Is there any class other than Rogue/Ninja that uses Stealth? I'm thinking of adding a second job to a character, I'm stuck between Ninja and Scholar
I know that's two questions technically but would love answers.
only ninja
Thanks
nope
how come the game refuses to acknowledge that i have a healing job
in the story
even if i switch to it and try to cast heals on injured NPCs, they're not targetable
does having higher resistance rank makes you stronger in DR?
k
Odin's mount
in which menu do you queue for eureka or bozja because I can't find it
oh
eureka is in kugane, at pier 1
bozja is in gangos, which you can get to thru the doman enclave
not until 25, then mettle can be used to buff your stats
hey, new player here! my inventory is starting to become too full so i need to start getting rid of stuff. The problem is that I have no idea whats valuable and what i can sell without worries. is there a general rule of thumb on what stuff is low value and can be sold? is the market sell price a good indicator for example? or are there items that sell for 1 Gil but are actually really rare and valuable for crafting?
im on my first character and havent delved into crafting at all yet, and dont want to for the foreseeable future
it has "shop selling price" on the tooltip, you can safely get rid of it
as its on a vendor somewhere
go to your retainers and try listing stuff for sale, there's a button that says 'compare prices'
if it's 1gil or something and you don't need it, vendor it
and yeah if it has a very cheap shop selling price (not sell price), then it's safe to get rid of it too
okay, many items seem to have "shop selling price: none" and "sells for 1 gil", that means i should check the price at retainers first?
that, or on the internet
oh nice, thx
low level stuff is rarely expensive
but there are few standouts that continue to be okayish in price
because they're used in higher level recipes
yea thats my "fear" which keeps me from just vendoring all that stuff
im sure 99% of stuff i gathered so far is useless
but the 1% !
you can right click an item and check 'search for recipes using this item'
if there are no high level recipes, it's probably trash
tried, usually i dont see any recipies
probably because i havent unlocked anything crafted related yet?!
if you don't see any recipes, that means there aren't any
you should be able to see them without crafters unlocked?
what's the item in question
oh i see
only the search by crafting method discrimnates by your ability to craft it
search by recipe using shows everything always
note that sometimes low level items are used to craft intermediary items
that are later used in higher recipes
The effort in figuring out what has value is more than any more level item will be worth
speaking of, how important is crafting for endgame? is the best gear crafted or do i acquire it from dungeons or sth?
i find it fun to know and figure out things
yea its fun but also overwhelming for someone who has never touched any MMO and has 0 clue of anything ๐
crafted endgame gear basically operates as "best week 1/2 gear"
When a raid patch releases, crafting items are the best items available immediately, to be slowly replaced by drops from that Patch's Savage raid
it's the easiest/fastest method to get endgame gear for a new raid tier, but gets replaced by the capped tomestone gear and savage raid gear
crafted gear tends to be pretty good overall tho, but you never NEED to craft
It's also tradable, so crafting it yourself is unneeded
oh okay
whats the price for high end crafted gear usually? round about
just to get a general idea of "wealth" in this game
in the first few weeks an entire set can easily be over 2-3m
Depend on your server economy
nowadays its more like 700k for a full set
doing MSQ gives you like 3 mil to play around with
after a tier is out long enough, it usually drops so most pieces sit around 50k-100k per item depending on server economy and materials
okay so, for me right now, i should probably just do MSQ and once im done buy a good "endgame set" ?
im lvl 54, for reference
depending on how long it takes you to hit 80, you're probably better off not buying Exarchic gear (the current endgame crafted set)
Lvl 80
Is there an orchestrion roll for the instrumental version of Dragonsong?
The best way to gear while leveling your first job is just to continue msq
Pretty sure not, if you mean the exact song without lyrics

I forget the place where you first summon Hresvalgr in HW, it had a version of Dragonsong that played at the area sans vocals
heyo, does someone know if the spawn rate of silver/golden chests from bunnies in hydatos is bigger than the one in pyros?
Contention is the name of the song that plays in Zenith
and it does have an orchestrion
same rate, from my personal experience.
THAT'S IT! Thank you.
can buy it with poetics from hismena in idyllshire or the sundry vendor in ishgard
ok, thanks. time to go to the marketboard then ๐ญ

Hey guys, my partner and I got married in game yesterday. My partner they bought the gold package and I had the free package, but at the end of the ceremony we both received the rings but they didn't get the chocobo whistle. Are we missing something?
you had the free package
so the game defaults to the lowest package
free doesn't come with the mount
Question, Im a level 47 blm. Is there any reason to have B2 when Freeze does double potency and is actually on the enemy rather than yourself?
pretty much once you get freeze you can ignore b2
Ok thats what I thought
hey about recurite friend i give my friend the code but he didn't get anything i just got 5 gold feather
shouldent he get white feather
also can we recruite each other and all of us get the rewards ?
Oh, nvm, I didn't see that Kael have helped you
provided you haven't paid for a sub yet, you can recruit each other yes
So you're telling me you have to buy the mount package twice?
That's dumb
The mount is part of the gold/plat
there is 1 food that gives 4% but it was a promo item
Yes but I assumed that since you paid for your package, it would reduce the ceremony style and everything but at the very least you'd get the mount. But I see where I'm wrong even though I think this system is annoying that forces both parties to pay for it even though one person may already have the mount beforehand.
about 15 seconds
That's very long
technically its like, 17 but those last two seconds make it impossible to continue a combo after 15
unless you're on MNK or NIN
How does re marrying work then? Since we need to both buy gold to get them a mount.
Divorce first?
You know how you can do /hud hotbar1 on/off is it possible to do that with the job gauge like whats the command to toggle it?
no, you can't toggle the job gauge off
you shouldnt
if a big job gauge bothers you, try switching to the simple version, it's less obtrusive

what's valor in bozja
how to get padjali rapier weapon tix?
When is the best time to do Ruby Doomsday?(lorewise) I feel guilt tripped
exchange 30/30 aetherpool for 3 aether pommels, whcih you then use to get the padjali weapon
Oh where to farm that mat @_@
this DR speedrun party is asking for valor
what's that
palace of the dead
Why do people need group on a mark S? It gives more loot or something?
in which teleport can go to this places 
yes, and being in a party makes it easier for you to get maximum rewards
deep dungeon you access from quarrymill
I see thx
here?
no
you have to farm aetherpool for your weapon and armour
which you then exchange for the grip

So when people say LFG they just want it for that hunt and not LF a group train?
I see ill just invite people and leave to them after then xD
Hello, I wanna ask if a 30 second-ish load time between teleports is "normal"? The people that I know have way shorter load times, like around 5 seconds. There are also abnormal load times especially when I queue into praetorium where the game literally takes like a whole 2 or more minutes before I can watch the initial cutscene.
what drive is your game installed on
HDD
if it's a 5400RPM one or slower: yeah it would definitely take longer
its also dependent on your specs as well
My friend have it installed on HDD too but he's running his OS on SSD, so I'm not sure if that's the main cause as well
could be a 7200RPM HDD
Hmmmm ok, I'll go check if that's the case. Thanks!
Permanent bozja buffs you can acquire with mettle after r25
How do I hot bar enough abilities for ninja? I watched a ninja skills video and Im gonna have way too many abilities soon
Another question about BLM, what is the point of Thunder 2 when Thunder 3 exists? T3 does more potency, procs more often, and lasts longer, lvl 48 if that matters
use numbers 1 to 4, middle mouse button, mouse 4 and 5 if you have them, then use QERTFGV buttons, and all of these also with shift and control
you will have more than enough for any amount of abilities
and all easily reachable
thunder 2 is AoE
to figure out when you'd use it do number of enemies x potency and if it's more than thunder 3 use it
that's basically how you decide when to use aoe or not really
DW, thunder 2 does feel pretty weak compared to 3, it'll be eventually upgraded to 4 and that feels a lot better
significantly so
Cool
Yeah, BLM leveling is very whacky
BLM is very weird indeed
(why don't they promote your thunder 1 and 2 to 3 and 4 together is beyond me)
which floor can obtain Aetherpool Grip @@?
you need 3 grips for one weapon
Oh
You aether pool armor and weapon go from say 29/15 to 19/5 for one grip
10 of both
You need 3 to make the padjali base weapon
6 + that weapon to make kinnda
10 grips to make the hoh weapons
Empyrean iirc
@outer plaza that make sense?
beside dungeons (queues are too long outside of healer) and potd 51-60 (don't have it)
what's other good method to exp?
How hard are unreal trials ?
If you're stupid lazy clearing out all your side quests
They're extremes
But not gonna say that's efficient
extremes without item level cheese
An extreme at min ilevel
And without power creep
So unreal levi is the same fight as extreme levi ?
So think ShB extreme at min ilevel
Yes
yes
for a suggestion better go deeper only wetn for exchange right?
Literally same mechanics
okay thanks
They're literally old extremes remade to work at level 80
Running 51-100 is v good for gaining aetherpool
Playing old ex at 80 let you use all your skills
if you want to aetherpool farm I'd recommend staying about 60/60 so you can farm 51-60 more easily
Oh so thats 2 way to get aetherpool
Either exchange outsite the dungeon or gain inside the dungeon 60/60 to farm it
No
no you can only get aetherpool in POTD
Sorry i have question
as soon as endwalker release there gonna be datacenter visit right?
You can't get aetherpool outside of the dungeon
No
It got delayed
Good Evening, I want to ask, what should i do with my gil as a free trial player? My gil is curremtly capped.
DC visit has been delayed
Ya I mean to exchange aetherpool from here
it probably won't come until 6.1 now
they'll post the live letter summary to the forums in a week or two
Alright thanks for the answer
whats another indicator that the house can be purchased? aside from pressing purchase and seeing if its ready
For airships go to the elevator sw of the adventurer place with the inn
Imma assume aerodrome is French for airship landing or similar
No
@leaden ginkgo this door icon
guys whats side quest are worth doing etc
do i just do all of them?
what blue use to provoke
Frogs legs
thx
why when i click on the quest for the map pop up, it now show thw world map instead of the quest location immediately
how do I fix this
Just click on map and it'll show zone map instead
it used to show the location immediately
Don't think there's a way to change it from world view vs zone
Just if you're in same zone/area I think?
so weird
is there a condition for it to cast Frog leg?
is there a skip only for stormblood? i already finish realm and heavensward and i spoiled myself on YT the story of stormblood when i was still in free trial
how do i make control and alt my side mouse buttons?
nope
Do people typically farm Gaganaskin maps or Gazelleskin maps?
Gamer software
Such as Logitech or razer
gagana, no. Gazelle, maybe
Alright, thanks
best to check the price of the map and see how often it sells
like compare to Dragonskin and Zonureskin
maybe peisteskin too
I know there's typically a prefered map so far. Like boarskin and dragonskin
Question on Heavensward Bard: when they used a song to get the ability to cast their weaponskill like a spell, what's the cast time? And are all skills affected?
all GCD skills had it, and it was like ASTs Malefic spell
so about a 1.5s cast time
So, all weaponskills including AOE
And since it is 1.5s cast, and your GCD is about 2.3-2.4, so you can single weave?
yep
trying to get my brother back in ff14 free trial
when downloading client it asks him for a registry code
Noted, thank you
version PC
!faq freetrial
they downloaded the regular launcher
Oh, I forgot, any damage boost?
they need this one
like 20 or 30%, but thats because it disabled your auto-attack
Oh, and ohhhh
to make up for the loss of auto-attack damage
Thanks
Guys where do i find guilds in game already lvl 52 and would like to be part of a guild
What's that mark?
you're already part of the adventurers guild
Synced
In this case, item level sync
It's synced based on your current level
!faq communityfinder
also just asking in game or looking in the party finder
Thanks gonna try it
I thought syncing only was for duties, not just wearing things randomly?
The preorder earrings are special
They're level 1 but item level 430*
*but synced to your current level
They're one of the few items in the game to do so
I see, up till 80 they do this, or?
Cool,. ty
Guys at lvl 50 i got quest to get legendary weapon (purple) but IT doesnt seems to be very good as i can see quest rewaed is IT worth doing?
for a usable weapon no
rarities are meaningless in this game
you're better off just getting the Ironworks weapon and using that until HW
I wouldn't recommend trying to do the ARR zodiac weapon if you're on the free trial
b/c half the reason it's bearable is because of the marketboard
The color on the gears are relative rarity compared to gears of the same item level
Gears of the same item level will have the same primary stat, this is not tied to their rarity at all (exception: ||crafted gears has normal quality and high quality variations, only high quality crafted gears have the correct stat||)
you're still better off just using the ironworks weapon
Yeah, ironwork weapon is much much easier to get
Where do i get this ironwork wewpon
Grinding relic for stats is pretty eh even when they are current. Not to mention that Zodiac has been obsolete for 3 expansions
!faq poetics
It is against tos, but they won't enforce it
But they will enforce against harassment toward other players
It's against the ToS, you can use them but don't talk about them in game.
How far in Eureka do I need to be to be able to dye the lv 70 job gear?
Does every msq after the ultimate weapon give low exp?
Even the expansions?
No
essentially complete anemos
Back then they don't give exp
the expansions will give normal exp again
you're on the part of the msq that was release during the time between ARR launch and HW launch
also known as "post arr"
Oh
anemos is like the first area of it right?
you didn't get ANY exp at level 50 because that was the level cap, the story doesn't end when you hit level 50
So
ARR
ARR post quest
Heavensward
HW Post quest
yes
thank you!
So the expansions will also have their own post msq, that gives low exp as they were released in similar situations
Ah, I understand now, thank you
yes basicly the xp you get from these patches is jsut a bonus
The dungeons work the same too btw
(versy useful if you want too lvl a second class)
Wdym
Relatively lower amount of exp for lvl 50 dungeons (the endgame dungeon for ARR)
a lvl 50 dungeon gives less xp thena lvl 47 dungeon
Then normal again when you hit lvl 51 dungeon (first dungeon in Heavensward)
because it ends in a 0
thats why these dungeons have there own roulette
Yeah, before this, you should get anywhere between one third to one half worth of level from your dungeons
Now it is probably around one fifth or worse
once you hit level cap, you exchange the EXP reward for tomestones
so like if you lvl another charcter
you absicly jsut skip lvl x0 dungeons
this also applies to roulettes, mostly
as at level cap, you exchange your EXP reward for current tier tomestones
Oh thatโs cool
Thank you
50, 60, 70 to be specific
Not 20/30/40 (if there are dungeons on these exact levels)
oh yes good point
And 80 when Endwalker is released and increase the cap to level 90, making Shadowbringers level 80 endgame dungeons functionally the same as lvl 50/60/70 dungeons
Hi, I see some people having extra "titles" next to their names, I have 1 for the free company as well but when I go into a dungeon for example it disappears, but there are some people that still have text next to their names in the dungeons, are those also compnaies?
Those are not free company titles
They are titles you can earn and put on your characters
hi sorry im not sure what to do in eureka pyros, i hit lvl50 but there's no quest or anything
By completing various quests and achievements
aaah, thank you:)
Can I equip 2 glamour plates in 1 macro?

i need to be 56/56? on the logos thing
i read somewhere, when you reach rank25 in bozjan you can additional stats in you character? where do i unlock it?
does magia do anything when you first unlock it? because looking at a eureka guide video, their magia thing looks different from mine
Mettle Proofs & Rays
Once you have completed the Dalriada for the first time, upon returning to Zadnor you will be able to complete a quest that will unlock the ability to exchange 20,000,000 Mettle for 3 Proofs of Mettle.
Proofs of Mettle can be exchanged for the following permanent passive buffs inside Save The Queen content:
Ray of Fortitude (+5% max HP per stack, 10 stacks)
Ray of Valor (+3% damage per stack, 10 stacks)
Ray of Succor (+10% healing per stack, 10 stacks. Only affects actions with Healing Potency. Life drains like Beast are exempt)
@hot eaglethanks
How do I get access to the mission to get to Storm Captain?
my squadron is at lvl 60 but I can't seem to see it
it's an Ability, which means it's off GCD, so you can cram more damage in. also it does twice the damage per beast gauge unit than the 50 gauge dump
what materia should i focus on for my paladin at max level and 505+ item level
you must also do 5 unique command missions
You can find BiS and meld priorities (as well as the preferable GCD tiers) in the Balance discord
!faq balance
if you buy the base game, can you level past 60?
no
ah ok
base game is just the free trial with limits removed
if you want to go past 60, you need shadowbringers
alright cool, thanks

yo, a friend of mine randomly started getting tose directx crashes of death, we searched for fixes on reddit and more but coudnt find anything that worked. can someone help or at least know someone who can? the game worked fine up until now
what does "completing eureka" even mean, getting every weapon, every mount, every armor, everything?
allrdy tried to update your graphic card tribers or rollback the update if it had 1 and only crashed since the update could also do a fresh install of directx sadl with how windows sometimes work maybe an update from them messed stuff up
we uptated the tribers, made a fresh directx install and more, but what do you mean with rollback the update tho?
i dont get what that means
Anyone tracking ixion mount
need a fantasia to change skintones/color
If you mean hairstyles and hair colours and some facial features like tattoos and facepaint, there's a quest in I believe Limsa? "Beauty is only scalp deep"
If you want to change more than that (like your race, skin colour and other features) you'll have to use a Fantasia
Ah
!faq glamour
'What is Glamour and how do I unlock it?'
Glamour is the process of changing an equipment's look into a different item with the use of Glamour Prisms. You can unlock the ability to glamour by doing the level 15 quests 'If I Had a Glamour' in Vesper Bay, West Thanalan. Although not required, you can unlock the ability to dye gear with the nearby quest 'Color Your World'. You can get the Orange Juice needed by talking to the nearby Merchant & Mender. Items used for glamouring are not lost upon use.
'How do I glamour? Where do I get more Prisms?'
Glamouring is done by right-clicking (Square or X on controllers) on the equipment you want to glamour and choosing the option 'Cast Glamour'. After clicking this you choose the item you want the appearance on the right half of the menu that opened up. You can get more Glamour Prisms by either crafting them after completing the quest 'Absolutely Glamourous', buying them from your Grand Company Quartermaster, or buying them from the marketboard.
Hey folks, I'm new at the game and it seems like I purchased FFXIV complete edition on the EU square enix website, when I'm playing on Aether in NA, does this mean the code will not work?
I'm not sure how to check
Go to mogstation
Mogstation > square Enix account > account info
yes, it says US
Then it would not work
Thems the breaks
So I donโt know what I did my character wonโt move with WASD anymore?
Whats the easiest way to farm crafters scrip at level 60
did you change your keybind?
No I was walking to a quest I took a drink of water must have clicked something during moving because he just stops in place and now I can only move the camera
try tele to other place and just for sure, open menu>keybind>check what your wasd currently bind to what action

look at kupo-bot-spam, i just use it there

!faq altlvlguide @leaden ginkgo
or where do i start
Thank you
Just did it and itโs still not working? I even tried closing the game?
Pressing W does nothing at all?
Nope
It changes the way the cameras looking
Like it tips it up instead of me going forward
๐ค
I just picked up DNC so tell me if im comboing wrong. So if standard step is up I use it, if single target do cascade, if reverse cascade comes up do that then fan dance, then proceed to finish combo with fountain and fountain fall and repeat. If AOE do windmill into rising windmill and fan dance 2 if up, and then finish combo with blade shower and if its up bloodshower?
Literally just press thr glowing button and dance on Cooldown
Im really not sure how I missed up my characters movement
It seems very easy
Cause it is
Just very RNG
I just picked it up like 5 minutes ago and I think I got it down. I can see why people like it cause its pretty fun
Does it have anything here?
Also make sure you're on the correct language keyboard
Since it could be changed with Win + Spacebar
If you have WASD bind correctly
is it just me or does the overheat ability weaving portion of MCH rotation feel like it does very little damage? along with Wildfire too, they pale in comparison to Drill and even the basic 1-2-3 combo. I guess wildfire happens at the same time so it's okay, but the overheat spam just feels so anemic
Heat Blast does have avg potency
it's the same potency as the first step of the 1-2-3 combo
Thereโs stuff binded there but not wasd
Heatblast also reduces to CD of your oGCDs
Its really not
And your movement is set to?
You press Ricochet and Gauss Round in between
i know that
Hello, Whats the cheapest way to reach 520? i wanna try my new class in higher end content?
Well it isnt as fancy as the upgraded 1-2-3
pretend each gauss/riccochet is part of the gcd that comes before it
Aug Exarchic or Nier 3
WASD
@vestal warreni been turning my nier raids to GC, feelsbad man
Drill just feels so amazing to press, it spoiled me
so it takes 2 gcd to beat a single drill shot, but those 2 gcd only take 3 seconds to come out
If you been doing your Revelation tome
Buy Cryptlurker
You can then do nier and upgrade to 530
cause2x heat blast + gaus + ricochet is (220 + 150) * 2... 740
Do you by any chance have a keyboard that lets you swap wasd with arrow keys as a function? :P
Huh thatโs a thing?
Used to have a keyboard like that
I mean itโs a gaming keyboard but I donโt think it has that function
do your arrow keys move the character?
IT DOES
LOL
Remember to save a smooth brain spout like me on the future
Cheers
Ur amazing ๐
Think I lost my Gunbreaker starting arm. Where can I buy a new one? Can't even find the name for it ๐ฆ
The market board
Just click gun breaker
It will pick the highest one available to you
Oh it's one of those that can't be bought in shops, fun. xd
the starting weapon for GNB is a craftable weapon
I only have a Culinarian, not sure I can craft ANY gear
Why, get crafting
well
Yes and no
Leatherworker can make armor, and sometimes they also make accessories
Goldsmith makes accessories, sometimes it's woodworker instead
And alchemist makes weapons for Summoner and Scholar
It's a mixed bad
which is why if you want to get into crafting, you kinda have to go all crafters
Culinarian is the only one that's relatively standalone
It relies in gatherers instead
Damn that's a complicated thing to keep track of. I only did CUL cause I happened to have the weapon ready and needed to unlock beast tribes really.
It's honestly, not that bad
Not really
Still, won't be making any weapons with CUL, right?
Hmmm, I wonder
Unless you can cook up a Stainless Steel Gunfish, no
Wiki says Blacksmith for weapon
Some* weapons
Oh well, market board it is xd
Different crafters make different stuff for jobs
but Blacksmith does make gunblades iirc
But you'd have to level it to like 55 i think?
is dps the fastest q for nier raids ?
61
kinda yeah, dps often player in need in AR roulette
DPS have relatively good queues for alliance raids, yes
well, 61 is the recipe level, so yeah you get it a bit earlier
yeah
armorer can make 73 stuff but is only 68
I'll just get shire if you lost it tbh ๐
yeah
you can get a shire gunblade from Idyllshire
it'll cost you some poetics (600 iirc) but it's gonna be better than the starter one
Oh I didn't even know there were alternatives to the starting weapon
Thought only 1 at 60, then upwards.
Hmm what's the fastest way to get Poetics? I've not boethered with them and just today wasted most on my RDM to gear it.... Just my luck.
!faq poetics
daily msq roulette
and yeah, once daily MSQ roulette will net you 600 most likely
Ah cool, might as well run it with said RDM then ๐ Thanks!
Oh btw, it's rolling over to 17:00 (my time) when reset is. I assume it counts daily from when I enter, not when I queue, right?
If I enter potd as a level 1 lancer and get to level 10 would I come out as level 10?
nope
no, potd leveling is separate
when you clear, you can get in 20 min before reset but clear it 1 min after reset counts for the new day
The xp is seperate
Good to know, thanks
The level inside POTD is separate from your level outside of POTD (Says so when you enter)
Upon clearing a set of 10 floors and killing the boss (1-10 for example), you will be granted XP outside of potd
is there a particular place i can group up for treasure maps?
party finder has a dedicated category for it
quick question as Paladin to farm relic 535 ( sword and shield) do i have to farm double?
like instaed of 20-20-20 memory i need to farm 40-40-40?
no
You get 2 of them in 1 package
No
It would be stupid if you did
i did SMN relic, but since am not PLD main, i was a bit confused xD
if you've done 40 you can use them for another wapon i guess
Hi guys,
Just finished Shadowbringers and it was amazing! Now that I've unlocked the tomestone exchange, I was wondering if it was worth grinding for augmented crypt gear. Or is it not worth it as endwalker will make it obsolete soon?
PLDs donโt get shafted for having an offhand
still help you level for EW
Aug Crypt are the current bis along with raid gears
You dont need best is slot gears except for high end raiding imo

I see! Thanks for the info ๐
Hi everyone.
how do i buy the game?, i play thru steam.
the complete edition only include the base game and shadowbringers.
do i buy that? and endwalker separately? i need to pay more for the subscription on top of that or it come it whit a subscription?
!faq buy
Yo, when my friend activates my friendcode, can I also his? Sorry for the dumb question, new here
If you wait until endwalker release, the complete edition will include endwalker at the same price
its bundled on launch?
Yes
ok ty ty
i don't need to buy the past expansions? just the latest one?
You literally canโt buy them separately once new thing is out
Make sure you have starter edition tho
I'm sure this is obvious but I pre-ordered endwalker on PC, but I wanna play on the PS4, will I need to preorder endwalker for PS4 to use the earrings?
All platform are separate
Makes sense, sigh
that is very niche problem
Yeah it's not a huge deal, the earrings arent particularly useful
I can still play nbd
For positional is it based on when you press the button or where you are when the animation finishes
press
press
It also works like boss aoe
snapshot apply to everyone including the enemy
it snapshot the position and skill when you press it
Which is also kinda dumb in the in-game battle log
Like this
Even tho it says the buff expired
But the the burst strike pressed before still get the buff
Is the best way to level alt jobs by jumping straight into potd or would you recommend dungeons first then wait till level 50 for potd
get a friend to boost you to 20
Alright, thanks!
Do squadron dungeon if you're dps
For tank healer you can do leveling roulette for some nice gil as well since queue are fast
Whatโs squadron dungeon
When you get high enough rank in the grand company
You unlock a squadron which is a team of npc you can send out to do missions
Or go into some dungeons with them
Oh cool, I havenโt even done grand company quests yet
Just use the company seal you have for promotion
Iirc at 2nd lieutenant it unlock squadron
If you dont have it yet then yeah do potd
Wasnโt aware you could do that
is it really beyond hope please i only forgot for 2 days
is there magic power or something
It's dead
you have to tend them every 48 hours or they die
so uh
you neglected it for more than that
different plants have different wilt times
this is so brutal, lmao
can me and my friend use our recruite friend code to each other and both of us gets the rewards ?
yeah
For ACT is there a way for it to automatically disappear out of combat and reappear during combat or no?
standby time might do the trick
Im gettin soon relic blade's rod for bom, which stats should I go for-
blm
max spell speed?
Follow your stat priority
It's cause I have this damage tracker thing, but it's showing it while out of combat too. I could do it manually with a hotkey but I forget alot of time though so it'll be nice if there was a way to make it automatic I thought. That's why
If you need more speed for your build theb put speed in
How do I do that?
is it smartvto mqx spell speed for everything cause my castings
are slow af xd
I forgot where it is which is why I didnt say
is it possible to copy your character settings to a new char on a different data center?
Then get the other stats

are there similar comparisons for SB and ShB relics? the author of these only made these two as far as i can find
Well ok
under overlay
Under Overlay settings? Any idea on how to use that to make it work for damage tracker? Or no? Never used that one before.
with the duties you can use npc's for, is it all oir nothing ? meaning can i have my buddy join and fill out the other 2 spots ?
like i do not know if it exists in 1 picutre
but normally you can find them for single pieces
aint your damage tracker equal to your overlay?
looking for single pictures is so much work though
It is in OverlayPlugin.dll if that's what you mean. Yea
hey im on stormblood and super broke on gil, how do I start making gil?
oh, i mean go to the settings via your overlay in game edit: there's a setting button for your in-game damage tracker
Crystal tower spoiler question ||is there any armor that looks like the Allagan Empire Clone's armor? the Green ones||
it's called High Allagan
Oh that. Yea. There is one, I used that to make it look cooler looking too. But I didn't found anything related to automatic disable and enable though, unless I missed it. Idk :(
thank you!
you can obtain them from The Second Coil of Bahamut raids in ARR or craft your own dyeable ones (or buy them via Market Board)
maybe you can try setting the standby time to the minimum
is there any for casters?
is that what you're looking for?
click Shared models to see the replica craftable
looks like it, thank you!
Retainers are only on one char, or are they shared across an account?
does sprint and peloton stack?
no
peloton is +20%, sprint is +30%
only the highest applies
so you sort of waste sprint when peloton is active
Oh that. I assuming it's like doesn't show any damage when not in combat for that amount of time. But even than it'll still say something like "Please start combat" at the top or something, with 3 dot setting just next to it. Those stays, it doesn't disappear. Thank you though :3
peloton has 100% uptime out of combat
anyone know of a good level 60 cooking rotation
i see, good luck my dude
Thank you :3
I haven't unlocked a job that has peloton up to now, so I have no idea how it works
It's 10% speed for out of combat
it doesn't work if you're in combat and stops working when you generate any enmity

i'm pretty sure it's 20%
10%
peloton: 120%
Hey yโall. Obv patch content provides important context for the next expansion, but how long does the patch quests between stormblood and shadowbringers last compared to others?
I remember post ARR felt waaaay too long
Do you guys know how much exp a level job would receive from floor 10 of potd or would it receive the same amount of exp as a level 56 pld which was roughly 390k exp with preferred
gil guide?
Cant believe im broke while on free trial purchasing lvl 60 gear 
It scales based on your level and thr floor set you do
So there is a piece of glam I want to farm unsyc from a dungeon, can I just kill the first boss and leave or the piece may only drop from the last chest or something like that ?
Oh ok
Same as post heavensward length
Post expansion content is like 40 quests give or take
When climbing potd, If I get to floor 51-60 and change class to lancer would I have to restart !
?*
No
Good
If you're on free trial you're capped at 300k gil anyway, just doing msq will get you more than that
i think all chests in the dungeon drop the same stuff and the last boss drops an extra item from those chests directly into your inventory
And buy the poetics gear at 60, not npc ๐ค
Thx, I'll try farming only the first
ight
anyone have a level 60 culinary rotation?
wait wha
I recently got the "tank" summon for Arcanist class. I am having a hard time figuring out how to increase the aggro on the summon though. i.e. i want the enemy to attack my summon, not me. What am i missing? I tried using the "sic" command and the creature just started attacking me.
it's not a tank anymore
Pets can't tank
it cannot hold aggro
It gives you a shield via egi assault
wtf, that is very misleading the quest text made it sound like it could tank for you
Cause it used to
but that explains it
Not anymore
it used to be a tank, but people cheesed bosses with it, so they made arcanist pets have no health and no aggro table
its garbage and very very niche and should not be used except if you're doing korean TEA one tank challenge
Titan egi tanking was literally shit
And a meme
If it held aggro from you then you're literally afk
The shield is infinitely more useful
I mean technically there's no stopping me from doing side content however I want but when should I complete Hildibrand and my crafting/gathering stuff?
ok great thanks for the info, I am a new player trying to get the hang of everything
ok so
what do I do exactly to level up with floor 51-60 of potd?
I know 6.0 will change gathering so I'm definitely going to do it
owo
Delete the file and keep rerunning the floor
the shield is handy, but if you're doing content in which you find yourself requiring it, you should probably switch to a different job for better self-sustan instead
solo or matched?
Matched
anyway, titan-egi is probably getting axed in endwalker since they're redoing the entire job with summoning full size primals instead
It's still there for glamour reasons
But the pet doesn't seem to do anything outside of commands
i dont understand why they didn't show carbuncle auto-attacking in the liveletter
made me think it cannot anymore
Cause it doesn't
then what is its purpose
There's still skills that it executes
The shield and Devotion
Plus it's required to be out for the summons
Should I be using Blizzard 2 when I have Freeze?
hey guys, I am trying to catch the desert catfish for the fishing quest, and I am using sand leech at Sagolii dunes, but am catching everything except it... all the first are 2 !! and no 1 !... am I doing something wrong? have caught like 30 other fish
Is there any reason to use Blizzard 2?
no, blizzard 2 is completely obsolete once you have freeze
Fishing is RNG
you will only use it in lower sync content when you dont have access to freeze
supposedly blizzard 2 is getting replaced with hi-blizzard in endwalker on some higher level, so i guess that button will be useful again
Freeze doesn't just replace Blizzard 2
Like they should just get rid of that button
Freeze used to act differentlu
I remember
I leveled BLM but I don't play it
You used to be able to drop it
Did it cause bind?
Idr
Yes
thanks, i finally caught it! ๐
Well, Sleep is mitigation
For Dragoon which one should I pick? Lol XD
If I'm in a zone
like Eureka or something
Panta
And I accidentally pull more than I want
pankratist
Panta is the dps stuff
custodian is supposed to be tank gear
custodian is for tank
Thank you :D
Sleep is AOE so it's kinda useful
but both are fine
i saved my group in a dungeon the other day
when the tank died and i used sleep
so the healer had time to res and heal up the tank
I just got a weird error, ff14 is saying I cant use ctrl-` as a keybind
but Ive been using it for years
I have gotten my Exarchic gear and was wondering what materia to slot into it? I am a Summoner for reference.
Where do you do that exactly?
See pins
I think I get it, so I also have to go and buy the Exarchic weapons to get that item to upgrade the armors?
Trading any piece of exarchic gives you the exact amount of certificates to upgrade that piece of exarchic
Weapons cost 48 certs but give 48 when traded in
I see, so I guess I have to go and make another set of Exarchic caster gear, turn it into certificates, and then upgrade the original exarchic caster gear I had
can entry sub tier be purchased for ever or is it just once when u buy the game ?
forever
unless you want to make 2 character on same server
or more than 8 character
keep in mind you cant use game time card with entry afaik
Huh, well I guess that makes sense in a way. But I'll just look in game and see if I am thinking of it rightly
what manual gives you exp in cooking
player level 60 is the cap for potd
also, I think people that said leveling with POTD are caping
I only got a poor 1 level at level 33
that sounds about right
????
Xp scales on your level
daily roulettes are still the fastest
Potd is only good if your ques are 15mins plus
You get exp by beating 10 floors
ugh
Otherwise dungeons are faster for everyone
nah bro, im staying on dungeons to level up, I got too hyped up for nothing
dungeon is the fastest exp gain
No manual gives you XP. There's XP boosters which are the crafting ones for CUL.
I honestly believed id get 5-8 levels
its going to be similar situation with dungeons
in that eventually its going to take like 2-3 runs per dungeon to get 1 lvl
higher level you are, the more exp you need, the more runs it takes
do you know whats the name of the manual
no source of xp in the game is going to give you 5-8 levels
doubt
every dungeon run I did at level 40
gave me
a level
yeah it will take 3 dungeon run for lvl 70 +
Iโd probably listen to kael
because i've leveled all jobs to 80 thru dungeons
They know things
and it eventually it takes 2-3 runs per level
dungeons and potd work effectively the same way
in that low levels don't take as many runs to get levels
because you have less exp required
at that point you just do daily roullete
unless you have some reason to lvl all the job
higher levels take more runs because you have higher exp requirements
even with expansion pre order?
yes
Yes
even with pre-order earrings
it is going to still take several runs at higher levels
Even with all the xp buffs you can get
cause I preordered ew so like, I only have up to level 60, but I get that sweet +30% exp
you know, leveling up far later doesnt worry me
since MSQ will level up
the job im doing msq with
like, rn im leveling up a palladin to do HW
I did ARR with bard
Preorder earring doesnโt work for Potd, so like
and post ARR with scholar
Whats the point of 'Engagement' ?
if displacement would get you killed, engagement is used instead
you don't do a backstep
in endwalker both will be the same potency
though, come ew its potency will be the same as displacement
so when ew arrives there will be no real reason to use displacement save for actual movement
they still going to share a cooldown tho?
yes
lolz
you usually don't want to hang around in melee as a caster, so you can ignore the melee mechanics
Hello. Do different fishing lure tiers make a difference which fish you get or should I just use the highest tier lure that I can?
yeah I figured I would just keep it off my bar. Either use displacement for movement + damage or save it until you need it
there's nothing you should keep off your bar as a rdm.
yes, different fish want different bait
plus if it's anything like wow, boss abilities that target only ranged characters are going to target you even if you're in melee and that's a bad time for everybody
so highest level isn't always the ideal choice
Okay, I knew it was the case for baits but wasn't sure for lures.

I think in EW displacement will just get downgraded to same potency as Engagement?
Feels a bit sad
There's a few, all labelled as an "engineering Manual" of some sort. 2 of them are from Scrip vendors for yellow scrips (level 50 and level 70 menus) and 2 from your Grand Company under the Material tab.
as I said
I liked RDM being forced to jump off the platform
i too like e9s
But yeah that's just boomer love for Cleric Stance
HOW DARE YOU INSULT CLERIC STANCE IN ANY WAY WHATSOEVER
BACK IN MY DAY WE HAD CLERIC STANCE AND WE LOVE IT!

we had more than 3 DPS skill stoo
not the channel for it
fair
Yeah
thank you lunder

wtf my beast tribe allowances didnt reset
same
Cause you had a beast tribe quest from the previous day still accepted
you didn't finish your quest from a previous day.
is thsi a bug
No
no
wtf
before ishgard restoration, the only good method to level up crafting/gathering is with market board?
You didn't finish all the previous quests from The previous day
Thus they don't reset
mine didn't reset either today and I did finish them all, 100% sure
i just cancel that one daily
my quest log is empty, did it around 4 hours ago
