dont know how to
It tells you what to do tho? So again what tribe
Is the only way for me to obtain silver ore via mining or trading to voidrake aka botanist? Im on lvl 25 goldsmith quest and dont know how to get them.
Uh. I think there's something wrong with the square Enix website.
Can someone tell me if I can get item level 400 WHM primary weapons?
with tomestones
Miner, you get voidrake from gardening
kugane or rhalgar's reach, kugane is the fastest
yes, buy sceavan cane with poetics in rhaglr's reach or kugane
right next to the aetheryte
guys can you help me out , i have a problem when i try to log in using the ff14 client it tells me i need a game licence but my account is on free trial and i am lvl 13 ...
b
I assume you mean the dori markets aetherite?
So i have to now make a lvl 25 miner or gardener to progress in the goldsmith quest?
I went to hop onto the companion app and it told me to re log in. It told me my username and password were wrong so I sent an email to reset password. I know for a fact I typed in the correct email but the email that got sent to me says that it's not associated with a square Enix account when I know very well that it's my account specifically for ffxiv
ah, plaza, let me check
You should’ve had gatherers anyway, they’re pretty important to crafting
Oh man that sucks hard
Anyone else have this problem?
Because you get another use in your pot window before it's over
I was worried so I logged into ffxiv and it worked just fine.
Is no one else at all having this problem?
Yes
Also try #technology-discussion
It has nothing to do with that because it's not letting me log into my SE account.
It says there's no account associated with owlpancakesffxiv@gmail.com but that's literally my FFXIV email.
I even got the email in said email inbox.
If I want to craft a Sanguine Scepter, can i just level my Goldsmith to 50 via leve quests/ beast tribe quests, crafting or do I have to actually finish the Goldsmith quests in Ul dah to lvl 50 too?
Also a square enix account isn't the same as a mogstation account
just lvl your GSM to 50 and meet the requirement stat to craft the item
Crafting log has nothing to do with job quests
Nice! Thanks
so someone in our FC robbed the guild bank before dropping the guild. Is that something that support has historically dealt with, or do they just say "well they had permission to do it so we won't do anything about it"?
the latter
It says to log into your SE account.
its on you/fc to ensure permissions are properly set
I guess, but who can account for someone becoming a malicious turdnugget?
Don't assign them higher permissions until you know for sure
If you use the honour system, you cant expect everyone to abide
is there any difference if you pick between any european server and play there from one an other? (asking for a friend)
No
also if we are both in europe, can we still play together? i heard some1 say you can go to an other server for a little while
oh

How many poetics do alliance raids give if there is a new person?
is this available while on the free trial ? @faint flare
i did this week's fashion report with a grey dyed head piece and best man's jacket but only got 79, did i do anything wrong?
oh wait nvm i equipped the wrong headpiece, it was brown
Should I always wait for 3+ enemies to AoE, or are there some jobs where AoE 2 enemies is a dps gain over single target
there are some jobs where the 2 is the correct break point
3 is like the safe rule of thumb
Hey, excuse me, but by some reason i can't unlock shiva and titan unreal trials, although i've unlocked mr faux and even got leviathan in the list, what could be the problem?
They don't exist anymore
There’s only one unreal up at a time
They rotate out the unreals
Does anyone know if it'll be extremely hard to do lvl 80 treasure map w/ only 3 people? (the ones that suggest an entire party of lvl 80s)
No
for timeworn artifacts, is potd a better idea to farm them?
I see, thank you
As long as you have a tank and heal you'll be fine for maps
Lol no
Thank you!
Is the only samurai looking armor from Deltascape savage?
I can't find anything similar anywhere else
Party finder has speedruns occasionally
ohh right didnt know you could join that way
You can party finder everything
Just remember to bring the right things and don't leech
Is Aether datacenter going to be uncongested after server maintenance on Monday?
Im only getting 50 bonus poetics from alliance raid sprouts, wasn't it 100
For Squadron should I have Puglist or Lancer you think? I can't decide, lol XD
unlikely
Ok, I am on the PS5 and I do the left trigger - right trigger to pull up my second cross bar. Is it possible to have those job specific?
can search for its name in the completed section of your quest journal. do note that its case sensitive
Just turn sharing off for whatever hotbar it'd looking at
I've gotten a fair amount of Allagan Tomestone Poetics. I'm chugging through the latter part of the ARR stuff (2.2 etc.), and I have two questions. 1) Is it cool to grab some level 50 gear, or would people be like "no, hold onto it for higher level stuff"? 2) If I were to buy stuff, why would I spend 600 poetics on Yagrush for my WHM (ilvl 110) when the same 600 would net me an Augmented Ironworks Magitek Cane (ilvl 130)?
So uncheck? I have and it keeps staying there. Ugh.
Buy ironworks
Check what hotbar it looks at
So I have the same tank set for DRK and GNB but want different glamour. I have a DRK glam plate and GNB glam plate but how do I make it such that whenever I swap it automatically changes glam?
By double holding both looks at hotbar 8 by default
link gear set to glamour plate
only work in main city or end game hub like Idyllshire
Great it works thanks!
for dancer's aoe skills, how is the "first enemy" vs all remaining calculated? is the first enemy the one closest?
As in linking only works there or being able to swap glam plates only works there?
Yes
Can I make that different per job?
You can change which hotbar it looks at
And just make it unshared
Character configuration > hotbar > custom
You can pick what hotbar it looks at
any time you change gear set with different appearance(in your case, one is GNB and one is DRK), the game re-apply the glamour like you done it manually, that feature not working outside of these place so you might see base appearance of the item before glam
Either be a specific one or the next/previous with cycle Up/down
@graceful sail like a shire chest piece for tank not taking the valor appearance despite valor was saved in a plate and you link it to your PLD gear set when you change to PLD outside of those place
quick question for relic do i only need to equip the relic on the final boss ?
on the msq quest On Track, when i try to open the toolbox for jeryk it says cannot execute at this time.
if i talk to him it says this spot looks like it could use a bit of work, ready the tools for me.
i am stuck on this quest until i figure out how to fix it if anyone maybe knows
Update: I tried a doing my email in lower case and they sent another email to recover password but it was completely blank
They said to fill in a confirmation code but the email was blank
nevermind i figured it out, somehow i swapped to botanist so it wasnt letting me continue the quest

Ok this worked. Thank you so much, I have been putting off doing this but I have too many skills.
To get 530 gear, is it more efficient to run the Nier raids or do savage Eden ?
my mount in zadnor is too slow how do i make it faster
Ontop of eden morn gear
Riding maps
25 clusters
One for bojza and Zadnor
So i'm on the quest for warrior "Looking the part" and have to equip the warrior's armor, and i have no idea on how to get it, I can't buy it at the Calamity salvager too
You got it
In your armoury chest
You going around to get the pieces were literally giving to you
Straight up
Check your inventory as well
Nothing there either
Nothing comes up
What lvl is this
It's named Fighter
45
Because warrior chest is not avaiable until 50
It's the 45 quest where yoy get the armour pieces
You need to wear them all except chest
did you actually go talk to the npcs to get the gear?
/Isearch Fighter's
You have everything except the chest
Ahh i got it now, thanks!
I know this is kinda a broad question, but should I just farm white scrips for Handsaints gear, or should I just buy Aesthete's gear and do a "cheap" meld on them?
I heard tri-meld Aesthetes is still better than Handsaints
If the aesthete is cheap then I would grab it
Oh, this is for CUL if that makes a difference
It doesn't
I think aesthete is like 100k a piece HQ
Eh that's not bad
Good day. I was just confused about blade of lost antiquity. Do I only get 1 every week?
No
u dont absolutely need ironwork gear or other X0 gear to start each expansion right?
There's no loot locks anymore
Alright, ty ty
Need, no... Should you get it? Yes
The expansions expect you to be roughly like 30 ilvls under the highest tome gear available
!faq bluguide
Swap when needed/required
do I need to learn bosses more in depth as a tank?
I only ever raided as a dps and healer
Lol no
You just need to know what the buster is called
So you can mitigate accordingly
Ok so the issue about ffxiv making background youtubes videos to stop is definetely internet problems related to FFXIV, somehow FF is making my other apps to slow down or fail
And what tanks do in mechanics ad everyone has their own roles in mechanics
how long would it take to get full ironwork gear?
I already farmed one full set on my scholar but I didnt pay attention how long it took
like, if I keep doign raids back to back
Not that long really, especially if you get first time bonuses on stuff for more poetics
Oh, any tips on Pentamelding? Like should I unlock certain things to make it cheaper/easier? How much would it cost roughly to pentameld 1 item?
- dailies
Cry softly
And Sacrifice your race of choice
Would it be easier if I cry harder?
are simple furnitures pricey on MB?
kinda wanna stop having an apartement with just a bed and im too lazy to craft
Overmeld rates are static
Based on the materia tier and slot
So just prepare to cry and sigh alot
And Sacrifice to rngjesus
whats better, elemental helm of fending+2 or optical hat for eureka?
!faq ninguide
#kupo-bot-spam
Do I need to buy the lower-tier Master Crafting recipe books first or can I just skip to the VIII tier (assuming lvl 80 crafters)?
You don't
crap, wasted a bunch of yellow scrips haha
I cant seem to unlock my hotbar to remove abilities
shadowbringer overworld fight theme is such a buzzkill, is there any way to turn it off
to keep hearing the area ost
there's an option in the sound settings that's something like "enable normal battle music", disable that @hasty turtle
the lock is part of hotbar 1
ohhhhh
thanki you
Could you please contrast and compare BRD and DNC? Which one do you prefer and why?
Both are proc based. Dancer has a simon says type of situation and is only busy when you have a large amount of procs and are technical stepping really, while bard banks on phases in the forms of song that determine really what you're doing with your skills, in short. I prefer bard because sometimes I find dancer a bit boring because you press one button and wait for a proc a lot of the time till you get to dance, while bard has songs that sort of guarantee that you'll be doign something in those phases for the most part. Plus, bard is more challenging in the sense you have buff windows and dots to keep up
(that's a personal take though)
dancer's fun for me for brain off situations
Thank you! I used to main BRD. Trying to see how DNC might differ.
They do different quite a bit, really.
now I feel silly for explaining bard lmao, but dancer's still fun, just a lot less challenging and different
^ till technical step windows
Even then it's still simon says and it's a fast GCD
it can be satisfying but tbh right off the bat of picking up dnc you can figure out what it feels like
I appreciate your detailed explanation 🙂
so go hit a dummy with it as lvl 60 and that's roughly it, you get more busy stuff at 70+
I see. This is helpful.
is there a storage chest in this game
Yes
It’s in the settings can’t remember where tho
thank you
how difficult/easy is mch? I heard it is very fast and needs good ping but seems like theres no buffs or dots to keep track of and the rotation is very fixed so I can basically memorize it?
It's straightforward but active

NG+ to play old quests but you have to progress normally all over again. Can't isolate it to a single quest.
Do I need to finish msq to begin Bozjan southern front?
Thanks!
Retainers are item storage, gil banks, and the means to sell on the market board. Hire a retainer from the Retainer Vocate a starting city. You need to progress through the main quests past the third dungeon to get permission to hire retainers. Also do note that trial players can not access retainers.
I’m only interested in bozjan southern front for the Bozjan coat of fending. Do I need to complete 5.4 for that?
No
Perfect
do you need the ivalice raids for bsf? kinda forgot
What time does fashion report reset?
okay, also uhh im going to pick up the quest for the golden saucer since im 15 rn
where would I go to get the outfits
and do I need gil?
cuz I got like 2k
Any dyeable head with the dye
Make sure to fill every gear slot
hm, I only have the armor from msq
and for the jacket it says 18k or whats that other thing
during the show?
okay, so for the jacket, where can I get it besides paying 18k gil
since im broke atm 💀
the rianne thing?
Just take the 10k mgp
how much is it to start subbing?
Not much you can do
!faq subprice
uh what do you mean? which 10k
hm, so I guess I can't get the jacket
It's easily accessible from the vendor
is the lowest price for 18k
That’s the price
Story
im lvl 15 rn with 2k, could I really get enough in the days I have left
Depends how quick you get through it
yikes, I got like today and tmrw to get 16k thru story
hii i'm thinking of using a fantasia , but i wanna try a hairstyle i bought on it b4 i do.. is there anyway to see how it looks w/o using it ? :3
Aesthetician
retainer fantasia
you can buy one off mb and then change the retainer to the race you plan to go, then try the hairstyle on them
oooo okay i will use the retainer
but i wanna change my race too n i wanna c how the hairstyle looks on them
oh then yeah, retainer fantasia.
if you' re on PC you can use cmtool as a much easier way
but if you wanna do it vanilla then yeah retainer fantasia is your best bet
ok so I'm new to the game and this channel and I need some help ...im currently doing the Ifrit dungeon (lvl 33 lancer) I'm trying to become a dragoon...I've completed all the lancer quests but not the sylph scope line... where do I go to find that quest line?
msq, keep going
okaay thank you <3
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
I remembered that the Regalia Type-G mount should be available via the Ironworks Vendor in the Golden Saucer, though when I speak to him it says that "Garlond Ironworks will soon be offering guests a selection of prizes". Is the event not on?
so just keep doing main quest
it is on, you need to do the ff15 quest
ahh
it's outside of the immortal flames base in ul'dah
i haven't mined in a while... just got 60k xp out of 12mil needed for one level up from one node after mining like 12
can't be that i have to mine 200+ nodes just for a level up with a chance of 50%, right????
correct
thank you
what level is the node relative to your level
So big question.
I know adons like a DPS meter are against the TOS and can get you in trouble.
But what about mods like Gshade and alike?
Don’t say shit
any mod probably can, it's just
- don't say shit about it
- realistically they don't probably care if you're malicious about it
world's first raids have been verified by SE and they have used ACT on-screen
they don't care they just say it for legal reasons + try to squash any toxicity with it
The people who typically get banned for it are double whammies
but for the very same legal reasons don't mention it in-game
Being a dickhead that also happened to use a mod
I ask because I am considering using some mods like for map and alike.
So as long as I don't say anything it will be okay?
yes
any mod will be okay as long as you don't say anything
they physically cannot detect common mods or third partty stuff people use
mods follow fight club rules in ffxiv ;p
For some reason I thought ACT was the only problem since it technically interacted with the data packets
it interacts with data collected from your game client
they don't look at your data, clientside
it does nothing serverside
pretty sure all mods are clientside which is why the don't talk about it basis works
nothing to impact others
Y,y it reads em clienside. IDK how you'd do anything serverside
You do it by being banned
there are some mods that do stuff with server packets in a non-malicious or game-altering way
namely a big lag-reducing one
thanks <3
Can you max out all stats on a racing chocobo, e.g. 500/500 for all attribute = 2500?
As far as i know, with a perfect pedigree chocobo, using nly the most powerful feeds, you can only max three stats
someone correct me if im wrong
So max of 1500 and the other stats you need to leave at 0?
Is it still RNG to get the 1500 stat then? Sometimes I get 5 and 4 stat when using the low grade feed
So not sure if that's normal when using high grade feed
https://preview.redd.it/vbki9tarcpw21.jpg?width=675&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c94ca0b1a29625d8652a5a37a48293cc6a39ffec is one verion of a "perfect" racing bo
If im not mistaken, the feed gives you a percentage of your max stat
Wow you can max 4 stats and about half of the 5th stat
So the total max stat is still RNG
What is that rank 50? Thought 40 was max
ye ^
Ah
Im not sure but ive read in some guides that once you get a perfect pedigree, you are guaranteed to have at least three max stats unless you mess up in the training
my static runs old content synched. im aware that they scale, but what would be the difference between using a grade 3 vs grade 4 pot in such instances?
Mhmm yea it looks assured to have at least 3 maxed stat, just not sure if you can reach higher than 4.5 maxed stats. Thanks for the info
Hey guys I’ve been trying to download this game for the past 2 days and I keep getting hit with the same maintenance issue
I tried everything regarding VPN and turning fire walls off
Can someone please help I’ve never played this game and I’m really intrigued
G4 has a higher percentage boost
!item grade 3 tincture of strength
!item grade 4 tincture of strength
yeah i just didnt know if the scaledown was negligible...grinding desynth for levinstrike is killing me ngl
i know you can get them from scripts too but they're hella expensive
and i'd also rather now spend the gil but /shrug
Because end of expac
yeah true
Are you doing the free client / free account ?
is there a limit to how many wonderous tail journals you can turn in a week?
1 a week
technically can only turn in 2 a week
what was the button to toggle size of hud elements?
one from a previous week and then the current week's
More like, you can only get 1 per week
but can only accept one per week
Turn in is free, but you have 2 week to complete
Yes I am through steam
Hello, im trying to setup my "battle" chat to clearly know what bosses are casting
there is an "engaged enemy" and an "unengaged enemy" in the chat settings
I had the same issue when I tried the free account/client before. Alot of searching got me this:
C:\Users\<USER>\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn\FFXIV_BOOT.cfg
-Browser -> 1 (Main), 2 (free Trial)
-EulaAgreementExBitArray32 -> 1 (to bypass)
-StartupCompleted -> 1 (to bypass)
Not in battle
Confirm if that works for you. Wondering if it was just me.
hey guys, how many Trials are required just to get through the msq, up to max level?
I guess 23?
where do i redeem these
Aelina in mor dhona
ight thx
Nah
Everything is extremely telegraphed for normal content
what dps that you can play from the beginning has the shortest rotation or priority?
not gonna lie Vinyl, the easier, the better for me
honestly, none especially
DRG?
black mage may be simpler to understand but it has longer cast times

Like DRG is not easy because of melee, but I think it’s the easiest melee?
you would want dnc or rdm but none can be picked up from the start
tbh BLM should be fine for casual content
Black mage is like 3 buttons until higher levels
I think BLM isn’t too hard when doing normal stuff?
k BLM or maybe even bard then?
Also press the join fete button
Follow the crowd
Yeah probably
BRD is also quite easy in the early game
oh yeah bard
bard ends up in a LOT to micromanage at endgame but it does have free movement
hey i am trying to farm light for trans mogs any level 80s want to help me with as8 then as9
at early game it has free movement and barely any buttons
I mostly just feel like Bard is so significantly astronomically harder than the other two physical ranged
Which made bard feel really hard
where do i buy riding maps
@ripe hound what do you find difficult about bard?
ShB is gemstone traders
and dunno about the rest
(mostly because probably there's no riding maps outside ARR and ShB areas)
At end game Bard have a 80s song rotation and DoTs are 30s,
So remembering to reapply dot and keep sing rotating, while managing different procs feels hard for me
I might have an easier time with EW Bard
But no idea why, ShB bard just really don’t click with me
also this may sound weird, but is it "wrong" to just stick with one job the entire time you play the game? i know a lot of people want to master all of them.
Don’t even think Bard changed that much in ShB
No, not wrong
Or the same 
ok cool, thanks guys! i'll try blm and bard i think
song durations increase from 30 seconds per song to 45 second
kk have fun!
Yeah I feel like the 120s song rotation should make things a lot more comfortable
this should let us have more time to proc
but we also get new skills
alas one
for sure
and that needs to be cast after apex
whats the drop rate for shb trials now ?
How do i unlock the Unreal trials such as Navel, Akh Afah?
You don’t
unreal trials rotate
you speak with the Faux Commander in Idyllshire
bozja and zadnor
They are permanently gone? I see “locked duty” in the party finder high end duty and those r the only ones im missing
bozja suppliers with clusters iirc
are you certain you're not missing the ultimates
I have the edens unlocked
that's not ultimates
thanks
Which ultimates
Any of them
Name any
the binding coil of bahamut (ultimate), the epic of alexander, and the weapon's refrain (Ultimate)
Name the first one or something
are the 3 ing ame
Beat O4S, O8S, and E4S respectively
Omega 4 savage, whats those others
Eden
Which eden?
Gate?
Whats the alexander one to do
There’s not one
Whats o8s
Omega 8 Savage
Omega 8
The 8th omega raid
alpha or what have you
would be sigmascape v4.0
Ohhhh
I just started my first tank class (MRD/WAR), and I'm kinda confused about the Interject ability. It says that it's supposed to interrupt a targets action, but I've tried to stop a few of the aoe moves certain enemies do and it hits anyway. Either I'm hitting it to late, and the animation takes time while the enemy uses their ability, or it's just not working. Does it have to be a pre-emptive thing?
alpha is last tier of omega, so 9-12
Delta and sigma 4 savage unlocks the ultimate?
unending coil and weapon's refrain respectively
you can't stop Aoe attacks
!faq interject
only attacks which has a red flashing bar can be stopped
You can just walk out the aoe range
Less damage better
Always dodge what you can
fair
less healing on you is more dmg from healer
and this is why I don't play tank
What can I do with old gear for other classes that is filling both my inventory and armory chest?
Do I vendor them? Do I disenchant them somehow?
GC turn in, gear up retainer, desynth
sell them to the GC
I need a rank for that, right?
yes second sergeant
Also when you sell them to the GC, what do you get?
Seals
So I should store them in my chest until I rank up?
yeah or just do GC hunting logs and use the seals to rank up
Is there something like disenchant, and is it worth it? Do I do it myself or can I ask an NPC or a person with said profession?
I can't rank up with seals anymore
there's no disenchant
if you can't rank up that means you are lieutenant which means you can already sell gears for seals to the GC
No
Desynth destroys item for the materials it’s made of
I can't rank up using seals

And I can't sell either
....
Do GC log
that's impossible
what rank are you currently
Ok
now I'm no military person, but corporal is higher than sergeant no?
anyone can explain what "max" means here ?
Yeah I just pointed out that I cant level up using seals, which he claimed was impossible.
she
thanks @twilit arch
I mean, they aren't wrong. you can rank up with seals
you just also need to complete your hunting log
The highest possible dps thst you can only get under perfect play and perfect conditions
So nobody
perfect play meaning perfect skill rotation and conditions like dodging all spells and executing boss mechanics perfectly ?
Or just whoever has the highest parse atm
isnt that like the top 100 p layers ?
"parse" ?
It's the thing you don't about in game.
Armoire is for specific gear, nothing else allowed
For those of you who have joke or npc names: how do you ignore the immersion breaking?
how come DRK has the least deaths out of the 4 tanks ?
because DRK is already dead inside
People played it less often?
heh...
also generally people are more experienced
wdym
because u unlock the class in HW ?
Deaths isn't a valid metric
which is the metric for tanks ?
Damage
since DRK is locked behind HW, it's not as readily accessible as the other jobs, by the time you get there, if you play tanks, you are more experienced
Parsing is just dps/healing
No
haaaah not really
Uhh which crafting jobs can do overmelding?
All
all of them
Just need 1 at 80
darn
All tanks are equal enough
Ok thanks all!
To overmeld everything
Time to gamble I guess!
!faq meta
btw CUL is funniest for melding
you cook materia into your weapons/gears
"and now a drop of Piety IV"
lol that's exactly what im about to do
I just bought Aesthetes and I'm comparing them to Handsaints gear - just realized I need to put more materia in my Aesthetes cuz the handsaints look better on paper
My favorite is using cul for the ixali dailies when you increase the quality by tasting. "Yup that's a delicious tasting airship wing."
Are all the combat+crafting professions going to lvl 90 with Endwalker?
yes
they'll go to 80 somewhere during endwalker
Eventually
mid-end of the expansion
#kupo-bot-spam !faq blmleveling
With Yellow Gathering Scrips, do different locations have different items or are they all the same items no matter what area you're in?
they're all the same, provided you've unlocked the appropriate house of splendors
Alright thank you 😄
Hey. Is Praetorium removed or what? Been getting only Castrum Meridianum for a week.
No
Why is it that when I cleared floors 41-50 of potd I gained 900k exp but when I did 51-60 I gained 690k, I was level 57 for both runs
None of the crystal tower quests are showing up and i can't seem to find gift of archmagus either, On Sb btw
because 51-60 has higher scaling that 41-50
er
iirc there's some weird scaling with certain floors
but generally higher floors scale higher for exp
So just run 41-50 ig
Why not
41-50 doesn't have the luxury of being a check point
You would have to start from floor1
51-60
to get back to 41
Oh I can’t repeat ?
what's the name of the potion thats best for crafting?
That is a yikes
51-60 is more efficient because you can repeat it
as in crafting or drinking then crafting?
Drinking them for crafting stats boost
I found this but I wanted to double-check: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/4fe710c87f9/
technically that's a food item
It says medicine
huh
anyway, what syrup is best is dependent on your stats/needs
if you're lacking CP, then using cunning
Yeah I'm lacking stats to be able to craft like Smoked Chicken (or any Master VIII foods) even with a mix of handsaints and aesthete gear
MB
hmm smoked chickun
Can someone help me with something about Culinarian collectibles? I'm following a guide I found, but I'm confused by this part. I don't know what a cube is, and I can't find the dish as collectable on my crafting thingie
It might be an old guide
Damn
I’m pretty sure you can give Zhloe stuff at lvl 55
They completely overhauled crafting in 5.3

is there a big difference between free trial and full game? i just bought full game
besides social features not really
hello, anyone know which mob number you should use aoe rotation for each job?
Within doubt, 3+. Tanks and Dancer do at 2+
i just read gunbreaker is 3+
all tanks is always 2+
They use their ammo Combo until 3+
But their aoe combo replaces their standard combo at 2+
It's more important you hold aggro over doing DPS in dungeons
Signed: a DPS who has stolen aggro and died because the tank was doing single target
I mean, if there's more targets you're gonna do more damage by aoe'ing anyway
More targets = more potency = more damage = more aggro
ye but each class has a break point when aoe becomes more valuable than single target
what do you guys think of summoner as far as being an easy rotation? or blm easier? just for msq level content
It's a long rotation
SMN right now has a long rotation.
I would wait until EW rework to touch it if you're mew
The rotational flow won't change
are all rotations being simplified with the new expansion?
Cause you're gonna have to relearn the entire job in a month and a half anyway
It will stick with the 2min rotation
SMN is getting revamped completely.
k i'll try blm then i think. i've been having trouble keeping up with moving and attacking on drg.
in trials
You'll go bahamut > primals > phoenix > primals repeat
Instead of bahamut > filler > phoenix > filler
The flow is the same
Bro, that's over simplifying it
That's the flow
Saying "it's just the filler" is so disengenous
I mean, Tridisaster, dots, those have been the meat of the job for years
And the primals are flexible on which can go where in each other
Those are going away
Doesn't matter
We still don't know the full extent of new smn
Could still be a one button caster but that one button changes per primal
sup guys, anyone able to give me a hand with edens gate sepulture (savage)
q's are too long
so just to be clear, i'll probably only do the msq content. do i even really need to worry about the rotation on blm or sum for that level of content, even in dungeons and trials?
hey who can help me understand how the preorder situation goes
the code they sent me is the whole expansion? or just the pre order bonuses
Preorder and early access
and i get access to every expansion before that right?
The real code comes later
not because you need maximum DPS to clear the dungeons mind you, but because clearing faster means you don't waste other people's time
yes and no
is it required? absolutely not
are you going to have a harder time later if you don't start to learn earilier? yes
@faint flare oh okay they email that?
Yes
hella
It's the same location as your preorder
There's a lodestone post about it and everything
When it's applicable
do you have a link? id love to read up on it
what was the button to change size of UI elements in HUD layout?
ah i understand :3 thanks
Hi started playing as Male Au Ra but now I think I want to switch to Viera, is the gear/hat problem with the Viera very frustrating ?
Click the cog
yes i know about the cog
there's a button that can change the size of the element on the fly
Page up/down
without needing to go through the cog
i must've unbound it, where is it in the keybind settings?
tbh I really don't know but worse case scenario you can always turn off hat display
can i do my AST relic as NIN?
like getting memories and doing fates, grinding rank etc
well... depends on relic
my nin is 71 my ast is 80
ShB for example you can gather the memories if you have the quest
Shadowbringers relics don't require that job
job and relic doesn't matter
yeah i’m talking bozja, sorry
yeah as long you have the quest you can get memories as any job with any weapon
sweet. so just need to get that last 25% to 71 on my nin… he’s almost there
You can even get more than you need, if you want to get enough drops for more than one relic.
even better
everyone complains about it when playing those races, but they deal with it for the most part
You can't have the same quest active more than one at a time, but you can collect as many drops as you want.
tbqh I haven't seen many viera with a hat
mostly glasses and goggles
because they look terrible
or tiaras and what have you
Kinda stupid question but.. I did not know how much stuff you can do on a free trial and I subscribed before lv60. My sub ended before lv60 tho, I think im 56 atm, did my trial "run out" and I cant get to 60 without subing again?
yep
Can I buy the collector edition Upgrades if I use steam?
Rip then sadly i got the package with xpansions too >°>
Yeah, it’s done on mogstation
Poggers
Their site is Total jackass and cant find it, how much does Complete Edition cost? >°>
$60 $24 because sale
€40 €16 for EU
And you only get the expansions right? No boosts or other bonuses?
complete edition is:
base game + expansion
which is all you need to play
it does not include any boosts nor any digital collector's bonuses, which will need to be purchased separately after the fact
is the evil dog attacking the coins during the Yojimbo GATE just a trap mechanic and you're stupid for going for it?
no you can actually get the coin and avoid it
it's just that you usually cannot get every coin or can get only one before he leaps onto certain ones
I see
generally recommended to avoid or at least wait to see which one he's attacking before you go for it
It has gone straight for the coin I went to 3/3 times
the only actual trap mechanic in yojimbo GATE is RNG on the three slices of the arena
Cups
thx for the clari
I just go in the middle for that and see where the game takes me
2/3 shot I don’t get knocked out
im assuming i can't apply that to steam either?
because you're actually buying xpacs i guess.
apply what, exactly?
If I buy the complete edition on the website for 23$ it won't affect my steam purchase?
I don't get it, i didn't get any seed while harvesting my garden .-.
I wonder why SE had to make this such a head ache.
I'm assuming I cant just buy it, then start using those copies?
You won't be able to use the code given
What I mean is could I use that code to play w/o steam integration then? Would I still be able to access my character?
You physically
You’d have to make a new account to use it
yikes. thanks then.
can i get revelations from wonderous tales if im already at the cap for the week?
it will not bypass the cap

No, it's a fair question. Some games have an earn-cap, and currency you obtain through bonus rewards (sort of like WTs) don't count towards it.
But it doesn't work like that here, I'm afraid.
hey in eureka if you don't get a bunny is it just random?
because I'm pretty sure I got gold rating
If there are too many people doing the fate getting a bunny is rng at that point
Nothing in this game ignores currency caps
Yes. I know. =)
I was wondering how to make a hotbar be the same on all classes? I am trying to make one for emotes and stuff I use but its only on one class of mine
does anyone know when the next sale is gonna be?
for steam i mean
Do a bunch of random players know when a multi million dollar company are going to have a sale on a specific product
Ask the magic 8ball
Well how do I turn it on for that one?
Character configuration > hotbar > sharing
Find out which hotbar it is
Yeah I know which it is, it being Hotbar 5, but when I look in the hud settings thing I don't see anything about shared bars
See what vinyl said
Alright I got it now
Can I do only one of the quests between ||M'naago and Meffrid|| in Stormblood? Or will I get the option to do both?
You have to do borh
Just like how you had to help both brothers at the start of heavensward
👍
Good to know, thank you
To learn 1k needles as blu do I need 1k hp?
You don’t need to get hit by it
Anyone know if SE will do anything new with Eureka?
Ooooo nice. Ty
incredibly unlikely since it's 'finished' at this point
Just see the spell, multiple times because overworld aren’t a 100% drop
we will likely get more eureka-style content but eureka itself will be entirely the same
the only change we know if is speed belt getting changed to speed ring
that and level 70 toolkits will be changed which will change the meta of who's going to be good in eureka at 70
It got buffed with echo so yeah probably nkt
It’s gear, unless you throw it for some reason it’ll still be there
Hello, for the Blue Unchained achievement do i have to do the T5 T9 T12 in order or not?
Ah, that sucks, Eureka's pretty cool
Just those fights
not in order, just at any time
So i can do last alex then T5?
Thanks
If there a way to remove tooltips from the controller? For example, when pressing RT, a tooltip appears *Press Start to Edit *in the middle of the screen.
Regarding the Facet of Gathering, is it possible to gather something as a Miner and turn it in as a Botanist?
I have a Level 80 Miner and a Level 78 Botanist, so it'd be easier to gather with my Level 80 tools versus my Level 70 tools.
Why your gear not updated tho
Because I leveled through Diadem + GC turn-ins.
(Using the Landking's set right now).
should be possible
wait
i actually don't know. i don't think so because the items for gathering will be class-specific
aye that's what i figured
not to the one you turn it in as
mhm
Gotcha.
I was just wondering since Animal Traces can be gathered as both a BTN and a MIN.
Trying to get my hotbars to change when I change classes but they wont
I turned off shared but its still not changing
You can.
The crystarium deliveries within the same facet can be done on one and turned jn on another
Provided they meet level requirements
cross hotbar
Since you're controller
Not regular
Cause non shared hotbars are different
Ah so I have to redo it?
Shared hotbars will retain when swapping
Non shared will switch
You need to redo the bars when toggling iy
alright tyvm
Guys anyone would happen to know where I can find a guide to farm efficiently one heavensward relic?
(Canopus lux)
!faq anima
The realm's premier publication on beauty and fashion, this specific copy of Modern Aesthetics covers, in detail, techniques on braiding hair in ...
level 30 quest^^
you get your main job at lv 30
!faq job
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
can confirm, flashbang good
So I'm 2170112 XP from level 70. Anyone know the fastest way to get to 71? DPS if that matters.
holy, assize, and afflatus misery
run ||Castrum Abania|| @jagged shell
pixie beast tribe quests
beast tribe pixies if you have them
you'll get at least 1 mil
Thank you all. For the advice.
I like to call Assize the "fun button"
does combo action mean the skill combos into the action or out of the action?
Combo action is the previous step in a combo
So here it goes true thrust before disembowel
so you would use true thrust then disembowel?
yes
ty 🙂
Yes
If you use disembowel on its own it has a potency if 150
If you use it after true thrust it has a potency of 320 and gives you a damage up buff
i dont know whats happening. i keep trying to enter the praetorium in duty finder and it keeps throwing me into an earlier boss fight
You may not have unselected what I can only assume is Cape Westwind
you probably have another dungeon selected
remove all dungeons then re-add prae and try again
How do I use these skills? it says I can't place them on the hotbar
Iaijutsu
(I had to look too, I haven't touched my Samurai since I unlocked it)
passive skills.
they're attacks though
Iaijutsu will use one of those three depending upon how much Sen you have.
ahhh okay ty
!action Iajutsu
tyvm 🙂
what is ninja's main use outside of dps because its ninjitsu seems to have status effects and the like
what about things that add things like Bind and Heavy
!action Doton
Creates a patch of corrupted earth, dealing damage with a potency of 100 to any enemies who enter.
Duration: 24s
Additional Effect: Heavy +40%
Mudra Combination: Ten→Jin→Chi or Jin→Ten→Chi
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
it never works on bosses
full resistance
that kind of makes me angery
CC is okay if you're fighting a bunch of mobs at once in a solo encounter, and that's kinda it tbh
Only trash can any form of cc
because thats a wasted skill
the only time you use bind is when you're under kassatsu because it gets buffed to super ice shurikens which doesnt bind
WHM cure 3
Some are more niche than others
