how do I do that
Close everything and then run the Endwalker benchmark and watch for stutters
You can have task manager open or something if you'd like
If there's a spike when not in between scenes
You might have a hardware issue
I have no idea what's going on.
okay downloading the endwalker benchmark
still weird tho, cause even playing games like dbd, black desert, rainbow six never had this issue
ty for the suggestion anyway, this launcher seems much better for when it's working again
FFXIV is an exception because fundamentally this game is still a PS3 game
How can you check 
It's just a matter of fact, honestly. GPU is essentially meaningless in high load areas and FFXIV is just a single core bound game. That still applies even on PS4 which is why it took for the PS4 pro for FFXIV to even get near 60 FPS
*On console
I need help. Why is the lightning 100% fine on NPCs faces during certain cutscenes, while it's an absolute mess on my characters face?
I actually have 8 cores 
Depends on your settings?
what's the command for the BLM rotation list thing
!faq blmleveling
sweet
Now are u single core bound 
I play on PS5, what would you recon be a good number for Character Lightning? I've tried 30 because some people recommended it online
But it's not working out too well
Can you do Zonureskin maps with 1-4 ppl?
no
I've seen a few images of dps counters (or what I think is that) from people is that an in game option I haven't seen yet or are those like external add-ons? I'd like to see if I'm doing alright when I play I don't really know
So need the 8 people?
it's a 3rd party plugin
!faq act
Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.
Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.
Oooh Ic, tyty
I have no real judge on if I'm doing well or not so I have no idea if I should be trying to improve on that level really
if you're in duty finder content
it's designed to be done by the lowest common denominator
the game is kind of dreadful for forcing you to improve at any point in the msq
Generally my only measure is "the entire team isn't dead"
besides that, press damage buttons
What level do you need to use master recipes VII ?
I kinda wish there is an ability you can use in normal content.
Like, a duty action any one can use. It costs 1 bar of LB, and allow you to raise one person.
This way we can have even harder content in MSQ, and when a bad tank or healer dies it’s not that dreadful
Like, only available in Normal Trails
that's called Phoenix Down, and is in fact an item
it's also called "play a red mage or summoner"
phoenix down can only used outside of battle though
Also called be a healer
you can't do anything about that then if you're on console
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Regarding eternal bonding: Can we not have me and my partner carry the bouquet for the wedding?
"At this time, you and your partner have conflicting preferences for the following: Bouquet."

You don’t throw 2 bouquets at a wedding silly
B--but ;-;
Okay thanks for confirming!
Totally not a ploy to just force others to get wed
Just started and was wondering if servers are important? I know Data Centers are but not sure about server

only for marriage and free companies
I…see. Alright then
how do I best gear an alt for raiding? just farm current tier for coffers?
If I buy the complete edition on PS5, and then also the complete edition for PC from the SE shop, does that give me two months of service?
trying to install the game, just got it off steam, keep getting error, wont install launcher
unable to launch ffxiv updater [11035]
What crafting job should i level up first if i am a beginner at the whole crafting thing?
what do you call those shiny weapons people are using? im maining a GNB atm and want one
im lv70 also and currently doing post-HW MSQ
photo?
GNB can select shinryu
There are also a fuckton of other ones
idk. i just want a shiny. hahaha
There's multiple different shiny
do i have to get to shadowbringers MSQ to get one?
GNB and DAN dont have that many shiny to play
Crafted primal, relics, ultimate weapons
its so confusing. is there a list of shinies i can check out so i can pick?
or atleast work towards while im doing MSQ
yeah a lot
glamour can be pretty damaging to your wallet
if you want to have everything
whats the level required to desynth items
especially if you want shiny this, shiny that
I have a question. If I sub using crysta and I wanna extend the sub, do I wait for the game time to run out before I buy more?
you can buy it immediately whether the time have passed out or not
i dont even know the shinies. what are the names of the shiny weapons for GNB?
shinryu's ephemeral gunblade
Noob question; I'm looking to farm the extreme primal ARR horsies but since I'm playing on a free trial account I can't use the party finder. What would be the best way to grind these? Duty finder? Or should I find a static group willing to do the same?
I think you can use the PF?
I'll just wait till you reach 80 and solo these
^
man, i cant download the game on steam, keep getting error, even when i try to download it using the ffxiv setup, it says choose language and then does nothing
<@&100464652139368448> is it okay for me to have this pfp in this server? it feels like it will spoil others gameplay I change it if not 🙂
Yes
Yes
But please just DM us next time unless it's an emergency
What's the best way to gear up to go into eden ? I'm ilvl 422 with the left side 80 relic, was thinking crafting but it's gonna be a bit before my crafting is at level
okay tyvm! noted
can anyone help me get this game installed i dont know what to do
Estinien's face is in all merch stuffs
Hey guys do we have a date for next live letter where they will go over DoH/DoL stuff?
its just ive been chatting on beginner lounge and majority of them are in ARR
people will just think it's your playable character
yeah beginner lounge and ffxiv discussion often has spoilers
I avoided it when I started the game
I'm currently looking up the upcoming duty of [4.1 spoilers] ||"Return of the Bull"|| and while I understand boss mechs, I'm very doubtful of my ability to deflect the tethered orbs. Is it recommended to go for a mobile job? Any tips for that mechanic?
Anyone know what rank I have to be to unlock the chocobo challenge races?
it's not that hard, you can just run around and click the duty action since it hits in an area around you
pro gamer tip is to aim for where the orbs cross so you can get multiple at once
I did it as a tank originally
does 4k ui affect fps
what are stuff I can buy through allegory and sell in the market board?
@swift pasture Exarchic mats, but those don’t sell for much; maybe 1.5k each
If you can craft the mats into ingots, they can sell for ~10k
are there anything else?
Other than mats, not that I know of. On my server, Solstice Ingots sell well, but prices fluctuate between 10k and 18k
if im standing direct;y inside off a boss what positional am i hitting

anyone know why my daily beast quests won't refresh? It's been saying my daily limit is 3 for a while
you have a beast tribe quest active from a previous day
either abandon it or complete it
Should I pentameld my aesthete gear with Gathering materia over Perception materia in preparation for Endwalker because HQ gathering mats are going away? Or will it matter
¯_(ツ)_/¯
we don't know enough yet
😮🍡
I just got access to the White Wolf Gate but... what is it?
the east exit of gridania, near the conj guild
oh.. its literally just a gate? lol
So a completely unused door
Is there a way to run the UI and game at separate resolutions on PC? I love the look of the 4K UI, but my PC is only strong enough to run it smoothly on 1080p. I know on PS5 there's separate options for game resolution versus UI resolution, but I didn't see anything like that in the PC settings.
no
PS5 is the same, it's just utilizing the ps4 pro's checkerboard rendering technique
Unfortunately, it's 'custom' for playstation so it's not something they can backport to PC as far as I know
wompwomp thanks for the clarification though
How do i get the download to not crash?
A question: Historically, how long usually after a new expansion do the level boost items get updated?
should be updated with early access iirc, if not then with official release
Gotcha. Ty.
Is this the place to ask for help with crafting?
Am I allowed to ask for someone to help me craft specific things or is that a nono
i accidently
skipped some dialogue
is there a way for me to see it again?
it was while accepting a quest
it doesnt let me abandon
there's a chat tab called "event"
check there first
assuming you haven't changed all of the tabs ofc
im trying to transfer a character from one world to another but it seems that, i can go to the certain world i want that being jenova
it simply doesnt give me the option
!status jenova
It's congested
congested servers cannot be transfered to
thats so sad
You can't transfer to congested servers
Does any xp boost affect your chocobo when racing at gold saucer?
is it too populated basically?
and this upcoming patch wont be changing that either
but understood
we wont see an unlock until post EW launch
They do it based on population
because everyone migrating from WOW went to Aether because it's seen as the raiding DC
I don't have any evidence other than the congested lockout but that's the most likely explanation
not it is a raiding DC
its seen as one
you can raid on any
because before world visit, gilgamesh was the premiere endgame hub
just double checking, when do mobs get stun immunity from holy? is it after 6 times?
i was told it was where all the raiding guilds were
approx 10 seconds of stun total
you don't need a guild to raid
about 5ish?
ik
yeah more or less
that's a very common misconception.
ah
most don't raid in fcs anyways.
you can raid on any dc fine.
don't listen to generalizations about dcs
because raids are limited to 8 people anyways and because of how the lockouts work
you don't really try to raid with the whole FC lmao
can I still sell my items in the marketboard if my retainer is doing a venture?
Hi I have a question. If for example I had a Pugilist and I wanted to switch to White mage or scholar at 30 when it becomes available to heal, can I do that or do I need to be an arcanist first? I know you can do all jobs on the same character in this game but I want to know if its leve llocked
or does my retainer needs to not be doing anything so I can sell in the marketboard?
Yes
Ok but can't you be any job in this game with the same character?
So theoretically when can I pick up a healing job?
AS a pugilist
you can pick conjurer any time as long as you can go to gridania
thank you!
you need to also complete your lvl 10 class quest
whats the easiest and fastest disciple of the hand/land to level?
before you can unlock other classes
They're indentical
I just want to do my beast tripe quest and the last quest requires me to be a level 50 of either one
You do them all at once
That’s not smart but you do you
what beast tribe quest?
I dont like crafting
im only doing it to fulfill what i need for last quest, i dont want to spend my game time doing something i dont enjoy
Then why are you doing a crafter tribe
Oh ok. So can you explain a bit more please? if I do the level 10 class quest, do I need to do it for the corresponding class as well, before I can get white mage or scholar or w/e?
So which one would be the easiest if anyone thats knowledgble knows
Any
Do alchemist or culinarian then, as they're the most indepenent of the lot
You need to do your lvl 10 class quest to unlock the armoury system as whole
For the class you started as
you'll have to do your class quests for the new class, regardless since one they unlock new skills and two are required to be completed to become a job
how do i get the in game bonus free teleport to an aetheryte for having 2fa on?
so im like lvl 17 rn on my glad and now im able to go get the rogue quest and become one. Since i'll be lvl 1 all over again, whats the quickest way for me to get to where my glad is? I'd assume its just side quests in the area.
once you've applied 2fa to your acct. there will be an option to make the location a free destination at the aetheryte
Fates, hunting log
Ah I see. Ok so assuming I have a level 70 Ninja and I also want to get him a Dark Mage job, I have to go through Thaumaturge quests and then up to Dark Mage? Also how does a class like Dancer work? Can my Thaumaturge become a dancer straight away at level 60?
yes, you'd have to go thru the thaum quests to unlock black mage
you'd be able to unlock dnc straight away since you've got a lv70 ninja (this is also assuming you own shadowbringers)
No the dancer is for another character I'm currently levelling. The char is currently a level 8 thaumaturge. So if I got her to 60, could I make her a dancer or do I need to have picked a different starting class for it? And yes I got shadowbringers
yes you could make the character a dnc once its lv60
expansion jobs dont have a base class
As a thaumaturge, right? Just asking again to make sure
SB and ShB jobs don’t have any real prerequisites other than level
it doesn't matter what class
Ok cool thanks everyone. This is such a helpful discord.
fates, hunting log, leves and guildhest, preferably multiple at the same time, it'll be pretty quick
Is it better to run Zadnor or just run the raids for this last Grind part to the ShB relic quest?
One last thing. For a higher level character, if I want to pick up a second class/job, I'll still have the level I had on the first job right? it's only the new one that would start at 1 again?
Finish off in raids
Levels are for that job
Ok cool, so I'll keep the original levels I had already. Just the new job would be back to square one?
I mean you just unlocked it so, it’d be at the starting job level for that expansion
depends on what you unlocked
if its a realm reborn class, it starts a lv1
if its a heavensward job, it starts at 30
stormblood jobs start at 50, and shadowbringers jobs start at 60
there's a google doc pinned in #doh-dol-lounge (get the doh/dol role to see it), that has macros for leveling
alrighty ty
can use those as a basis and modify them as neeeded
quick question, for beast tribe moogles
is most of the daily quest going to be crafting or killing stuff?
mostly crafting
Ok let me be specific then. I have a level 71 boosted Ninja, story boost too. If I wanted to give him the Dark mage job too, I'd have to go through the thaumaturge quests, then Dark mage, while starting from level 1, but as a Ninja he'd still be level 71? I hear switching between clases/jobs is easy right?
It’s all crafting
yes, it be a lv71 ninja with a lv1 thaumaturge when you unlock thaum
and switching between classes, once you've got them unlocked, is just a matter of equipping their weapon
can make gearsets and put them on your hotbar for easier time switching between them
Ok got it, thank you. I just wanted to make sure I won't lose the progress as a ninja, since he's a high level. Lol.
So I threw away my crafting pot and my crafting gear
where can i get a new pot
*pan
From a vendor
im in limsa

Syneyhil sells it
Is this accurate? Sorry just want to double check.
need to go into hawker's alley
yes you won't lose progress on your ninja when you switch to a different job @leaden ginkgo
Ok thank you. 🙂
Is it worth buying crafting gear outside of main arm when leveling?
asking mainly to see how much gil I can save/sink
You need to keep your gear updated
510
Also vendor gear isn’t HQ so it sucks
you can get by with vendor gear for crafters/gatherers
I was gonna say because im already wearing savage raid gear lol
so expensive though, but I guess you should have plenty of cash to spare
no cos you cant wear it as a crafter
You can get crafter exp manuals from your GC
You can, I've asked for assistance before in major cities using shout, but bear in mind that most of the time, you will be asked to provide the materials for the crafter that helps you
Gathering
buy from other server
praying that admanotise is cheaper
I was thinking of asking here on the server, as i have the materials. But I'm afraid people won't do it since its the Aesthete gear. I have bought some of it but well. The right side of the gear slots I can't craft myself yet in HQ. I'm stuck in a loop right now
People might ask for payment but...they’d do it
wow jenovas prices are so much cheaper
Yeah I assume so, but if its even close to half of the cost on the market board I'd rather just do the coinflip and pray to RNG. Considering getting materials and all that as well
Does gear matter for melding?
Hey guys. Just purchased the option items Tales of Adventure: Stormblood and I can't seem to find it at the Delivery Moogle. I have all the DLC and I previously purchased One Dragoon's Journey II and it shows up on the account straight away. Do I have to wait or is something wrong?
Materia have item level requirements
cool. ty
Based on the slot and materia tier
I am level 33 arcanist but all my gear is still level 15.. what's best way to upgrade it? I am only level 18 weaver
once I got my anemos weapon, is there any point staying in anemos?
is there any use of protean/anemos crystal beside augmenting the antique gear from non-eureka stuff?
Story and job quests
like when lv 60 people staying in anemos, what objective do they have? 🤔
like what motivates them to still farm at anemos for pazuzu for example
I don't see any other items coming from pazuzu feather beside anemos weapon

For the resistance weapons, what all gathering of the memories can be done on a different job that the weapon you want? I am nearing the delubrum step, and would rather not tank that if possible
yeah you can
just make sure you have the quest ongoing
so DR will drop the items
if you are working on multiple relic
you can keep the quest open until you farm enough memories
I am almost on it, finishing the one before it, doing the mhach raids now
how many weapon you are planning to do?
Honestly, I just wanna finish up pld and gear out before endwalker hits, I have my 4 jobs based on visual appeal that I plan to play in endwalker
ah ok
yeah, talk to the npc as a PLD
and then queue for delubrum with the class you like
use dps essence and spam x 5 till you get enough memories
I'll be going in as rdm, any suggested essences and lost actions I should bring?
skirmisher, not sure about the suitable lost action
I have a decent stack of the essences for dr only too, if that matters
then elder probably and lost font of magic (not sure)
If you want another weapon
Or if you're helping friends
Or of course the dyeable af gear
ok ty ty
Question: assuming I have addons to my subscription (companion app, retainers, etc.) and I opt for say 6 month subscriptions, are those adds ons gonna be added to that sub or will I still be charged monthly for those?
not sure on companion app, but retainers get rolled into your sub
so you'd be charged every 6mo same as your sub
Alrighty
i wanna say companion app is the same? but i can't say with certainty
It has to be. I am thinking of getting a six month sub for myself this xmas
Another question: if say I opt for crysta for my sub and should the sub run out, does it automatically deduct from the crysta I have accumulated? or do I have to pay manually again?
why do people not move their retainers to places with 0% tax? are they just lazy or are there other benefits that i'm missing
Speaking for myself..... yeah, I suppose I am lazy.
Hey y’all. I’m having an issue. I’m trying to complete the lvl 70 sch class quest and Alka Zolka is not appearing in south shroud, camp tranquil.
i see, thanks
I completed the previous quests, in which she’s also supposed to be in camp tranquil.

Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
Goodness me. Thanks lol
Does anyone know yet if the new roulette system for housing in endwalker will be applied to all wards or just ishgard because I was told it was only applied to certain wards so hmm
ah that really sucks
is there a gallery of all mounts somewhere? like a wowhead with pictures of them?
There’s this for an easy list of them https://ffxivcollect.com/
But it’s only their “sample” picture used in the mount guide menu
huh guys

lmfao
Could anyone help me figure out why I can't seem to do this quest? Please
i'd get that for sure

Is there a place you can spend Poetics in the Crystarium?
Or do I have to port to another town to do that?
No using poetics in ShB, yet
Gotcha, just capped from daily roulettes is all.
Seeing that Endwalker is around the corner, may I recommend buying gears for your sage and reaper?
Oh, I'm still near the beginning of ShB.
And my main is DRG, so I'll be set on Reaper gear.
Still gotta level AST though.
Reaper Poetic weapon, perhaps?
You can buy the necessary item for it now
Fastest way to famr 900 revelation?
Specific roulette order?
what necessary item
what do people mean by the nest fate in azim steppes?

At lvl 70 what level does menphinas ring sync down to ?
I have some poetics, I just hit 70, where do I buy high level 70 gear with poetics?
rhalgr's reach, you have to clear the stormblood msq
how come a low level materia still have price?
is there anything i didnt know about it?
i think some low-level materia are used for the ARR relic weapons
i see
Is the Aery usually such a long duty?
I'm leveling DRK so I decided to try tanking it and, even with me pulling w2w (with the healer keeping up), rotating cds, the rest of the party throwing out good damage and nobody dying it still took around 18-19 minutes
It's been a good while since I went through it for the MSQ so I can't remember if it was that long then or if we just had a not-so-great run
most of the leveling dungeon takes 20mins on average
not many easy/fast ways to get these and arr relics need a lot so the prices on mb aren't low most of the times
if i use Regen when tank pulling it's normal i have aggro for a bit right?
yes
Yes, healing generates aggro
The smell of not-dying angers them
is it correct that there is only one "type" of crafting gear? or is there a culinarian, blacksmith, goldsmith set etc.. ?
hey guys, I just finished doing the shadowbringers relic weapon quest, "The Will to Resist" and now its asking me to re-do a quest I already completed "For Want of a Memory"
is this a bug?
There’s crafter exclusive sets but like don’t use them, it takes up more inventory than needed
yeah, the next quest should be laws order
did you reach rank 10 and completed cll?
and completed "A Sign of whats to come" "Fit for a queen" and "In the Queen's Image"?
and then you need to also finish Delubrum Reginae
the repeatable quest itself is called "Change of Arms"
are there any quests left in gangos?
I'm on "The Lady of Blades"
ah, so you haven't completed delubrium reginae yet
no I haven't, but thank you for the help 🙂
is using +1 af lv70 weapon better in eureka or is ilvl510 better?
Sorry i have question
Is there any recommendation for UI setting or it is personal preference?
not much different eureka scales to ilvl300, only gear that makes a difference is the stuff with haste and elemental stats
ah alright
post ARR?
I would say personal preference. Though I would recommend making the enemy cast bar scale bigger so you will see it easily
you can do crystal tower raid series, it is mandatory to complete post ARR anyway
Alright thanks

AFAIK, no.
hi, if i only play 1 character, is there a difference between standard subscription and entry subscription?
Do all relic weps take around the same amount of time to farm?
you have to renew your gametime every 30 days but that's about it
i will still be eligible for those subscription length bonus even with entry sub?
yeah
great. thank you!
also, to preorder end walker, do i do it from mog station or FF14 store?
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/endwalker/
choose your correct platform here
and edition
it's the first raid boss of the game: buying the game
LOL
digital collector edition and standard edition, is it just the free mount and minion?
dunno, probably, never bothered with collectors. you can choose to 'upgrade' later
Basically yeah just the in game goodies
Can u get skybuilder scripts with fishing
yes, any DoL/DoH can turn in item to get scrip
The collectable npc does not allow me to see what I can trade in
I am confused
my fisherman is level 80
DoL is left side, one let you go to diadem, the other is appraiser
So the diadem is where I need to go to get the fish?
yes, you need to gather item in diadem then get them appraised to get skybuilder scrip
the appraiser will tell you how each item worth, a yellow title on the right menu like Item list
how to make my class icons look like this?
mod
is it discussable here?
yes
thanks
there is this weird side-nod your character often does in cutscenes, is it available as an emote? can't seem to find it
try /think while sitting
huh yeah, that's it
how come /think is different while sitting
I'm just using a calculator to display some job icons differently
well, any third party software is illegal but at least this thing is not gameplay changing or any sort of advantage, so SE may turn blind to those
Thing is, SE cannot check ur files n game to see if u got mods
they can but they don't

how do I enable the damage taken from name.
maybe that's just for pvp? or a mod, don't know
I just started the game and I can’t load into the second area
depends but if you can double weave without clipping at 2.4 GCD ur good
do i need BiS for 2.4 gcd? @outer mural
no but 2.4 is genrally the speed people run GNB at fir comfiness
o nvm my pld is 2.42
and i clip while double weave
it’s just based on ur skill soeed
ya then maybe GNB not the play if it’s consistently clipping
is single weave GNB bad?
how much dps can u expect from single weave gnb
fitting more defensives will be a struggle
Idk but it’s less than double weaving since less stuff will be inside of raid buffs depending
check fflogs but ballpark of 15k is good
oof 15k is too much 
you're only dealing like maybe 95~96% of someone with no ping
Hey guys does the squadron training board stats effect when your doing a Dungen with then
can single weave gnb hit 10k
probably
easily?
10k is low for a tank though
as a result of pressing more buttons outside raid buffs, and buttons starting to cooldown a bit later
true
you can't do a dungeon if they're not of a high enough level to qualify for it, and they're level synced to the dungeon's level when they exceed it
yeah easily with like 520 gear and being good at the class
i c
if you’re in 520 gear and only doing 10k
can i calculate dps with sss
- SSS does not account for a job’s RDPS contribution via skills like Battle Voice
- SSS is a 3 minute burst window where you adjust your rotation to fit in that period and does not reflect a realistic raid scenario
- Different jobs will be in peaks and troughs of their burst windows
- Different jobs have different SSS dps requirements
- SSS is not accurately tuned for the jobs they are supposed to represent in most cases
- 3 minutes is short enough to be able to be affected by lucky DH Crit bursts
- Certain jobs gain dps by having additional party members like Dancer/Monk
use a regular dummy
but PS4
i mean you could but it’s not super accurate
I'll just get an idea cos i got no other option
valid
hello.. just want to know is EU ultimate PF as much alive as NA one ?
There's some groups on light, but honestly for an ult a static will almost always be better
hey, new here! i capped out on allagan tomestone of poetics, ive googled a bit and found i should buy gear for them
where do i buy that gear? i assume a vendor in town, but there are 250x of them
is there a special icon for vendors that sell that gear?
Mor dhona or the blue bag icon in Gridania, Uldah, Limsa
ah so its always the blue bag icon?
those 3 above is for lvl 50 and you would want ironwork, then Ishgard for lvl 60 and so on
kk
so is the vendor in those towns always one with a blue bag?
im really just having trouble finding the vendor that sells it
If Blue Mage can't be used for most contents, what is it good for?
Media Tour NDA is up on the 12th, right?
it sells the same thing as those 2 girls in Mor Dhona
Goofing around
Can I use Blue Mage to farm FATE memories for example?
Yep
which girls? are the NPCs just not highlighted on the map?
To farm boring stuffs then? Lol
It can be used in everything but content over its level, and Eureka currently, Bozja will most likely be included in 6.1 (or whenever we get level 80 BLU)
There are achievements for using it in synced, no echo runs of final raid fights for titles and a mount
I haven't play around with Eureka just yet. Do I have to farm stuffs like in Bozjan?
they are not, when you tele to Mor Dhona, go north, look for 3 npcs next to each other near the gate to central coerthas
i just found it, thx a lot
If you’ve seen anyone with Morbol as a mount, they’ve at least cleared T5 T9 T13, A4S A8S and A12S with nothing but BLU
Blue bag vendors don't appear until you beat x.0 the base expansion
And no, Eureka is much more boring, and needs to be tweaked again -_-
Where do I check the dungeon/raid name? I remember T is Bahamut, E is Eden, I dunno what's A 😂
Alexander
You have to farm mobs to spawn the main fates, and they have 2 hour cooldown
Oh dear.. farming 60 memories is boring enough, Eureka is worse? Loool
It's final bosses of the respective tiers
Except for Alex you have to do savage for the morbol
T = Bahamut, A = Alexander, O = Omega, and E = Eden. Odds are we’ll be going with P for Pandemonium

That's the consensus
Unless they do what they did with Coils and have “turn” or “floor” or whatever
You get the idea
Probably still gonna be p
Arr is arr
I’m aware, but I remember groups trying to make O1-O4 “D1-D4” because it was Deltascape
🤷♂️ there's always going to be a few groups that try to do weird things
Like not including the T in the short hand for Palace of the Dead -_-
“Anyone one running PoD” “running what???”
Still Better then me consistently calling it House of the Dead
Some still argues POTD is the fastest to level 1-50
potd is good if youre queue times are 15+mins
I have some friends that do POTD with me so less than 5 mins queue, we're just looking for one more person
queue times for dungeons i meant
Either POTD or spamming dungeons
which is why ppl who are leveling alt dps generally do potd
hmmm makes sense
If you got something like minfilias earings that boosts xp by 30% and FC buff then dungeons will probably be faster.
You also get gear that you can wear, turn into seals ect.
I usually just run dungeons with squadrons hehe
they generally dont make up the efficiency of not having short queue times
that is the main reason why potd is recommended for dps
is because it is more efficient queue time wise
I leveled my palading from 30 to 50 in about one day in squadrons the other day.
it was mostly 1-2 levels per run.
squadrons takes a bit of investment to get to be able to run squadrons with
yeah, its best if your not healer when running with squadron
yeah, the tank can't keep agro, and the healer won't heal fast.
Had a few deaths cos no heals lol
lv 70+ can do trust dungeon right
yeah, you can also do some beastribe missions while waiting for duties.
anyway, this is just recommendations
Oh right, forgot about beast tribe missions
No worries, I take all what I can get
There are some gaps in squadron dungeons I think, like no 35 or 38 dungeon
can you buy anything on the store with crysta? or what can you buy with crysta besides gametime
How many max players can there be in one world?
they said 750 players at the same time is the maximum
ye can use crysta for the optional items
also, can you directly buy gametime with a card or it has to be through crysta
I always just bought it with crysta but now I'm wondering
there's an option for credit/debit card to pay for subtime
What do i do with excess "frosted protean crystals" in pagos eureka? Can i exchange them for pagos crystals?
sometimes steam acct. for mogstation can be a little...weird? not entirely sure why but trying using incognito mode/a different browser
maybe it gets replaced with steam payment if you are playing on steam
iirc a few people who have steam see both
but i'm not steam so can't really comment on it
all i know is that incognito/diff browser has worked int he past for ppl with same issue
incognito didn't fix it but it's not really a problem, I was just wondering
steam payment should work perfectly fine right
could also be hidden since you are allrdy on a recurring sub but who knows squares account stuff can be messy sometimes
ye
Is anyone else on Crystal experience some weird latency issues?

I have a really weird technical problem with the game lol
I launched the game via steam and got a blue screen for some reason
when I rebooted my pc, it looks like the game uninstalled itself (?)
also when I try to log in, it says that my subscription has expired while this can't be true as mogstation says it's still valid
blue screen isn't a problem anymore
the point is, it seems like the ff14 launcher doesn't recognize the fact that the game is already installed
I had to redownload the launcher from steam
anyone know how much it takes to go through stormblood an shadowbringers story?
around the same as HW for each
the whole 53 GB folder is still there
weird
but the launcher tries to redownload the whole game
and with my current internet it's not an option
not sure about ff14
but this happens often with PoE on steam (evcery update needs too redownload whole game)
thats why i use the standalone version of both games
as you can see, the whole 53 gigabyte folder is still here
and yet the launcher tries to redownload the whole game
Hey, are there any good super early game money making methods (I just need enough that I can be able to consistently teleport around for quests without my wallet draining)
if you doing the MSQ only, the game throw you way more than needed
you can do roulette leveling with adventurer in need bonus
around 5-6k per run (it scales of your level so the higher the more you get)
that is like 15-20 tele for 20mins farming
are the gridanian barding and half barding from the twin adders shop different things ? and are they different from the gridanian saddle you get with your chocobo?
otherwise, allied and centurio seal then exchange for aetheryte ticket
yes, they're two different things
its not a super big difference, but the basically the half barding doesn't have quite as much armour as the barding you get when you unlock your chocobo
and the crested barding has more, with the helm being a bit fancier
Try checking where it is trying to download it, it might be that your ff14 is in a different location to where the game is checking for it, and if that is an unfixable issue and your c drive lacks the space, you could always try making a symbolic link in a c-drive folder to trick the installer into thinking the folder is in c-drive when its actually in d-drive
that might not be the issue but just one idea
sorry if I explained that poorly lol
Should I keep unique items? Even if they are low level and no more useful?
but you have it on steam while i dont so idk
just check where it is installing if you can and figure it out from there
i'd check what drive is filling up first, and if its c drive then it might be in program files x86 and if its d-drive it might be in your steam folder
its D drive
here
hmm so its trying to reinstall the full game in the same file location that it is already installed in?
I guess? I have no idea how to check the install location
I can let it download for a while
does king moogle extreme give out a TT card ?
but as I said, right now I'm in my parents house and the internet is extremely slow
okay sorry im not sure then, I just was wondering if you had the same issue that I had but it seems not
:/
same as hard version
oh and if I reinstall it, I will have to do all of my gearsets all over again right?
as it doesnt save this
is it possible to change the game into, for example, japanese voice, but keep the rest in english? with subtitles etc
fuck im so annoyed
the english synchro is killing me
System settings
Audio option there
Stuff like that can be saved to the server from the character select menu but you can also find the files in "my documents -> FFXIV -> in your character folder
And you can copy and paste
god bless, thanks!
thank god
I also get this screen whel I log in using the aplication in the files
You on free trial?
in the steam
no
I'm subscribing for over 60 days
it seems like it doesnt link it to steam
?
my sub is still valid, checked mog station
If you got the Non-Steam version of the game you can't use Steam to launch the game
no you don't understand
ill try to explain better
I got a blue screen for some reason and when I restarted my PC, steam showed the game as uninstalled
so I redownloaded the launcher and now it wants me to download the full game all over again
even though the whole 53 gigabyte folder is still there
when I tried to launch it using ffxivboot from the files and log in, this happens
and I have no idea what to do
real fast is e9-12s rewards unlocked and farmable ?
yes
Just for the sake of absolutely making sure I'd like to see your Mogstation service account page
hey! quick question about retainers: I have 2/3 retainers set to conjurer but they are locked at lvl 43 right now and Im not leveling up my whm right now. how does the retainer level affect the stuff they bring back? should I just reset them to another class?
Level means less item level which means generally less good stuff from quick venture and lower level means no access to the higher level other ventures
Your actual account home screen bit please

Yeah okay good good
You have no idea how many people genuinely don't realise they made a mistake somewhere which that clears up
oh right, so I probably should reset them to other classes where I have higher lvl alts right?
thx for the info
sorry i didn't see your answer earlier, thank you !
So what I would do is make sure your gearsets and stuff are copied somewhere else and I would delete your FFXIV folder in "my documents" because IIRC that will reset the launcher to be as if you just opened it for the first time and then I'd just enter your log in details etc etc and see if it works them after launching from Steam
@sullen moth
Are they Conjurer or White Mage?
alright how do I copy my gearsets?
conjurer
Could always upgrade them to an expansion job if you have one of those levelled?
When you can
Otherwise yeah if you don't wanna level up White Mage I'd swap to something else
Yeah because you'll be deleting that entire thing
I'd just copy everything in the folder and not the folder itself
like which one? got dnc, rdm, sam, smn, blm. I got to start leveling them at lvl 1 then again?
All combat jobs do the same thing in terms of ventures just pick something you actually have levelled so you can gear it and have it be a decent level
do they bring back different stuff depending on job?
Yeah just those. I'm just not sure if when the folder gets remade the chara folder might be renamed to something else and I'd rather avoid some unforeseen problem
nice, will do
That wasn't for you lol
Only so far as all combat jobs give the same things and then each gatherer job gives unique things
I'd delete the entire FFXIV folder in my documents
Then launch game from your steam library
oh ok. thx a lot!
And that should make the launcher open up as if you've never opened up before
that is correct
It's doing that right now?
When you downloaded it before was that...via steam?
yes
where can i find the chat service costumer support?
When you were on the free trial perhaps?
Ah yeah that's probably it then
but just today it stopped recognizing its own files
It's probably because of the change from free trial to actual sub
nonono
even yesterday everything was as it should be
but for some ungodly reason
my pc crashed today
not a big deal in itself, but steam stopped recognizing the game as downloaded
so I redownloaded the launcher
and now it wants to download the game again
Okay okay
Is it downloading into the same folder as the preexisting files?
What spell i need for bluemage to leveling from 60 to 70 please im still spaming water ball
Different drive?
no its D drive
So it's the same drive?
And it's making a new folder in that drive?..
I blame SE for not making a good launcher tbh, this one lacks options
I would assume so?
so far its just one folder
but it wants to download the same game twice
if you only need to be level 50 for samurai, does that mean you can play it in the free trial?
What I'm saying is, is it making two XIV folders one new one old or is it trying to download the new files into the preexisting folder?
do I just bite the bullet, delete all ff14 files and download the game from scratch?
no
Needs Stormblood
Ownership
I have no idea how to check that
hi i want to change job but i cant
ah, unfortunate
should I wait until more files download?
with the same logic, GNB and DNC are free which is hilarious
do you mean this ??
Yes
first time playing ahah

So You Want to Be an Arcanist
My First Grimoire
Yeah okay it IS level 1
so what should I do
Is there a way to use the 4k resolution UI without making it look like a mistake?
just download the game anyway?
Because if I do this is what happens:
You'll need to keep doing those quests until you get to the level 10 one because you neglected to do the level 1 and 5 one lol @shell plank
change the hud
Yeah it seems I will have to do that xD
oh ok
u can move the hud pieces around
Yeah, seems like I need to do that to everything
Surely you'd be able to just look into your Steam folder and see where this data is getting put to but yeah if you absolutely want I see 0 reason why just deleting EVERYTHING and then reinstalling wouldn't work
You'd have my respects though for that download time

its funny
because steam redirects me to the 53 gigs folder
when I downloaded it the first time I was in my apartment in the city so the game downloaded in 40 minutes
this one right
Yeah
okok
Is there a way to make this smaller? It doesnt show up on the HUD settings
last thing I do is I'll try to play with steam settings and if that doesnt work I'll just bite the bullet and redownload this bad boy
after I delete all ff14 steam file
s
Yeah I feel ya. I'm in the same boat and I hope this works out for you but I'm kinda out of ideas except that IF it's downloading into a separate folder maybe there is some way to get Steam and point at your preexisting game folder and go "no look it's here you idiot" but I'm not well versed in Steam settings
!faq xivlauncher
what does BA mean?
try this one, it works with both steam and stand alone
I think its more of an issue with se launcher
isnt there an option for steam to check the local files to repair them?
not steam
ty
Just go with the 3rd party launcher 
3rd party launcher is nice and yeah actually that might work @sullen moth
Thanks people
I didn't think about that
I'll just ask for your help with the character thingy I backed up
so I get back my hotbars and such
the problem is not steam who directly run game, it refers back to SE launcher that check file not working
