Are you still in ARR?
arr?

no
where is it a@@
Where are you in the story then
!faq poetics
how do u open hunting log
Press h
are you in a expansion?
after you made your first relic weapon, is zandor used for anything else other than levelling?
I dont think it gives anything to any of the other relic steps
Now in Eulmore
oh
You can't use poetics in current content
they appear after you finish arr
poetics are not for lvl 80
yea i done dy
wanna exchange for some mat
haha
wanna look for the NPC to do the exchange

they should be near the aetheryte crystal
er
Dalriada gives raw emotions
3 of them
?
Refer to this
Is Data Center transfer handled within World transfers? I know Aether is currently locked down tight, just wondering how the process goes for when it does get better.
Aether players can transfer to Crystal, because congested to prefered
are the expansion beast tribes faster to level than the ones from the base game?
They start at rank 3 but you get 3 quests a day
anywhere I can ask someone to craft me some gear?
And go up to rank 8
@faint flareh opens crafting menu
no i didnt
N opens crafting log by default
you sure you didn't hit n on accident
You did
but i didnt tho
is it possible to check changes to my hud somewhere in peace? or do i have to change stuff -> try in combat -> repeat etc
System > keybind
You can see what it's bound to by opening the log menu
Which is by clicking the red log menu
Hello
Any1 got a cool ingame obtainable armor set to recommend (aesthetic) ?
How do I select floors 51-60 in potd, I can’t enter floors 61
On a new potd file, "start from floor 51"
theres... a lot and a lot of different class gear
Is that heaven on high ?
Potd is 200 floors
u can look around here and see some nice glams
Oh wow
HoH is 100 floors
stormblood, it's in stormblood
ye, look in the collection i linked and look for samurai glams i frankly dont know samurai armor
Thankss
Is ffxiv down/going down today?
yes there is maint tonight
See #kupo-bot-spam ping
Big ups
How many of the same collectables can I give to the delivery npcs?
is MSQ the best way to lvl up ?
yes
f daty
You can turn in 6 items per week to a custom delivery npc, total of 12 deliveries a week
So I can just farm 1 item 6 times?
mhm, do note tho as you're leveling up custom delivery npcs the required turn in for the first week is 3
If you're doing the story for them then it changes
So don't make 6 for the first time, make 3 of the first step
Aight, thanks!
uhm guys, how to make retainer a fisher, i just done the appearance, not any job selection at that part right?
Are you a fisher?
yes
They can only be classes you have as far as I know
once you've hired the retainer, should be an option in the retainer menu
to give them a class
Ah of course, you do that at the bell!
nvm, i havent read all the option
is there a rotation I can use at 65+ to max out collectability in Ishgardian Restoration?
I'm having difficulty maxing it out
What should i be using as cul at lvl 52 to get rare items to collectability 160+
er where's the channel?
oh ok
can i get banned for using xivlauncher
ah ok thx

ik this sound a stupid question but what good dps should i bring for nier raid to clear it asap
Is there a way to buff monster item drop rate? Trying to level my Leatherworker. Pure hell
the one you play the best
not really, you can play nin and use mug but like its a super low chance
easier to either make use of retainers or mb. if you're on trial then...
i'm sorry
pain
no ;-;
nah, i'm in shb. But retainers can bring leather?
nope
you'll have to do work on getting them up to the lvl of the skins yo uwant
but at least on which job it's best to send them?
so can take a bit, but would strongly recommend leveling your retainers since having them gather things for you while you're off doing stuff is p. nice
firstly to note, retainers can only go as high as you are in that job
for combat retainers, it doesn't matter what class/job they are. they all bring back the same items. between the gathering retainers, its fairly even between botanist and miner, fisher is a bit more niche
usually recommend atleast 1 combat and 1 gatherer, but 2 combat are perfectly fine
does it matter if job is a tank, dps or healer?
nope
is there a difference in mats they bring based on the class?
between the combat classes, no
Okay. last one. what is the most efficient way to level them?
aside from throwing money at SE
quick ventures
but that onnly unlocks after they're lv10
so for 1-10, send them out on the hunting ventures (they're the 1hr specific ventures) until you unlock that
I'm having weird crashes with the game. Anyone know how to fix the directx11 fatal error?
and just send them out every hour, or roughly every hour
how to beast tribe daily allowences work , i have 9. are they shared between all the beast tribes?
Can I level multiple classes on same Character or will there be problems with it
yes, they are shared between all
Yes
Dumb question but what happens if you cast a glamour over a glamour?
for expansion beast tribes, you only get 3 dailies a day. When you rank up, you get an additional 3 for that day (except for rank 7/8 rank ups)
you overwrite the existing glamour
Does it get rid of the old one completely?
It will replace the current glamour
Glamour doesn't "use up" the pieces
it only uses Prisms
your GEAR is literally untouched
you only consume the Glamour Prism
Alright, so it wont get rid of the glamour piece I already put on it.
Makes sense
Lets say i have a Twinsilk Robe
I glam it to be an elemental robe
If I now glam the robe to Rainbow, it will replace the elemental robe glam
It's weird to explain
It's weird to explain without guides
Yeah I think I see what you're saying, nothing actually gets deleted though
Which is what I was hoping for
A beginner's guide on how to use the glamour system in FFXIV - glamour plates, the glamour dresser & everything you need to know to get into the REAL endgame :)

HUGE Thanks to my Patreon Sponsors, who make this ...
yes
btw why does the glam dresser have those crystals/gems
meant to represent the glamours you've saved in your dresser
I see
Is the relic quest Seeking Inspiration locked to only 60-70 dungeons to get credit for the weekly or did they patch that?
seeking inspiration bug was fixed sometime ago
I see. I did a few dungeon roulettes with the weekly in my log but didnt get a completion yet. I'll try a couple more and see what happens. Thank you.
Can anyone explain how some free companies have cheaper teleport rates?
There's an fc buff for discounted rates
Free companies when a certain rank can buy ^ buffs yeah
Do you happen to know what rank?

5 then 8 for better versions
only fc leaders can use fc exp and teleport buffs?
Only certain ranks within the fc can activate buffs
It depends on what the fc leader has set rank permissions to
you can set which ranks can use them
what does it cost to turn them on?
nothing to turn them on specifically, but they cost fc credits to buy from the OIC officer
^
so I have mostly NQ Kudzu crafting gear
and then tier 3 buffs can only be crafted and made through an... annoying process
what should I do to improve my stats?
HQ gear, food, melds
So uhm, when does the ff15 event end again?
18th
thanks
but Kudzu gear from scrips is NQ right?
yes
Can you buy lvl 80 tools in the Crystarium?
Yo can also craft Kudzu
So this mean if I only do Fashio Report while at 120k, I should be able to buy Regalia right?
Yes
Is that a master craft?
thanks
It's 60k a week
Where can I buy lvl 80 tools?
Basic 80 from tool vendor in Crystarium, Market board for crafted, White Scrip vendors (Rowena Splendor esque) as well
Thank you very much 😄
I'm trying to get clarification on the eligibility for the weapon design contest from customer support, on ticket 2 cause the first time they said they're not allowed to give out any details pertaining to an entry, so I'm rewording my question and hoping to get an answer on if you have to have the sub up
Most likely you do but they really ought to have that written down somewhere
what am i missing here? what's preventing me from melding this Materia into these items
Do you have a crafter at level 18
Item level of gear too low
oh
Pretty sure it is
so I need to use rank 1 materia
Probably? I'd just check the materia since it'll say what ilvl you need
I can't quite remember what ilvl that shield is for example
Oh wait it says 18
never noticed that before
Duh
the marketboard
Or uh, beast tribe quests might when you get enough rep
Can also try to get some by extracting it out of max spirit bonded gear when you are able to do that
welp time to suffer
Otherwise yeah I'm all out of ideas
now you can probably see why low rank materia is so expensive 
PSA: an active subscription is required to be eligible for the weapon design contest
whats the discord for job guides?
What is the play icon above people characters
!faq balance
!faq balance
ty
In a duty
Gotten
Such as a levequest or FATE
Or something like bojza/eureka and have no group
will the nier automata quest ever return or was that a one time thing
It's a permanent addition
oh i thought it was like the ff vx quest
so once i reach shadow bringers i will be able to do it
It's shadowbringers 24man raid series
So beyond Leveling and Frontline, which roulettes are most efficient for levelling?
Hey so I'm a little confused with Dragoon rotation
Mirage Dive is supposed to increase Dragoon Gauge right
Alliance, msq, levelling and frontline are the top 4 giving Roulettes for xp
If you're 70+ and have done your job quests for Life
and give an eye
It will give an eye
do i need to finish Dragon Sound
i'm lvl 77 i think i'm a bit over leveled
I wasn't able to access the lvl 70 job quest yet
You need to finish the level 70 quest
oh alright thanks
@faint flare Is there any reason to do Trials or Raids roulette as a sub-80 Job once you've reached max level with anything?
i've been overleveled for a while so it felt a little weird
They're quick enough to be just about worth doing for xp
Are there any stats on around how much % of xp each Roulette gives?
I think there are was a reddit thread awhile ago that tried to do the maths on it but I can't remember
Dang
It is a shame that standard quests give basicay no xp
Despite not being repeatable
Question, can I use free marriage and premium at once to get two dresses?
higher tier includes lower tier stuff
so if you get plat
you also get the gold dress
and make sure both you and your partner have the same tier of marriage
so if you want plat stuff, both you and them need plat
Otherwise it will default to the lowest out of the 2

Whats the recommended valor for solo cluster farming in bozja?
I'm currently only on 5 atk valor, tried using WAR w/blood sucker but I still get yeeted.
I read somewhere spellforge is good.
I'm assuming the 4th legion mobs are weaker to magic?
Lost slash. Thanks vinyl. Will try
IR?
Inner release
And remember Nascent basically is benediction
Zone 1 is the roughest due to the dumb hands so bring potions for those to help
But zone 2 and 3 are braindead
Yea I was trying out in zone one. Not proud to say how many times I died
1 or 2 deaths was on drg. Wasn't working out so I went war with bloodsucker
Was rough trying to find a cluster party for some reason
Always try to keep some gauge for Nascent for that full heal
I usually just do Slash + Sacrifice/Noble/blood rage
Whatever I have slotted in the second from last time
I gotta UWU question: if an off-tank mitigates Titan when it appears, do I immediately pass it on after like the 2nd buster or something?

Warrior solo farm is all about inner release
Thats decent for infinite uses
So buffing it as much as possible is better
Banners perfectly fit around its Cooldown
why when i'm in a dungeon i can't use certain ability ?
If you're above the dungeon's level by a certain threshold, it will sync you down in level and stats
It's to prevent people from steamrolling things while matchmade
okay thanks
You can counteract that by using undersized party plus unsync, but keep in mind you only queue then with people already in your party, in other words if you enter a duty alone, you gonna play solo
what settings do i need here to solo the dungeon https://i.imgur.com/feeumDc.png
undersized
Yes
was a previous moonfire event
Undersized party, also unsynced but that option turns on automatically when you choose undersized
The girl on the right
Just like in idyllshire
Weapons are always in a different vendor next to the tome arnour vendor
what are security tokens? how can you obtain them?
You mean for 2fa?
whats a good way to earn gil without gear or crafting? my entire gear is destroyed and i dont have enough gil to repair it
when you try to register a free destination on an aetherite, it says you need a security token
You need to enable OTP on your account
I don't remember if it's on mogstation or sqenix site
Ah, oyu can access the site from either of those
Should be able to access this
and set it up
Is it normal for the frame rate to stutter when opening menus like party finder?
alright thanks
It's basically 2 factor authentication
You setup google authenticator (or authy i think?) and whenever you log in it'll ask for a code from the app
You get extra security + you get a free teleport location
tends to happen
Not a big deal since you don't exactly spam the window
But it's just loading a lot of info at once
yeah I figured it had to do with loading
where do i trade in cracked stella clusters for materia
In eulmore i believe, the small desk
i think it's this one
Yes

can i solo shiva extreme 70lvl BLM?
also where can i turn off level synch and stuff like that?
!faq unsync
In your duty finder window select the ⚙️ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
how to Farm Revelation Tomestone
ty
!faq Revelation
just do level 80 content
It has a weekly cap anyway, so like
WHERE IS THE STUPID POST MOOGLE IN ULDAH WTF WHY IS THIS SO HARD
THANKS.
TOO LATE! I'VE ALREADY GONE TO GRIDANIA WHERE ITS EZ-PZ
and I'm going to BURN THIS SAND CITY TO THE DAMNED GROUND
where can I see if the levequest can be turned in multiple times or just once?
what is considered first time bonus so can get more wondrous tail points?
A first timer in the duty
survival
ah ok
does it reset weekly or anything? some of the stuff i do i notice no one is new to it and would of had to do it as part of the msq
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/287679207432257538/879983272992583690/6Vjc0QW.png this type for non-SHB leves
shb = shadowbringer?

well i am lvl 5 armorer, so i dont think that shadowbringers is relevant yet
Doesn't reset at all
If player B hasn’t done the duty before, that’s a first time bonus
So you either get someone or you don’t
weird some of the msq dungeons for example a lvl 55 one, every1 in group is synced from lvl 70+ with multiple 80s and we still get the bonus o.o i would doubt with how many times i seen it they never was in that msq dungeon before
maybe just a bug or something but was curious thanks for the answers!!
shb = shormblood
Guarantee you that at least 1 of them is a first timer and the jobs are just overleveled :P
Yeah job skips do exist
so wait
I get 100 tome for completion + 100 from the bosses?
yes
maybe but hard to see it considering 15-25 lvls over is a shit ton and that not counting if they had multiple toon lvled. but either way who knows no biggie. thanks again
sick
ok so if I got no expansion
shire gears is the top of the top I can get in HW?
And Anima weapon
arent you supposed to get abilities in chocobo race as you level up?
Is there a way to copy/paste stuff out of the in game chat?
zomg that actually works!
just got a lv 70 boost, do i need to get the class b4 or can i just use the book and done?
that, thanks!
Where can i get lvl 40 gear for DRK?
you can buy it from vendors
or you can get it from dungeons of that level
Which vendors do i go to?

does mage's ballad really only increase damage by 1% or the job page doesn't tell you the full thing
!action Mage's Ballad
Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 100.
Additional Effect: Grants Mage's Ballad to all party members within 30 yalms, increasing their damage dealt by 1%

whats the best way to ear my botanist at lvl 50?
I got from 1 to 50 in maybe 1.5-2hrs ish
still wearing my level 10 gear lol
I have road to 70 buff and the manual buff
I use the program x-mouse to set my side mouse buttons as (ctrl+shift) and (ctrl+alt+shift) in order to use them in conjunction with hotkeys, however, when i switched to a new pc and the (ctrl+shift+f) keybind no longer works though other variants of (ctrl+alt+hotkey) do, does anyone know what could be causing this
quick question, as a beginner level 17 should I just focus on doing quests and exploring or is there anything else I should be watching our for
-
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.
I have a question for you guys. Im new to ffXIV, only been playing for a couple of days and have been loving it. Ive begun to get a dx11.exe crash message after a while of playing. Ive reinstaled my driver and ive uninstalled and reinstaled the game. Is there any tips you guys can give me to fix the game?
Do you need to be second lieutenant to buy an FC house?
pray
I wish I was exaggerating
hi, does anyone know where can I buy dresses in Stormblood? I met a store in uldah that sold some like the bestman jacket, i am looking for something like that in stromblood now that im here
the marketboard
is that really all?
Basically all of the gear that’s intended for glamour is tradable and on the marketboard
Just limit your results to level 1 items
but i dont know their names
its impossible to search them if i dont know their names
set the gear level to lvl1
okey, how do i do that
Click their button on the marketboard menu
@slate arrow is there anything i can do tomake it less likely to happen?
uuh, what
also, is the marketboard connected? like every location or is it area based?
its connected
All connected for the whole server
cool
it's across the entire server
Thankfully the UI guide from the lodestone has this image
are ultimate weapons the strongest or are they just used to flex?
not really. There just happens to be something wrong at the engine level
dang
weapons are always outdated by the time the item level cap increases
in fact Alexander ultimate weapons are now outdated because of the relic, even with item level sync
dang
understood then
so relics are the strongest for now until endwalker comes out right?
correct
yes
ah ok
how do I fish in the diadem?
at the water pools, later on you can unlock cloud fishing with one of the heavensward job quests
oh okay
does the lvl 50/60/70 roulette give a lot of exp?
Are any of the melee DPS classes proc based like redage or dancer?
No
It's the second worst roulette
The roulette reward is decent. The dungeons are not for level 80 however.
It's primarily for tomes
Not really 
Not that I know at least
The closest one is MNK with it's chakra procs but that's not as RNG anymore due to the buff that makes crits essentially 100% give a chakra
what do people mean by parse on pf
Does anyone know how to stop an emote looping in Gpose, that is done by someone else?
Hm, so I'm at an MSQ dungeon that requires ilvl of 280. The best I got was the ilvl 270 gear from my level 70 class quest. How do I gear up for this without breaking the bank? Non of the MSQ quest gear is ilvl 280
that's a reportable offense, first off, so they're playing a risky game
For the most part though they're doing it for maximum DPS so they can upload the ACT log to FFLogs
nvm I'm stupid
The level 70 class quest should give you 290 gear unless you're a gunbreaker or dancer
I switched computers
And this one had my gear set stuff from like 8 levels ago lol
we good
quick question for anybody… i bought a story boost about 30 mins ago and im still waiting for it to show up in my mail. is this normal?
yes because the mogstation servers are probably hella congested
you can try requesting mail from the mail moogle and see if that will work
thanks, i didnt know that
should i pick up the game now after a year of not playing or should i just wait til new expansion?
Up to you
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Do whatever you feel like
ive been wanting to play it for a while honestly, but i dont plan on doing any extremes or any hardcore content anyways
but new expansion soon too
might just pick it up and get used to it again
Then pick it up
New expansion is basically a reset button
Life is only onceee
yeah ill probably do that
Great time to hop back in
ye but ill have to get used to playing again
ill probably just get a sub again this week and get back into it
controls and rotations
definitely gonna need to get used to it again
checked earlier and i cancelled my sub oct 11 lol
havent touched it since
and i missed the callback thing in january sadly

oh ye i got 200k for sure then
i was doing that all the time
is it possible to see how much mgp i got without logging in?
lodestone

you can send one every 18 hours
for custom deliveries, are bonuses guaranteed to show up every week?
The missions with the manuals can only be ran once a week, if that's what you're talking about

is there a way to make some decent Gil? I am currently at MSQ lvl 20, but do have a lvl 50 miner and lvl 50 dragoon
where can i see my progression ?
click no 2
ez, you are not even max level
keep doing MSQ, adventurer in need from daily roulettes, farm your treasure maps every 18 hrs and sell on marketboard (since you have miner at 50 go for dragonskin maps)
crap I didn't know that... wait is tomorrow the reset?
so thats good rtght

3 Level 80 WoL, MSQ at 5.3, I have BTN and WVR around 73 and lacking in gil. What can I do to increase my gil gain?
so a few questions for the survival manual, how do i get the lvl 60/70/80 one. and where do i get them
cause im lvl 50 and the book no longer gives me extra xp
you buy it from rowena
is that for lvl 80?
51+
bluequest near ishgard levemette
It's a blue bag icon on the map
wrong person
question, ik to get weathered shadowbringer you have to beat shadowbringers, but does it have to be as a DK ?
or can i purchase whenever its done
So I'm working to get all the Zeta weapons, and from what I understand the Atma step can be done on any class
you need a level 80 DRK + completion of the tank role quests
what's the best class to grind out Atma FATEs on?
blue mage
I mean, you can't, can you? I don't think Blue Mage gets a Zenith weapon
not being an ARR class, after all
"any class"
It is tho
blue mage is still a class at the end of the day
you need a Zenith weapon equipped though
you have to have an ARR relic equipped to get Atmas
blu doesn't get one
and therefore cannot get Atmas
right, my bad
so it doesnt matter if i finish msq with a different job? all that matters is job quest?
you just need level 80 job + role quest completion
-
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.
Thank you, appreciate it
do you guys think its a good idea for me to augment my exarchic armor? im not familiar on what happens to end game gear with dlc drops
how often are the lvl 70 skips on sale?
it will become irrelevant in endwalker
i wont have nearly as much time to play the game when i get into it, but $25 is still a good bit per character as a college student lol
Unlikely another skip sale will happen
that said, if you aren't doing anything else with your allegory tomestones, you might as well augment it
Since we had one a month or so ago
damn
But who knows 
unfortunate
Is game down?
Nope
dont think so, im on hyperion rn
Oh I thought there was maintenance or something rn
its a little later
later tonight yes
how much are they on sale? $10-15?
It starts at 7 pm pdt, a little over 3 hours from now
scheduled to last until midnight pdt
max 24 hours I reckon?
but might go longer
aight
how do i contact a Gm for that one time item retrieval thing?
would it be under support desk or something
Support desk > report a bug
Oops, my mistake, it's actually scheduled to last until 3 am pdt@deft quiver
dumb question, how do you get Minfilia for trusts?
guy for eureka, i only care for the elemtal armor do i have to do the wep grind just to move to diffrence area ? i am at Anemos lv10
||I'm assuming you mean Mini-Minfilia? She's only available for Dohn Mheg, the Qitana Ravel, Malikah's Well, Mt. Gulg, Amaurot, Anamnesis Anyder and the Heroes' Gauntlet||
Does anyone know any discord server for Primal where I can look for fate info?
should I sell this treasure map or should I complete it?
yeah, meant she's not showing up at all in the trust menu even for those dungeons
If you are solo, just sell it
it's not a zonureskin, if that makes any difference

what currency do I use for gear once I reach shadowbringers?
compared to tomestones
Tomestones of Allegory and Revelation, which is earned from level 80 content
And doing roulettes at level 80
whats the lvl 70 gear to buy with tomestones?
Scaevan
augmented that is
im currently at kugani, am i close to scaevan?
You need to finish stormblood
right beside the aetheryte plaza
so until I reach level 80 I just grab gear from the market or instances along the main story in the meantime?
Your can't buy it until you finish stormblood
^
if you just reached it, you're like at the very beginning of stormblood still
Is more Desynth exp given when desynthing a HQ item ?
main story
buying MSQ gear is a scam cause you get the same gear from SMQ anyways
im using hellfire gear right now, but im about to hit lvl 70 and i just reached kugane. should i buy lvl 70 gear from kugane shops?
why didn't you get Shire
im samurai do they use shire?
270 item level
Just use gear from the story
Nope
Everyone uses shire
i wouldnt spend on any gear from market until you reach lv80, and at that point you buy exarchic gear
so shuold i buy shire gear then?
as a stepping stone while you grind cryptlurker and raid gear
since im far from finishing storm
yeah
im lvl 69 right now.. whats the map to buy shire?
Idyllshire
foundation
but go to foundation
the blue pouch npc right beside the aetheryte
Ishgard
on your minimap
does antiquated gear not create spiritbond?
so, what ARR class is best for grinding the Atma FATEs with?
aka, which ARR class can clear FATEs most quickly?
is it Ninja? I've seen some people on Ninja clearing pretty fast
Whatever one you're best with
That's definitely not true, because I main Healer and Tank
and they're undeniably slower at clearing FATEs than the DPS classes
Blue Mage 

Blue Mage isn't ARR
ah wait, that's not arr
yeah, it's got to be one of the ARR classes
I'm pretty sure it's probably one of the physical DPS classes, given that they have very high damage at all stages of 1-50 levelling
but that still leaves 4 jobs
Gear spiritbonds a bit more weird past level 50, you basically need to do content that’s around the item level requirement or a bit lower than what the gear is
it's probably not Bard?
Too high/low, and it won’t spiritbond at all
I did several 70+ dungeons and didn't gain spiritbond on a level 70 antiquated cane
bertana hismena, in the middle building
so it's presumably one of Ninja, Monk, or Dragoon
Ala Mhigo, Temple of the Fist, and Kugane Castle should be the most ideal dungeons to spiritbond the level 70 job gear
Maybe Drowned City of Skalla
iirc Dragoon doesn't get good AoE for a while, and AoE is important for doing most FATEs fast
the other level 70 gear gained spiritbond, but that one antiquated did not
it makes no sense
but I haven't actually played any of the phys DPS jobs, so I don't really know how they stack up compared to one another
Again, it’s based on item level. What’s the other gear you’re using?
should i sell old gear that i dont need anymore?
augmented scavean
Yes, unless you like how it looks
it's got 400 item level vs the 290 of the antiquated
well, "sell" is iffy
give it to your retainer, glam, desynth, gc turn in
you should either submit to your Grand Company, desynthesize, or something else
most items aren't worth selling on the market board
It's impressive how frustrating you can make jumping puzzles by having a completely shitty jumping mechanic and make semi precise jumping platformers out of it
You gotta have patience
I was wondering if any of you could help me decide which piece of equipment I should pick from this quest? All of them are better than my current gear so it’s hard to decide
chest
the one that improves your current gear the most
soon
you can either go by better absolute numbers or replace the one which the lowest item level
yeah, all the gear you get as quest rewards is suboptimal
yeah no
compared to the stuff you get from dungeons

35 lvls is a...uh
Whichever one gives you the biggest upgrade
if nothing in those options is better than what you have right now, pick the coins
just grab whatever gear you want, and replace it with dungeon gear as soon as you can
Aight, quick question regarding sub
How would I go about downgrading my standard sub to entry sub
Or can I not do that 
I've been on entry since the beginning, afaik if you downgrade you need to pick which character you want to play
you can't do that

you wait for it to expire
since you are limited to 1 character per server
New to ffxiv. If i buy the expansion, i get the others for free, but I can also buy the older expansions for $24. Does the price of the newest expansion go down if I buy the complete edition or just stays at $40?
then sub with entry
The price never changes
ye
you can cancel it but doesn't that remove your days?
Outside of sales
It shouldn't, no
says it won't
So i should prob just wait 2 months to be cost efficient yeah?
easier to wait until it expires, though i buy my sub a month at a time and don't have recurring payments
If you can wait that long
You're paid up until whatever date, that means you can access the game until that date regardless of subscription status
Ah ok ty
yeah, optimally you should always cancel sub immediately after buying sub
so that you don't get charged when the sub rolls over
The standard/lower sub isn't recurring anyway
it is
the entry one i mean
if you are on steam 😂
sorry
entry is recurring
just wait until your standard sub runs out then I guess
but only monthly
Entry is definitely recurring
non-steam can't have 1 time payment except with crysta
it isn't recurring for me
it's not like there's any real issue with letting the sub run out
you don't lose anything
need to have money in steam wallet
Ok but it is for me
ah, not using steam
does anyone have tips for a Lv20 glad, that needs to make 18k pretty quick right now?
Why do you need to make 18k really quick at that level?
Well, the weekly fashion report ends in a few hours and i am looking to get that regalia from the current event soon, and i need to finish every weekly mission to be able to still get it in time
doesn't have to be super fast, i mean i got about 8 hours left
To be honest, unless you have friends who can loan you some scratch, your best bet is to just grind grind grind through MSQ
money making at low levels is extremely limited
because you usually don't need much
hmm i see. guess ill keep doing story then
if you'd started a bit earlier, I'd have recommended just quickly grinding through MSQ to 45
since you can just use the 45 relic pants instead
oh right you need to finish ultimate weapon as well
You'll need to have finished the level 50 MSQ to do that seasonal quest anyway
to get the noctis car
so best to not neglect that
yeah
do you have any level 45 jobs?
I do not
then yeah, just push MSQ asap
been doing it for the past hours
Short from having a friend buy you the jacket or just straight up begging.... MSQ is probably your best bet
I don't think it's possible to get through the entire 20-50 MSQ in 8 hours
unless you, like, skip every cutscene
even if i begged lmao, i got free trial i can't trade
They don't need to
they just need the gil for the jacket before the fashion report ends
I mean, they probably want to either get 18k or the level 45 job quest within 8 hours
Although you should be aware
You have much less than 8 hours
The game goes down for maintenance in 2½
yeah, you'll probably get 18k before you hit 45
the event is until 18th Oct 😂
And won't come back up until 3 am pdt
oh no maintenance I forgot
Ahh damn
but I don't think it's possible to get fashion report done today
thats unfortunate
Is there any way to like get rid of all the ui so I can take pictures? I’m on ps4 just in case
you got what, 3 reports left?
Just gonna have to make that mgp up with other sources
4 maybe
i mean
as long as you do most of the Gold Saucer weekly challenges
its not that big of a deal
Like doing gates or challenge log or something
you should be fine
like what's hard about making 18k? 🤔
it's still a few weeks still
they're at level 20
and they have like 2 hours
i don't really know what that means tbh
oh yeah, I forgot Adventurer In Need gives bonus gil
question, should I just be accepting all the gc marks even if I don't end up doing them?
basically, the Roulette shows "adventurer in need", meaning if you queue up as that role you'll get bonus rewards
sell all your trash to NPC
if you really want to get gil fast, just repeatedly refresh the duty roulette until it shows Tank as adventurer in need, which shouldn't take long, then queue
that probably works
he's got plenty of time to get 200k mgp for the car, challenge log gives a shitton of mgp for quick stuff like enter 3 races
How do i open Duty window when im not at a dungeon entrance?
hit U
and you want the Levelling Roulette
not the dungeon specific queue
I dunno if you can get the 18k in time, but that's probably your best bet yeah
yeah
You can type /gpose for the camera mode
what's the role in need?
i only got Sastashs unlocked yet though
yeah, you need to unlock at least 2 dungeons
darn
then why didnt i get it yet
just progress the MSQ a bit
i didnt nothing else than main story
you're behind on the MSQ
q_q
nvm, the second is Tam-Tara Deepcroft
Thanks
which is also MSQ
third is Copperbell
the first three dungeons are really close together though
!faq msqtracker
you basically go directly between them

just follow up these 2 and make sure to do the no 2 when they popped
you'll get there, MGP is easy to farm
!faq mgpguide
yeah i always do my calss quest when they pop up
yeah np
Anyone mind helping me decipher what someone's Search Comment means?
Do I need to have started the resistance weapon questline to buy Thavnairian Scalepowder? I'm wanting to get some before I go get my first weapon as the one I want is for a class below 80 so I'm going to use Boja to xp grind. I'm at the splendours merchant in Kugane and can't find it.
wtf is this i can buy lvl 70 account boost ??
Check DM's
I think it’s in endgame only areas
Yes you do
Ye
It's available to buy when you start the second resistance relic for another job
