[twilit arch]

helps a bit

[sharp forge]

or faster way to farm levathian but yeah

[twilit arch]

there's no way to get around the invul stages tho

[sharp forge]

yeah I kill the orb thingys

[twilit arch]

those are hard set, and there to insure groups don't murder themselves by pushing to fast when unsyncing

[sharp forge]

is there any reason to kill the ads?

[faint flare]

In levi?

[sharp forge]

mhm

not the sprume orbs

[faint flare]

Yes cause they place fear puddles

[devout lichen]

am I just bad or tanking brayflox is weird, I was taking so much damage for some reason even with mitigation

[sharp forge]

oh really

[faint flare]

Yes

[sharp forge]

I always wondered what did that lol

[faint flare]

Dreadstorm is the cast iirx

It's why tanks try to stun it before its cast

To buy time

[sharp forge]

I usually just spam aoes to kill the sprume orb things and adds

[rancid ether]

I ran into something earlier and wondered if anyone can help solve it...I was doing Binding Coils with an fc mate who wanted to clear it before getting to Stormblood. We did the first five unsynced with one other person, then unlocked the next four. But when we tried to do them, it said they didn't meet the item level requirement...but their gear was IL 240 and higher. We were really puzzled and I wanted to see if anyone else has encountered this and knows what the cause could be and how to fix it. (edited)

[devout lichen]

is it worth doing bozja on tank classes or dungeon spam is faster

[obsidian patio]

Dungeon spam probably faster

Unless you want to be efficient and get relic stuff at the same time

[devout lichen]

it still should be good though right

[obsidian patio]

Yep

[pearl sigil]

no reason not to mix it up and do both.

[leaden ginkgo]

whats that?

[pearl sigil]

card game. you can play with npcs throughout the world, or other players. go to the gold saucer if you haven't already

[mental spindle]

Is anyone here experienced with Chocobo racing?

[twilit rampart]

if i'm trying to level blm through stormblood content (60-70) what should I do after daily roulettes are done? leveling guides dont seem to mention blm in specific, but they do say dps to use hoh, but isnt blm trash in these deep dungeons?

[faint flare]

No?

[twilit rampart]

to my understanding its the words dps job in them?

worst

[faint flare]

Blm is a dps job

[twilit arch]

that's for Soloing

[faint flare]

It's not

[uncut violet]

i need some help with the sastasha dungeon, not having trouble but I think i need to have a party to do it :/

[twilit arch]

it doesn't have a lot of tools to really help it soloing

you're n not going to be soloing hoh, you're going to want to be with a group

[proud willow]

Duty Finder will find a party for you, you don't need to arrange one before you go in

[twilit rampart]

ok, then refine my question to. What should I do as solo

[uncut violet]

im aware but geez does it take a while

oh well, i wont bug ya

thx anyway

[twilit arch]

Soloing potd/hoh is for the challenge

if you're looking to level, just do matched party

[twilit rampart]

If I want solo. What should I do? Hoh is out of question then?

[twilit arch]

No, its just going to be a bit harder as a blm

[proud willow]

Regardless of job, you can't use potd/hoh to level by soloing

[boreal storm]

All jobs have soloed, some solo easier than others

[fluid breach]

yeah 21-30 hoh in a matched party is good for 61-70 lvling. doing it solo isn't for lvling purposes

[proud willow]

Solo is so much slower than doing it as a party

[slate arrow]

HOH and POTD do not need 1/1/2 comp

[twilit rampart]

not the question Im asking. What should I do for solo level after roulettes are done as blm

[slate arrow]

it just matches any 4 players together

[twilit arch]

use potd/hoh

[slate arrow]

that's why deep dungeons are good for leveling

[faint flare]

Que for stuff

[slate arrow]

!faq altlvlguide

[zinc orbit]

Leveling Guide for alt jobs

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/wiki/leveling

[twilit arch]

when we saying SOLOing we are not talking about LEVELING thru potd/hoh

we are talking about going thru those for the challenge of soloing it

[faint flare]

Yes

[twilit arch]

just do matched party for those

And you will get exp

just fine

[faint flare]

PF and duty finder pulls from all servers on the data centre

Plus world visit

[wintry trellis]

can you adjust parties in delubrume reginae

[faint flare]

You can shuffle people around

Yes

[devout lichen]

is there an easy way to get the chocobo race win because I can never win

[boreal storm]

Have better stats, use items better, RUN

[devout lichen]

well I still just started so like

[wide path]

anyone know if you need to use the emergency removal password when upgrading phone or if there is a more normal way to do it when you still have access to your old device?

[pearl sigil]

they just sent out an alert on that... hang on.

[pearl sigil]

https://eu.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/news/detail/21b8d3e748b0573a9d122053cfafda885f12d262

they tend to push that notice anytime a new iphone comes out.

[deft anvil]

Question - In the various lists of XIV icons-above-names, I see "Sword for Hire (old)". It's not one listed on the website any more, I assume it's either 1.0 or something phased out. What DID "sword for hire" mean?

[wide path]

thanks!

I still only have the first chocobo

[ashen adder]

what mount / achievement are people farming saying 'tank mount farm' doing O3?

[faint flare]

The tank amount achievement

For doing X amount of duties

As a tank

[twilit arch]

https://i.redd.it/21g474ij6us41.jpg

[faint flare]

The "someone's got to do it" and Tank you X style

[twilit arch]

these are the mounts

[spring forum]

Bruh, wheres my dps acheivement mounts

[twilit arch]

nowhere because dps are the most overpopulated role

[uncut violet]

did the dungeon

was fun

nice people

[flint sentinel]

Would I need to buy FFXIV again when I switch over to PC?

[obsidian patio]

Yes.

[flint sentinel]

Okay and it's recommended to buy it on their site and not steam

[obsidian patio]

There’s not much difference between the two if you don’t count sales

Steam has the small advantage of Steam Wallet being usable for subscription/mogstation if you use that a lot

[leaden ginkgo]

hi what is potd ?

[flint sentinel]

Palace of the Dead

It's basically a dungeon with multiple floors with each one become more difficult

[leaden ginkgo]

where ?

is it hard ?

[flint sentinel]

Gridania quarrymill.

And not if you queue with a matched party or friends

It's really good way to level up your second job class

[leaden ginkgo]

thanks 🙂

i will try

[flint sentinel]

Np

[zealous cradle]

Are we not able to glamour over save the queen final stage weapons?

[devout lichen]

do you need to logout to buy stuff from mogstation

[zealous cradle]

@devout lichen Nope

[devout lichen]

not even relog for the thing to come in your mailbox?

[leaden ginkgo]

i don't understand what's arm and armor rating 30/30 ?

[devout lichen]

I assume aetherpool?

[leaden ginkgo]

what's aetherpool ?

[zealous cradle]

No need to relog pregest

[proud willow]

you can do it

[zealous cradle]

Theres this button at the mail moogle you can hit to get your items if its not delivered in 5 mins, usually works

[devout lichen]

yeah it's here now

[zealous cradle]

Hmm @proud willow i cant seem to glam my sch

Weapons even though they are all in my inventory 😦

[devout lichen]

is it an upgrade?

you can't glam things that would be an upgrade

[deft anvil]

A special power level gained inside palace of the dead that only applies in there. It can be spent to create a replica of the palace weapons

[zealous cradle]

Im trying to glam a 535 ilvl weapon to a 1 ilvl weapon ><

[devout lichen]

yeah you cant do that

[twilit arch]

acumen is for smn, not scholar @zealous cradle

[zealous cradle]

OH MY GOD

STAB ME IN THE EYE AND TWIST IT FOR GOOD MEASURE

[devout lichen]

oh, that too I totally knew that

[leaden ginkgo]

I was doing the second coil of Bahamut unsynced, but I keep on dying at the meteor stage on turn 4. Any advice?

[fringe reef]

Hi, how do I make glowing wepons? I have the mats for it but i dont know which recipe i need

[obsidian patio]

A golem cannot eat another golem or more than 3 meteors

If possible, have the golems eat meteors and heal up the damage from any leftover meteors exploding

[obsidian patio]

What weapon in particular?

[agile laurel]

gonna have to be more specific

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks

[pine igloo]

@leaden ginkgo turn 4 is rough because of how it works, you can watch a video of someone soloing it on yt, it helps

[fringe reef]

Hive cane

from ravan

i crafted one but it didnt glow

[faint flare]

It only glows when drawn

[fringe reef]

not sure if i missed anythung

whats that

[faint flare]

When you draw it

Aka have it out

[fringe reef]

draw?

[faint flare]

Not sheathed

[fringe reef]

i dont understand

When you hold it in your hand

Not on your back

[fringe reef]

ah

sad

[past shoal]

Hello, I just got a new laptop (katana GF66, intel core i7) and I can't seem to run the game whenever the AC Adaptor is plugged in. If I try to start the game while plugged, the laptop shuts down. If the game is open (playing on battery) and I plug in the AC adaptor to recharge, same thing happens. I updated everything the best I could like the recent BIOS version, and lowered graphics settings. Not sure where to go from here

[valid kite]

How do I get to the airship landing there's on upper limsa lominsa?

[shrewd cradle]

how do i confirm chemistry in squadron

it's not letting me do it

[faint flare]

Talk to the directly or do it via the training board

[shrewd cradle]

elevator

[shrewd cradle]

yea but it's greyed out

[valid kite]

What's the symbol for that?

[shrewd cradle]

hmm press the MSQ in top left and it should point it on the map for you

[faint flare]

Then they don't have a chemistry to confirm

[shrewd cradle]

idk man

[faint flare]

That's their active and current one

You already confirmed it

The area next to the lightning with the plus

Is where unconfirmed ones go

[shrewd cradle]

than this yellow just shows up regardless?

[faint flare]

You have other people who have unconfirmed chemistry

The blue lightning tells you who

When selecting them

[fresh cairn]

Can people from other worlds not come into the firmament with me?

[shrewd cradle]

ohhhhhhhhh

[faint flare]

No

[shrewd cradle]

i see, i got it thanks

[fresh cairn]

[shrewd cradle]

wait how do they get more chemistry

just dumb luck?

[faint flare]

It was an intentional change cause people were physically blocking others from entering it

[shrewd cradle]

when returning?

[faint flare]

Yes

Rng

[shrewd cradle]

from squadron?

[faint flare]

Rng from any mission

That you send them off

Not training

[shrewd cradle]

do you know if that counts command

can they get it from command ones

[last kayak]

Do Idealized Gear Coffers stack? Or do 5 boot coffers take up 5 inv slots?

[obsidian patio]

Individual slots

[last kayak]

damn, going to have to eradicate an entire retainer for this then :S

[queen fern]

Is it worth getting the Aesthete set now?

I'm trying to upgrade my Skysteel pan but I'm definitely feeling the lack of craftsmanship and control.

[heavy wadi]

is there a way to hide the controls from the cross hotbar? the LT and the RT indictators, etc

https://i.imgur.com/lKQ8w22.png

[faint flare]

No

[heavy wadi]

thanks

[hasty turtle]

can bozja mount speed be increased?

[heavy wadi]

with riding maps

you can buy them for 25 bozjan clusters

there's one for bsf, one for zadnor

[jagged holly]

what stat effects hit chance?
want too lvl my blue mage but my 1000 needles is missing a lot against higher lvl enemys

[spiral inlet]

wait

it costs seals

to send our

out your squad?!

[faint flare]

Yes

[jagged holly]

oh no

[faint flare]

Your level

[jagged holly]

let me jsut spend my 1 item that gives 10000 seals

XD

[faint flare]

Accuracy isn't a stat you can buff anymore

[jagged holly]

seals are very easy toog et with express delivery

[faint flare]

It's just level difference

[jagged holly]

ah sad

lvl 26 Blue mage vs lvl 44 enemysXD

[still sluice]

Is anyone willing to do some leveling with me?

[native belfry]

Anyone ping me with Crystal Tower quest chain file?

[strong crag]

how do I decide what keybind should be where

[faint flare]

It's a personal thing, based on where your hand rests and what's easy to reach

[obsidian patio]

Also hand size

[analog maple]

hello everyone

can someone help me with my account

[obsidian patio]

Some people can hit 6 and 7 easily from hand placed on WASD, some can’t

[ripe hound]

Also ability to embrace weird setups

Like ESDF movement

[pearl sigil]

also, what sort of commands you can easily offload to a mouse

[ripe hound]

I offload ctrl and shift to mouse keys

[analog maple]

i made a russian account and i want to use it on my steam but it gives me an error that your account isnt registerd or something

[lethal birch]

Look at your keyboard and check what keys you can comfortably hit from wasd

[heavy wadi]

hm?

[ripe hound]

Also walking forward is often done on mouse

[analog maple]

and it needs some kind of registery code

[native belfry]

There was a file or something where all Crystal Tower quests were written, but I found it

[ripe hound]

Also does anyone know if there is a mod or something, that makes it so when I hold right click to move camera, my cursor is still displayed?

I come from an FPS background, so when I play I always hold down right click

Then when I try to move my mouse, I need to find my mouse cursor... which makes it hard

So when I try to use the Shukuchin thing in NIN, I always clip

[lethal birch]

I just made my mouse cursor bigger in Windows

[ripe hound]

Man I really want my true gap closer in EW

[lethal birch]

You can also change the color to something that pops more

[devout lichen]

where do you find the right level ashkin and sprites in eureka

I know it's during weather but they are not the right level

[primal gull]

http://ffxiv-eureka.com has maps with levels listed

[wispy shell]

Is there a way to make buffs/debuffs appear on the left of party hud?

[devout lichen]

also how do you get more magia? cuz I'm level 14 and still only have 1

[faint flare]

Do Kriles quests

They're not tracked

[devout lichen]

she has no quest

[strong crag]

is their a chat for posting streams?

[primal gull]

do the quests that Krile gives you

[faint flare]

So you actually have to speak to her

[primal gull]

you should have 3 by now

[faint flare]

And read what she says

Again. They're not marked

Once you "accepted" it

So go back and talk to her

And read what she says

[primal gull]

the maps on the website I linked do say where the magicites are if you aren't interested in hunting for yourself

[devout lichen]

I can't see anything regarding enemies or magicites on that site

[faint flare]

!faq eurekaanemos

Eureka: Anemos Map

[faint flare]

We have these commands to pull maps

"eurekaZONENAME

[regal pawn]

[primal gull]

literally the same map from that website

[regal pawn]

Those are the magicite markers

[primal gull]

Try clicking on the little map icon next to the zone you are looking for things in

[devout lichen]

3 5 13 17 what

[primal gull]

level

[faint flare]

The level

[primal gull]

For the quests

That give magicite

[faint flare]

You would be on the lv3 quest

Cause you haven't gotten any magicite

[primal gull]

As well as for the locations on the map

[devout lichen]

oh, didnt notice those alongside the other things

[primal gull]

There's also an interactive map at https://eurekamaps.com/ but that only seems to have Anemos

so if you want any of the other zones you seem to be SOL

[devout lichen]

alright, thanks

[hasty turtle]

why are some lost actions in bozja unlimited and others have limited uses?

like lost protect can be reused forever despite giving 30m buff

[obsidian patio]

Usually because the actions with limited uses are more powerful

[faint flare]

Cause the limited ones are extremely fucking powerful

Like you now

A 70% damage buff

Which is absurd

[hasty turtle]

most ive got so far is lost bravery

which is a 6m 5% dmg buff

lost actions are meant to be broken as shit

You can use the commands /magiaattack or /magiadefense

[hasty turtle]

jesus

[primal gull]

No need to click through yourself like a sucker 😉

[hasty turtle]

and the dot is applied to all hit by the aoe?

Yes

and it's affected by buffs

Those duels?

Yeah they die in like 15s

[primal gull]

Essence of the Ordained + Lost Font of Magic + Lost Flare Star

A real I win button

Actually you'd want to use Lost Chainspell instead there

But still

[faint flare]

Well you add more buffs to it for the real cheese

[primal gull]

RDM can clear duels pretty easily with that combo

It's hilarious

[faint flare]

Duel cheese use the following

Excellence is 65%
Noble Ends is 50%
Font of Magic is 70%
Chainspell is 100% with Ordained
Ordained is 20%
Manafication is 10%
Embolden 5%
Lv10 Valor 30~%

You're looking at a 350% buff

Minimum

SMN is also a good pick to get flare + dots + phoenix under it

[hasty turtle]

what's the max rank in bozja

[faint flare]

25

Once you hit Zadnor after doing delubrum at rank 10 your mettle gains skyrocket

Cause Zadnor gives a fuck ton

[hasty turtle]

zadnor is a second entire area?

[faint flare]

Yes

[hasty turtle]

progression to rank 10 has been somewhat slow

[primal gull]

It speeds up considerably at 10

DR gives a lot of mettle, and as Vinyl said, Zadnor is crazy good for mettle gains

[hasty turtle]

you mean fates in zadnor give a shitload of exp or do you just get a permanent buff to gains

[faint flare]

Zadnor just gives more mettle

By base

Flat out

[hasty turtle]

so you dont farm in bozja after getting to zadnor

correct?

[faint flare]

Not for mettle

You'll go back to bojza for relic items

For the first 3 steps

[hasty turtle]

makes sense

so i assume you'll level a bit in zadnor to get your hands on powerful skills, then eventually come back to bozja for farm it more efficiently?

[faint flare]

Zadnor only has like 3-4 good skills, in Chainspell, Blood rage and Excellence (and Assassination if you're using Beast)

[woven pollen]

Is there a list of ff14 terms for tank/healer/dps and general boss mechanics? Trying to learn but I'm using a buncha weird lingo instead of it's actual term that's common in FF14. Like the soakers and what not

[faint flare]

!faq markers

[zinc orbit]

Error!

No tag named markers exists, Kupo!

[faint flare]

Fuk

!faq marker

[zinc orbit]

Markers and Signs guide by Aletin 🆘

Markers comprehensive guide

[faint flare]

General markers that show up

[woven pollen]

That's a good read, got it now I won't say soakers and just say stack or towers

[hasty turtle]

soak is used in this game

usually for meteor markers

[woven pollen]

Ah I used it for everything that required someone to tank a mechanic

[faint flare]

It's all interchangeable tbh

People generally know what soaking is

[woven pollen]

I see

[hasty turtle]

the meteor variant of that mechanic is usually more common

[deft quiver]

what should i spend crafter scrips on that sells?

[hasty turtle]

if people dont understand soak it's likely they wont make the connection with meteor = tower

in my experience as a semi new player most people only refer to them as meteor

never heard anyone say tower

[deft quiver]

white crafter scrips

[hoary veldt]

So I uploaded logs on fflogs and everything works fine but for some reason it doesn't show any parses at all. Any reason why this could be?

[alpine shadow]

if its "RMT" then Right Click -> Report -> RMT

or System -> Support Desk -> Report Etc

[dim marsh]

thank you

[alpine shadow]

if you search up "Scam" on "Search FAQ" you can select "Inappropriate Behaviour" and it says "Scamming" under it, and then you can click "File Report"

sounds good, i'll try that

What accessories should I get for lvl 50 DRK. All strength? or Dexerity

[faint flare]

Strength

[boreal storm]

Fending for tanks

[faint flare]

Dex doesn't do anything

That's only for ranged dps and ninja

[zenith halo]

Ah ok so I do this for every tank correct?

at lvl 50

[faint flare]

Yes

Fending is tank gear

[zenith halo]

aight gotcha ty

[serene steppe]

Just so you know you only need to look at 1 main stat for each Job archetype

Tanks and almost all melees use Strength

[zenith halo]

What about when im lvl 80?

[faint flare]

Same thing

[zenith halo]

still strength?

[serene steppe]

Ranged DPS and Ninja use DEX
Casters use Intelligence.
Healers use Mins

[boreal storm]

Strength

[faint flare]

It doesn't change

Your.main stat is your main stat

[zenith halo]

oh the dexerity is that bad?

haha

[faint flare]

No

It's for ninja and physical ranged

[serene steppe]

It literally does nothing on tanks

[boreal storm]

Tanks literally can’t use dex

[serene steppe]

It you want more speed you need to equip gear with Skill Speed as a subdtwt

[faint flare]

Again, jobs only use 1 main stat

The rest are useless to it

[zenith halo]

Ah, i didnt know xD First time lvling tanks

good that i know now

[faint flare]

It's a core thing that runs for all jobs

1 main stat per job

[boreal storm]

If you hover over the main stats in the equip menu, it says who uses what

[zenith halo]

Oh true, thanks actually

[deft quiver]

what mount is that

[open coral]

Looks like Sleipnir, maybe?

[twilit arch]

yes it is

[boreal storm]

It’s $24

[deft quiver]

damn

fuck that

does look cool tho

[ashen ginkgo]

If I buy the game now can I transfer from crystal to aether without waiting the 90 days?

[open coral]

No.

All characters made on Preferred status servers are locked to those servers for 90 days from character creation.

[ashen ginkgo]

Where do you see how many days are left?

[open coral]

Probably on the account management page on the Mogstation?

[sharp forge]

For squadrons does it matter if its above the requirements by a lot or just a little? So if the mission wants 400 and you have 401 does it give the same chance of success as having 600/400. Sorry if this is worded weirdly.

[hasty turtle]

one of the biggest cons of this game is that it has way too many badass mounts locked behind microtransactions

[deft quiver]

yup

im already paying $15 a month plus expansions

and mounts arent cheap eitehr

if they were a few bucks like some cool glams then it'd still be fine

but $25?

nah

ill pass

thats 2 months of sub

and being a college student, that money definitely adds up already

[open coral]

As long as at least two of the values are green (all three for flagged missions) you'll have the same chance of success no matter whether it's over by 1 or 100.

[open coral]

There's plenty of really cool mounts that you can get without buying them off the mogstation...

[compact river]

Getting random FPS drops in shadowbringer zones, the oddest part being FPS drops in cutscenes, specifically during a cutscene in an isolated small cave, so there was not much being rendered. Il Mheg is another zone where random FPS drops occur. Losing 20-30 fps for maybe a few seconds, then back to normal. Hitting 120fps+ at max normally, turned down settings and while I get higher fps (200+) I still get these random frame drops which are very noticable. Not sure what to do

[open coral]

Most mounts only require a time investment.

[hasty turtle]

i'd say the coolest mounts are all obtainable in game without spending

still, some mighty fuckin cool mounts are locked behind mtx

[sharp forge]

jeez my luck must be awful. I can't ever get 3 stats green while farming for battle manuals and with 2/3 green I've never had a successful mission after at least six tries so far.

[hasty turtle]

or the more memey ones

[open coral]

If it's a flagged mission then all three have to be greater than the value listed.

And the only way to do THAT is to outlevel the mission, most of the time.

[boreal storm]

Switch up your team comp, see if that helps

[sharp forge]

It is not a flagged mission

[novel turret]

Is it more efficient to level all Hand jobs at the same time, or to focus one at a time?

[open coral]

Yeah, you can switch up your team comp, and also try farming some of the lower level missions to get better skills.

[sharp forge]

sadly 4/8 of my squadron is lvl 55 and the others are lvl 48ish so I dont think I could swap them out too well

I need to train up the other ones lol

[boreal storm]

Don’t call them that, but yes level together

[open coral]

We generally recommend doing all at once since they're largely interconnected.

[sharp forge]

I looked at the wiki and even with all lvl 60 squadron members I'm assuming it looks still impossible to get all 3 green on lvl 50 missions.

[boreal storm]

2/3 is still a decent shot

[sharp forge]

hmm

well just to be a dummy and ask again to be 100%

as long as its green it doesnt matter how much its over the mission wanted stats

so 1 or 100 no difference

also dumb question but im assuming each one is 33% chance or is it more-so rng?

[boreal storm]

Met requirement means met requirement

[sharp forge]

I'll keep trying 2/3 then til it works ig

[open coral]

2/3 should give you something like a 90% chance of success.

Failing 6 times in a row is... statistically surprising.

[sharp forge]

my luck has always been weird

either im way too lucky or extremely unlucky

never normal

but maybe im still doing something wrong

but it has been 2/3 over stats green everytime

always "bound to succeed"

[open coral]

That might be more of a question for #technology-discussion . It sounds like you may have an issue with your processor or graphics card if it's only happening in very specific instances.

[sharp forge]

Besides pixie are there any other beast tribes I need to do

I dont need crafting xp or really want any of the special mounts currently

[open coral]

Need? You don't need to do any beast tribes, really.

[sharp forge]

Well hmm

in terms of xp are any worthwhile

trying to level some other jobs fast

[faint flare]

Yes all of them

For their level range

[open coral]

I mean, for leveling alts they're all about the same for their level ranges.

[faint flare]

They're very quick and easy xp

Like 5mins for 10%

[sharp forge]

hmm

I'll defiantly do that then

[open coral]

In some ways the older ones are more beneficial, since you have more tribes to go through per day.

Rather than just leaning on the one tribe like you do with the pixies in ShB

You can still only do a maximum of 12 beast tribe quests per day in total, but that's all four tribes for ARR.

[sharp forge]

I might just go the completionism route and do all the AAR ones first regardless of xp

[boreal storm]

No do not

[steep egret]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lu8VIOqOqKQ
ill just leave this here

[boreal storm]

The ARR tribes don’t let you fly in some of their quests

[sharp forge]

oh jeez

[boreal storm]

Also you gotta get FATE rewards for some

[modest igloo]

I just finished the ARR beast tribes myself

[boreal storm]

And then there’s the sylphs

[modest igloo]

Don’t do them

Please god don’t

[sharp forge]

lmao damn

[boreal storm]

All of the above issues doubled

Because the invisibility quests FUCKING SUCK

[steep egret]

but, minions, and mounts

ive not started in beast tribes yet, except for unlocking them

[modest igloo]

Do the fun ones first

[sharp forge]

im probably going to end up just doing pixie and wasting my daily allowances tbh

[modest igloo]

Yep pixies are really good

[boreal storm]

Ixal is good crafter exp though

[sharp forge]

i might do the ixali and other crafting ones just to unlock dyes

i have all my crafters maxed currently :D

Semi-related question but is there a average time it takes to max all beast tribes and custom deliveries?

[scarlet hinge]

Is the best thing to do for 60-80 leveling as a healer just dungeons?

[boreal storm]

Days, several several days

[spare rover]

Can you use tank spells from level 58 in a level 57 dungeon? A healer was telling me to use clemency and I just unlocked it at level 58

[boreal storm]

Lvl sync is a 2-3 lvl range, so yes you would

[spare rover]

In that case it would be better to be 2-3 levels higher than the suggested dungeon level

[boreal storm]

If you’re not overleveled, it doesn’t matter

Just do the dungeon

[open coral]

I'm more interested in why the healer was asking you to use Clemency at all.

[open coral]

Yes, conditionally.

Priority always to roulettes, then spam highest level available leveling dungeon. You can also mix in things like beast tribe quests, and Bozja for 71-80 if you like.

[heavy wadi]

you should ideally, never ever even touch clemency.

if a healer told you to use it then...

[spare rover]

The Black Mage suggested him to stop using Cure I maybe it was that but I assumed you had to be a higher level when doing a dungeon so you have access to more spells

[heavy wadi]

that was a shit or lazy healer.

[open coral]

I'd say ideally you should never need to touch Clemency.

But if they were spamming C1 then yeah, it was a healer problem.

[heavy wadi]

correct

it was a shit healer

[patent citrus]

I reckon he's just saying you should pull slower

but his English isn't that good

[boreal storm]

That’s not a question?

[grave plover]

any way to catch hq fish? cause im not getting any !!! just ! and !!

[faint flare]

That doesn't tell you if it's HQ or not

[elfin edge]

It’s whatever.

unsynced they are all fast af

[elfin edge]

is t3 the jumping down the big chamber one with lots of trash mobs?

[faint flare]

[jade quartz]

Yeah it’s just a simple maze with trash mobs and no boss

The mobs can be ignored

[grave plover]

fishing sucks lel

[sharp forge]

is there even a point to fishing besides desynthing stuff for cul lol

[jade quartz]

!!! Isn’t hq

It’s reserved for rare “big fish” which have special catch conditions

[grave plover]

the fact that each fish is random

and no the one you want is annoying

[jade quartz]

Fishing for rare fish can be enjoyable on its merits, and fish are also relevant to CUL for raid food. Sometimes it rewards unique aethersands for endgame crafting recipes too.

[heavy wadi]

if you want to complain about fishing then #rants

[jade quartz]

That’s how fishing works in real life too ya know.

[heavy wadi]

also big fish can sometimes give gear when desynthed.

[jade quartz]

Either way it doesn’t belong in this channel

[sharp forge]

any important recipes unlocked from fishing?

well

[jade quartz]

Endgame raid food which uses fish, and aethersands for some endgame crafted gear

[sharp forge]

i see hmm

[jade quartz]

Occasional alchemist ingredients like shark oil too

[sharp forge]

the best way to level fishing all the way to max is ocean voyages right?

[jade quartz]

Fish can also be displayed in aquariums or print canvases in player houses.

[jade quartz]

Yeah or buy your way there with levekits

[sharp forge]

hmm interesting

[obsidian patio]

Yeah fisher works like crafters in terms of leves

Where you just deliver items

So you can just buy the fish the leve wants

guessing sleeve card draws

are "better?"

[patent citrus]

your position might slightly to the left https://youtu.be/6g5hceyY1cY?t=1054

[obsidian patio]

Draw is random

Sleeve always tries to give a card with a seal that isn’t a duplicate

So if you got sun and moon seals up, you never get a card that gives those

[past isle]

whats the best thing to do with tomestones of allegory? lol i have 2k but no idea what to do...

Gear if it helps improve item level

If not then check the tomestone materials and buy what sells the best

The materials that cost 20 are the most current and likely the best sellers

The ferry port that leads to the enclave where Hien resides. Dive underwater to the left of it, there should be 3 lv 70 nodes to the west of the port, and 3 lv 65 ports to the south

[last mural]

The idea is the fish out 7-10 of Ichthyosaurs using a large spear rig to spawn a hidden node (which requires Truth of Oceans to be active)

There are 3 possible fish (including the Ichthyosaurs) you can get from using a large spear rig on that node.
Use Veteran Trade to ignore one species of it, so u only have 2 possible fish to find

When the hidden node spawns, u can use any rig u want to find the Dafangshi. Whether they appear as HQ or not is up to RNG

If you run out of spearfishing attempts, u gotta repeat the entire process again of finding the Ichthyosaurs

[tall bridge]

Is it random what Materia type you get from retrieving spirit bound items? I have gotten like 14 Crit 3 but only 2 Determination so far.

for now, the representatives are in: 3 starter cities, foundation, kugane

[open coral]

You can only see it once you've unlocked the ability to use it as a companion, which is done through the level 30 "My Feisty Chocobo"

[ashen ginkgo]

oh ok thanks ^^

[open coral]

Then you'll see its name whenever you have it summoned as a combat companion, as well as being able to see it in the companion interface.

Which job would be easier to learn? Ninja or Blue Mage? I am looking to level another DPS job other than MCH. Also after getting the game does it take a lot of time/quests to unlock Red Mage?

[last mural]

Uh... Blue Mage is a limited job

It can't be used for most regular content

[solar summit]

ninja is lot of fun not hard to learn

[last mural]

As for unlocking Red Mage, no, just have a lv 50 character and talk to the NPC in... Uldah i think?

[spare rover]

Oh that's what they meant with limited

[last mural]

Yeah, it's not a limited time to get the job, but rather it's limited in what they're allowed to do. It's a joke class

[spare rover]

I want to try it while I am still a sprout so I can summon the bunny thing as many times as I can

[last mural]

Red Mage and Samurai are the easiest xpan jobs to unlock, as they only require a lv 50 class, start at lv 50, and they're accessible with ARR
Unlike Dark Knight, Astrologian, and Machinist who are accessible only in HW and start at lv 30

For now go with Ninja, meaning starting as a Rogue. You'll unlock Ninja at lv 30 Rogue.
Once u hit lv 50 as a Ninja, u can unlock Red Mage and choose which playstyle u like

[spare rover]

Thanks, will prob do that. Is there any suggested option when it comes to purchasing the game? I have heard Steam offers good deals although you have to stay with them. Also not sure if I have to purchase each expansion or if there is an expansion pack

[shut panther]

You always have to buy exactly one expansion to be up to date

Of course endwalker releases in two months so you might want to wait for that

[last mural]

You can buy the complete edition currently at a discounted price on the SEnix store

But as mentioned above

the latest expansion Endwalker releases in less than two months

What u can do is get the free trial (SEnix store/steam, up to you, idk what the prices will be like when EW releases), which lasts until Heavensward (Max lv 60)

The free trial alone is like 2-6 months of content depending on how much you play, and how much of a completionist u are

Just know that if u get the free trial from SEnix store, u can't buy the game on steam if u want to buy the game and transfer your free trial over

same for vice versa

[wheat plume]

How can I get the flying motorcycle in Bozja?

[flint sentinel]

Do I need to purchase both the starter edition and Endwalker collector's edition to gain access to all the expansions or just the collector's edition

[open coral]

You would need to purchase the Complete Edition and Endwalker if you want to be able to play Endwalker when it releases.

You do not need to purchase the Collector's Edition of any version, as that simply includes some additional glamour items, minions, and mounts.

[twin bobcat]

Acquire all 50 field notes

[flint sentinel]

Reason being cuz I'm switching over from console to pc

[spare rover]

I see so you have to stick with one of them. Yeah I am on free trial and have PAL AST MCH SCH at level 59 and was considering purchasing the game or stalling a bit more with Ninja. Seems it is better to wait a bit until EW arrives.

Also I have to purchase both the expansion and the suscription right?

[open coral]

You would still need to buy the Complete Edition for PC as well as Endwalker for PC.

[flint sentinel]

Alright thanks for the help

[last mural]

Honestly, i'm relatively new myself, so i don't know how will the expansion price itself

like will there be a new complete edition with EW?

when it releases?

[open coral]

Yes. Once EW is officially released, it will be included in the Complete Edition.

[wheat plume]

Nice, I thought it was more steps for that mount. Thxs

[last mural]

Currently the complete edition is discounted to like $20 iirc, but EW is like $40
Any idea what will the complete edition with EW will be priced like?

[open coral]

Probably the same as it normally is, so $60 when it's not on sale.

[umbral dune]

Still 60$

[last mural]

So... basically the only difference is whether to buy it now, and pay for subscription when the free 30 days from the complete edition expire

[open coral]

No?

Well, yes, since the Complete is on sale.

[last mural]

Yep

[umbral dune]

Get the CE to prepare for EW and unlock level cap for some extra $

[last mural]

But... preordering EW now gets that earring with the XP bonus yea?

[open coral]

Yes

[last mural]

So the question is whether paying for subscription is worth the earrings lol

[open coral]

The earring will no longer be available once the preorder period ends.

[last mural]

@spare rover Welp, you have 2 options to you:

• Buy complete edition now (or while it's discounted and before EW pre-order period ends), and pre-order Endwalker.
  Total price will be roughly $60, and you'll get free 30 days of gameplay from the complete edition. You'll have to pay for subscription after those 30 days though
  In return, you'll get an earring that gives u 30% xp bonus up to lv 79 with pretty good stats

• Keep playing free trial, and when EW releases, buy the complete edition with EW.
  Total price MIGHT be roughly $60, but u'll save on subscription costs, and get 30 days starting from when u buy it

[open coral]

The bonus is until level 80, not 79.

[spare rover]

Yeah I am considering the first option but will I be able to access the previous expansions as soon as I pre order it or do I have to wait until it is released so I can access Stormblood and the rest

[last mural]

i mean technically at lv 80 u stop getting the bonus lol

[long folio]

  @last mural so having CE we can still pre-order EW?

[open coral]

Yeah, but it doesn't stop from level 79 to 80.

It stops at 80.

[last mural]

Complete edition unlocks SB and ShB. Pre-ordering EW gives u access to EW as soon as it is released

[last mural]

Yes. I bought the complete edition 2 months ago. I preordered EW 1 week ago

[long folio]

Ahh right

[open coral]

Preordering EW gives you access 4 days before it releases, technically.

[patent citrus]

but you would want that earring really 😹

[last mural]

Oh yeah, there's also this.

[open coral]

Early access is on 19 Nov. Official access starts 23 Nov.

[long folio]

When pre-order period ends for endwalker

??

[patent citrus]

19 Nov? probably or around that

[open coral]

I want to say like, 18 Nov?

It ends before early access starts, so maybe the 17th, since the 18th is all-day maintenance.

[long folio]

So a day before early access?

Okk

[patent citrus]

like if you plan to buy it, might as well buy it now so you can get the earring and get exp boosts earlier 😹

[umbral dune]

No before official launch nov23

[open coral]

Keep in mind, you can buy it all now, and then just not apply the purchase codes to your account until you're ready to start your 30 free subscription days.

Early access is early access, the bonus of pre order are granted as long as it not official launch yet

[long folio]

like if you plan to buy it, might as well buy it now so you can get the earring and get exp boosts earlier 😹
@patent citrus all the items will be available after endwalker release right?

[patent citrus]

the preorder? no

the earring is only available when you have the preorder code and it will expire when it's released

[long folio]

This I missed

[patent citrus]

https://en.ff14angler.com/index.php?fish=562

[open coral]

The preorder code expires at the end of March 2022 according to the official site.

So you've got a few months after EW releases to hold onto the code.

[spare rover]

Ok so I am on free trial. Let's say I get the Collector's Edition from Steam. That means I get the EXP Earring and if I want I can use the code to get Stormblood now and later on November I will have access to EW. Is that right?

[patent citrus]

ahh good to know

[last mural]

Stop

[patent citrus]

you got the other way around

[last mural]

Collector edition is NOT complete edition

[patent citrus]

if you have the base game, and when you buy the endwalker preorder

[last mural]

U do NOT need to buy collector edition

[patent citrus]

you'll get shb when endwalker is released

[last mural]

It only gives u some extra knick knacks

[open coral]

The Collector's Edition is basically just for extra cosmetics. Every expansion has a Collector's Edition.

[last mural]

Also, yeah, u got it backwards

[spare rover]

Ugh yeah I messed up. Gotta reread all the info

[open coral]

If you haven't "revealed" the key, then yes.

But you'll need to go through customer service to do so.

[last mural]

-Complete edition gives u access to SB and ShB and 30 days of free gameplay
-EW pre-order gives u early access to EW, a minion, and the xp bonus earring

[honest egret]

Is it worth collecting all aether current

[patent citrus]

yeah

[open coral]

Yes. Very much so.

[last mural]

If u want to fly on that map...

[open coral]

That's how you get flying.

[honest egret]

Man it so annoying

I just want to experience the story without any breaks just like in arr

how do you reveal the key, wondering so that I can avoid revealing it

[warped nest]

If you press the item and check for aether current as you explore the map doing msq

[spare rover]

In the Aether Current UI the yellow ones are from quests and the green ones are from the open world right?

Flying FAQ

'How can I unlock Flying?'

Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.

Flying is further unlocked in the expansions through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.

'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'

Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/

[patent citrus]

yeah,

yellow = quests, green = the green whirl one

[patent citrus]

what about cul do you wnat to know?

[spare rover]

Sadge :c I was hoping to get an updated leveling guide of CUL

[patent citrus]

ishgard resto or?

[spare rover]

I am level 30 right now so I just unlock Ishgard resto and farm it until max level?

[patent citrus]

up to you, ishgard resto is the ezmode and can save budget

or you can level conservatively, there are guide for both

[autumn hedge]

Thank you!

[spare rover]

Well, a level 20 CUL recipe I think asked me to have BOT level 45 so I think I should level all of them at the same time. I wonder if the other DoH are like that

[patent citrus]

yeah, I reckon CUL is exception however they still share gears

but all their materials are usually connected to each other, that's why you level them at the same time

[spare rover]

My inventory is gonna suffer then... still on free trial and just leveling CUL took all my inv space I do not know how will I level up the other DoH...

[lapis swallow]

Don't really know if there's a specific channel for this kinda stuff but um is there someone willing to sell me like 2 fire and earth clusters? I'd buy em off the marketboard but they're only selling in bulk.

[dim marsh]

am i able to do the shb role quests whenever after the first one? even if I already finish MSQ?

[twin bobcat]

Yes

[tawdry raft]

So when it comes to Glamour, is it mainly class/role focused or are there a good amount of items that are class agnostic?

[gloomy bridge]

If I'm allied with Maelstrom, can I buy equipment from an Adder's allied seals shop?

[uneven tendon]

Nope

Only if you switch to that GC

[twin bobcat]

Mainly role focused if you're looking for non-casual glamour

[gloomy bridge]

Darn! 😦 If I switched to Adders, will I maintain my Maelstrom rank if I switch back to Maelstrom?

[uneven tendon]

Yep, 14 day lockout and 50k gil to switch back but no other restrictions

First one is free

[tawdry raft]

@twin bobcat ok ty, still trying to understand this whole glamour thing. Like why some items can go in the glamour chest and other cants

[twin bobcat]

@tawdry raft repair your gear

[gloomy bridge]

Gotcha, thanks so much!

[twin bobcat]

If they aren't fully repaired you can't plop it in there

[tawdry raft]

I always try my best to have my gear fully repaired

Also is there a way to remove a server role on discord cuz i switched data centers

[solid basin]

must I complete Pagos weapon to move to Pyros? Also, do I need to complete Pagos weapon to get/complete Pyros weapon?

[twin bobcat]

Well I can't help you further in that regard unless
A. You really forgot to repair the armor piece
B. We have a communication error wherein your confusing the armoire and the glamour chest

[twin bobcat]

Don't need to complete the weapon to progress, but completing the Pagos step is required for the Pyros weapon

[tawdry raft]

@twin bobcat let me log in an check what its called

[solid basin]

ah alright

[graceful sail]

Is there any other way to get Yorha gear sets apart from getting lucky in the raid?

[twin bobcat]

Get lucky

[dusky belfry]

are we not allowed to upload logs ?

like is the tier closed

[tawdry raft]

@twin bobcat ok so yes i was confusing them and i definitely dont know what the difference between them is

[floral snow]

Will items like the Cassie Earrings etc. become bound to you if you try to use them?

[proud willow]

if you get a kill while wearing it, it will bind

[dusky belfry]

nvm i misread

[red spear]

ive heard something about ||The Company You Keep|| msq, is there the player will get the ||Chocobo License|| as well. is that true? or have i misunderstood something? i prefer answer in spoiler(s) as well, in case others have’t been to this part 🙂

[slate arrow]

!faq mount

[zinc orbit]

Mounts FAQ

When can I get my first mount?
The quest that allows you to use mounts, ''My Little Chocobo'', is unlocked by completing the level 20 main story quest ''The Company You Keep''. The quest is located at the Grand Company base you chose, and you'll need to buy a Chocobo Issuance from your Grand Company Quartermaster. You can get the 200 required Grand Company seals by doing the main story quest that comes immediately after ''The Company You Keep''.

Are there any differences between mounts?
Some mounts allow multiple people (2/4/8) to ride at once, with all mounts having the same movement speed. A partial exception to this rule is the SDS Fenrir, a mount from the Mog Station. The SDS Fenrir acts as if you have the first mount speed boost obtained from completing specific quests in the story, making it a bit faster than other mounts, but only until completing the relevant story quests for that zone.

Can I make my mount faster?
Zones have one or two ranks of mount speed that increase the ground speed of mounts. The first rank comes from completing specific quests in the main scenario quests, with the second rank coming from Riding Maps which are bought with either Allied Seals, Centurio Seals, or Bicolor Gemstones. Mount Speed Boosts do not increase the flying speed of mounts.

[red spear]

thanks for not making it in a spoiler as i requested the answer should be in @slate arrow 🙄😬

[boreal storm]

Everyone knows about mounts

[slate arrow]

I don't control the bot.

[boreal storm]

It’s not a spoiler

[twin bobcat]

If you can't go on because you got spoiled on how to get a mount I'll be baffled

ohh nice, finally get it. thanks

What appears in the party list to make it longer than 8 players + pet summon?

[last brook]

Can I have apartments in my House without registering the house as the FC house?

I ran out of room and need to make a bathroom.

Actually, I think it's best without a bathroom. ffxiv players be weird. nevermind.

[amber portal]

[For leveling another class] Do people prefer to do dungeons as they progress + job quests to get exp? or is it better to rinse repeat PotD? I'm guessing the latter is slower but requires less attention? But are dungeons really that much faster? Thanks guys

[wispy shell]

Is there a way to reduce the amount of buffs displayed in the party list too? Or rearrange the buffs to be on the left side of the party list?

[tawdry raft]

Is there a way to turn off new skills being auto added to hotbars?

[slate arrow]

no, unless you already have the skill on your hotbar ahead of time

[slate arrow]

yes, character config > party UI, and no, right side only

[wispy shell]

5 is min buffs to have

guess im making the party list UI 80% or something then

How about the enemy list? Can I limit how many can appear there?

[neat patrol]

Wasn't the car added to the Golden Saucer reward pool?

[pure zenith]

both are used, daily roulette is first of course
potd is really mostly for 1-50 for the dps classes since tanks and healers have faster dungeon queues
for 60-70 you also have the stormblood beast tribes which are pretty good exp
and for 70-80 people love using bozja to level
and I could just do the leveling bot command if I remembered it

[pure zenith]

its the ironworks npc

in the gold saucer

you have to finish the event questline first to access the wares

[neat patrol]

Is the mount farmable to a trial player as well?

[warped nest]

Exp/time wise, dungeons will always be the best way to gain exp, so we recommend tanks and healers to stick with dungeons because they usually get quick queue time. The cut off point between dungeons and potd/hoh is about 15-20 minutes, so if your dungeon queue is 15 minutes longer than your potd queue, then you can consider potd

[pure zenith]

the only requirement is being level 50 and beating base arr

anyone can partake in the event as long as they hit that

[neat patrol]

Ok, Good, I've still got about 100 more quests to go tho XD

Is the event limited time?

[pure zenith]

you only need to beat base arr not post arr

[pure zenith]

yes till like october 18

[neat patrol]

Oh, I'm not sure how to tell which is base & post

[rugged crypt]

Feels like I've been doing poorly as a DRG recently, anyone know where I can find the rotation

[pearl sigil]

credits will roll

[warped nest]

Weskalber, on YouTube

@rugged crypt

[rugged crypt]

Big ups man

[pure zenith]

if you hit the first set of credits you finished base, if you hit the second you finished post

[warped nest]

They have beginner guides

With how to do rotations as you level up

[viscid nexus]

I went to purchase a couple items on mog station and it's telling me I need to upgrade to a standard account. But I already did. I even have Sbr collectors edition.

[pure zenith]

did you actually activate those purchases or just bought them

[viscid nexus]

I activated them. PS4 client forces you to confirm on login.

I know I have a standard account because I'm in an FC.

Also I can do things like invite to party and send friend request.

[amber portal]

Thank you for the advice!

[storm lance]

anyone know what song plays in The Slice is Right?

[viscid nexus]

I was able to just enter my info and purchase it anyway.

shrug

[storm lance]

maybe they meant standard squenix account, not standard game, as in it has enough credit card info

[median surge]

Hey guys, I see that there is a sale of 50% of the collector edition of the game, I'm currently on free trial, this collector edition upgrade is only for people who already have the game?

[last mural]

Collector Edition is not the same as Complete edition

[neat patrol]

Wait, Is DK and Mechanist also unlockable after the "base" ARR, or the full completion?

[last mural]

Complete edition gives your account full access to the game including SB and ShB expansions
Collector edition is the same, costs more, but comes with additional (but potentially worthless) knick knacks

[pure zenith]

full

cuz you have to reach the first city of heavensward the expansion

[neat patrol]

Ok, Thought so, I was thinking "Wait, Could I have gotten them this whole time as well?" lol

[neat patrol]

Makes sense

[pure zenith]

however heavensward jobs are the only ones to need this

[median surge]

Ohhh I thougth that I could buy the game with a 50% discount xP thanks for the clarification between those 2

[pure zenith]

if you own stormblood/shadowbringers then you can actually already get the stormblood jobs at level 50

[last mural]

Pretty sure complete edition is also discounted now

Which store are u buying from?>

[pure zenith]

yeah complete should have a 60% off discount rn on the square enix store

[knotty elk]

Yes I bought the complete edition for a big discount, not sure how long the sale lasts

[pure zenith]

this is like the 5th sale, the last one ended like 2 weeks ago or so

[last mural]

Yep, NA store still shows discount

idk about Steam though

[pure zenith]

the has practically gone on sale for like 3-4 months now with like a week or 2 of break in between each sale

[neat patrol]

Yeah, I'm just gonna try to absolutely clear as much as I can from base and HW, before I upgrade, since I have unlimited time to catch up on all it and not waste money and time on what I could of done freely at first. 😉

[knotty elk]

I think steam still has it full price, at least in Aus

[pure zenith]

yeah steam unfortunately goes on sale less often than the square enix version

[median surge]

Ohhhh niceee

I'm gona buy it now!

Thanks guys 🙂

[last mural]

In a way, smart. Discourages people from using the steam platform, but still offers people a way to buy the game on steam if they're adamant about using it

But also dumb, making people jump through hoops to buy their game

It's always funny how FF14's biggest problem isn't even with the game itself, but how mind-numbingly frustrating/confusing it is to buy their game

[pure zenith]

if you log in with your ffxiv account on the square enix store the whole purchasing is very fast

[knotty elk]

I tried to buy the game a couple weeks ago and mog station straight up wouldn’t take my card. It was weird bc I tried again yesterday just to check if it still wouldn’t go through but it did and now I have the game haha

[last mural]

But watch out, if u plan to buy further expansions, remember which store u originally bought the game on. If you bought from NA store and buy an xpan on EU store, they won't work together

[knotty elk]

I make sure to go from launcher then use their redirect to store just to make sure

[last mural]

As for why this very specific case? I got redirected to EU store despite being from Asia trying to access the NA store, causing me to get confused about which store i originally accessed it from

To make things worse, my Mogstation account logs into both platforms...

[storm lance]

dang really? I better keep that in mind;;;

[last mural]

I mean a way to check which store u originally bought from is to check your purchase history of your account on the store

naturally only the store u originally bought from will have the complete edition in the purchase history

[pure zenith]

you dont buy the game through mog station

wait what exactly did you buy

[knotty elk]

Whichever, don’t remember the name but it’s the one that redirects from launcher when you click “Upgrade to Full Game” or something

[storm lance]

well I bought it as a guest heh.....

[last mural]

...

[pure zenith]

ah then it should be fine then

[obsidian patio]

Nope

[steep egret]

doesn't mogstation list what region your square enix account is from?
id assume that is where you should buy expansions for/form

Mogstation > squareenix account settings > account information
verify your bday, and itll list account details like, "Your registered Region"
or does that have nothing to do with where you buy the game from

[rugged flicker]

Why does the Monster Hunter armor have two different sets for both sexes? Doesn't really seem to be much of a point...
