦
People do them unsynced for old ones
ah okay 😦
am i able to get an augmented version of gae bolg to be able to dye it?
there's no dyeable version of the gae bolg
can you somehow farm 2b pieces? because there is so many variants I have not seen a single monk one
The gear is completely random what type drops in the run
also it's Yorha pieces, not 2b pieces :P
I forget how to actually mine, ack
I have 100% but I can't find the actual gather action
just click on it
brings up a different screen?
which screen? for collectables?
yeah
That screen has all the buttons
okay, had to try and raise the collectability, this is a ton different than how it used to be
hello, im stuck at east shroud because i forgot to attune the aetheryte in the fringes(gyr abania), anyone know how to manually get there ?

!faq dolcollect
it's not though
it's just gear, not level 1 glamour pieces
then it's not 2b
there should be an npc by the big wall
2b to be specific set is only drop from the coffer
I think they're specifically one of the ones along the spire
well idk, I want the 2b armor specifically
the 2b armor is only the coffers then
Dev and popo
The gear from copied can be similar but isn't exactly the same
its near the tower thanks
when you transition from the free 30 days after you buy the game to entry sub, do you get the flower icon? because it says i have to wait for the standard sub to end
The flower sub is for people who haven't subbed for 30 days
That free 30 days is the sub
means you've come back after being away for awhile.
If you're just new, you're still a 
ahh i see
It's not haven't subbed for 30 days, btw. It's "haven't logged in on that character for 45 days"
Source: I've been consistently subbed for 6 years, but have two characters on
status.
when is the most MSQ appropiate time to do The Eden Questline?
Any time after you complete 5.0.
Although you won't be able to do the final part of the Eden quests until after you've finished 5.3 because of Plot.
Roger that
do we have an aproximate hour of the day for EW maintenance/downloading? Has it been the same for every previous expansion? Something like at midnight it starts the maintenance and it takes a fixed amount of hours?
The game will be down for 24 hours leading up to the 19th
Expansion and major patch maintenance is always on a well-regulated schedule.
The game will be up on the contractual hour the morning of the 19th, with predownload being available probably an hour or two before that.
But expansion launches are always 24 hour maints
will they increase BLU max level to 80? did it happen in the past?
We don't know
Eventually
i unlocked delubrum reginae but I don't have the law's order step unlocked
how do i unlock it
Blue will always lag behind
Finish it
Gotta do it once
And turn that quest in
Then it opens
wait i thought i unlock that step after castrum latore
Nope
Yeah
Dr unlocked law order
Castrum didn't unlock anything
Other than more story progress
castrum only unlocks the bojzan armors ig
Zadnor will open the final steps
ah i c
Well in terms of relics
how long is DR
Depends on your group
In duty finder: probably 40mins or more cause NO ONE FUCKING USES DAMAGING ESSENCES
Usually about 30 minutes or so.
oh, nice to know, thanks. Do you know at which time did shadowbringers got released?
Speedruns take like 12mins
ShB the servers were up around the usual post-maintenance time (6am EST-ish) as I recall.
You can que via duty finder
They'll announce the official maintenance times sometime next month, though.
great, I hope it's the same for EW, because Cowboy Bebop live action is the same day as EW, so I can watch it before maintenance ends.
You'll have like 4 hour ques or more
So I am now able to become a tradecraft mentor, but... I don't really know what that entails. Can someone enlighten me on that?
Depending how early you get it
You'll probably have enough time to watch two or three movies whil you wait.
Literally fuck all
Mentor means literally fucking nothing
You get a fancy icon next to your name.
There's a reason it's memed
I see
And access to the Novice Network.
undesired access, I'm sure, but access nonetheless
You can choose not to
You don't have to enter the NN if you're a mentor.
oh, perfect.
You just get the ability to join it.
Only 100 mentors can be in it at a time anywau
How many sprouts?
if i set like this it will not reduce my chance to learn BLU spell right?
Like 412
It will.
im confused i need mindblast for lv20
how do i enter solo?
but entering solo will (generally) reduce your chances of something dropping unless it's a guaranteed drop
If you want the spell to be 100% guaranteed, you have to do the instance synced - which means you'll need a group.
This is true for all spells obtained from dungeon, raid, and trial enemies.
I mean, it's not too hard to get a group for spells. Just put something up in PF like "Tam-Tara synced for BLU spell"
People will join.
Mind blast is guaranteed to learn
Is it?
just going to note , mind blast is 100%
Same with glower
since its for the class quest
Cause it's job quest mandatory
Oh, did they change that when they updated BLU learning?
They raised them to guaranteed like a patch or two after blue added
Way before the sync learning
I did it before that, so I didn't know lol
so i dont need full party if i go undersized + sync
correct
thank youu
are dungeons in ff14 like most mmos, where ranged dps has to do a lot less moving out of the red than melee?
All jobs need to move out of shit
k thanks
Nvm, i'm a dumdum, the quest was hiding behind another quest
How long do we have to do the fashion report? How long is it available I mean
judging is from fri until reset on tues
anyone knows why im in first person, unable to move after i login, its only on this pc
Just wait a bit
on my other pc i dont have this problem
jsut wondering if theres a reason
slow drive
Happens when there's a mass load
slow loading times, get an SSD
in this case, your character model is taking a while to load in
thank you 🙏🏻
Because that’s the gathering lvl of the item
there are lv30 nodes with them

Are dungeons still the best way to level an alt healer from 60-70?
Trying to catch one up so I can use it in ShB MSQ
mhm
Kind of why I'm dreading having to level a new dps
I don't have any healer friends to queue with and I'm not looking forward to any of the alt activity grinds either
look at the secondary tool
Aye
question about wondrous tails, is the second chance cap on how many points you can obtain for one journal, or how many points you can hold onto ?
Still not eager to do any of those, I think 
as in, if i use 9 points, can I still get more afterwards?
You can only hold 9 points
what is this even?
You can gain them even without having the journal
Controller hotbar
oh cool! thank you!
better use them a lot then
do bonus mgp items work on fashion report
yes
nice
I know it's not directly ff14, but can someone answer me an advanced combat tracker question?
If you join a free company who's base is in Shirogane yet to be played up to in the story can you yet travel there or do you have to wait to unlock it later? I'm going into HW but seemed like that would deter newer players if not? The other is in the Mist's where I tend to like anyway, just curious.
you can teleport to your fc house, provided the fc has an aetheryte
just won't be able to leave into kugane
you'd have to teleport out
can confirm, did that as well
Ok, couldn't really travel there to check it out before hand so wasn't sure. Thanks!
Awesome, thanks!
Hello, I found this macro online for coffee biscuits and it works really well. But I wanted to add 2 more skills in the end. Simply adding /ac "Skill name" does not seem to work the process just stops. It is also 12/15 including the 2 I added. I dont seem to know what's wrong.
Sorry a question
how to recruit member for adventure squadron?
does it matter what company i join?
No
No. All are bad tbh
what do they even do i just want my chocobo 😩
Not much
Alright thanks
One is corrupt (sorta), one is pirate haven, and the other racist?
Lol
It's just some thing you need for the story
Do you have the required CP for the actions?
You can buy some stuff from there, turn gear in for their currency and stuff
I honestly forget about them 90% of the time
Which Grand Company should I choose?
The only differences between the three Grand Companies are the looks of the equipment and where they're located. The story doesn't change in regards to the Grand Company you choose beside the quest that comes after 'The Company You Keep'. Here is a link leading to sample sets from each of the Grand Companies:
Grand Company Gear (click the JP flag at the top right to change to english)
How do I get Grand Company Seals?
You can get more seals mainly by completing your Grand Company Hunting Log (Go to the Hunting Log and click on the GC icon), completing FATEs, and turning in crafted/gathered items to the Personnel Officer if you have crafting or gathering classes unlocked. You can use these seals to promote yourself to higher ranks from the Personnel Officer. Promotions also require completion of your Grand Company Hunting Log and completing specific quests found at your Grand Company base.
Once you are Sergeant 2nd Class you can turn in Pink/Green/Blue-rarity gear in exchange for more seals.
Chocobo though that's for Free Company right not Grand that you are discribing?
Yes, I do. I have 150+ left after the last action
No
Oh nm, the GC chocobo I was thinking the next thing I need for the chocobo.
To raise them
@regal pawn I'm guessing i'm just typing something wrong.
Free Company is guilds/clans
Grand Company is just which of the 3 main countries you're alligned with
Have to have housing to raise Chocobo's that's what I had in my head lol
use tab when you type skill name
most likely
Looking at the housing district now so just mispoke haha.
Sorry, what do you mean by use tab?
type partial name of the skill then tab, choose the right name and done, move on to wait part
ohh okay I will try that thank you!
You don't need thr quotations if using auto translate
btw do I have to use <wait.x> after every action?
Yes
Cause of the animation
It locks you out of doing other skills
Buffs need 2 seconds, other actions are 3 seconds
ohhh okok i think that seems to be the issue
Or just do 3s for all to try and reduce the chance lag fucks you
yep 3s is safest
I have a friend just starting FF14 tonight. I have a feeling that Goblin will be full when they attempt to create their PC. If they roll on another Crystal server what are the criteria before they can transfer?
I know, but I want them in the FC.
Mmm... I don't think that's true.
forgive me if i'm wrong, but when a server's too full to let you create a PC, it's referring to people playing right now, no ?
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
when i made my character on moogle i had the same issue but i just had to wait
couldn't you just have them wait a bit ?
potentially, yeah. i'm just trying to figure out if transfer is even an option.
it doesn't look like it is though.
all Crystal servers are Preferred status.
90 days to transfer if created on a preferred server
Does preferred gives road to 70 buff?
Yes
But yes you are locked to 90 days if making on a preferred server from transferring
lol, i wonder if that applies if the server you're transferring to is also preferred
wouldn't make any sense
It does, cause transferring removes the buff
And transferring to preferred won't give it to you
yeah, i wouldn't trust square to set these systems up competently
that's what i suspected
So I just resubbed for 90 days after the 90 days is complete will the game charge me again?
For another 90 days or do I have to go in and pay again manually
I think it is which I dont want it to be
Otherwise you do manually
Just press Cancel subscription button on mogstation
It will turn off the Recurring
And I will still have the 90 days?
Yes
Ok thanks
Where, WHERE do i get the "Augmented Shire Conservator's..." gear?
every direction the wiki points me to, nothing
Idyllshire at Hismesa and bertana
Or ishgard sundry splendors after finishing heavensward
alright so in idyllshire ur gonna open the map
Talk to Hismena for armour
and look for a blue bag icon
Bertana has weapons
It's not a blue bag
I'm idyllshire
That's for sundry splendors
It's the line of 3 npcs
Not sure if this goes here or in #technology-discussion since its not a problem, just a concern
Is there anyone here in the windows 11 beta, and have there been any issues with running FF14 in DX11?
Definitely a tech related discussion
Its fine to head there @kindred zinc
Not too many people have migrated yet to 11 I would expect
ok, Ill delete and move it there

hello
there is a french channel on this server ? im looking for fr community
because im new and lost xD
ty
I accidentally hid the chat, how do I get it back?
Press enter
you can hide the chat ?
neat, thank you
this'll come in handy for the times i accidentally bring up the chat in a cutscene
aka all the time
Does anyone know the cooldown for data center transfers?
What is the shuk macro for ninja? And its uses (I think its shuk, or shun idk...the teleport thing)
i've never seen one but i'd assume you can make a mouseover macro to make moving to mouseover targets easier, similar to blm's aetherial manipulation
something like this but with shukuchi
Hey all, I've been playing FFXIV for a just over a month now, as a DPS. I wanted to level up either a Healer or Tank for Endwalker, for a change of pace. I'm leaning towards being a Healer, and wondering which one seems to be a good go-to for high-end PvE Content? Any advice?
All
all jobs are pretty much perfectly balanced in pve
I'm trying to craft smoked chicken and its the hardest thing ever. Ijust cant get my stats high enough. Any idea what I might be missing after getting BiS gear?
scholar might be a bit of a meme on 6.0 release but that's just feelcrafting from the info we have, but even if it is its gonna get buffed a patch later
melds, food, syrups/pots
okay so beat DR
how do i access Law's order armor sets
Are melds materia? what syrup/pots should I get?
yeah materia, and whatever boosts your stats enough to meet the requirements, see pins in #doh-dol-lounge
according to first google result
hey does anyone know the pyros and hydatos eureka mount names?
gold coins...
nvm googled
how do u get gold coins beside the weekly?
Trade 100 silvers for 1 gold
At the gangos supplier
Can also rarely drop from any chest in Delubrum
damn this is gonna take a while 
With the number of times you run it for the relic, you'll get it
i get 3 loathsome memories per DR run?
Hello guys! I got a Blade of Early Antiquity but I don't know where, or how, to exchange them. I already went to Yhal Yal and Ghul Gul but they only have pieces of gear, not weapons
You get blades from the final fight at each tier
Scroll all the way to the bottom, you trade it for the tomestone
Which is needed for the weapons
where are you rn? 
The main difference between the 530 tome weapon and 535 raid weapon is that the tome weapon can be required by doing only normal raids right?
yep
So like, in the early weeks, you can grab the 530 tome weapon for a tiny bit more advantage
no
When progging the last fight
only the 520 one
Ah
530 requires doing savage
augment item is only available from savage
I see, from 11?
So like if you can finish 11 easily, but stuck on 12, you can buy the 530 tome weapon?
Yes
I see
I always raid late in the patch
So I never figured out what the 530 tome weapon was for
Some tanks/healers may want to for extra dps as people tend to give raid weapons to dps first
I see
i figured it out
conga rat
i left the cutscene due to a raid queue which took me somewhere else
it was supposed to take me to The First

Hey are the breach coins unlimited now you can run as many as you like?
Yes
https://youtu.be/2TZiVFt_mNk 1:04 ost? please i need this i feel like shit and this music will help rn

What is best weapon to get without raiding or doing relic, is it diamond?
Sorry lol
yeah it's diamond, mostly
OK cool
believe its the garden's gates.
it is, thank u
Looks like I am farming Diamond then and breach
apparently there was a collab with the japanese show garo? are those things no longer obtainable?
correct, they are no longer obtainable
Almost wish I didn't get that dragon on my fourth run ever....
yeah, im crying every day they are some of the cooles mounts in the game

if you want the extreme trial horses of arr, you can do them solo unsynced?
yes
ive got a question for raiders
im currently in a position in my static where im in fill dps, i.e. we have our caster/melee/physranged and i can be something to fill
my static is min ilvl and synched. if we were to run current content, would we have a lot of trouble with dps checks and shit if i went physranged as well?
I feel like it’s likely
Doing Eden savage stuff with min ilv no echo should mean DPS is like, really tight
Pretty sure current Savage is always the content where the DPS check is the tightest
feel like it would depend on how well you all do tbh
if it's a different phys ranged I feel like it shouldn't be an issue too much
Which glamour looks the most like FF IV's Kain?
Pick and choose

iirc in the LL they said they were changing a lot of stuff to 120s increments, did they say if brotherhood is getting scaled up or down (or at all)?
do i get an extra quest if i complete all SHB beast tribes to bloodsworne ?
no
think they said they couldn't come up with a reasonable quest that would "join" the ShB beasttribes so highest you can go is each tribe's rank-up quests
What should I do with my Yellow Crafter Scrips now that I'm omnicraft-80? I have all master recipes...
isnt there materia/materials/consumables that you can sell
hmm, never thought to indirectly convert scrips to gil lol. Thanks! I'll give that go.
Q: how does LB calculate DMG? is it flat/same for everyone, based on class? is it based on My gear and level?
I main Monk and tend to be the one who does it
So i'm trying to get 100 in the fashion report for this week and its my first time participating, I know I need replica dreadwyrm gauntlets but I cant craft them, I'm high enough level on all crafters to where I should be able to but the recipe doesnt appear in my crafting menu. Do they also drop from coils or is it crafting only?
if it is crafting only then does anyone know what im missing?
You need the master book for it
ah, where might I get one of those? havent heard about master books yet 😮
Master book 1 and 2 are in mor Dhona, you need to make an item for iy
Lv60+ master books are for scrips
ahhh gotcha, now that I know what im looking for just did a simple google search and got a guide on what to do from there! thanks a lot ^.^
Heyo, does someone know roughly how long It takes to acquire all logograms in eureka? (Pyros and hydatos). My aim is to be able to buy the shiny elemental armor
from what ive heard/seen it takes a lot of grinding...or you can buy them off the marketboard if you have gil you dont plan on spending
here's a handy tool
FFXIV Eureka NM pop time tracker
Should be average weapon ilv of party
Ah, thank you ^^
Thanks! I see.
is it possible to make it so that once the person your targeting dies, you lock onto the closest enemy?
No
how would i go about finding dr savage parties and whatnot? i wanna learn it
I'm a lvl 30 lancer and finished all the lancer quests but can't find the quest to become a dragoon is there anything else I need to do?
Yea stuff like that is locked behind the main quest
Everything's locked behind main quest
No prob
Does holmgang not proc when you use it but the target dies?
holmgang procs on use
well
activates
the fact it tethers to an enemy is honestly pointless, it can be used untargeted as well
I used Holmgang and it didnt activate, but the cooldown started
were you literally about to die
anyone know what pants these are?
and died as a result
Yes, but between me pressing the button, and me dying there was at least a second
seriously, fuck this game. I never had this problem with any other tankè
Only warrior
then you got lucky
so if you use itt and the enemy dies right after
all immunities have the same lull in activation
or just tick moments lol
if i leave a frontline roulette, do i lose the daily bonus?
pretty sure
all roulettes give their daily rewards on completion
you shouldn't lose the bonus
unless you mean something other than i think
Does anyone know if there's a way to see Who marked you with what marker? ive turned on all chats/battle/announcements and when i mark myself or someone else, i don't see a message, yet someone linked in chat "xxx has been marked with attack 1"
Why do so many tanks make PF parties for 50-60-70 duty roulette? Whats the goal there?

Maybe they dont want to deal with bad healers
hm, I see.
if i've payed for marrying, the one with the chocobo mount, and i divorce but i decide to marry again
do need to pay again?

it's adverts for paid carries
It's technically breaking the PF rules iirc 
You pay for the wedding, so if you mary again you can do the free one, or do another paid one, but u wont get another mount.
Should I work on Eureka weapon while leveling eLvl?
Why not? 🙂 it's a nice weapon ^^
haven't found the reason to do it
"Unable to use the ravager's armor coffer. You cannot carry more than one unique item of the same type." why...
cause a relic is a waste of slot if unused, lol
is the maurader berserk skill bug? when ever i put in on the hotbar, it changes icon to inner release
Glamour > all
Fable belt of Fending
Hiya everyone. Quick question for those who play on PC and PS. I have always played on PC (Not the Steam version), and wanted to play on PS here and there if I'm on the couch. Since I already own all of the expansions on PC, would it be enough to simply buy the basic version of the game on PS and sign in with my existing account? Would that still allow me to access SB (and EW, once it releases) without having to re-purchase all of the expansions?
Or do I have to buy everything all over again on PS?
You'd need to buy the expansions on PS as well
Ah okii. But what if i already have the mount, but the next marriage im doing the free one but my partner payed for the mount. Do they still get their mount?
is there a way to make a macro say something random rather than the same thing? (es. rez macros)
Damn... that's sad. Guess I won't bother then. Thanks!
which disciple of land/hand jobs are most profitable right now?
all of them, you dont level just one in most cases
well, fisher sucks
they all require stuff from other classes
Yeah, but that would still require buying EW all over again.
true, up to you
Not worth just to play on the couch when it's better on the PC anyway.
I'm leveling miner and botanist right now
plug your controller to your PC and play on the couch 😂
!trait berserk mastery
do you guys know where there is any waterfalls
THAT would require dragging the PC downstairs 😛
But I'm planning on building a living room PC some time soon, so that won't be an issue soon 🙂
maybe east shroud or somewhere like that
north shroud
there
Someone confirmed the options ^^
low beats high
if 1 purchases a premium, other has to as well
or 1 person canb uy 2 and trade the second
@past rock
Ah thanks for that, never really spoken to anyone who wanted paid for 1 and free for the other, the options were making me think it would be tricky ❤️
free + $20 = the free plan rewards
eh its just flat out not doable
no? you literally need the same type lol
thanks
Hi, does anyone know where to get orange juice for Swyrgeim for the "Color Your World" quest?
I tried looking at guides but am still stuck.
Please help.
ye just saw that
that being said that applies if they want the premium rewards
which storm blood beast tribe gives quests to level (like the pixies in sb) ?
the fish people in the ruby sea....cant remember the name
are they also the only ones?
kojin and ananta are both combat iirc
o right kojin was the name
thats normal
ty 🙂
if ur level 70 you cant use berserk
Turtle boys in Ruby Sea and snake ladies in uhhh, the fringes? Can't remember, all the Gyr Abania zones bleed together in my head
do stormblood and sb beast tribes share allowences?
Yes
you have 12 available, make em count
You can only do 12 beast tribe dailies per day regardless of which ones you do
does it go above 12 if i dont do it one day?
No
okay ty 🙂
It just resets back to 12
So my friends are starting on free trial, I heard it lasts til lvl 60 and their not planning to get to shadowbringer before expansion so would they be able to preorder endwalker and wait til expansion then have access to everything?
you can persist them if that matters
if you haven't finished a past one, they don't let you get any new ones
so get those done
so if you accept 6 tribe quests for example and then complete them the day after, it will not consume the daily cap of that day
Yes, if they buy Endwalker they will get Stormblood and Shadowbringers when EW releases
Will they get exp ring while still on free trial though?
No
Ah
Their on PS4/5 does that change anything?
can we be in a free company with players from another server?
aww
most you can do is have a cross world linkshell really
Still can't use it without the Base gamr
You can't use dlc for a game you don't own
Cross world linkshell is a cross server chat channel
ah I see
You only get free trial on one platform
Rip so better off waiting til endwalkers than getting endwalkers?
You can't buy dlc for a game you don't own
Ah I see
If you still want the earring you buy the Base game and endwalker the day before
You need the base game even if you're only buying endwalker
So it's whatever works best for them
anyone know how to level alts from 10-15? ive been stuck here on some jobs
so when we get cross world travel, will we still only be able to sell on our server's mb or can we sell anywhere?
I'll let them know this info, thanks guys
FATEs in Central Shroud, Central Thanalan, Middle La Noscea
hunting logs
We already have it and yes
Wait Kat your in here 👀
Only selling on your home world
thank you
@warm snowI mean like between aether and light for example
Wtf curxis
Smol world
That's data center travel not world travel
sry I didn't know right term
And data center travel will be region locked
Hi all
So light to chaos
Or aether to crystal
And since world visit still only let's you sell on your home world
btw does anyone here know the bunny fate gold chest probability? for eureka
That's probably not selling
about 1 in 10
Drop rng is calculated server sjde
server side?
(meaning there is no way to know)
No way of knowing short of hacking the servers
I see, but roughly like 10% chance?
from all the data that has been collected, about so yeah
I'm not telling you to hack the servers
between 4% and 9%
And that's still anecdotal and imperfect
fair enough as long as it's like 5% ish that's ok
since you still make gil each chest
It could 0.0001% and we'd have no way of knowing
well.. aside from the data collected over the years of people obtaining gold chests
not perfect but still a reasonable number
i cant progress Main Quest, it tells me i need to progress further in the "Crystal Tower Series" Questline. However, when i look it up, i cant find the NPC for it. anyone know why that is?
Check your journal for completed quests
oh
Any opinion on which Eureka weapon should I do 🤦♂️
ah okay, now i found it, thx
the one you like the most
eh
No
or just ended up as glamour at the end?
the final final forms are good in BA
but you can still clear BA without it
assuming you decked out in gear
cause I'm playing as WAR in Eureka, so I thought I would just work on the WAR one maybe?
the weapon is just extra
if you really like BA enough you should get the weapon
And it's the lowest priority
eventually that is
yeah apparently I need to reach the pyros part to unlock the elemental armor?
ic ic
if you arent even at pyros yet then you have a long way to go before BA
I just entered Pyros just now
and I see almost everyone are working on their weapon, lol
and I wonder why, cause I'm here to just unlock more stuff
yeah you might as well just pick a weapon
if you're gunna do the eureka content
pick the job you like the most in there
So apparently my friends can't make characters in my world currently since it looks like their not letting people make characters there. Anyone know how temp that restriction is?
Hey, I'm talking with a friend about leveling and I wondered if anyone had an estimate on how long it would take to level a secondary job? (Having cleared MSQ with the first job)
Crystal coeurl
Never mind. Found it in Ul'dah
crystal worlds arent locked just always at cap
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
Got it I'll let them know thanks all
i read somewhere that your characters don't need to be geared for bozja, is that true?
yeah
Yes
so you can go in with whatever and it'll be fine?
not nekkid
yeah sorry, i mean with any gear
no point gearing my alt classes at 71 if i can just power lvl to 80 in bozja right
like getting scaeven or whatever
yeah, just wear your lv 69 gear if you level through dungeon
If you're staying in Bozja/Zadnor then probably not
Unless you wind up getting into a dungeon above 70
like I wear my shire cause i stopped upgrading once I unlocked all roulette and leveling solely through roulette
yeah same, most of my classes are 71 but wearing lvl 60 gear
was gonna buy 70 gear but looks like i can skip that
thank u all
yeah, I used all poetics to get my fresh 80 an anima weapon 😂
that's a good idea haha

is it normal do feel how drk is quite boring ?
What level are you?
80
like bellow 70 drk is so bad
and 70+ is spam TBN
like i get what it tries to be
but its just not engaging
Personal preference varies, I suppose
I heard cross data center got pushed back? is that correct
Yeah, every class will feel different to different people. You could try Gunbreaker? There's a bit more going on there imo
Yee
I feel DRK is more engaging because me personally I'm trying to optimize my MP generation and usage for unga bunga flood of darkness spam
you can play DRK okay pretty easily but if you want to play DRK well you're saving that MP
i am currently doing gnb to 80 atm
and it quite a blast to do
It is very much so in the realm of personal opinion. Some players might find DNC multiple proc an absolute headache, while others might find DNC proc combo very refreshing compared existing Jobs
Always two side of the same coin
That's the beauty of FFXIV, there's something for almost everyone
Applies to all Jobs
the mp management on drk isnt even hard
unless you go uga buga on the ogcd
then its a none issue
yeah I feel like DRK is the most active
Yeah. I enjoy playing Bard high-end because I'm constantly making snap decisions and I have nearly constant weaving to manage, but I know a few people find it hectic and frustrating.
cause of those resource management
like even with WAR right now I'm having a problem zzzz
Respectfully speaking, if you have problems like "is there a way to simplify Salted Earth" then we can help. otherwise, "DRK is no fun for me" is more of a #general-discussion thing than a question we can answer
Unless you want to ask "how was DRK in Heavensward or Stormblood"
We can answer that too
(it is worse depending on who you asked)
Yes. Pushed to 6.0x
oooh no im not trying to make a discussion
just asking how you all make it enjoyful
Fair enough
because i found pld to be fun
so as gnb
war as a concept makes me snore
Personally speaking, I just like big sword and dark animations
Can the Rathalos Horn drop from the raid?
Yes
I like that flood and edge upkeep your buff, and does damage
I like that TBN refund you a free flood/edge when you use TBN correctly
I like all the tanks tbh
i mean thats fair with a bit of raid knowledge TBN just breaks encounters
I always have a problem with gauge management
thought: what happens if someone ferries you across to the other side of the drav hinterlands before the rubble blocking the way in idyllshire is cleared
even as NIN, I keep overcapping my Ninki for some reason
I will note that DRK and WAR has the same "you can use gauge spender for free for 10s" ability, so there's that
I would continue weighing in, but I agree that "what makes X fun to you to play" is more of a #general-discussion topic and not a #questions-and-help topic vis-a-vis there's no specific help that can be given.
Yup
fair 👍
=)
Good topic to be honest
I would like to see people explaining why they like or dislike Jobs
what is the best way through 70-75?
same
Assuming you are leveling an alt jobs
roulettes/dungeons added with bozjan/zadnor
yes
Tank/healer: always roulette/dungeons, Bozjan is fine too if you want to mix it up
DPS, what vielen said
*once you hit 71
ye im at 70 rn
Bozja/Zadnor require 71 iirc
Mr Happy happened to have a new video to teach players how to get from 70 to 71
👍
is there a website or somthing to find room designers and house decorators
Is the data center transfer cooldown 90 days?
how long is "several minutes" i failed to spell my password correctly 5 times
LET ME IN
what can I use tomestone of allegory for
490 gear, upgrading exarchic to 520 and mats to sell on market
Is there a way to upgrade graphics
@faint flare what are goods mats to sell
Things listed spirit ethers and up
@faint flare u mean spirit extract?
Yes
outside of like, the graphics settings?
reshade and GShade by extension are popularly supported for this game
this helps too
in system config

From memory fragments. They are random drops from enemy kills. Fragments are then taken to an NPC that decodes them into buffs.
Appraise lost fragments
DR fragments are only for DR
you'll need to grind Bozja or zadnor for open field fragments
Bojza drops the majority
moreso Bozja since zadnor only really drops the high level stuff
i guess ill grind zadnor
Already did it
arent these better than bozja ones tho?
That's ONLY for delubrum
Like for the clothes
besides texture-enhancing mods (which i'm sure probably exist)? no.
oooo i see
All bojzan essences drop in bojza
the gear looks better after level 70
As shown on the chart
Ive been on trying to buy the game and it put me on a waiting list. Is it normal to wait 4+ days or is the supply that low
Are you talking about a physical edition?
Digital
I thought they'd resolved the issues with the digital keys.
Are you sure you're trying to buy the right game?
Pretty sure, it just asked what platform i play on and said it put me on a waiting list
It said ffxiv complete edition
What store?
What did you select
Did you select PC DOWNLOAD
if you're in NA you could also try Humble Bundle
Or Green Man Gaming
Simple silly question, is there any way I can pick up all the bozja relic quests even though I only have one weapon and it's on the last step? I'm leveling a bunch of stuff in bozja, and I wanna get as many of the memories as I can, but I don't have any other jobs I can pick up a weapon on right now
you'll need at least one weapon at the step(s)
is the shatotto fight actually hard or am i just fucking stupid, i'm nailing my rotations flawlessly at lvl 62 but im still getting my ass ate
You'd have to pick them up sequentially and have each step active with a different weapon.
are you following the prompts the NPCs are saying and is your item level near or at 270
I don't remember it being that hard.
dang, oh well. Ty all!
Yeah make sure you’re geared up
That's PC Physical
Yeah, that's the physical edition
You want PC DOWNLOAD
nah i'm at ilvl 220 and it's the adds that fuck me up, i always do fine until they show up
my dude you're undergeared
50 item levels is a huge deal
oh i feel like a fool lmao
Just replacing your weapon will make a massive difference.
thanks lmao
idek what shire gear is
HW poetics gear
hmm alright lemme check it out
The heavensward final tomestone gear set
i270
it's a lvl 60 encounter, i figured i'd be fine lol oops
Not without level 60 gear you won't
You’ll want philosopher for a magic dps
and i220 isn't level 60 gear. it's like, level 55 gear, at best.
hey everybody, i got a quick question, hope its a simple one but it has to do with ordering endwalker through steam
i'm wearing the goetia set and it's lvl 60 but ilvl 210
Involving Steam immediately means it won't be a simple question lol
whats the best way to get crystal sand? im doing the leve quest farming route, but havent recieved a single coffer from 8 attempts
Item lvl is what matters in the end
Yeah, it's trash. That's like... the very lowest ilevel you can have for 60 gear?
i trade moonstones for mine
i had no idea lol i'm a tank main tryint to branch out ffs
The final job quest is always scaled for at least mid-tier gear.
takes too long
Yellow scrips into blue tokens is what I did
well, i preordered, went to the mogstation, punched in my preorder key which worked fine. but it wont let me redeem the actual endwalker key but there is a support article that mentions you cant redeem that key till the 23rd and i just wanted to double check that i would have to wait till then to redeem it
shorter than anything else i can do lol i can't get scrips
Yes
Yes, that's correct.
ahh ok, thank you then everybody!
You shouldn't have even have thr standard code now
30ish min
But hey steam is dumb
What's the setting to have less animations in alliance raids ? I can't see shit
@faint flare well one is called the preorder code and one is the bonus content code, so maybe its just for the extra deluxe edition content?
Uhh, I knew the answer to that recently. Character Settings > Display, I think
Then it's at the bottom of one of the tabs.
Character settings has all the useful anti-clutter stuff
found it thanks
How do you guys get into doing high end content. Is everyone just forming groups in the party finder or is there a better way to find solid groups to do high end content with? Is there free companies that i should try to join in order to start doing the harder bosses ?
Party finder
/Levelsync
No
Is there a way to set waymarkers down in savage raids e9s - e12s without needing 8 ppl?
anyone know why there is no 60 fps option ?
Also it seems liike I can't play at full hd on windowed mode
I tried 72 fps option and my fps were locked to 10
🤔
Is there any system for the TT tournaments to get matched with a real person? Cant find how it works.
Mostly because it’s weird
As in, you can only select half your monitor refresh rate
I personally just do unlocked FPS
I don’t really care about consistency in frame rate
As long as there is a new frame to see every 12 ms or so I’m happy
Or 10ms
Just trying to fix an issue I'm having about ffxiv freezing my firefox/youtube videos or making them downgrading from hd to 480p, some said lock fps to 60 but not working also tried disabling windows game mode but still nothing
Yeah that sounds weird
I remember you mentioning it
Some said ram but my ram is at 50%
I have a ryzen 3600 so cpu shouldnt be an issue I guess 🤔
Probably
cpu usage is like 20-25%
I can play high res video and do dungeons together fine
My only issue is when video is playing in 2nd monitor, primary monitor can’t do 144 FPS
For some reason it seems like my GPU have trouble dealing with 144 + 60 FPS
Maybe if I grab a 144 FPS 2nd monitor it will fix it?
That I dunno
I only have 1 screen and still having those video issues
when playing as background
it looks like ffxiv is doing something to slow down background stuff
how do you get umbrite?
75 poetics, special arms section

from the seller in mor dhona?
Idyllshire
Does fps matter 
If you care about FPS
I don't really mind about FPS, but recently my XIV suddenly stutter and ended up quitting itself
never happened before
First, there's a difference between your CPU and your GPU. If your GPU can't handle the rendering demand then it doesn't matter how good your CPU is. Beyond that, I'd go down to #technology-discussion since the people there are more likely to have better answers, and will ask you for actual relevant details and know how to interpret them.
Uldah is full of people so...
I can't connect back and the square enix website is also fucked for me, my friends are all still fine tho on the same server/data center. Any ideas?
!faq xivlauncher
you are using any addon?
@spark pollen what are you computer specs
I only need the CPU and GPU to tell you the approximate performance
nope
it sounds like you're single core bound
cpu is ryzen 5 3600 and gpu is rx 580
yeah something fucky is going on in the background then
Run FFXIV BY ITSELF or the benchmark
Close everything in the background
If it still stutters, it might be disk related as well
or RAM
how do I check if it's my disk related? 🤔
like when the FFXIV suddenly stutter and quit itself
ah
out of the gold bunny fate chests how rare are the mounts around?
