They're linked anyway so you can level both at the same time easy
They share some early level mats
Q: what are these Orchestra rolls I am collecting? Do I need to be a Bard to use them properly?
They let you play the songs of the orchestrion rolls you've collected at an orchestrion, which are located in inns, or can be placed in player houses
No, they’re tracks for the orchestrion which is a music player
Which are found where chicken said
oh,..I see,..ty.
You right-click and use them to consume them and add them permanently to your orchestrion list
Orchestrion,..heh. I will look for it
Just enter any inn room
just me and my Orchestion,...alone..
if you have a room in your FC house, or your own apartment, or your own house, you can also set playlists with the songs you've collected so when you enter it plays the ingame music you want
Do buffs/debuffs affect LBs? So someone recently resurrected does less dmg, etc?

What's the latest way to afk limsa
Where can i find Koh in revenants toll
is there a bozja guide somewhere?
In redoing resistance weapo quest, does replica not count in getting all the quest?those repeatable ones
you'll get replica when you finished the phase of the weapon
i completed blade one, i want to go zadnor level up alts, and get loot from the quest
Any idea how to get the fate "fallen corpses writhe in style" to spawn? Im trying to do the hildebrand quests
like if you want to get the recollection replica, you must reach the law order stage
then you need to have the quest in your journal
i mean, i completed my resistance weapon up to 535lvl, i want to get those repeatable quest active so i can get loots from zadnor, replica weapons doesnt activate quest?
nope
ohh, so i need to make a new weapon for new class?
yes
yeah
omg,
how do I get fine miner furniture from gold saucer?
I see Meoni previewing it
ooo nvm it's limited edition to 2021 make it rain zzzz
anyone still having problems with connecting? my game has been really slow loading so tried to restart now it wont even boot
but tbh, I just logged in Shiva, no problem
anyone willing to help with a main story quest?
Crafter jobs take time to level up like DoW or it is faster?
depends how you go about it but usually faster than a combat job
Might be a stupid question but how do I get the two slots to hold the lost actions, I cant seem to find where
there are guides on youtube on how to level a crafter in a day if you have the gil for it
you got gatherers?
depending on the material needed and how fast you go through gear it can be a couple mil gil, but this is for the super speed method
ishgardian restoration has the diadem inside it where you can gather materials and then a few over world materials and make crafts that you can turn in for a lot of exp
How do I get the play guide prompt to stop popping up when I log in?
if youd rather do it the traditional way, i found that just making new recipes around the level i was at was best
very grindy but folks have created macros so you just push one button to do most crafts so you can watch something to pass the time
all in all its very handy (and lucrative if you know what to craft) to have a max leveled crafter in the end
i see
i'll give it a shot sometime
how long
do squadron missions
take?
ohhh
it sells you
if they fail
do they still get xp?
get all dol to 80 in diadem and use this guide to level all the doh https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vgtU7HFtG87TrJ9U47vnzkFMhSl5HKz7bjJhRXbxaas/edit

Thanks!
how much additional xp
do you get
when leveling another class
to catch up to the first class
If this is your second job to level, you should automatically receive an Armoury Bonus. Secondary jobs at levels 1-69 receive a +100% bonus, while levels 70+ only receive +50%?
armory bonus for not-being-the-highest-level-class is +100%
is that accurate?
yep
oh ok thanks
probably uninstall/disable all mods and cmtool
What's the difference between midcore and semi-midcore static?
This is correct
Currently. 70+ only gets 50%
Otherwise lower level is 100%
thanks
My guess is when EW hits, the 100% will extend to 79. Whereas 80+ only gets 50%

definitions for hardcore/midcore/semi-midcore aren't really set in stone. It's usually a good idea to ask people what they mean by the terms, to make sure you're on the same page. How many days/hours per week, how long to clear the tier, if parsing/speed is an important element/expectations there
In general a lot of the scale for it depends on the amount of hours available each week to raid, and along with that how long it will take you to clear the tier from fresh. Some people also use the overall skill level as part of the designation there. It's a bit fuzzy especially when you get into the realm of "semi-midcore/midcore/semi-hardcore"
currently on sale
how much
oh wait endwalker?
15 eur oof
like literally in the official store
👀
trying to build a macro, but i'm kind of dumb when it comes to them. I'm wanting it to target a PC, poke them and send them a tell message that says BOO. how would I go about that?
When The complete edition Sale ends ?
just buy, get the code and apply later when you want to start with the full version
assuming you are playing on PC
you don't have to start playing with full version once you bought
is their somewhere to buy crafting crystals or do i have to farm them
yeah that's the FT restriction
what is this glowing orb i'm seeing
based on your account region
how do i know
account information, your mogstation account
its cyan and it keep pulsing
sightseeing log i'm assuming
what is vista
type /pray /sit /lookout
ohh
so i need to buy it from here https://store.eu.square-enix-games.com/en_EU/product/603771/final-fantasy-xiv-online-complete-edition
yes
it will give me free 30 days ?
When you register
what about ft time it will remove ?
please ignore that one
its ok
yeah once you apply the code, it will remove your free trial status
You stop being on trial the second you register the code
i mean the Free trial remaining time since it gives you 30 days
the 30 free gameplay isn't a free trial
Free days, aren’t trial
and free trial don't have time limit
so you get 30 free gameplay with full version
can trade with your friend, can join FC during that 30 days free playtime
you just can't level more than lv 60 and can't proceed to stormblood
And all the social restrictions
ik ik i dont know how to say it sorry my english is quit bad
i will try to explain.
i create the account 4 days For free trial account you get 30 days to play in free trial
if i have bough the game it will give me 30 days
in total i have 56 Days left ?
free trial has no time limit, buying the game remove that but it grants you 30 days free of sub, after that, to continue playing, you must pay
free trial =/= free 30 days game time from the complete edition
and free trial has no time limit
Have you started Eureka at all?
You gotta get through all of it for Ozma
afaik you can just talk to the guy in pier#1 and don't have to do the unlock quest in rhalg reach
unless I'm wrong
Yes you do
ah ok then I unlocked it and didn't do it till I finished SHB 😂
cause when I was about to try it, I could enter straight away
Progress through Eureka story all the way to the end, and then you’ll be able to unlock it
I’m ready
What datacenter/server are you on?
Lol
Yeah Baldesion is an experience

yeah, then max crit,det and then rest is sks

Is there a way to check what songs u have?
try emailing support on monday
log>orchestrion list
oh
DoTs snapshot buffs upon use/refresh, LBs ignore all buffs/debuff the fight itself doesn’t give
!faq limitbreak
Resources by Allagan Studies
Limit Break Explained
Shadowbringers Limit Break Video
For how LB damage is calculated
what does snapshot mean?
They look at whatever buffs/debuffs were active and use those to calculate the damage for the entire duration
Even if it falls off halfway through the DoT
This also means you can’t use a damage buff in the middle of a DoT and have it do more damage without reapplying the DoT
Do you need to unlock the job for your starter class before you can unlock jobs for others?
Nope
But if this is for an expansion job, you should upgrade to a job since you’ll lose out on abilities while leveling up to unlock the job
Oh I'm sorry, they just weren't showing up on the map for some reason
Thank you for the quick response
Which jobs are you trying to unlock?
Scholar, but I see the quest now
Ahh
I did the relevant msq but it wouldn't show, reloaded and it did
Make sure to grab healer gear if you haven’t
Yea
yeah, be an arcanist and check your job quest
and click the quest, it will lead you to the location where to unlock scholar
!faq msqtracker
-
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.
Yep
the no 2
Also, not to imply that balance between jobs is any worse than perfect, but scholar is considered one of the weaker healers, right?
At least, this is the sentiment I've seen
no, it's very strong
Relatively
nope
Odd
it's just that the player must understand how to play it
and not many of them can play it well
it's all the player skill
Like all jobs
yeah
how to grind from level 30 to level 50 in heavensward ?
I plan to level up machinist
!faq altlvlguide
cant gain road to 70 on your existing character
just make sure you unlock all leveling dungeon
create a new character on a preferred server
what species is Isobe
Armory bonus exists as long as you have one class at a higher level than another class. Road To 70 is from the Preferred Server buff and exists alongside it, so they will get both if they still have it.
But Road To 70 does have an expiration.
I might not have road to 70 buff
How much exp/mettle is daldiada supposed to give per run?
is there a place in this discord i can beg for carries ? >_> Been having a bad time pugging cloud deck and tired of resetting prog every time the PF ends
How to level up from 30 to 50 basically, I wanna try out machinist
about 3mil mettle
!faq altlvlguide
no begging is against the rules too sadly
i know what you're trying to get at
but the reality is you can try the recruitment channels but PF is better for one-time things
Yeah, i just need patience.
It's just frustrating to get the fight down, them start back from phase one with a new PF group
@boreal storm thanks
@Channy#8761 tya
I have spent 6 hours trying to clear cloud deck... This fight shouldn't be a 6 hour fight
I'd like to get a Brand New set for a disciple of magic but I don't see any incomplete options in the Hall of Novice (I already completed it as a disciple of war a while ago)
Should I click "play completed exercises" and it'll reward me a magic set?
It's the same process, sans anything you can't do as one of those classes—for example, MCH has no hunting log, so .... don't do hunting logs.
Hey new to ffxiv online and was wondering, since I have the starter bundle that only comes with ARR & Heavensward wouldn't I be better off preordering Endwalker and getting all previous expansions at release?
Depends on if you’re fine with being stuck at level 60 until November
I think a sale is currently happening on the SE store?
I have no problem with that since I just finished ARR and off to the patch quests so I'm a little ways away from reaching stormblood
Are you looking at the menu as a magic DPS?
yeah
Bought through steam unfortunately
In that case, just redo the missions as a caster/healer and you’ll get the items.

So I need to select novice training scenario 1, confirm I want to redo it, finish it, then 2, etc., through 7?
Or does it give rewards just from repeating 7th?
Not all of them give gear, lemme see which ones give what
Ah, you're right, it might've been spread over multiple!
is there supposed to be a level 50 monster guarding my level 5 quest
(sorry im new)
Thank you!
So my best bet is preorder Endwalker, get the preorder bonus and start Stormblood upon release
The level 50 monster is natural, but it being at your quest objective is an unfortunate coincidence. 😬
It has a lot of different spawn points in the zone
it deletes me whenever i get close
If you’re not trial, try shout chat to tell people “A rank at <pos>”
Or in the novice network
I'm on the last part of relic weapon quest. 10/15 quest items. But I want it done on another class. If I abandon, do the quest items disappear?
Awesome thanks!
Would it be a good idea to level BLU now so I can stock up on Allied Seals and thus Aetheryte Tickets?
Is there a mod that display other people’s cd on my screen?
Think I saw some streamer raiding with a small buff list window
Including stuff like Div and TA and raid buff stuff
Like showing party cool downs
tbh don’t actually think me or my group is good enough to benefit from it lol
But seems fancy
My quick google session point out to Spell timer overlays
Sorry have question
The FFXIV clock tool is ingame time not the irl time?
There are 3 clocks: Local time(your pc time), Eorzea 1m = 3sec real time and Server time
XIV launcher has a plug in like that, displays some party members buff timers/cooldown and some of your own buffs
Hun nice
If you click it, it'll swap between them,
I should go check it out
You can also add clocks in hud layout
Oh yeah that should also work

Is there a app I can use that will make FFXIV stay at 1080p even if the setting is instead at 720p? Someone told me there was one before but I don't know the name though.
I need it cause it switches to 720p all on its own for some reason. It's been like that ever since I got the game which was 2 months ago.
My monitor is at 1080p too as you can see in this screenshot, but it says 720p in the game.
You're on borderless windowed, that resolution setting is only for windowed/fullscreen
So it is odd the window is the wrong size
Borderless Windowed is my favorite one when playing in-game. Is there an app like the one I mentioned above?
Switch to full screen then switch back to borderless windows
I do that multiple times. That's what I meant earlier when I said it kept switching back. I went to full screen, then borderless and it works but sometime it'll go back to 720p again when re-launching the game.
Huh
Try using FFXIV launcher
I was using base version before when this occurred, and I started using the launcher like 2 weeks ago but still the same thing.
Hm. Maybe clear out your local files for the game?
Might wanna do a fresh install
You can back up the UI to the cloud on character select
I'll do the install again I suppose. It's been like that since day 1 really, but maybe it got installed the wrong way or something so I'll do that. Lol XD
I definitely know the issue you have, i play borderless windows and have seen it a couple times, but it's not something i see often enough to bother me
It happened to me like 5 times today, lol XD
So def could be something weird with the install. Make sure you clear the local and apps files that might have some data in it
Might also be a directx or a driver issur
So make sure that's all up to date
Ok. Thanks pal :3
GL
So that's normal to switch like that? Just not often?
I've seen it before, but it's setting i get like every 2 weeks at most
The resolution in the box had nothing to do with the resolution the game is at though
Borderless windows should always be your monitors resolution
The listed resolution that you have highlighted is only for full screen
But look at the screenshot. That's why I sent the screenshot. The game says 720p, but my monitor say 1080p. It doesn't match
I get that, but it's not that setting that's setting your resolution.
Notice how the boxes are grey and uminteractable
If you change it to full screen you can modify those boxes because those only set your resolution in fill screen mode
When I switched to full screen I did set it to 1080p then switch to borderless and it go back down to 720p if that's what you mean.
Sorry in advance if I'm not getting it.
Weird. Sorry man, i wanna help more but i gotta shower.
I got around to levelling up Bard recently, and I'm trying to get more into performance, but I can't stand the default keybindings for Performance. Are they any Bard/Performance centric people or guilds I could ask around about this?
Well ok. No worries. Maybe the game hates me. It's like, "we don't need this sprout newbie among us" or something. Idk, lol XD
why is the cone for positional not showing?
You can switch between full keyboard and single octave keyboard, so you can do away with the shift/ctrl stuff if you'd like. Beyond that, your button setup is probably gonna be too personal to offer advice on. Default is kinda poopy but I used it too much and got used to it, so I can't switch now

Gotcha. I found a few screenshots floatin around of different keybindings, but they're all a bit weird.
these are positionaless mob, you can hit anywhere while still gain full benefit from the positional requirement
!faq positional
that's nice thanks!
what should i spend my poetics on? (i dont need gear)
!faq poetics
Off the top of my head: buy gear, then trade it for GC seals
OHH smart
I had someone with login issues on PS5, anyone know how to fix it?
Is Bozjan really the best place to go 70-80? I think it might just be me but the leveling process feels slow to me. What about the trust system that's similar to the squadron for 1-50?
100% is
CEs are chunky
and skirmishes are consistent
@vagrant crescent
so i checked my copy of the game
i'm definitely not on 720p resolution
i wouldn't worry about what that box says
Well ok, lol XD
the glitch you're seeing is because the game doesn't know what size the monitor is i think
do you have other programs that maybe are set to 720p running?
if you had to guess, when do you think 6.1 will be out ? ( asking for data center travel )
Is it cause I'm using 2 monitor you think? That's why the screenshot was long too cause I took the screenshot of both at once by mistake back than.
no, i use 2 1440p monitors
By program, if you mean different game than yea.
Oh nvm. No. I read it wrong
@dusky belfry 3.5-4 months after 6.0. so mid-late fabruary, maybe early march
I thought it said "aren't". Oops, lol XD
i see, thanks !
ffxiv is very consistent with patch cycles
only delays are a break between HW and 3.1 (they were given a 2 week vacation cause they basically worked non stop for 3 years to fix the game), and of course covid delayed 5.3
that is a nice graphic and wow they really are consistent i’m gonna save that
but yeah, i'd say reinstall game. Maybe make sure you're using directx11 to launch, and make sure game drivers are updated
if you're still getting issues... i dunno lol
Ok. Thank you :3
Ok :D
there is an option to upload it to cloud storage from character select screen, but i'd also make a backup copy on the computer
Ok :3
Can blue mages party up for masked carnivale?
preferred worlds have the star by them right ?
oooh thanks!
@dusky belfry
all of crystal is preferred
i don't know if they have a start but lodestone is easier to see
unsure of if they are labeled ingame with a star* i mean
but lodestone has a neat list
no, balmung is preferred
it's 'temporarily' congested
which means you could probably try logging in late at night to make a character
it’s 2:30 am for me i’m holding on lol
when a server has too many people online they will shut off character creation temporarily...
yeah... but it's only 11:30 on the west coast
so might be easier to just wake up early
also try on a weekday
do you have any idea of when aether will open up ?
How far into eureka do you need to be to get the idealized eureka artifact armor for your class?
alright well i expected that
If you mean dyeable af gear it's just the first zone
Yeah the dyeable stuff. That's not bad then
Elemental gear requires completion of the first three zones, then the last one for dyeable version
I thought I'd have to go a while for it
does arcanist level both summoner and scholar and if so how???
Sorry i have question
All healer job is viable,but what the most easy to use?
probs white mage i think (just heals)
when you play SMN and SCH, ACN is the job that gain exp
so if i was to max out a arcanist would that level both to max???
yes
for all ARR job, each time you gain exp, your base class gain it
nope, that is the only odd case
kk ty
Alright thanks
How much damage must I do in any Zadnor skirmish to get the memories? I'm with a group of people that literally are oneshotting almost every skirmish, and I'm lucky if I get to do 2-3 hits, but I get no memory
Are you running solo or in a group? It makes a difference in the calculation for participation reward
solo
well, in the last one I did a lot of damage, but I didn't get a memory anyway? I thought all Zadnor skirmishes gave me memories, but it isn't happening
equip your crafter soul in the jobstone area
np
I'm following this, but I'm getting not even 1 Bleak Memory after doing a lot Zadnor z3 skirmishes
So i have everything maxed out in graphics settings and the FXAA does a horrible job at 1080p UW.... without enabling fullscreen and doing resolution scaling stuff is there a way to get better image smoothing in this game?
can't seem to force FSAA in control panel ;|
are you getting full credit for the skirmish
dunno
yeah, i know
so if you're not getting gold, then that would be why
i get some mettle, and sometimes more stuff, sometimes not
but not even once in z3 I get any memory
There's an icon on the left side of the pop up when the skirmish is done
that indicates the rating you get
It's easier to get the highest rating for participating if you're in a group as well.
ok, Im gonna check what icon shows there after the next skirmish

wow that sent horribly
oh, so I get rating for the damage my party does too?
how do you hit gold/pink parse ?
99th/100th percentile, AKA basically be the best person at that job in that fight out of everyone else
You use BiS gear and sometimes use strats that cater to keep your uptime as close to 100% as possible
And some cases, I think you actually let the boss live a bit longer to fit in an extra burst phase if applicable?
ok so let’s say reaper comes out and i do savage 6.x with it. obviously i’ll be competing with top players but how hard is it as a new raider to learn a brand new class and ‘learn’ fights to the point where i can do all that you just said
I got an icon like a medal
but that was in Z2, I got memory there
like is there a google doc or discord for how top players analyze and optimize fights ?
I'm not the kind of person that can answer that, best to ask in the balance discord.
I don't really do much savage content at all, much less chasing for high percentiles
if I get that medal icon, do I get max rating and memory?
if it's a gold medal, yes
There are three levels of medals. Need to know which one
what do i need to do to get gold medal in z3?
"Enough"
Enough in quotations due to how skirmishes and CEs scale
being in a party massively helps since everyone's contribution is pooled together to determine the medal you get
so better get with people who're not so good, so I'm good enough in the skirmish damage? because literally they're oneshotting some skirmishes
can i get that balance link ? thanks for the recommendation
oh, ok, so if I go solo, there is 0 chance of getting it then?
!faq balance
if you're not using a build/set-up with high damaging essences/actions, probably
It's much harder, yes.
also how early/late you get to a skirmish
Especially if there's a crowd
only just protect
you obviously have a much better chance if it spawns right by you
I recommend grabbing Lost Rampage or Lost Burst depending on what role you are
DRG
because that crowd will put out a load of damage all at once, and that'll get pooled, but your solo contribution will be pittance against the overall total
Delivers an attack with a potency of 300 to all nearby enemies.
Additional Effect: Interrupts all nearby enemies
Additional Effect: Increases damage taken by enemies with Physical Aversion by 10%
Duration: 60s
Strongest AoE damage for all physical jobs
Does the spirit of the watcher effect on lost full cure only work for yourself?
as in the individual buffs? only for you IIRC
ive been hearing around that pld is strong now? at what level does that happen lol im 54
There's so many alt jobs I wanna do, but dunno how to level them up and what to do next.
I hope the guide helps because it tells me to do POTD and HOH and eureka and bozsja
PLD picks up a lot in damage at the level 68 mark when they get Requiescat to buff Holy Spirit
60 is another damage increase from Royal Authority
Potd, hoh, bozja are solid, but it's mainly because they let you play the job at a higher level than you current are without having to gear up
God I hate navigating in this game..
awesome ty
Go to Ul'dah they say... It's easy they say...
Always attune to aetherytes whenever you see them. 🙂
besides lost rampage, in the other slot should I have Lost Protect II or Lost Font of Power? Or anything else?
It's going to get easier in Endwalker with the interactive city navigation UI update. =)
Well, you're DRG, so you can pair Life Surge with Lost Slash for massive damage
!action lost slash
Delivers an attack with a potency of 800 to all enemies in a cone before you. When critical damage is dealt, potency is tripled.
This action does not share a recast timer with any other actions. Furthermore, the recast timer cannot be affected by other actions.
!action life surge
I still haven't made up my mind about the game. $100 worth of expansions is a distant shore.
@austere bobcat so those 3 are used to grind levels right ?
2,400 potency critical hit AoE
Lost Swift is a nice situational skill that can help with getting to stuff faster
same with the Essence of the Breathtaker, as it DOES boost mount speed
I don't have Lost Slash yet
they come from the forgotten fragment of violence
so basically potd is a good way to level up to level 60 ?
they're like 1-2k gil each on the marketboard for aether
if you have slow dungeon queues, yes.
POTD gives lower experience than dungeons, but make it up by having a generally faster queue time since it takes any 4 people to make a party
I don't have that one either XD
I'm still missing 16 lost actions and 6 essences
swift comes from the ingenuity fragment
@obsidian patio ok because I wanna level up a lot of jobs while having fun doing so, so I am confused about the way to level up
do u have a list with where to get each fragment?
this one doesn't have the Delubrum/zadnor fragments, but it shows each action and what slot they take up
(All the Delubrum/Zadnor actions/items would be after the last displayed action/item for that category)
so dungeons, roulettes, leves, fates and potd, hoh are good ways to level up then ?
right thats what I got from the guide
Hey guys got a question regarding macro
Could you change move type as a macro button without accessing the char configuration?
@obsidian patio ok, I see... thanks, when to switch to an alt job tho ? Like post msq or whenever i want ?
whenever you want, really.
Can I get forgotten fragment of violence in zadnor?
Oh Ok, thanks because I was confused when to play the following jobs
- Machinist
- Dark Knight
- Gunbreaker
- Dragoon
- Paladin
- Summoner
- Red Mage
and some more
(like blm)
some of those unlock after u get to lvl 50
Ninja and Samurai are at level 50 and 54 respy
and Machinist, Dark Knight , unlock when u get to Heavensward (1st expansion, after 2nd time u see credits roll)
Yeah I know about that
hence I was worried about how to get my machnist to level 50 once I unlock it. It begins at level 30 right
each roulette once per day and highest dungeon available
Does your lvl reset if you leave euraka?
@wheat plume thanks a lot, I just have so many jobs to do It becomes difficult in picking them. I can't wait to try out sage as well when I finally buy endwalker
Hey guys! Could use some help.
I seem to be unable to find job specific quests for Dragoon (level 54 & 56 quests).
They're normally given by Alberic in Coerthas (Observatorium) as far as I know.
Quest names should be "Sworn Upon a Lance" and "Dragoon's Errand".
I'm not sure if there are any prerequisites that I've missed.
I'm currently level 56, and my main scenario quest is "The Sea Rises" in case it matters.
Any tips ?
you need to progress the main scenario quest to heavensward to pick up the 50-60 job quests
keep doing MSQ
so keep doing msq
Ah, okay. Thank you guys!

varies per datacenter/server
as a starting tip, check items that are favorited on the marketboard
Sometimes even level 1-50 materials can sell for higher or more often than expansion materials
stuff like Granite, Mythril Ore, Silver Ore, Effervescent Water, Electrum Ore, Cobalt Ore, and Darksteel Ore for miner, as an example
Or things like Spruce Logs, Mahogany Logs, Rosewood Logs, and maybe even Humus for Botanist

hey guys question about maintenance, is this time like 12 or 24
does it mean 2 pm or 2 am
is floor 1 or floor 21 the better plan to spam from for exp in HoH?
21-30
oh? there are timers for that?! that's convienient ty @arctic schooner
i know that much but i wasn't sure if the exp was better starting at 1 for some reason
ok, haven't used it for leveling in actual years so i wasn't certain
SOS: Friend registered his SQEX account but can’t enter email confirm code because he closed the tab. He can’t verify his email now. Any advice? We tried to reattempt login, password recovery, etc to no avail.
Well… can that be circumvented?
Or register with new email
Hmmm I guess.
As far as i know thats the only way
currently at zadnor quest that asks for 30 of each, 2books 2parts, am i about to be done with relic or is there still a big bulk to do?
Is there any real benefit from levelling up all classes???
amaro mount
The satisfaction
in terms of direct gameplay benefits, no.
yeah there’s nothing important but there’s a benefit of having more classes levelled just to play
plus you get amaro
Knowing how they play to help others/adjust accordingly
Ok and when they release a new level cap would I be able to switch back to a base class or no?

You basically have no reason to go back to the base class once you unlock the job.
SE trims skills or uses traits to upgrade existing skills to help combat hotbar bloat 😄
So i cants or can??
classes are completely inferior to their job.
Switch back to arcanist for example
hey guys, where can i find this lodestone spell from zadnor, googling keeps showing me the actual lodestone website
you can, but people in your group won't like you
I’m aware
you can take off the job stone but if u dare to do content people will be angry
Hehe

you can but there’s zero reason to
if this is asking about hotbar space then yes
To use Endwalker Black Mage for example, they're getting 3 "new" skills, but two of those are upgrades from previous skills (Fire 2 and Blizzard 2 upgrading into Hi-Fire and Hi-Blizzard).
So I’d be able to do a gladiator and arcanist on on slot??
And the new skill is taking the space of 2 removed skills, one becoming a trait (Enochian) and another shifted to being a role action (Sleep)
on slot?
What?
Okay so when u start u have to pick a class can I switch that later on for an example (to complete all the classes) e.g. switch to goad but start as arcanist
just noticed that DRG armor has more physical defense than any other DPS armor. is this basically just thematic and serves no real purpose?
you can switch back to any class you unlocked at any time yes
yeah you can play every job on a character
.
yes you can play all classes and jobs on one character
like miz said yeah
to switch classes and jobs you just equip their weapon (and soul crystal)
Tysm
it helps a bit, but it's not something that's a deal-maker
I have a laptop that has 2x4 gb ram and one is soldered on to the board unfortunately. But if I switch the one 4gb stick to an 8gb stick would I lose performance? Like lose dual channel? And it be slower then before?
I hope they just delete the starting classes, tbh.
but yeah it's mostly thematic and a small carry-over from 1.0/early 2.x
dont think they can delete the classes cus of arcanist
its a lil thorn in their side
also because of 1.0 players
would that kinda make DRG the best solo class when they have to tank hits? more damage than tanks and more armor than any other DPS
nah, they don't have enough sustain for solo'ing stuff that would need tanking hits
chocobo provides great sustain
best solo class goes to WAR or PLD
gonna take longer to kill stuff on a tank job though
if you mean solo A rank and higher, DPS can only outright delete them
I was thinking more along the lines of solo-unsyncing duties, but overworld is another factor.
In the early levels it helps DRG\LNC because you are the last job to get AoE
pro-long fight only tank can do
if we’re talking about solo instances tanks take the cake
if it’s overworld then any DPS is fine
after BLU of course
Oh wait you're serious, let me laugh even harder
aside from hunt marks there’s not much that would need anything other than a DPS with relatively good personal output
Reel in the sass, Kat.
DRG would be okay
Taking damage as a dps without good sustain is a death sentence, so after blu the best dps is probably rdm
Mch is good too since it can kite for days
Melee can't kite
i was just doing the boss FATEs the other day and was surprised at basically being at 100% HP as DRG and wondered if it's just the chocobo carry or the extra armor helped a bit
gear matter
If you're in an arr fate especially and even some hw they've been power crept to hell
stormblood
And that's before taking gear into account
leveling whites
oh yeah, companion stats, where can i see it or it bases of something?
Character > Companion is basically all you're getting.
I don't think chocobo scales off of gear at all
just your level
i searched on the internet and nobody can even answer a question if the +15% crit from chocobo skills multiplicative or additive
i suppose it doesnt matter much since you eventually grab all of them anyway
but the one thing i noticed that at least chocobo HP for sure scales with your level alone, very very noticeable when you cross expansion threshold levels
and your chocobo suddenly has 4 times more hp
without you equipping any new gear
companion stats squish as well right?
probably
everything should be squished, assuming nothing goes wrong
would be quite absurd if they didn't, they'd oneshot things
besides PVP probably
since the numbers there are already very tame/small
though there's always the small chance that x mechanic from y dungeon might not get squished or as much as it should be to reflect the post-squish stats
happened all the time in wow
devs eventually fix it
wow got like what... 3 squishes already?
it's going to be way more noticeable in this game though, since all the content is still regularly ran
I'm pretty sure WoW has had like 3 squishes within the last 2 or 3 expansions alone
but that's off-topic for the channel now.
They did say number is the same
Just small
So you wont see midare for 9999999 damage in ucob anymore
Or bozja 1 million whm misery memes
Probably idk
start of WoD (6.x), start of BfA (8.x), start of SL (9.x), SL also brought on level squish from max 120 lvl to 60 lvl
do we have, useful japanese sentences to use in aurum vale?
!faq jpguide
If there's none in here, then 
thank you 😄
is there another discord for ALL plugins/ other 3rd party tools besides the XIVLauncher discord???
The fuck do I do with tt cards I already have?
Sell it to mgp npc
Is there any way to get rid of this?
The camera angles get in the way so many times
aside from just putting the camera at a different angle? no
it's really only an issue in enclosed spaces, which are not really a thing in any situation where combat happens
Except every indoor dungeon
those have high enough ceilings for it to hardly matter
the only ones I can think of are the really early ones, like tam tara or something
Not the case whatsoever
yes I know, exceptions exist
It also gets in the way in stupid stuff like Kugane jumping puzzle and what not
but trust me in that those exceptions hardly matter
kugane jumping puzzle has nothing in the way if you zoom out far enough tbh
it's a free standing tower
I just find it weird there's no option to hide this entirely or at least make things that are in between the camera and your character transparent
But either way, there is nothing to just make objects close to the camera go invis. With a free camera like that there are bound to be issues and there is nothing you can do about it aside from just adjusting the camera so it isn't an issue anymore
This sounds easier than it is. Just because something is close to the camera doesn't mean it should be hidden to the player
I really don't encounter this issue as much as you do it seems
or if I do I just choose a different angle and be done with it
tbh I don't quite see why you don't just do that 
Maybe it's a configuration issue, dunno
Because after a while of it happening constantly you start looking for alternatives to "just move the camera"
Probably wide screen issues
That's what I was thinking...
constantly moving the camera is part of a tab target mmo either way
fair enough
the point is there is no easy solution here
Mine is literally two screens
move the camera or suffer, to use harsh words
Probably too huge
No, that's literally how it is
Not harsh, just pragmatic
I see I'll just have to "deal with it"
Yeah i guess you need to zoom it i guess
Yeah, zooming mitigates it a bit
guys where are the ishgard vendors?
general vendor location is close to the jeweled crozier aethernet point
unless you mean a specific vendor like poetics or centurio seals
poetics vendor is the blue bag icon on the map near the aetheryte
centurio seals vendor is in the forgotten knight inn
when you need/greed an item at the end of a dungeon, can you leave or do you need to stay to get them? it feels like I experienced both
leave mean pass
even if I already pressed "need"?
yes
damn
ill go to both, where is the equivalent of saphire avenue exchange ?
so I assume some people don't vote until the end so all others leave and they get items?
most people just genuinely don't vote cause they forget/don't care
Can't spend centurio seals in the starting cities
i have to stay 5mins in 24 man just to wait people roll
but yes, sometimes you get those annoying wait people
the ARR equivalent, being Allied seals, have the vendors for those at the grand company bases
it's ok to have people who don't vote if they leave
hmm i think i have only poetics seals actually
it's fine to remind people in chat
that is actually a thing
i wanna spend those first and then general gear
cuz my gear sucks for my lvl currently
poetics vendor in ishgard only unlocks once you complete the 3.0 msq
oh
I too love waiting for 180 second at end of dungeon
what is your current lvl and ilvl?
anyone know where i can get this? it says that you can buy it from an npc in the crystarium but its not there
just go to any of the 3 main cities and look for the blue bag icon on the map close to the aetheryte
buy the ironworks gear and weapon for poetics
get yourself 60 and do job quest
oh!
but yeah, you are also very close to just getting your 60 job gear
ohhh, so for namazu quests i guess if you're a gatherer, you collect the stuff that gets put into the boxes that crafters use to craft the quest items? was wondering why there are always boxes for every quest
are you still going through shadowbringers leveling story? IIRC those vendors gate their items based on story progress
is it here? am i at the correct place? i cant see it (foundation)
ah i see thx
that's ishgard, not one of the 3 main cities
Gated by msq progress
As was already said
again, the ishgard poetics vendor unlocks later
ironworks is lvl 50 gear
(but ilvl 120)
130
hmm
so uldah and which else ?
non-augmented is 120 :P
no
no
doesn't matter
Arr cities sell arr gear
they're near the main aetheryte
chances are you don't have enough poetics for a full set anyway
so just buy what you can, starting with the weapon
yep
this one is fine then ?
yes
buy from expensive to cheap
oh
(the more stats it has)
weapon -> chest/legs -> boots/gloves and so on
of course, that's assuming all your previous gear is the same ilvl
if one of your pieces is particularly low item level, upgrade that first
I say weapon > chest > replace your lowest level shit
yeah, the weapon just has a gigantic impact
getting a better one at any opportunity is a good thing
Everything scales off your weapon damage
As a tank your right side isn't as important because you need armor as much as anything else
DPS ?
any idea why it doesnt recommend me to wear the DRK sword ?
or the sync scales based on weapon ?
it doesn't look at items in your inventory
Did you put it in your armory chest?
it needs to be in your armoury
interesting hmm
my what? xd
your jewelry
Right side gear = accessories
oh!
No defense
i see
is this basically gambling? i struggle to see a use for this skill
lol so I'm lvl 37 already and haven't been able to get WHM unlocked
Doing all the stupid ESumiYan quests.
hello! i'm trying to get my first anima relic. Am currently a bit stuck on the crystal sands. What is the fastest way to get these? i've looked online and it said to get the blue gather's scrips but i can't work out how to get them
100% chances on almost everything wasn't always the case
Do you have a dol/doh above 50?
Grind yellow crafter scripts and trade them for blue crafter tokens at a Rowena vendor
okay so
can some1 gimme a tl;dr of how gear farming works ?
from what Ive heard here and if i even got it right, you farm 2 forms of seals and then to get the really good gear it's from a lot of raiding ?
At 80?
im 58 currently, but do tell about 80 as well
Before 80, just continue msq. You'll be given gear rewards from quests and dungeons
At the expansion level caps (50/6/7) you'll be given catch up gear from patch quests as well as the ability to buy top end gear from that expansion with poetics
thanks! i'll look into it
well that was certainly informative af! thanks a lot @shut panther

There is no way it should be this hard to get WHM unlocked.
Im using the 4k UI resolution and it made the IGN of me and all players huge. Is there a way to scale that down?
Is there any tricks to learning bluemage spells?
I've been hit and done a dungeon almost 19 times now for a spell but it's not learning
what npc should I get in an appartement?
it isnt
unlock cnj
level to 30
have the prequisite msq
do the class quests
100% learnchance if synced
do it sync with some friends/randoms so you have 100% chance to learn
Where are you buying this from?
PC download
venture to guess if he was mac or ps4 the "choice" would be easy
why does titan have multiple versions of his theme, and why is the one ingame much more muffled with quieter lyrics
the latter came first, whereas the remix was preformed live
last eden tier unlocks after 5.3 ?
yep
the ARR one is the original
the one used for UwU and E4S is the performed version, and thus the lyrics are a bit clearer
He didnt put his own birthdate?
no random
Sadly you need to remember those
is there a way to recover ?
Screwed. Iirc, will need to contact support
can you solo uwu titan
No
hell no you cannot
You cant solo any ultimate
Imagine unsync ultimates for the easy weaps. It wouldn't be so ultimate 
UWU is Ultima Weapon Ultimate
Basically Ultima Weapon fight but tuned up to like 13
yah
Solo? No
yeah that would do it
what's the mount bgm for the firmament mounts
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpICPVckkrg this probably

I do not own the video nor the audio.

it's the 'default' theme
rip
which the firmament mounts incidentally use
What does each npc do?
tryna figure out which one I should pick or skip
I only got an appartement so ill have to ditch 2
steward is your retainer so that's the big one to pick up
Personal choices would be Melder and Mender
I don't use materias
You will at a later level
like, the only time I tried use venturing was trying to make one of them go fish
turns out I was too low level fishing so it turned me down of using ventures :/
I just really dislike fishing
not a fun gathering job
i got FSH to 80 without ever fishing
Fsh can be 80 with leves and market board lmao
and money, which I just used on an appartement
im broke now
should i abandon and restart this quest? when im out of the trial, anyways
hey im trying to get 20,000 HQ items mining and gathering, any recommendation with rotations? it seems hard to find one, im full aesthete gear and max runes
i wouldn't do it now (gets easier the higher lvl you are), but you have plenty of room for quests
for what?
