That does not include Red Mage right? Sigh
no, as red mage is from stormblood
Do we have a list of things you get from the base game compared to the free trial? PVP is one thing I guess
pvp and all the social features
!faq freetrial
Is BLM bad at 4 man dungeons or low level 4 man dungeons?
gil, social, pvp restriction yeah
!faq blmleveling
I always feel like I do bad with BLM in 4 man dungeon... is it just because I'm bad?
leveling rotations are wonky tho
follow ^ or check out weskalber guide
it doesn't feel great while levelling but it gets the job done
but yeah it doesn't matter that much, it's leveling stuff
BLM is slow so it might just not get spells out in time, in addition to tab-targetting between adds for casts are annoying
it just feels bad even if it's fine in lower level stuff
it feels much better past 50
no reason to when you could do more damage doing an aoe spell
off cooldown
use it off cooldown, it will catch either the next thunder or fire in single target
any1 know whats the stone whisperer 5 proc chance ?
Oh wait cool
for aoe it will only apply to thunder yeah
Never knew that nice
yeah sharpcast doesn't need to be consumed immediately
use it off cd and if you're hitting buttons your rotation will have you use it one way or another
Okay so... how am I supposed to do spear fishing?
I see
Don't have a clue if this is where to ask about relics, but trying to figure out how to allocate the DRG shb relic
we don't have documentation on it
crit > dh > det is the stat priority
ignore skill speed ,drg hates it
How does the 72+ AOE rotation work?
So 510 in both crit and dh for now?
How does BLM do multiple flare?
you should really wath the weskalber video
Yeah I should
something like this I guess?
he explains things in great detail
freeze gives you one umbral heart so you can get a flare off that leaves enough mana for a second flare
but yeah watch the weskalber vid
am i missing something here im trying to do
and im at the area but theres nothing there
is it bugged?
approach the debris
ok sweet thanks

so after i buy complete edition i get 30 day free, after that where do i buy the sub?
uhhhh
Uhm could I join a "clan" even though I have the trial?
mogstation?? time card??
Ok just curious
Yeah it's sad
!faq mogstation
mogstation is where you manage your account information, basically
I'm going into The tam Tara deepcroft for the first time is it hard?
nah
After I use Fantasia and finish changing my character, do I save over the current slot number or does it matter?
appearance saves are just to bring the appearance back up quickly in case you want to use it later
so if you want to keep your old character look for later you should save the new appearance in a different slot
Anyone know where i can find ||The emerald weapon theme on spotify or does it even exist there ? ||
not yet
Know when ?
i dont think we know yet
took ages for the death unto dawn soundtrack to come to streaming services
they uploaded those themselves
Where did they got it from then ?
i assume from online
best way to lvl from 50 to 60 with a dps alt?
probably not before endwalker since its only out on a ost since the 15th september
potd, highest dungeon, roulette, squadron
!faq altlvlguide
I see
just wait for lodestone announcements
just make sure you unlock all optional leveling dungeon
Is the summoner called conjurer?
Hey guys trying to min max My squadron there 50 and I'm trying clear dungeons fast
ok just trying to find the summoner quest just did slyph management
its in limsa lominsa
Tank: either, though I like gladiator more
DPS: archer and arcanist
@obsidian patio I also have there dps trait on clearing at 16 mins. Was wondering if there some tips to make it 10mins
Give everyone the tactic that purely buffs damage
I did

Keep running dungeons until it’s the max rank for all of them, which makes it like +60% extra damage
I also found most of my fast runs come from me being the tank and the conjurer NOT being on the pure damage tactic
I used the one that buffed HP and attack
Since the tactic the healer has changes how they heal a bit
How do I know if an achievement gives certificates or not?
When you moved from arr to heavensward, how did y'all adjust to the new voice actors in game ?
happily
didnt care …
No I mean was it awkward that you spent months listening to the old voices only to find out they have suddenly changed
how long did it take to get used to ?
it doesn't change instantly. there's a lot of time before you bump into some of them
should i get into healing
yes
why so ?
they're better
with the exception of Raubahn, every voiced scene in ARR was difficult to endure because it felt like the actors were phoning in their lines
^
and they had some big names in the original cast
I love sam riegel as much as the next guy, but he wasn't great in this
all of the scions are much improved going forward
Think I used japanese voices so didn't notice xD
I assume the apparent lack of effort was due to the massive dumpster fire that was 1.0 and the incredibly short turnaround time on 2.0 gave the people chosen for the cast the impression that the game wasn't going to matter in the long run.
The bad translation made me switch to english though
@prisma hill is there a way to replay the voiced cutscenes ?
That and there was a financial reason for the studio change as well, iirc
diary in the inn
yeah go to the inn
so it will be easy to get used to the new voice actors then ?
there is a book there
but I forget what that reason was exactly.
you can play cutscenes there
ok thanks a lot
I think the voice actors were fine later, shadowbringers was golden
Was funny to listen to alisaie japanese voice, as they gave her your typical high pitched loli voice lol
I still am far away from completion, hope this journey fares well to me
this sentence caused me pain
172ish for male, 162ish for female
Big enough to be choked out by Roe girls.
No idea, but you can get master recepies with yellow scripts.
easiest way to get scripts is collectibles or deliveries
damn...
girl is 8 cm too short
for my character T_T
Go with Thighlander.
Middie might be better then
middie will be closer to average height yeah
are there relic weapons that require running lvl 60,70,80 dungeons?
yes
What do I do with low level materia?
shadowbringers relic needs level 60
oh neat
think eve the heavensward one recquires the 60 dungeons
usually nothing and you're better off trying to convert them into crafter/gatherer materia at mutamix
also 50
yeah there are some 50/60 dungeons in HW one
eureka is entirely in eureka
i forget about the ARR ones but i'm sure there's a few level 50 ones in there
Arr wants some spezific dungeons
but ty i want too farmt eh tripple triad cards that drop in these dungeons and do 2 thigns at the same time

so when am buy the complete edition, what do i do next?
play
just finished installing the game. have no idea what data center or server to join. how did you guys make that decision?
i'm east coast if that matters
Currently you only have two datacenters to choose from; Aether as a whole is Congested, and new characters cannot be created on any of the servers in it.
oh wow, so Primal it is since ppl say Crystal is mainly for RP, right?
Other than that, all the datacenters are in the same physical location, so you'll get the same ping regardless which one you pick. If you have any friends playing the game already, I'd try to get on one of their servers. Otherwise, there's really no major differences, aside from meme impressions.
isnt Aether out of babyjail
It is
the stereotype is crystal is for erp containment but it's kinda a wash given the location of NA servers
Crystal DC is currently Preferred, which means you'll get a major boost to combat-based experience gain, and leveling your main class as well as any alts will be much faster.
i'm also worried about long queue times on big servers during patches and expansions. how would i know player size of a server?
I was unaware of this, lol, must have missed a news item somewhere.
you'll get Qs everywhere
all the servers have a queue at this point.
oh
and for endwalker, the queues will be even longer
but, eventually you'll have datacenter travel so it really doesn't matter where you set up your primary server
hmm im trying to find the one with the lowest queue to make my character in
6.0 is also bringing major planned hardware updates to the servers, so I don't think queue times can be really nailed down just yet.
if you have friends on a particular server or an FC you want to join, go there, otherwise, doesn't really matter.
can i make a character before selecting a server?
yes.
like, the character creator, you do that before you pick the server and it confirms before you start
i need to report someone bcause they didnt do shit in MSQ, how to do that?
they even tried to call me back
ok sweet so i can make one and join diff servers to see which one currently has lowest q
yeah, bet a lot of people are waiting for endwalker to hit before they resub
plus that rush at the beginning to run the MSQ before its spoiled or get in to a duty and run it totally blind
I preordered so gonna do that x3
plus, certain cities will be easier to get in to than others because the new jobs that people will rush at.
get through the login queue only to have a queue to enter the city
and then there's the queue to enter the dungeon cause there's nothing but sages and reapers
it's queues all the way down
First time for me to be there when a new expansion hits
Probably going to be rough first days
Or a queue to enter instanced rooms
but dungeon ques should be fast x3
won't be fast if you're a dps or healer
if its not prefer then it'll be slower?
for tanks they'll be lighting quick
but healers have the lowest que times
not if there's hundreds of people leveling sage
They won't
sage starts at 70
So how did tanking and Aggro worked before shadowbringers and Tank stances?
if you think people won't power level sage to 90 inside of 2 days you're nuts
If it's not a Preferred world then it'll be normal. Creating a character on a Preferred server gives you a buff called Road To 70, which dramatically increases your combat experience gain as long as you're on a class that isn't yet level 70.
Don't think most people can no life games like that xD
@spring lintel tank stance is something you can activate and it will make all your moves gain more aggro
Even more so if you uses aggro weaponskill
I’m aware, I’m asking how did it work before shadowbringers
Also I'm a main tank, so I'll be good xD
Because tanks didn’t use to have tank stances no?
That's what I said
Old tank stance is, gain more enmity and reduced damage dealt (maybe reduced damage taken too?)
So if you have your tank stances on (in Stormblood and earlier), you will do less damage. And some moves are specific to certain stance
sage is Limsa Lominsa and Reaper is Ul'dah
so feel free to log out in Gridania
So your tank stance in Shadowbringers just make you generate more aggro
hi, where can i find my code? my free trial friend is about to use buy the game
And no more damage penalty on you
What is the earliest Beast tribe quest i can unlock in ShB? And what lvl MSQ does it unlock at?
2 factor authentication
usually it's an additional safeguard in addition to your password
Pixies, level 73, the starting quest is in the Crystarium
And reused passwords are ez to be hacked
so it useless
2fa is the opposite of useless really
Sure, if u don't mind your account having the risk of getting hacked
absolutely not useless
Thanks
what is the mount that looks like a jet fighter, it's not the air force mount
cruise chaser maybe?
is there a command to toggle on and off your parameter bar display?
you can press scroll lock to turn on your whole UI, but not your health and mp specifically I don't think
you can check in the HUD layout to see if you can disable it
oh it comes from southern front lockbox
If you mean HP/MP you can prob do it with a macro which can hide/show certain parts of the HUD. Then you keybind the macro
thank you!
I have a macro set that hides most of the ui
can i make the mini map rotate?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2M7-1-EzWI&t=21s
I got the idea from this video, shows some commands for macros and how they interact with the HUD.
After revisiting and reworking my whole UI/Interface setup last week, I thought it is time to share with you, the changes and ideas, that lead to this final version, where only your ideas are able to help me improving it.
Therefore, I would love to see your setups and ideas for the cleanest UI in Eorzea, so share your impressions in our Discord...
Gabriel α (glowing. DR last boss low drop chance) and Gabriel Mark III (BSF lockboxes)
you're a hero. thank you so much

anyone know how to fix this?
There should be a lock icon on it
thank you
have u tried uninstalling and reinstalling?
yes i did reinstall, there was like 2 files delete while installing though
gpu drivers fully updated?
maybe anti virus interfering?
don't you get exp when you get mettle too? cuz I turned them in at the guy and got no exp
hm lemme check update rq
Does anyone do the Foxy Lady fate chain anymore? Ive been trying to get outfoxed to spawn solo for what feels like eternity
Where does one learn the recipies to craft replica sky pirate gear?
Also, why is this such an awkward question to find the answer to?
can you make this element not clickable? I moved it to the middle of my screen from the top but I keep clicking on it
@atomic gulch fixed after update, ty
should be anything special about replica recipies unless it's locked by something silly like firmament being available
(level 61)
you mean enemy names? but you;re just targetting an enemy 
you cant disable it
if i switch Grand Company,do i lose progress on the current one?
either make it smaller or move it to somewhere you wont right click
I just found out the problem I was having. Searing "replica" for some reason did not show the results for sky pirates, just other replica gear, searching "Sky Pirate's" did
you keep your old rank when you switch back if thats what you mean
The UI only shows 50 out of 70 results and wont let you navigate more
how do you unlock bozja lockboxes, gamerescape says resistance historians but I can't do anything at them
Complete the first quest or two inside of bozja
They’re the tutorial quests for the place
I did a bunch of quests now
I guess I need to do more quests then
GM. Is there a list of stuff to go back and do in sequential order of expansion after finishing MSQ? i know i missed a ton of stuff.
Hi, my controller suddenly no longer work specifically with FFXIV today and I'm running out of things to try. Does anyone happen to experience the same issue before?
It's an XB1 controller. I tried both wireless and wired modes but the game shows no sign of input
!faq contentunlock
are there purple weapons that are not relics?
relic implies purple
anyone got experience with linkshells being useful to clear end game content? Or do they miss the mark?
Whats the most beginner friendly melee dps if i want to start levelling up one?
SAM or DRG is probably the simplest, but they're all pretty approachable. I would say NIN is the most complex, and MNK is about middle-of-the-road
I went from the braindead rotation of pld to nin. It’s a fun challenge lol
The bunny rabbit is my friend
Yeah, I really enjoy NIN if you're up for it. It's my favorite melee job because it's very cool and versatile
is there any reason to hold onto free gold saucer minigame tickets?
And you naruto run when you have your weapons out
Nin is my favorite melee because it has the least emphasis on positionals.
Not if you don't wanna play minigames for free
Free Chuck E. Cheese tokens
But I agree with nin being more complex in the sense that you have to memorize your mudra combinations.
It’s a learning curve but once you get the hang of it it’s really fun
It’s fine once you have the muscle memory though.
what i mean is, are there any minigames I should be using them for specifically ?
they seem kinda useless since everything costs 1-10mgp to play
when do i summon seraph?
Dragoon is probably one of the easiest jobs to pick up. Where you don't feel like you really must read a guide to squeeze the most out of it. Just read your tooltips and you're fine. Some jobs feel much more like an exam before you figure them out. Dragoon is more "poke with stick, ok?"
either when the need for aoe healing is high or when your next heal would have to be succor and not a ogcd heal
ya drg is fun
how far do you have to progress before you can unlock lockboxes
You get them from Skirmishes
I have lockboxes
You can also trade in notes you already unlocked
dont think i have ever cast succor while seraph is up so good question actually
but I can't open the lockboxes
just talk to the locksmith
gamerescape says this guy opens the lockboxes
That's the historian.
yes
hmm
so you only use seraph';s shield?
ye when seraph is up, consolation x2 first then ogcd stuff like soil, indom, whispering dawn if needed
pain, thought bozja would be better than eureka but seems to be the opposite
feels better to me.
though out of very specific fights, consolation x2 are already overkill …
it's even more archaic than eureka
ok
you do skirmish, you get loot, you bring loot to guy, guy gives you stuff. not hard.
You don't lose the buffs when you die, leveling the rank isn't painful without challenge log
it the same system as eureka though?
like you talk to the locksmith in both eureka and bozja to open the lockboxes
what does he say
what's the line? "I can't open your lockbox?"
just small talk
Talk to the guy inside Bozja
I made an alt character (Don't ask me why) and i'm trying to speedrun through the game but the default hud bothers me. I see a reddit post from 3 years ago suggesting you move character data files from your main to your alt, is there a better method? Post says it can get messy and I don't want to mess my main up
there's nothing really messy about it
just copy and paste the files from one character to the other
so it'll import all my keybinds and settings right?
(i didn't know how much default targetting sucks.)
whenever i copy my hud from one to another, just copy addon/gearset/hotbar/keybind/macro/uisave over. can skip gearset/macro
i heard the game is cheaper rn? until when
what channel do i give a dollar to become a kupo bot supporter

6th October(+- a few hours because of timezones) so only a few days left
how do i get 46k gold saucer points fast?
oh good to know, i started this game a couple days ago but i alrdy know ill stick to it
time to buy the whole thing
are there any Youtubers with consistently good guides for FF14? Or someone with particularly good guides to Palace of the Dead?
hey!
do retainers bring back better stuff when they have better gear equipped or is that only to unlock higher lvl ventures? does it matter to quick explorations?
You can click on or to swap between them or go into settings (can't remember where) and add several of them
Don't know if he has any on PotD but WeskAlber has good guides overall
!faq retainerbp
More of those = "better" stuff
what's the easiest way to get Jet Black Dye?
!fr
better item level = higher chances of better stuff?! got it, thx
Do the easy 80
so basically i have to buy the complete edition and then the pre order endwalker right?
Yup! Any stats/substats don't matter apart from ilvl so feel free tl throw shitty gear on it 
!faq buy
right now complete edition is on sale 24 dollars
Can buy starter + endwalker now and get the expansions at launch
Yea, up to you. If you want to start playing stormblood and up now then go for it
Is it that little? 🤔
on sale, yes
O wow
It’s well worth to get the complete edition
Might as well then tbh
ok so ill keep testing the game a little more and then get complete edition if i still like it
im only lvl40 rn
MSQ 23

btw can i just ignore fishing and mining and all that stuff?
Sounds like a plan 😂 Should get to 50 at least to experience less-slow classes
yea
Yes
Yea it's optional
ok good
I bought the game when I reached 50+ on my main
but then Gil doesnt mean anything for gearing?
this may be an endgame question srry
but since im gonna be playing only 1 job
At some point the good gear needs different currency to purchase
you should get good enough gear from ur main and job quests anyway
i see
and the gear that will start carry you thru expansions is bought by "tomestones"
you'll start to get them around the end of ARR
so kinda similar to wow gearing system
well, in wow you still need money for min max but yeh
srry for the comparison but is the only other game like this i have played
idk i never played wow
is there a max level when ur playing with ur friends that u still get exp?
so if i understand correctly i just have to wear a coeurl mask and a leg piece with the color soot black to get 60k plus?
Is there any easy way to level up in Pagos? Or do i have to keep killing like i'm in a hardcore 2000 MMO?
I'm lv19 so i don't think i can spam nm
without probably getting killed on the way and in the nm
do challenge log to get a few more levels
i have done it all
then shout for lvling help party
you dont get anymore exp when you hit max level on a job
i did
guess nothing else other than killing
til 25 iirc
If I buy a job boost but only have the starter edition, does it just boost to lvl 60? Heavensward lvl cap is 60 right?
@tropic flame oh i mean like.. if im lv 50, and my friend is lv 10, is there a max level that we can still earn exp together?
Ahh okey
And you just run around with your friend, using that class
When it comes to doing dungeons with your friend
You can use either the low level class or your lvl 50 class
Up to you
Thanks
is this enough to win the 60k+ for fashion week? i dont know if i understood everything correctly
!fr
I...Don't think so?
yeah i saw that already but are the things im wearing correct? i dont understand the graph 100 %
Make hands colibri pink
Shirt any yellow
Mask yellow
That'll bump the value up
And cheap
Oh
Yeah if you just want 80 you're good
For some reason I had it in my head you wanted 100 @leaden ginkgo
ah nice i will just go in then
I wanna try Tank for the first time and I have gunbreaker unlocked, any hints on what to do without being overwhelmed that isn't "try a level 1 tank instead"?
Read all your skills
Maybe practice on some mobs
Otherwise can just try a low level dungeon first
I planned on a low level dungeon
hmm I can also try that thing whatchamacallit in the adventurer guild in uldah
that tutorial thing
Hall of the Novice
yeah, that one
Yeah all it will say is "point enemies away from party and use tank stance to keep aggro"
I know in general what a tank is supposed to do
It's mainly about what skills to use for what
Yeah Hall won't really tell you that since different jobs different skills
I mean, I already guided rookie tank through his first dungeon, I just have no idea about job skills 😄
Really just read the skills and practice on a dummy and you'll get it
most of gunbreaker abilities is just. Do combo, get cartridge, do big dmg combo repeat
Tanks aren't that complicated
yeah, I will
Hardest part of tanks is actually the act of tanking
just a bit daunting when I haven't played it from level 1
worked thanks :d
would probably have a similar problem if I got thrown into a level 60 healer or dps
first step is just reading everything and then starting to sort that hotbar
yeah, gotta sort by combos
There are also some YouTube videos that can help but by far the easiest way to start is to get in front of a training dummy, clear your hotbars entirely, and then add them from the start
o wesker prolly has a video
That way you get familiar with the effects and placements until you’re comfortable
my way is : "will i use this all the time? ok then you go to first slot" and then go from there

That’s kinda what I do with abilities on E and F
its messy and prolly incomprehensible for others but i make do
A and E generally reserved for hard hitting abilities or combo starts
Do you have to pick up bard if you're leveling archer?
I usually stack my combos vertically
yea
So for MCH Q is Drill and E is Air Burst
mine looks really like that
And E+F are my charged oGCDs
Yeah I use those keys plus ZXV, and Shift modifiers on each
i like my rdm one its simple and cleanse
Yeah you always have to upgrade to whatever job comes out of the class. You don't lose skills or anything but you just get more added on
QERTF ZXV, 12345, and shift mods
Just requires less stretching but it probably depends on your finger lengths and resting position
keen-brutal-solid
or, demon slice-slaughter
if Gnashing Fang is available, use it - then follow with Savage Claw and Wicked Talon (weave Continuation between these at level 70)
if Gnashing Fang is not available, press Burst Strike/Fated Circle
Danger/Blasting Zone has half the cooldown of No Mercy, meaning you get one use under no mercy, and another halfway through its cooldown
attempt to fit an entire gnashing fang combo, Sonic Break, Bow Shock, Danger/Blasting Zone and as many burst strikes as you can, into No Mercy
Does samurai get much harder with the skills he gets after lvl 50?
Not really?
What are positionals exacty? Is it the place youre standing or movement skills?
You gotta change your rotation a bit at endgame to line up tsubame a bit but generally your rotation barely changes and you just add some ogcd hits in
different outcomes depending if you are in front, back or flank of your opponent
Certain skills get bonuses depending where you hit the boss
Oh
!action kasha
Didnt know about that
the "true north" action allows you to ignore positional bonuses for a short time
It's a melee DPS only thing
Hmm i see ok
With Samurai, positionals are mostly about kenki gauge bonuses I think
if not even "exclusively"
Eh whatever
!faq directional
you misspelled positional...
and its !action
!action gekko
for skills
...
According to my skills those two are the only ones
Is leveling in Pagos the worst? Or should i expect the same in Pyros and Hydatos?
It's considered the worst
that's good and bad news for me
Rookie tank Gunbreaker question: when pulling through mob groups, does AOE generate more aggro than ranged attacks?
only attacks that have 'increased enmity' on them do extra enmity
the rest are regular x10 modifier
assuming you have tank stance on
Even if it does less aggro you still 100% want to do aoe
Since its GROUPS of enemies
ah ok, so of all level 60 skills for gunbreaker, the ranged one seems to be the only one with aggro bonus
You can't just spend 20 minutes ranged attacking everything
sure, I know, I'm just thinking about dragging a mob group
not about actually engaging them
Oh if you wanna just get them over to you you can ranged hit one sure
That or just run into them
u do the provoke one, run to them, aoe and then run
aoe is to secure aggro in case ur dps start damaging while u drag em away
if you're the only tank, you can use provoke as your 'off gcd' ranged pull ability
it's pretty useless when solo tanking otherwise
I should start locking my hotbar

if you can somehow convince 24 players to sign up to your party finder, you can do it manually
but 24man content is usually pretty easy
and doable with duty finder without much issue
i just need it to advance in the sotry, it does not let me continue it until i clear this crystal tower quests
do the duty finder
and so far "average wait time" its 30 minutes lol
switch to dps if you can
dps usually have the lowest queue for alliance raids
since you need so many of them
no idea how the "switch" works, but im already a dps
then you'll just have to wait
don't worry, crystal tower is very often ran
if you still have problems, try queueing soon after the daily roulette reset
what time is it in ur timezone£?
crystal tower is in the daily roulettes so even level capped players do it, so you'll get a party no problem
cus if i remember timzones correctly its like 8am in parts of america
is there a good way to target the same target of alliance target-caller in Frontline? I see the marked target but it is hard to click on them.
hi is this thing usefull ?
whats the big deal with timezones anyways? every time i log in i have like a 20-30 ppl queue, so for sure the server its full
very
all time
for what ?
it's for your best 50/60/70 gear and weapons
mostly waiting for servers to kick afkers for your slot
Its still saturday morning in most parts of America, not many ppl run content rn
Hey folks i need to choose a grand company, which one has the coolest gear for blm ?
none
Maealstorm is said to have coolest-looking gear I believe
pick ur favorite color
GC gear is kinda meh. you get to dress as an NPC
Uhh to be able to trade with gemstone trader in crystarium, I have to keep doing FATE until rank 3 on all Novrandt?
there is no difference right apart from the look of the gear
not really. There are glam that NPC doesn't use, I believe
is there any advantage they have over one another
limsa has the least convenient GC, but best access to market and bell
i'd say limsa/ul'dah have equal access to market/bell
armor glam-wise, Maelstorm goes with red and black, which are easy to fit other pieces
weapon glam-wise, if you don't mean the greenish color of the weapon, Adder is cool
go for Flame if you want to simp Namamo, though the GC does have any scene related to her XD

https://i.imgur.com/r9BShdK.jpg a sample for Adder's exclusive axe skin.
that's not an axe! also how is that lala furry
i'm saying that this is more of a child's polearm than an axe
isnt there also a tail thing u can get
Warg gear from the gland cosmos has tails for some sets
also, obviously, wolf set for halloween
agree to disagree
undyeable, though, keep that in mind
White is already the best anyways 
does it hides mi'qote tail?
iirc yeah
Yes it replaces the tails
so, even tail animation? :3
I don't think the tail animates that much
Given how the model is, it would look weird
is there some sort of a way to group foods among their purposes
i have like 2 inventory screens full of foods from MSQ and such and it's such a bother mouseovering all of them when i'm trying to search for one that would fit in a situation
when will the discounted collector edition be over
i just noticed theres a new game+ option under duty is that worth doing once unlocked or is it just to replay the story? or is it something else?
no reward for it
just to replay
ah okay i see but would it be worth it to level up another job or is running dungeons faster?
Im trying to do In for Garuda Awakening but Papalymo doesnt have it? ive done all the previous ones needed, and i havent completed this one, whats the problem?
it doesnt give any rewards, even exp
new game+ doesn't award xp
lmao good ridance then thanks people
hi im looking for help on potd floor 20. When i get hit by the boss. it takes like 3/4 of my health. but when people online does it. they are all gear up +99 +77 and they take it like 1/10 of their hp. What am i doing wrong? do i need to level up my gear in lower level or something
whats the level of your gear
+6 on each, i just statred potd
then thats the issue
you need to level it up more
silver chests can give you more gear lvl
just need to grind potd constantly
when you say +6 is it like... in other mmos where you enchant your gear and it can break? or is it something specific to potd?
in potd?
Specific to POTD/HOH
like.. ik that palace of the dead is something like torghast in wow no?
ah okay thanks
yes, broadly
just started shadowbringers after 300 hours of story and im slowly starting to research endgame things like.. "is there a way to upgrade gear bis gear" and so on so thats why im asking
okay was just curious cuz idk anything besides how to do msq about the game xD just saw that you can get a cool title in potd thats it (which ill never ger)
You get BiS partially from savage raids and partially from Revelation Tomestones
Which you can only do/get at 80
You buy a Cryptlurker piece, you do all 3 of the alliance raids for Shadowbringers, you get a coin from each
you upgrade it to Augmented
okay so pretty easy to understand progression cool nice
in a really short way of putting it - raid, or valor points
now youre talking my language
full raid gear or full valor gear will result in fucky substats
Granted, it really just depends on the sub-stats available on the gear
well no not quite
buy gear with tomestones/valor
upgrade with raid tokens to make max ilvl
raid for gear at max ilvl
with only like 3 raid peices
i mean you could just get augmented crypt and be done with it 
blm is fucky because you have to ask yourself whether you want to orient full spell speed build or crit
SPS build is more consistent
Crit can reach big numbers
yeah
It's not a big difference
and yeah this is easy and cheap albeit mindless, it won't be bis but it will be max ilvl
Until Crit has good rng
back in wow i was a frost mage even in the dark days of frost so ill stay crit i guess
imagine being an ice mage in ff 
blue?
ice is cool tho
Do not go "mmm, i only use ice cause ice mage"
the joke is black mages who don't use fire spells need to be taken out and shot
i use ice cuz lower casttimes 
wait there are blm's that dont use fire?
like.... spam B4?
tell that to the people who hardcast flamestrike
......
anyone know how to unlock the Navel?
it's part of the MSQ
do msq
and here i thought i was trolling damn anyhow thanks for the tips
People use Ice spells only on Ifrit cause they're scared that Fire will heal it or do no damage.
i was looking for the name of the mainquest and where

it's around lvl 35
thats both 5 head and -5 head
0head
i tried to learn blm by myself and see how i can do with no tutorials so essentially i ended up with something like deep breath B3>ENOCHIAN>B4>sharpcast>2xthundercloud>F3>leylines>F4 F4 F4 F>foul and you get the point
Almost
Kinda
f4 f4 f4 f1 f4 f4 f4
You don't immediately use Thundercloud
F1 refreshes fire phase
Cause then your first thunder cast is a wasted gcd
yeah when i said F i meant f1
basically use the most out of fire dont forget dots and use fould and when i get it xenoglosy
yeah that
filler can be B4, T3 or Xeno
You can also use T3 on either side of hte Fire 1 as you have space for 1 gcd
now to fix tunnel vision
But you only have mana to use 1 T3
whats t3 my brain farted
Thunder 3
Also, assuming your Spellspeed is high enough, you can skip blizzard
ehh i think it should be okayishhh since im just using the reccomended gear
havent tinkered with materia yet
how long should I be using flamethrower ?
As long as you want really
or can I just use it once and then dot
It deals damage every second
its a channel
until you need to use ember or switch pokemon (i had to)
yeah but like optimally
all 10s
oh okay so just blaze it
you can't move at all during it tho
Just drink during iy
yep thats what i do lol
and bio is the same?
just be thankful that flamethrower isn't used in single target anymore
what do you mean that sound awesome
oh I'm aware of the changes
With incredibly poor design
where you needed to save everything for your burst window and then clip a lot of stuff
Flamethrower was to force overheating for wildfire
Then you did jack shit damage for awhile
heard it was broken in heavensward coz you could do 40k damage in an era most classes did 8k
gunmage was wack thats for sure
yep
It's like having another piece of equipment
is there anyway to transfer my account from steam to its own client or would i have to start over completely?
!action superbolide
what's a use case for that ability?
to survive shit
it's got a really long cooldown, I don't want to pop it too early
8 seconds where u cant die
is there a way to create loadouts so i dont have to swap my classes gear everytime
It's your tank invuln
its a bit of a heart attack inducer for zoned out healers
!faq gearset
hmm no
does someone play with a controller and has found a way to make R2+L2 more... snappey? like i dont want to push the trigger all the way down i want it to act more like a normal button
strange that the spell description doesn't mention it and i'm 99% certain, but BLM Ley Lines only applies to the person who cast it, right?
yeah, had that case once, thought I was sleeping
i saw a youtube video where the guyclicked one button and it swapped all his gear with one click
Yes
Gear sets
Click the paper icon on your character profile
To open the gear set lidt
And make a new one
if you're playing on PC you can use any of the common gamepad remapping software to turn the triggers from analogue to binary
You can drag them to the hotbar
the third one
this still wont give me a click though :/ but ye that would already help
found it thanks
!leveling
For EXP, which ones are best of the daily ROulette? Is there like a list of "Do these for most EXP" in falling order? Don't have much time before reset, just wondering what I should prioritize
frontlines as in raids?
Pvp
sorry you mentioned alliances already, I see.
Never done PvP before so skipping that, but I'll do leveling. Are both good? Even the low one?
Trials and normal modes are decent ish cause they're generally quick
Levelling is always good
Good thanks!
How to reach the northern side of pagos as lv24?
frontline roulette is insane xp, and no one cares how you perform
they did
a free level below 50
Don't walk directly ontop of them
i didn't
Toggle walk, don't run

doing so while mounted is also fine
They aggro by sound
and then got sniped as well by lv31 mobs who exist for some reasons between me and lv27 fate
Question
hi im new to the ff14 community and havent bought the game or downloaded the free trial. where should i get the game, steam or directly from square enix store?
For the quest call of the sea am I supposed to walk?
!faq buy
ah thank you!!
Oh right
where can i find people doing old content like savages for mounts?
game is on sale till the 6th in the square enix store also
!faq partyfinder
ohhh!
Error!
No tag named partyfinder exists, Kupo!
yes, sometime after 6.0
ammm
does MSQ level you to 80 ?
yes
thats cool
do i have to get a role to use the party finder or?
yep, theres 700 msq quests tho
party finder is a ingame function
yes i know but i'm just looking for old savage content farm
im asking if there is like some place here in the discord where people gather to do it
you can try #recruitment-xxxx need to fetch your dc role to see it
but probably faster to do ingame
How long does Frontline even take?
max 20min
5 min que no matter the role (during primetime), 20 min max
Cool ty
can even que on a job and swap to another one and play that
eu dc prime is in like 45min+ around reset for frontline for like 1-3h after it its dead for the rest of the day till next daily reset
for NA eveningtime 7-10 est gave great ques
do collectibles gathered and crafter both count towards mentor status?
or need 300 of one or the other
To become a Trade mentor you will need to:
Gather or catch 300 collectables.
Synthesize 100 collectables.
Reach level 80 in any Disciple of the Land class.
Reach level 80 in any Disciple of Hand class.
oh i misread it then
300 catch

thanks for clearing it up tho
ye i thought it said gather or craft lol
where can i check how many ive caught so far?
Thanks,
Does the memory of the dying only start dropping after completing the questline
It goes to your inventory right
Yes
Wow I guess my luck is shit
You'll get a large pop up when you get one
Not a single 1 and I just got to rank 11
If you cluster farm you'll get alot
Cause you're killing 100 mobs across the map
In rapid succession
That requires a party right
You can solo farm but it's slower
Man I leveled my rank from 1 to 11 and I don't have a single one but I guess it's normal
they drop from 4th legion mobs
oh really?
shit
I read there are 3 different type of memories
People just farm magitek for the clusters on the side
Is fate farming faster
If you're solo
Didn't know you can do that
Clusters for a party
But fate farming sounds pretty boring lol
Yes exactly, sorry for late reply I'm at work 
You also need all slots filled with anything (except belt & off-hand)
Now this thing is saying “cannot launch final fantasy XIV.please register the promo code included in your package or download”
I’m so confused
hey guys, I'm trying to create a macro for my Aetherial Manipulation cast on mouse over, but I can't seem to figure it out... any help would be appreciated.
till when is fashion report time
Tuesday
kk
turn ins start on Fridays, reset is tuesday.
Not sure if it fixes it, but you should never put micon and merror before the commands
what is the use of fates nowadays?
exp, hunting down the fate rewards, getting the fate currency in shb to buy cool stuff
merror has to be at the top
also the mob fates give decent XP for Chocobo leveling.
so I put micon at the last line, and no difference.
