i just pressed purchase land and it happend.
So, I'm at "The Ultimate Weapon" now, Would I be able to finish it and do the event quest, plus submit to the Fashion week, or is it too late? As well as, Where's a link to the weekly guide of what to wear for max MGP?

I talked to them and they said they haven’t even received any notifications from the store
that event ends on october 18th
!fr in #kupo-bot-spam
Yes, you have time. The judging for this week doesn't start until tomorrow.
anyways will relinquish the land will bring my gil back
Oh, So, Can you submit on any day of the week of Monday-Friday, or just on Friday?
It will give you back some of the gil you spent. Not all.
You can submit from Friday through Monday.
my my i will do it
is there a way to get the notifications for MB sales to appear upon login? or is that only when an item is sold?
Then we get a new fr on Tuesday.
!reset
19 minutes, 38 seconds
5 hours, 19 minutes, 38 seconds
4 days, 17 hours, 19 minutes, 38 seconds
17 hours, 19 minutes, 38 seconds
2 days, 11 hours, 19 minutes, 38 seconds
2 days, 5 hours, 19 minutes, 38 seconds
1 day, 22 hours, 19 minutes, 38 seconds
18 days, 12 hours, 19 minutes, 38 seconds
49 days, 17 hours, 19 minutes, 38 seconds
Ok, Good, Now, For the Fashion, Is it always "easily obtainable" items and dyes to complete it with max, or can it require a good grind to get the set for the week? I still haven't even checked out how to get dyes and all that yet too lol

easy 80 is usually pretty cheap
and thats max mpg
mgp
There's always an "easy 80", which will usually only be a few thousand gil at most.
Typically it's like, 500 gil to get what you need. Maybe some dungeon runs as well if there's a dungeon piece involved.
So you need 80 score at least, to get the bonus 50k MGP proc? The video I saw he had the max 100 score.
60k
100 is only if you want the title.
100 score gives you a title
And you can only get that once.
Oh, That makes sense
80 gets you the 10k participation + 50k bonus.
10k + 50k at 80 or more points
Ok, So I just need to shoot for the 80, not 100, good
Don’t forget to cactpot
Do that, some challenge logs, and the daily and weekly cactpots and you should be set.
Yeah, What's "Cactpot"?
It does ask for the billing address though, which requires a name.
Lottery
Oh, I guess some weekly submission for random MGP?
There's two, there's the weekly Jumbo Cactpot, which is your typical "pick a 4-digit number and hope it matches at least in part with the weekly number" type of lottery. You can buy three tickets for that and be guaranteed a return of at least 3k MGP.
Nice
Guys will 1M gil be enough to get me started with like basic furniture for a room in an FC house? (excluding the 300k)
Then there's the daily Mini Cactpot, which is a scratch card lottery, where you try to get the highest possible value by revealing 4 spots on a 9 spot grid, then choosing a line you think will have a number corresponding to the highest gil value (1-2-3 is the best, offering 10k as a reward, 7-8-9 is second best offering 3600)
Jumbo Cactpot cards are 150, 200, and 250 MGP apiece, while the daily Mini Cactpot cards are only 10 MGP each, up to 3 per day.
You can never lose MGP playing the games in the gold saucer. You'll always net positive.
Not sure of the other rewards of the Golden Saucer, but I'm gunnin' for that car 
Yeah, That's amazing
Getting the 200k MGP you need for the car in the next two and a half weeks is entirely possible.
It'll be a little rough, since you'll come up a few thousand short if you only do fashion report (at this point you can only get 3 weeks of fashion report, so 180k), but you can easily make that up with cactpots and the gold saucer challenge logs.
And depending on your game progress, some easy 80s won’t be so easy
Especially if you’re a trial player
Yeah, Trial currently doing "The Ultimate Weapon" quest, at level 53 on Bard
Some of the "easy" 80s definitely won't be so easy then.
Since they'll require higher level items than you have access to.
And nice people can’t just trade you the stuff
can I return a retainer from a venture?
is hoh or potd the one that looks all white and stuff
you dont really need to
you can still use the retainer as normal when they are on a venture
i can't put items on the retainer while on a venture though
both HoH and PotD change their appearance depending on which set of floors you're on
so they both white?
No

Weird, Idk why it shows up as a file I can't open when I download the pic lol
this one is very fast up too date when the new one comes out
That’s last week
Quick question im levelling an alt how long would it take to go from new character onto end of shadowbringers?
No
So, We don't know what we need for the report until Friday, then have to farm it on Friday, although it's available Monday-Friday?
it's not available for judging until friday.
@boreal storm does relinquish land will give me some gil
Friday to Tuesday is judging period
you physically cannot do FR before friday
how do I have it so my character stops looping their last action the instant I start Gpose
its so annoying
Yeah, But I mean, You don't even know what's needed til' Friday either?
like every time
No
purchase game via mog station is the easiest way right?
the last quest i did here was frozen heart https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Ishgardian_Restoration_Main_Quests but i dont see the next one it doesnt show
i dont understand
!quest the making of a market
Francel is ever looking upward toward new heights for the Firmament.

do the forums just straight up NOT work? Im trying to select my 'main character' but its not letting me
Where can I buy a lvl 60+ botany tool and off hand?
Stormblood, MB
MB?
market board
so basically all classes can be unlocked as long as ur in ishgard ?
Oh okay. What's the vendor name/type in stormblood?
@spiral mango I think the last two jobs are available when you hit 60
if you sit down and stand up before gposing, that will reset your last action so your character won't move
ah
ty
as long as you have the expansion required for the expansion job you can unlock that job
heavensward jobs are the only ones that actually require you to reach their expansions content, the rest only have level requirements (50 for stormblood and 60 for shadowbringers)
if you had 30£ to buy the game / microtransactions what would you buy ?
Hello what can i do with all of this ?
id wait tille endwalker release and but complete edition unless im sure ill have enough for endwalker separate from my current complete edition purchase
desynth/sell
I don’t see any gear set markers
Make gear sets before you sell anything
it's cause they're probably old lul
But why they got so many dupes of very outdated gear

when retainers bring back crafted items from quick ventures
are they just always HQ if the retainer's ilvl is high enough
How to find a healthily populated FC? I'm looking on the community finder, and even tho a few the FCs say they have 150+ active players, you check it out and it's actually 30 active players and 120 people who haven't logged into the game in months.
So I am trying to pre-order Endwalker but in checkout section I don't see my Country in list. I
to be fair, this is the time in the patch cycles where there's not much to do if you're caught up
A question. Suppose I migrate my account from Odin to goblin, will I still be able to maintain my dad's fenrir bike ?
So I can't pre-order it seem?
so most people are doing other things
Yes, everything comes with you
Only need to give up housing and leave your fc
Depending on your country some won’t come up on the list. I’m from PH and I had to set my region as SG.
Oh
Depending on your country some won’t come up on the list. I’m from PH and I had to set my region as SG.
@knotty elk so I can select any random country?
Not random per se, I think there are limitations on payment like if your card or bank doesn’t do well with international transactions
Meaning the info will be valiadated with card info?
Seem I won't be able to pre-order
Start with the store where you bought your game from. If you bought from NA then make sure to pre-order from there.
Someone else mentioned earlier today that it’s important to buy all your expansions from the same store
I think that’ll show up in your purchases tab
sooo my camera angle is like this dont mind keybinds, im remapping cuz mouse
how do i fix this
fix what?
my camera angle
what's wrong with it
its not even slightly centered
thanks
i prob disabled those keybinds
great
its ctrl arrow for me, but thanks its fixed
Aside from the wind-up pixie, are there any other minions that are fairy-like?

i am there now what
tinker’s bell and wind up sylph
have you done those quests leading to unlock el tou?
Ehl tou need shb afaik?
i have all expansions
ehll tou is unlocked
i want to unlock the other guy
Heavensward (Count Charlemend de Durendaire)
hmm, any chance you have already started the unlock quest?
Also there's an unlock quest at the entrance, would recommend doing that as well
already did
thats a white quest
No, the middle one
Those sharply pointed ones unlock functions of the restoration
it's clearly different tho
oh
You can ignore the right one
I just hit level 80 and finished the story. I havent done any thing outside dungeons or trials that come with MSQ is there anyone who would like to vc and teach me where and how to start and explain me how they work ? im a complete newbie
!faq contentunlock
Where to unlock stuff
but different white symbol
it's not a white quest
i need to keep this in mind to do them
you don't need a vc, read
i do
There's nothing special
i have trouble with allot of text
especially stuff i dont understand
i mean i would just google it otherwise hence i asked if someone wanted to vc
there's people in vc you can probably join and ask questions?
that wouldnt be a good idea i think because its allot
they might be busy aswell
thats why im asking i dont want to cause any inconvenience
well you can't be sure without joining, doubt anyone wants to be the volunteer personal customer support line lol
Do you mean appearance wise? because if so, just glam over it with something
im confused with the bottom part regarding range
are they talking about the range to apply it
or the range for the effect
to take place
Both
If you go out of range, you break the cover
And stop taking damage in their place
You're tethering yourself to the target
Whenever you get clemency but even then you don't use it
is it that bad?
In group content, yes
an extra heal is surely always worth it
Lol no
It's not your job
Your job isn't to heal others
Like how it isn't rdm job to heal others
It's great solo
Shit for grouped content
Which you can use to hit stuff
It kills your dps
you don't use it unless your healer's dead and you'll be dead
It's simulatiously the best and worst heal in the game
not a game question per say, but can the recruitment channel be used to search for a static rather than just a FC? Sorry I'm new to the discord.
Mobs
An add(itional) mob in a boss fight
ok ill reprahse
an extra
bursty heal
is cool
sometime
right
and it heals urself too
Only If your healer is fucking dead or a complete braindead monkey who can't push buttons to save their own life
for crafters is the aesthete's or handsaint's offhand better?
Aesthete in every slot cause melds
Scrip gear is catch up
yeah and once you have overmelded aesthete's set that's really all you need for crafters
Hi guys. Don't get mad, it's just what I feel. I played a good chunk of the MSQ, gave it a chance and tried my hardest to enjoy the story, but I simply can't get into it. I've skipped every dialogue and cutscene in every MMO I ever played. I've never been a story guy to begin with in any game. Can anyone speak for whether this game and its endgame content can be enjoyable without the story? Any long time players who like the game for mostly the content and not story?
How do you get to the point that you can craft end of expansion crafting gear? I bought my aesthetes this xpac but I want to craft come EW
Plenty of people don't care about the story
How far into the story did you get?
And what level are you
I'm just a little bit into HW, and I know ppl say that's where the story gets good, but at the same time, I don't think I care enough for the story or characters to make HW feel good to me.
You'd be surprised
But if you really feel confident, no one's gonna knock you for skipping
As long as you learn your job still, that is
I can't speak for myself, since I personally do enjoy the story, however a large number of WoW endgame players have recently started playing, purchased skips, and went straight into Savage content and seem to be enjoying themselves so there's that.
You kinda skipped the HW set up, but like...
I am a WoW transplant, that's for sure
hw is definitely where the story picks up.
You just want to do the fights, that’s you
Both Limit and Echo's players are the ones I'm referring to. They've been having a lot of fun just doing the raids.
I personally liked ARR, even if the corrputed crystals and the goddamn feast drove me up the wall
ultimately, though, note that you will not be able to avoid story if you buy a skip. you'd need to do the current story content to get to endgame.
and I'll forever mourn the fake scions content that was cut
im not planning to skip, i just dont have the time or interest to read all the dialogue and cutscenes. but i really want to experience what the game has to offer endgame
if you're going through the game, you might as well read the story
Then you might as well skip
The MSQ gives you a lot of the context for why you're doing the endgame things. But the endgame things are still enjoyable even if you skip.
It's really personal preference, although the majority of us long-term players will highly recommend not skipping.
thanks. people shit on me in reddit for even asking. this game looks so cool but im just not a story person
This isn't like WoW where the motivations for things are black and white. There's a lot of gray shades.
i love the outfits, the jobs, the raids
the story is ultimately a major part of this game.
New game plus always exists
I mean, we're also technically Reddit. We're just... a little more used to being nice about this stuff.
This is a Final Fantasy after all, the story is huge and matters greatly
Yeah you can always go back and look at it after in new game +
yeah i enjoyed ff7 and ff10 as a kid, just dont have enough time anymore
If you like those things, then go for those things. As other mentioned, NG+ is a thing, so you can always go back when you have time and go through the story again to pick up the things you missed if you want.
Or you can just watch cutscenes later in an inn room.
That'll cover a big chunk of story content.
Hi, we're having trouble trying to enter PotD with a full fixed group. What does Open Progression data slot mean?
Does anyone know when next steam sale for Shadowbringers might be for that expansion?
Save slot
Save file for each person
It means one or more of you don't have an open "save" for PotD.
Whoever doesn't will need to delete one of their existing "saves".
Are there class limitations? Cause we all emptied a slot too.
Steam sales tend to be infrequent at best.
No there isnt
I think the only class that can't do PotD is BLU.
As long as no one’s a BLU or non combat
Well that
Thank you hopefully one will happen soonish.
It might when endwalker’s launch comes sooner. Fingers crossed
I just hit level 80 and finished the story. I havent done any thing outside dungeons or trials that come with MSQ is there anyone who would like to vc and teach me where and how to start and explain me how they work ? im a complete newbie
Late but
You can do "endgame content" as soon as lv50 if you do extreme trials synced, some people go as far as MINE (minimum ilvl, no echo). Plus coils are savage by default, kinda
how many HoH runs do you need between 60 and 70?

Thanks for the response! I'm not too familiar with the mechanics you mentioned but I'll know what to look up now.
is there a way to change your date of birth i just noticed my character has the wrong one
It doesn’t matter, it’s just RP flavoring
i know but juts saying xD
is doman enclave not available through clicking on the world map? i know i can select it in the top left or just use the teleport list but it's unusual that there's not even a zone connection arrow in yanxia for it
you can't change classes on the same save slot
oh
you would have to use the second slot or delete and start over from 1 (or 51 if you beat the 50 boss)
but I can continue to 61-70 if I use a different save slot?
its connected by boat so you gotta click the boat icon
no you gotta start from either 1-10 or 51-60 on that new save slot
that boat icon isn't clickable
it works for me
hm, maybe it changes later, i only just arrived in the version of the enclave with the aetheryte
Is there an option to hide this when hovering over your hotbar?
I really like hunting horn in monster hunter, what job is closest to that weapon?
UI settings -> untick "Display action help"
or just pick a specific place where it's shown when you hover so it doesn't bother you
is elemental eureka gear hard to get?
I'm not a MH pro but hunting horn was very support and buff heavy, right?
Well first of all, ultimately every job is about dealing damage
That being said, both Bard and Dancer have a very buff heavy theme to them
I also like using big melee weapons
Bard with constantly active songs that buff the whole party, and dancer with having a dance partner that benefits more from you
but also party buffs
that's more important than buffs imo
Well if you want big melee weapons take a look at Warrior or Dark Knight
^
neither is particularly concerned with buffing your party though
bard is more of a bow class from what i've seen
it is exclusively a bow class
every job has one specific weapon it uses
weapon type I should say
Dancer
trying to do the amaro grind, hit the eternal wall of the ARR dps
Weapon types are exclusive to their jobs
while technically being ranged, it uses 2 melee weapons
is the best way to get them all from 30-60 just floor 50-60 potd spam?
is it a melee weapon if it keeps throwing them at people? 😄
and you do simon says for your support buffs
or are there faster ways/better floors to farm
kinda like hunting horn
Yeah kinda like hunting horn
dungeons would be faster if you can assure short queue times
short meaning less than 15 minutes
so for my conjurer, dungeon spam, elsewise potd
unless I can convince a friend to repeatedly healer queue privilege me
pretty much, if you are solo on a dps job then potd will be faster
still want a full party for potd though I presume
unless the enemies scale down if you go in solo?
there is no adjustment whatsoever
f
but party composition doesn't matter which is why potd is preferred for dps
can just run it with 4 dps for example
huh, so you don't even really need a healer to survive it?
nope
neato
I assume you start to if you're trying to hit 200
but good to hear you can just kinda 4 dps 50-60
healer is a nice to have but not required if people are competent
(btw, the achievement for clearing potd up to floor 200 solo is one of the rarest in the game because it do be kinda hard)
the problem is the random people you get will not always be competent
I just finished getting the last of my classes their job stones, anyway
I know you can do potd from level 1 but it feels like actively griefing if you go in their with your kit capped at level 30
plus menphina earring/friendship circlet makes those first 30 levels go fast
there's also a +30% below 30 ring from the hall of the novice
D:
So the other day people told me that the rested EXP was shared between Combat & Doh/Dol classes. My wife is pointing out to me now that she has rested EXP on her Paladin and Culinarian, which she has played very little recently - and she has no rested EXP on her Fisher. Was the previous advice given to me incorrect?
is she level capped on fisher
no, she's only 73
can i unlock astrologian after doing the main ARR quests? or do i have to do the post-ARR stuff before heavensward?
You have to reach HW
you need to complete all ARR
rested xp doesn't care about what job you currently are
it's just a percentage based thing
Ok but she's a lvl 73 fisher, and a lvl 72 paladin. Why does her Fisher not have any rested EXP, but her paladin does?
must be looking at things wrong, when the rested xp is enough to get you to the next level, the bar changes color to blue
!faq restedexp
'Why does my EXP bar have some blue or faded yellow in it?'
That's Rested Experience, which is an extra source of bonus experience shared between all of your classes. You gradually earn this while inside a sanctuary (town or area with a major aetheryte), regardless of whether you're online or not. Sanctuaries are also indicated with a crescent moon icon near your experience bar.
'How much of a boost is it?'
The most amount of rested experience you can have at once is one and a half levels of experience. That means that lower level jobs use up the rested experience faster than higher level jobs do.
Oh, I thought rested EXP was always blue.
it's yellow when it's not enough to reach the next level and blue when it goes over to the next level
no idea why that is
thx for clari
this is how it looks when it doesn't reach the next level
what do u buy with white gatherer scrips if u dont need the gear anymore
Can friends from other worlds(same dc) come to a wedding? Someone told me you gave to give them the invite right before because it disappears if they go to their home world, and I jsut want to double check that that's correct.
They have to be from the server that the wedding occurs on
which mount is blue doggo
are you talking about the ixali direwolf?
Reveling Kamuy
idk, people in fc are farming for blue doggo
what happens if i click this complete button
these two are blue
shows what quests you've completed
Anyone have any tips for Lvling to 50 for a new class? I'm at 22 and feel like I could be going faster. Thanks in advance.
When do you want to use an ability like Shirk (delivers 25% of enmity to target party member)?
Is there anything special you get for getting all crafters and/or gatherers to 80?
on tank swap
so you can continue doing full damage without fear of ripping the boss from your co-tank
I've yet to tank solo, let alone multi but I understand it has some use to switch around. So basically if you're off-tanking and want Main tank to keep enmity up?
no, when you're currently tanking the boss and want to swap with your co-tank, so they tank instead
for example if a boss has some sort of stacking mechanic and you have a bunch of stacks
for me, just doing hunting logs, job quests, leveling roulette and my highest level dungeon available at any given level will do plenty for me
Yo uget an achievement (I just today got Miner up as my last DoL.
Oh right, that makes sense.
Oh, just an achievement? RIP
Oh well, not like it's gonna stop me from maxing them all anyway...
Cool. Thanks! Yeah I figured it might be those. Just wondering there was anything else I was missing. Guess I'm just popping those xp boost and gear and grinding
Have fun when you hit 47 and get to do Aurum Vale 👀
just wait until after the second tank uses their provoke to do shirk for maximum effect. otherwise, if the second tank wasn't generating enmity on the boss and was doing some sort of mechanic, your shirk will be somewhat pointless
Yeah I can see that beign a part. I won't do any group tanking for now until I learn it, but good to know what the ability is for. Thanks!
You get titles from them
ooh titles are nice
I can think of like 1 normal fight that wants you to tank swap and even then you can easily just ignore cause it still doesn't do a lot of damage
there are no shb wolf mark items?
Its soul of the craft for doh but im not sure about dol
Ive yet to finish fisher but im assuming its soul of the land or smth
I'm still confused on chocobo breeding / racing. So my mount "company chocobo" is the one I'll be using for race? or breed?
the shb wolf mark items aren't normal gear they're just glam items
no, different chocobo
well where they at cuz they aint at the normal npcs
those only have up to stormblood
they should be
What do tanks do during tank busters btw? Not sure how hard those hit and how much mitigation is expected.
the armor npcs have them
How do I get the chocobo for racing / breeding then?
There are no pvp shb weapons
ah
are the lvl 70 crafting gears sold in Crystallarium or somewhere else?
depends on the boss really, but they usually use at least one of their defensive cooldowns
From scrip? There are decent crafter set from scrip exchange
go to the gold saucer and take the elevator to the upper floor where the chocobo race counter is
Any defensive one? Like 20%/30% reduction is enough?
Or do they save more to reduce more (not sure if cumulative or not)
they are cumulative
you gotta talk to an NPC that's in the room with the trade counter, the first room you walk into
if you are geared for the dungeon in whats recommended with any mitigation a tank buster shouldn’t kill you. It might get you low but your healer should be able to keep up easily if you use a mitigation.

That's good to know, thanks
Hmmm.. I might have been missing something. I'll try to retrace. Thanks
I'm just starting Gunbreaker and will only do dungeons until I learn tanking basically.
Dungeons are baby shit
tanking in trials is easier than tanking in dungeons tbh
Turn on tank stance and aoe away
Keep the boss faced away and dont overlap mitigations will get you through 95% of dungeons and trials
Really all the basic stuff you need to know
Some bosses are different but it works
If you are nervous watch a guide beforehand but its more fun doing it blind imo unless its extreme or savage
If you're really wanting to get comfortable it's a good idea to find a healer you trust to tag along with
You know what they can handle and they'll learn what you can handle fairly quickly
Would farming AP for grips be easier in lower PotD floors?
Does road to 70 work in eureka?
Some people also choose to learn in squadron dungeons at low levels to get the basics also. Lot of good low stress ways to learn.
nope
W2W is the norm.
On average you should pull at least 2-3 packs
If you're not W2W'ing
You should start W2W'ing
Especially after ARR
Rather than wall to wall, when I was learning, I'd pull G2G - gap to gap. There's usually a few packs together and then a break - I'd usually grab those packs and stop.
I think wall to wall is 1000% the norm in msq roulette though. Kills me inside when people pull small in one. But wall to wall in dungeons is usually agreed upon first but defiantly dont pull small packs lol
for company-issue survival manuals- does the bonus xp get capped at 1m or does the entire gain from the buff get capped at 1m
This, 100%.
I believe the bonus
It disappears after the cap hits
ooooh no way?!
I could be wrong, so don't take my word for it.
I would say just ask your party is wall to wall is okay and go from there especially a sprout
indeed
1 pack at a time is how you get roasted and told you're a shit tank.
1 pack at a time is incredibly slow and a DPS/Healer will never be in the wrong if they pull more if you pull like that.
Even if you're starting, 2-3 packs is the minimum.
Healers have more than enough tools to keep you alive.
And a tank has more than enough tools to mitigate incoming damage.
I'm not asking you to go w2w right off the bat
I'm asking you to get used to pulling big.
Every job has tools. Make use of them.
I agree with that 100%
If someone's still learning, you'd think throwing them into what they consider the deep end of the pool before they learn to swim would be bad
Does anyone have a Hunt LS or discord server for Chaos?
Everyone's gonna learn at their own pace, don't push them to learn faster because "it's too slow"
lmao, 10 minutes extra into a dungeon & people start having conniptions
I think shit talking anyone for any type of pull is wrong but giving people encouragement or asking them to pull more is fine
If they are obviously new and struggling dont ask
How do I get the collectible versions of ores? I'm at a node with the ore I need, but I can't use my collectible abilities, and the ore itself isn't listed as rarified or anything :/
But new players tend to take it slow when they need to learn to pull more
Rarefied ores are from timed nodes
Im not saying shove them into hard situations but give encouragement atleast
What lol
do you need to run through every dungeon on a job to unlock explorer mode for it?
I know a few people who play with the chat off >.>
I know, I'm sitting at one right now, but it only lists the regular (in this case) limonite
Because it's 10 minutes extra that can be incredibly easily saved by just pulling more.
99% of the time it won't kill you to pull 2-3 packs.
And in later dungeons you can w2w easily
I understand that im just saying if you have a new player pulling one pack at a time just say “hey are you comfortable pulling more/letting me pull more”
Not all timed nodes have rarefied mats
Not encouraging people toxic or anything
Just want to help them learn at their own pace for future stuff :(
Should've pulled more earlier so you know how to use your kit properly
it's because they're probably tank alt and don't have the entire story of experience with the role
cause at 1 pack pulls, you can do a dungeon without clicking a mitigation at all
Well that's frustrating, and doing collectibles is still the best way to level DoL/DoH after 50?
Firmament, tbh
And levequests
Custom deliveries
That too
No, it's only for lv70 dungeons and shadowbringers dungeons
GC turn in is good also
ooooh
A Final Fantasy XIV Gathering Clock for tracking available node locations.
Timer for Heavensward nodes
It's Eorzea time, as an fyi
Isn't there usually like.. one or two that's available at all times, but worth significantly less scrip and xp
Ye
So, that site lists everything I need as N/A, does that just mean it's nowhere soon?
why would they choose to display timers in eorzea time, makes no sense
Because... the nodes appear during specific eorzea hours?

do you live your life by eorzea hours

you don't?!
https://garlandtools.org/bell/ shows time in actual human hours
When my life is Nodes, yeah
hmph! how very glib.. and do you believe in eorzean time?
it would be much more confusing across timezones if they tracked via real world time.
pouts heavily
ET is also better seeing how the days are faster
how is "it will be available in 36 minutes" even related to timezones?
So people can actually get everything
time is a social construct
same outcome
Yes, but Caspian has a point, it's easier for someone to see "this node pops in 36 minutes realtime" than "this node pops in x hours ET" and then have to figure out how long that is from now in ET
I agree, this is getting quite ranty
this is not the place to complain or argue about game design as none of us here can change it. it is how it is
Which gear do I get as a start for Machinist?
that's not about game design
Aiming/ Dex gear
Hey, I wasn't arguing haha, just stating their point makes sense <3
it's about the website, garland bell is much more handier to use
Yeah, that's kinda obvious XD, but should I buy gear to get started at first?
Nah just run around naked obviously
You get given a basic bitch chest, legs and weapon
Any lv30 gear with dex on it works
Sorry i have question
Is summoner good at level 50 and 60 content?
Dang. Diagnosed my fps stutter. I added an auxiliary gpu to be able to have 4 monitors + Index. The extra GPU is causing a very slight, occasional stutter in only ffxiv. 
every job is fine at any level content.
I was pushing my luck mixing Maxwell and Turing architectures. It was so close to being perfect.
Ah alright thanks
did anyone do fashion report this week
fashion report isn't available yet
it doesnt start in tuesday?
Wait did I forget something? I ran a 50/60/70 dungeon roulette (got the Level 50 one) and popped food. I only got like this much EXP. I remember leveling different (got other 80 characters).
I feel like there are very diminishing returns in doing duty roulettes after level 70, is that a wrong feeling?
yes
I did 3 roulettes and it didn't even give me a third of my level
judging doesn't start till friday so the solution isn't posted until then.
which roulettes?
After doing the daily, I just queue for the 3 highest-level dungeons I can.
trial and 50/60 give shit exp
...not leveling roulette?
Those are nothing
I did levelling for my rogue
well there you go
the others used to give a ton of boosts in the past
Castrum is good exp, but only ~40% of what Prae gives 
How important are the clusters from the roulettes?
I mean, I got a mere 1/4 of my level at 60 on my first 50/60/70 dungeon roulette. How the fuck.....
I know, I didn'Ät
Cause it's the second worst roulette for xp
Trade clusters for VIII materia
Lvl cap dungeons still give shit exp
Goddamnit... Ok I will do more tomorrow morning I guess. Still learning the job anyway.
The roulette doesn’t change that
Wish they made a separate inventory for bait
it gives exp at the same rate, just less cause it's shorter
You and me both friend. I just power leveled my fisher and threw al lbaits at my retainer. It's a travesty.
Or saddlebag
Kinda forgot about that mechanic
Prae gives slightly better exp/min
why is buying the game so complicated
when does fashion resets?
does it matter what store i buy the game from aside from steam
No
i see NA and EU s enix store
So use people like GMG or newegg or amazon
it doenst matter what i choose right
It does
Codes are region locked
Is SE store still having a sale? I'd buy through them if you can.
?
Your server doesn't pick what account region is
What region is your account
Abit below that
I guess other regions is referring to the misc ones
Like Norway
Where I live
I agree that this buying thing is complicated business
i dont think i have to read a 33 pages guide on how to buy a game ever
except this game i guess
how do i see fashion status and when does it reset?
It resets Tuesday with judging starting Friday
Wait until Friday
ah okay
so i buy the game on the store and fill out the code and thats it right?
Yes
okay thanks
thank you
i want to do hard dungeon for first expansion gun breaker but my lvl gear is below 230, how do i get better gear with gun breaker
Buy shire
Is there any way to make target markers less opaque? (these)
No
ah, shame
They’re markers
makes flood ray in cloud deck extreme quite hard to see
(when someone puts a marker on you)

You want to see them
okay where do i buy shire from
Idyllshire
Idyllshire
okay thank you
Idyllshire or ishgard sundry splendor if you finished heavensward
asked this in the beginner lounge, but i was curious as to how to understand this hunt tracker, does this mean that behemoth could spawn within the next hour?
and you buy them with Allagan Tomestone of Poetics?
Yes
disciple of war/magic
yeah so need to go for 2 then
yes
okay thanks
how do you setup a macro that would use the keyboard?
trying to make a housing macro to avoid clicking
you can’t set up macros that will trigger specific keypresses
oh
only actions
whats a decently cost and time efficient way to do the crystal sand anima step?
depending on the economy of your server and the rest of your datacenter, the primal turn-ins can be fairly cheap
Whyyyyyyy
the one that involves the ifrit horn, etc
I still dont fully get how people who relocate get the house instead of people buying one for the first time
what is different between the two
I tried to get a house for like 6 hours and didnt manage to get it so I just bought a apartment
so any open plot someone can take instantly?
if it’s a plot move yeah
hmm
when brand new wards get added, there wont be timers on the plots
some will have a lottery drawing for the plot ownership
so I could just go buy a shite plot in uldah then move to limsa or something
some will be a first come first serve
I was told that the lottery system will not be applied to old plots
ye it seems that it’s gonna be for Ishgard
thats annoying
no beach front view :(
honestly with how awful designing a house is maybe i dont want one lol
they likely wont allow relocation for lottery, to prevent people skipping the entire process
if I had to guess
why dont more people just relocate then?
also to prevent bidding on multiple plots, if you win and dont claim the plot, you lose that gil
im assuming its a gil issue but at the point of buying a house
^
that implies someone will have a plot to begin with
honestly imo ishgard will look ugly from what the firmament looks like
unless you get a house right on the edge
kinda eh
indeed but still
so uh retainers... do I get charged at point of buying and then it adds to my sub.. or is it just an addition to my sub price
im just assuming it will be mostly stone/snow
the whole point of firmament is to entirely rebuild it
D:
I dont think it will be the exact same but It will stick to the ishgard theme
indeed
Goblet is so trash
I'm praying Shiro opens up more when ishgard comes out
also that retainer thing kinda sucks but eh ;-; w/ lack of inventory space it must be done
Dumb question but on patch days are all the timers on houses like open or something?
they maintain the timer theyre set on
Then isnt it still just a clicking fest and praying besides for people relocating?
for example, a house wasnt open prepatch, post patch it was sold as I logged in
waste of our time
they just want a time sync imo
but its also like??? The current system is just asking for people to bot
ye
I saw an fc of lalas all in boosted gear at the same plot ;p I already knew what was going on and just left
The hidden timer is to prevent people from selling their houses for absolutely outrageous prices
like 30mil for a small, etc
people jsut do that in PF now
That's only for people relocating
its a lot harder to sell a plot to someone
since you either have to relocate
or you have to sell an fc house
either way tho
ishgard housing is coming with a change to the system
If I had the gil and wasnt invested w/ my current FC I would just buy an FC from someone lol
and this isnt really the place to vent about it
damn thinking about snowy areas with a fire inside a house is making me feel cozy. Actually starting to warm up to ishgard house
well when a mommy chocobo and a daddy chocobo love eachother very much
but how do i get a mmory chocobo
you either need to buy a permit from the npc near the counter, or use another retired chocobo if you have one and talk to the chocobo breeder in central shroud
So I did Wanderes Palace 24 times now trying to get Pinprick Pebble but each time I open the treasure coffer it goes to someone else. Is this just random or am I doing something wrong?
which counter
the racing counter
Does Road To 70 buff effect XP from deep dungeons?
its the tack and feed trainer
The exp you get inside no, but the exp you gain when you complete a set of 10 floors, yes
Hmm what about Armory bonus?
Nothing affects the XP inside
Im pretty sure if its just an item you roll on its % to get it... if youre having issues if you can do it unsynced
And Armoury is only combat xp
loot like that is randomly handed out to party members so if you're trying to get a specific item like that then run it unsync
So it wouldn't affect quest or duty completions
The obvious solution to this is solo Unsync
Ok so it must be random. Unfortunately I cant create parties in Free trial like that.
Thx
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.
so covering permission G1 right cuz mine retired one is G1 too
can do g9 if you want, as long as the other covering is same grade or higher, your bird will always raise up a grade
im 30% left to lvl 80, only roulettes i have are 50/60/70 dungeon and normal raid. Whats faster, those roulettes, or mt gulg?
lol have to wait 30min for breeding done xD
mt gulg
Why can't I make my retainer a gatherer class?
did you unlock them
lvl 80 Botanist
is your retainer already a class?
Hi, i want to craft this wepon: Dead Hive Katana
how do I unlock it, which master recipe?
master blacksmith iv
Yeah, do I have to release them and make them again? I tried changing but only battle classes appear
It says something like "it has gained enough experience to get a better job" or the like
I press yes to reset but it doesn't do much
Got it, I just had to say no there
Thanks!
how do i get General-purpose Pure White Dye?
how do i dye something that i've glamoured? it says cant be applied to projected item
You dye the item you want to use as the glamour.
quick ventures, restoration fete presents, silver-trimmed sacks, gold-trimmed sacks, southern/zadnor lockboxes have a chance of giving them
aw it cant be dyed just realised thanks tho
does anyone remember what the monk changes were in ew? are fists or riddles getting removes, or do I just remember wrong
we don't know exactly what's changing with monk
wasnt there a slideshow
It covered a brief overview of some changes
not all
noted changes for mnk were greased lightning stacks being removed, positionals for true strike and twin snakes being removed, and should tackle being removed for a new dash ability
oh so I just imagined fists getting removed
from the showcase, looks like fists aren't on yoshi-p's hotbar
but riddles are still there
oh thats not good
hey guys a buddy of mine is playing through the game on pc but doesnt have any voice audio on the voice acted cutscenes, does anyone know a fix for this?
did they turn down the voice slider in the audio settings
no they r at 100%, that was the first thing we checked. his drivers are also up to date as well
Are you sure the cutscene is voiced? 😛
At risk of going off topic, let’s be honest that we weren’t using anything other than fists of fire anyway so it could be a positive factor
what we know:
- Blitz system
- Positionals on second step (True Strike and Twin Snakes) removed
- Perfect Balance reworked to being a charged action that allows up to 3 uses of not-needing-forms for attacks, and will tie into getting specific symbols for the Blitz system
- new dash that doesn't do damage
- new AoE GCD that upgrades Arm of the Destroyer at 82, and crits when in pop-opo form
- new skill Riddle of Wind that reduces autoattack CD by 50% for 15 seconds
- Riddle of Fire and Broterhood to 60s and 120s respectively
- Elixir Field removed as oGCD, turned into Blitz
we don't know anything about fists but they've been doing QoL changes so i imagine fists will be removed at some point
yea, he just finished the main story and never heard a voice while i was
would suggest looking at their computer's audio settings and making sure they are configured properly
i know i messed with those settings one time, changing it from like stereo to a different setting and it made the audio ingame either not register or sound very very far away to the point it was basically silent
honestly I hope they dont remove fists but I can only hope
So I just finished the main SB story and starting post SB. Do I unlock the level 70 gear for tomes later in the post SB story or can I get em now?
Yes
can buy tomestone gear nnow, yes
@ vee
You can get it now
in either kugane or rhaglr's
Ohh okay thanks!
for some job items like the orison set for whm, if I throw it away can I get them back for gil?
tried looking through recompense and wasn't there
All of them except the lvl 60 ones can be gotten back with gil
the lvl 60 ones have to be bought back with centurio seals
Losing your patience is not against tos.
Lashing out at them is
hmm, don't actually know what centurio seals are lmao
haven't looked into hunt stuff
Hw and sb hunt currency
aight thx, I'll see what I can do lol
yes thats fine @tulip zinc
I don't see that as being reportable
And if they report you, well they're being petty dicks tbh
I'm trying to find my chocobo's racing stats, and am I just blind? I'm not seeing anything for Gold Saucer in my character menu
The red menu button
Not the character profile
The character MENU button at the bottom right
yeah, clicking character from there brings that up
can also just type /goldsaucer
oh
Character > gold saucer
Hey guys question, menphina’s earring is usable only until Endwalker releases correct? Or can you keep it forever
Is there a guide somewhere on what quests to do after SB? Like to get the rest of the raids etc
!faq contentunlock
Thank you!
FIRST COME FIRST SERVE
I have and extra shadow bringer's dlc (not collector's edition) (you need the base game and to be subscribed to the game for it to work) Here is the key RG4A RV8G 8D8G GZT9 2222 Have Fun!
Really? Woah!
That sounds like a scam
if it doesn't work you lose nothing
Did SE gift similar items in previous expansions?
yes
Sorry if its not.
Im so used to an obslaught of steam scam keys in another server
!item Aetheryte Earring
Increases EXP earned by 30% when level 70 and below. Attributes and item level vary according to class/job and current level when equipped.
95
104
※ Required Level: 1
※ Repaired By: Goldsmith
※ Repair Material: Grade 1 Dark Matter
※ Dyable: No
※ Desynthesis: Yes
yeah
they don't give people exp boosts up to the max level for the expansion
they intend for it to be naturally slower for people to spend more time actually levelling
Yeah well its only 10 lvls
That would make sense tho

Not for me lol
I need like 100+ msq quests to lvl up
Think im on post dragonsong ya
Patch quests are wack for lvl cause they don't want you overleveled
ah
So stormblood lot more exp?
way more
ah i see
Level cap content is crap for xp
duh
so many seems upset about this but bruh, level cap content ain't for xp
it's for the story and best emotes
How to turn off mount music

Do anybody know the best fix for error code 90006?
what would an ideal ilvl be for a static starting e9s?
the higher the ilvl the easier savage will be to prog, and nowadays 520 is practically free so go for that
is il520 gear with a crit stat better than il530 gear without a crit stat
do you get the same loot regardless of what job you do a dungeon with? unsynced
99% of the time no
Main stats > substats
oh, really?
Ahhh shit i'm looking at the balance and they favor il530 gear with the crit stats but that's because there's two sets of 530 gear for optimization among that item level
Main stat is always superior
alright
For every Lux weapon, am I going to have to go through 'Toughening Up'? Or do I just have to do it for one weapon?
yes have to do that step for every weapon
No steps of the anima weapon are skippable
or can I not get a gnb weapon while doing a dungeon monk?
you can
Jobs don't change the loot
chests are rng
but if you're doing a leveling dungeon for specific loot, then its ideal to do it as the job you want the loot for
can't solo the dungeon on that job
since leveling dungeons give you a piece of loot at the end for that job, so it'd make things to quicker
it would take so long to clear it once on gnb since it's not even level 80
can I repeat the dungeon any amount of times in a day for loot?
yes
But he can spam it
So, just repeat said dungeon?
To get all the gear for that job
I need a gnb weapon but can't do the dungeon on gnb
well
the dungeon loot yes
the loot from specifically for completing leveling roulette is once per job

right but I'm not doing leveling roulette
not sure what you mean by loot?
if you're talking about the bonus from the roulette that is not is what is being discussed
oh okay
you can take your higher level job in there and farm that dungeon to death, eventually you'll get the doodad you're looking for.
yeah I guess spamming the dungeon is aight
oh wait, I don't even need to do this, deepgold looks basically identical to that weapon
Is black mage a "fast caster"? Cause i see it has skills with 3.5 sec cast times and I doubt you have to cast them, does it have insta casts?
it can be
It does have a good handful yes
I like the red mage reset thing, but black mage appeals more to me cause of the big chunks of damage and focusing around fire and ice
2 xenoglosses and thunder/fire procs... And Fire/Blizzard 3 being fast casts when swapping
