endwalker is separate, but buying it will get you sb + shb for "free" in ~50 days

[pure zenith]

like I said rn complete is everything pre endwalker
when endwalker releases it will be everything including endwalker

[warped nest]

Complete edition is Starter + latest expansion

So right now, complete is Starter + Shadowbringers

[obtuse crescent]

ok thank you i meant when endwalker comes out sorry

[warped nest]

If you are fairly early in the game

And you don't expect to progress fast

Then wait for Endwalker

It is

Time Until Endwalker:

47 days, 2 hours, 31 minutes, 17 seconds

[warped nest]

Ummm around 45+ days away

Thanks

6-7 weeks

[obtuse crescent]

thank yall I was just wanting to see what all I had to buy whenever I get to it

[old pivot]

hey guys I bought the starter version of ff14 instead of the complete version 😦

idk what to do

[dull relic]

new here. how does palace of the dead works?

[upper cove]

@old pivot if you want the expansions, buy shadow bringer now

Otherwise you're stuck with free trial content minus limitations @old pivot

[proud willow]

That's not a problem, buying Starter and Shadowbringers is exactly the same as buying Complete Edition

[warped nest]

If you don't mind waiting, Endwalker will be out in 6 weeks or so

Deep Dungeon Info

Deep Dungeon Play Guide

Effective Levelling Method
The commonly accepted method for levelling in POTD is to start at floor 51 and clear to 60, then reset the save and start back at floor 51, though if you don’t have floor 51 unlocked, 1-10 is an acceptable alternative.

For HoH the principle is the same, instead you’ll be running floors 21-30 instead.

[upper cove]

@dull relic

[warped nest]

Very short version on how potd works

[old pivot]

isn't it on sale right now

[warped nest]

Basically you go through a psuedo generated dungeons and clear floors

[obtuse crescent]

Gonna go have fun lvling my summoner yall have a good one

[noble orbit]

looks like it's on sale here

[warped nest]

Every 10 floors you face off with a boss

[noble orbit]

https://ffxivstorehub.square-enix-games.com/en_US

[warped nest]

If you are familiar with dungeon crawler, deep dungeon is kinda like that

[dull relic]

okay as for levelling? i heard its the "best" way to level a sub

[warped nest]

Not really

Leveling Guide for alt jobs

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

[warped nest]

Potd and hoh is good for DPS if your Dps jobs have horrible queue time

Standard leveling dungeons are still, and will always be, the best source of exp, relative to time required

[pure zenith]

dungeons are usually the best, the alternatives are usually either supplemental or to doge que times

[left whale]

horrible queue times is a forgone conclusion tho

[dull relic]

so its better to just queue for normal duty finders?

i heard there are the grand company solo dungeons are they the same thing?

[pure zenith]

its basically the same thing

[warped nest]

To optimize your exp yield from potd and hoh, you actually need to unlock one of the higher floors (which you need to do once)

[pure zenith]

just remember to queue for your highest level dungeon

and to do your daily roulette

[warped nest]

Furthermore, if you wipe on potd or hoh, you get nothing

[dull relic]

ahh

[obtuse crescent]

Is the starter edition 20 dollars on steam?

[dull relic]

so ill just stick to dungeons

[old pivot]

it costs as much as to buy the complete edition as buying the shadowbringer dlc
I need to refund my starter edition

[dull relic]

as for the PoTD how would the levelling work?

if i reset the progress for example

[warped nest]

I would like to supplement this: don't grind level 50/60/70 dungeons for exp, they were the endgame dungeons in their respective expansion so they were never meant for giving out good exp

[pure zenith]

yes but if youre willing to buy from square enix the complete is currently 24$

[obtuse crescent]

shit i thought the game just cost 20 dollars I've already bought it like 2 weeks ago

[old pivot]

how do I refund starter edition 😐

[warped nest]

For your potd, your aetherpool (your stat inside potd) carries over, and you are free to start new potd runs

[dull relic]

so if i just completed floors 1-10 and ended at level 22

ill stick to level 22 but if i reset the progress i would need to reclimb?

[obtuse crescent]

So since i have the starter edition would i get shadowbringers when endwalker comes out or no?

[warped nest]

Yes, Ecchi

[pure zenith]

no

you would have to buy endwalker then

[warped nest]

Endwalker will include Shadowbringers

[pure zenith]

starter only includes arr and hw

[warped nest]

Without additional cost

[pure zenith]

the latest expansion will include everything before it except those

[dull relic]

thanks

[obtuse crescent]

is that with it thru steam or square enix

[warped nest]

Both

This is not a store exclusive deal

It is how XIV deals with expansions

You don't need to buy 4 expansions to get the full experience

The full XIV experience is always buy Starter and current expansion

[left whale]

when a new expansion comes out, there will never be a reason to buy the older ones (if you somehow manage to buy one..)

[obtuse crescent]

Nice i really like that

[warped nest]

Current for the time being is Shadowbringers, and from the very beginning, it includes Stormblood, the previous expansion.

In 7 weeks, it will be Endwalker

[woeful breach]

Hey can someone help my friend is trying to be rogue and hes lvl 10 warrior so hes in limsa already but the quest is locked

[obtuse crescent]

O dang so endwalker, shadowbringer, and stormblood will all be 40 dollars when its out?

[woeful breach]

what does he need to do?

[warped nest]

Has he finished his marauder level 10 class quest?

[woeful breach]

ah prob not

tys

[warped nest]

Completion of the level 10 class quest of your starting class will unlock gear set. Which allows you to store gear loadout for different classes.

[left whale]

all the old expansions are packaged into the latest expansion
so yes, the later you start the game, the more expansions you're getting per dollar

[warped nest]

Unlocking gear set simultaneously unlocks the ability to unlock more classes

[left whale]

although i think EW is 60 dollars(?)

[warped nest]

Nope

Same price

[obtuse crescent]

ok thank yall and sorry for all the questions

[warped nest]

No problem

We are happy to help

[leaden ginkgo]

whats the name of this hair

[old pivot]

I sent in a ticket asking for a refund 😐

hopefully I get it

[dull relic]

does language affect the queue times for dungeons?

its awfully long waiting for a queue to pop

[warped nest]

Depending on your data center, yes

!faq dflanguage

[zinc orbit]

Why does it constantly take hours for my queue to pop

If you're on the EU or JP servers, it might be prudent to use the ⚙️ to change your duty finder settings to allow more players speaking different languages to be matched with you!

Image URL: https://imgur.com/xIPGDTn.png

[outer mural]

that looks modded

it's either a default hair option, or it's modded

[dull relic]

so if i wanna skip the queue time i would need to do the grand company version right?

[pure zenith]

grand company is you filling your team with bots basically

[warped nest]

Do take note that your squadrons are slower on clearing dungeons

[dull relic]

anyway to quickly grind grand company token for promotion?

[pure zenith]

you get them so fast and after a couple of ranks you get the option to just hand in greens and above for seals that theres no one set way

[leaden ginkgo]

👀

[dull relic]

ahh alright will give that a try

[drowsy hornet]

question that's probably been asked before:
I am on free trial. Can I just get Endwalker or do I need to upgrade to starter or complete edition first?
(PC, not Steam)

[toxic fiber]

im confused on buyuing the game

i downloaded the free trial on steam but can i buy the game thru square enix website?

[jagged holly]

!faq buy

[zinc orbit]

How to buy the game

Click here for NA

Click here for EU

Click here for JP

Image by /u/Alimantado

[sonic urchin]

When EW releases will the price of complete edition be the same as it is now or will it change?

[jagged holly]

when EW releases buying EW= completed edition

btw this line: may be relevant too you

[cursive ridge]

can i turn off the preorder earring xp bonus?

[upper cove]

@dull relic yes. For JP data centres like elemental. Just enable everything

[drowsy hornet]

isn't the xp bonus an item, ring or an earing

simply don't equip it

[upper cove]

Take off the earrings

[cursive ridge]

i guess i can glamour the earring on huh

[upper cove]

That works if you only want the looks yea

[solid basin]

do I need to max my pyros weapon stats in order to proceed with hydatos weapon?

[upper cove]

If its the +1 +2 iirc yes. I've only read guides briefly though might be wrong

[solid basin]

I mean after that, the one with the smoked protean

[upper cove]

OK that I'm not familiar mb

[drowsy hornet]

follow up question. Is a purchase an immediate upgrade or is it a code Can I preorder Endwalker. Activate the code later (I assume I won't be done with the trial by release) and still get preorder bonuses?

[sonic urchin]

thank you

[jagged holly]

yes absolutly correct

wait

i do not know what happens if youa ctivate the code after release

but like if you use it before release its absolutly gucci

[drowsy hornet]

time to get playing then

[jagged holly]

like you dont need too reach the end of free trial too use it. i used mine earlier becasue i wanted too join a FC

[drowsy hornet]

I know

[cursive ridge]

i reached the 300k gil cap at like level 40 and went 'welp guess i'm buying the game'

[jagged holly]

there is a guide soemwhere
with one time pruchases you can do in free trial (minions and stuff) so you dont waste gil

[drowsy hornet]

I spend some on glamour mats

[river vortex]

are high level bosses generally twitchy assholes who wont stop spinning and keep messing positionals?

[cursive ridge]

i'm saving for a chance at an estate, already at 3.7m so i can afford a small one if one pops up

[solemn jewel]

Seems like ur tank is bad

[left whale]

or just e11s

[river vortex]

probably that too, but the boss spins around to hit a random party member before focusing on the tank again

[solemn jewel]

Oh that's normal

[left whale]

so its e11s after all

[river vortex]

its titan lmao. lvl 50

im not even past SB

[solemn jewel]

Just wait until they spin around again

[river vortex]

Am i supposed to predict he is about to spin and weave true north or smth?

[solemn jewel]

Or move with him.
Idk how mobile samurai is

[left whale]

well, i suppose if i were to min max my titan runs..
its less so predicting but more so knowing it will happen
raids/trials are kinda scripted(?) to varying degrees

buuut i dont 🤷‍♀️

[solemn jewel]

Like if this is titan hard he mostly turns around to gaol someone iirc

[river vortex]

yeah that one

but he turns around to use the line attack too

[left whale]

im amused to hear that titan is the standard for twitchy
meanwhile fatebreaker: does a barrel roll and a backflip

[cursive ridge]

i only played DRG as melee but for them, especially at low levels, missing a positional is just going from a 330 potency attack to 290

[solemn jewel]

I wouldn't call titan twitchy ngl

[left whale]

he's a rock sumo, how agile can he be
its not like he's got wheels

[river vortex]

i mean, its not the standard. Its just the one i just fought

[solemn jewel]

Also i did Tower at Paradigms Breach yesterday

[solemn jewel]

Drivers license acquired

[mystic niche]

So my friend bought a dark knight job skip, but no matter where we go we cannot seem to find where to find the old job armor sets for 50 60 and 70

[twin bobcat]

No

Skip straight to Hydatos

[mystic niche]

is there anywhere specific I am missing other than mor dona and calamity salvager?

[cursive ridge]

calamity salvager for 70, crafted for 50, centurio seals from 60

iirc

50 is the "Heavy Wolfram" crafted set

60 is "Chaos" set from centurio

70 is "Abyss" from salvager

[left whale]

you treasure your chaos burger helmet that much more when u realize that shits from centurio seals if u lose the darn thing

!action Thunder III

[zinc orbit]

**Thunder III** : lvl 45 BLM (400 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.5 second base cast time)

Deals lightning damage with a potency of 70.
Additional Effect: Lightning damage over time
Potency: 40
Duration: 24s
Additional Effect: 10% chance after each tick that the next Thunder spell of any grade will add its full damage over time amount to its initial damage, have no cast time, and cost no MP
Duration: 18s
Only one Thunder spell-induced damage over time effect per caster can be inflicted upon a single target.

Powered by XIVAPI

[cursive ridge]

i dumped mine it's ugly

[upper tree]

This doesn't stack damage?

[cursive ridge]

with itself? no, only one thunder effect from YOU can be active at the same time on the target

[upper tree]

I am hitting dummies over 3-4 stacks and it's same per tick

The additional effect

says it adds full damage over time

[cursive ridge]

from a proc

when you do the instant one it does the damage

[twin bobcat]

The proc merely adds up the dot damage into one cast

And reapplies the dot as well

[upper tree]

Oh, so instead of doing 70 it will do 110?

[uneven wedge]

I'm very confused about friend recruitment flow - I don't see a button spelling "enter recruitment code" under "registration codes" line in my Mogstation page. screenshots say it should have 3 buttons ("enter item code" + "enter pre-order bonus code" + "enter recruitment code") but I only see one button - "enter item code".

[cursive ridge]

instead of doing like 70 damage it will do like 600 damage with its initial hit

[twin bobcat]

390

[upper tree]

Oh, I get it, it does full time damage as initial and

restarts dot

[cursive ridge]

yes

[twin bobcat]

Yes

[upper tree]

I was hoping it adds dot damage 😄

[twin bobcat]

Just snapshot it under raidbuffs 4head

[cursive ridge]

that would be affliction warlock

ah, they turned "recruit a friend" into a picture banner, not a button

!action Sharpcast

**Sharpcast** : lvl 54 BLM (60.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Ensures the next Scathe, Fire, or Thunder spell cast will, for the first hit, trigger Scathe's additional effect, Firestarter, or Thundercloud respectively.
Duration: 15s

Powered by XIVAPI

[upper tree]

So when used with this you want to cast another at the end

or do you ever use it for thunder?

[cursive ridge]

thunder 2\4 for aoe, fire for single target

no idea why scathe is even an option

[twin bobcat]

Could you elaborate on this

[upper tree]

Yes, Thunder III lasts longer than it's additional effect

[fresh viper]

can you get Allied on ARR beast tribes after maxing out each one? or is that only for HW onwards

[cursive ridge]

don't quote me on this, but I believe that you should use procs as soon as they are available, but you should make sure you're using them when your global cooldown is running, so not during regular casts, as that munches into your casting time

oh and also make sure that firestarter proc doesn't leave you with no mana

[proven kayak]

Um

So

[ashen ginkgo]

I'm on free trial and just hit fishing level 60. Am I stuck at 60 unless I buy the game?

[proven kayak]

What do I do if I may have discarded my shepard's robesss

[solid basin]

yes

[proven kayak]

for the level 60 quest

[arctic magnet]

Yes

[proven kayak]

that requires themmm

[upper tree]

I see, I can cast procs then when I instacast other staff or if cast time is shorter than recast time

[wispy basalt]

ahem.

[upper tree]

but firestarter proc doesn't cost mana

[cursive ridge]

yes, but it might appear when you switch to ice phase with very low mana

if you press firestarter then, now you're in fire phase with no mana

[upper tree]

Yeah, don't start astral phase without max mana

[proven kayak]

How do I complete Honorable heroes without shepard's robes

and the shoesssss...

[placid hornet]

Hey guys, switched my game from HDD to SDD without problems 3 days ago, but yesterday my game crashed while doing a summoner job quest with the "could not locate data files" message , tried reinstalling the game overnight but i still have the same error message while finishing the fight

can you abandon the quest and start over?

figured it out

[uneven wedge]

I'm a trial player (completed HW and most of other content available on trial). I'd like to upgrade to full game and my original plan was to wait for Endwalker to come out, when EW license would grant access to SB+SHB. However, I just noticed a 60% sale in Square Enix store, so Complete edition is tempting - I'll be able to catch up to the story before Endwalker comes out for a fairly low price (a bit more than 30 days are left so I'll need to top up game time, but that's fine, EW license doesn't include it in any case). I have a friend that got me into FFXIV and I'd like to make sure they get referral bonuses if I switch to a full account with Complete Edition purchase. When and where do I ender their referral code? I'm guessing I'll get activation code from SE store, and I'll enter it here in MogStation, but I don't see any step where you enter referral code so far.

[tight blaze]

Hi everyone, im an australian and im wondering which server would be best for me. Sorry if this is a very frequent question

[regal pawn]

You put in the referral code after you register the game

[regal pawn]

!faq worldpick

[zinc orbit]

'Which world should I pick?'

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.

Notable worlds:

• Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
• Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
• Moogle (Large amount of French players)
• Shiva (Large amount of German players)
  ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

[regal pawn]

Tomberry and Kujata
I don't remember on which Japanese DC though

[uneven wedge]

The friend system help page says it's not possible to enter recruitment code after you become a subscriber and "complete edition" says it'll add 30 days to your subscription, so I'm not entirely sure how that'll work

[regal pawn]

It's free days, not a sub

You basically have 30 days to enter a code

[uneven wedge]

Ah, so in sequence:

• Activate complete edition
• Enter recruitment code
• Use mogstation to enter payment info and start subscription

[regal pawn]

Yeah

[uneven wedge]

Are treasure maps a one a day thing from gathering or as often as you can get them

[dusty shard]

every 18 hour

[wispy basalt]

what to do if the q is longer than 40m

[wispy orbit]

I like to go do some beast dailies, gatherer leves.

Catch up on alt job quests

[wispy basalt]

😕 i've done those

[wispy orbit]

Watch Netflix and wait for the ping sound

[civic garnet]

what exactly is Square Enixs stance on mods, looking at something called the XIVlauncher, specifically the XIVCombo Mod

[wispy basalt]

ughh i dont have netflix but thanks for helping

[wispy orbit]

Don't ask don't tell basically

As long you don't advertise it or use it to harass other players...

[civic garnet]

is there a specific line they draw since this one apparently incorporates a system similiar to the pvp combo system which effects gameplay which is why i ask

whereas a reshade is obv not gameplay oriented

[wispy orbit]

Hmm, anything that changes gameplay sounds risky

[civic garnet]

yea thats why i asked

apparently it just mimics the combo style system of pvp

so 1-2-3 are all on one button

What are the best beast quests if i'm trying to use all 12 allowances?

[dusty shard]

if I turn the lvl 50 crafter quest main hand into lucia version

can I still put them into the armore version ?

[obsidian patio]

No, but it lets you buy them back from the calamity salvager

[wispy orbit]

Whichever ones you want to work on

[obsidian patio]

Depends on what you want to level up, really

[dusty shard]

i see, then i'm not upgrading them then

[obsidian patio]

Each beast tribe is “best” for a different set of levels and classes

[wispy orbit]

I like faeries to level 70+ alts, dwarves for crafters over 70

Namazu are crafters in the 60s.

They all have different rewards that make doing them worthwhile

I'm going for the dwarf tank currently

[cursive ridge]

huh, i was browsing my list of unlocked 50 dungeons and noticed "Stone Vigil (Hard)" but then I went to Mor Dhona, took the quest for it, went to the entrance and it said "Stone Vigil (Hard)" unlocked. what's happening here?

[prisma hill]

The Vanu Vanu are the worst.

I'm just doing the heavensward beast tribes for the dances.

[upper tree]

In the char edit can you change job outfit?

[prisma hill]

yeah when selecting starting job

[upper tree]

No, when re-editing

[hasty musk]

you might have abandoned the quest before?

[cursive ridge]

i might have...

[prisma hill]

You could also download Endwalker benchmark, it lets you cycle through some ingame gear sets

you can seve the character presets in the benchmark and it shows up in the main game

[upper tree]

Cool, let me try

[solemn jewel]

The benchmark has only packaging job gear and some specific stuff.

*paladin

Thanks auto correct

[spiral mango]

how much exp from lvl 79 to 80 ?

[prisma hill]

yeah but its more than what you can see in the ingame character creator xD

[solemn jewel]

I mean is it? If u don't plan to play a paladin or get these special outfits its not much of use

[prisma hill]

give me asec

yeah the list goes on past the paladin ones a bit

[solemn jewel]

Yea but they aren't really sets u gonna use imo

[prisma hill]

I count about 30 sets

It gives you an idea about how your character will look xD

[hidden gate]

Aye is this Nero fella the last boss I kinda like him ion know why

[prisma hill]

No, he just Cid's boyfriend.

[hidden gate]

Dang

[upper tree]

When I launch benchmark it opens black window and then it closes

doesn't start

[hidden gate]

Can I get his armor?

[prisma hill]

Did you click character creation first?

[upper tree]

Yes

and then it just closes itself

[barren granite]

which job leads to paladin ?

[frosty kelp]

Gladiator

[prisma hill]

No idea, loads for me.

Maybe play around in settings

Could be conerning if you can't run the Endwalker benchmark.

[upper tree]

Are there any logs?

[prisma hill]

though strange if you can run the main game

what gpu and cpu do you have?

[upper tree]

but not GPU

Is it better to unlock side dungeons and trials? Like those blue quests that unlock stuff in the duty finder

[upper tree]

GPU NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Ti

[frosty kelp]

yeah i would unlock that stuff as you come to it. Then it will show up in your duty roulettes

[stark hawk]

I read that repeating tower of the dead level 40-50 is a good way to level up an alt. But I cant seem to find a button that let's replay it again. It makes me continue to the next 50-60.

[minor shard]

is there a way to find a group faster for eden clear? like no duty findere

[spare rover]

Yeah I thought the same, more content unlocked means more chances for them to show up in duty finder

[frosty kelp]

Yeah and there is some really critical features and side content even besides dungeons from blue quests. youre going to want access to all that

[prisma hill]

Some trials are neat, also required for some mounts.

[cursive ridge]

it's 51-60, not 40-50

after you beat floor 50 you can start a new save from floor 51

[prisma hill]

tower of the dead if you got a party and no waiting times.

But its mega boring

If you have the menfilia earings from Endwalker preorder than its faster to use regular dungeons or squadrons.

I actually found that the squadron npcs kill things faster than some sprout runs lol

[cursive ridge]

squadron tanks are so dumb though

"using aoe abilities when tanking a pack? no sir"

[prisma hill]

yeah, I found that the gladiator tank is better than the warrior

pally has more aoe for agro it seems or uses it more keeps it better

It's like night and day, the marauder tank can't keep any agor the gladiator does semi well for me

[cursive ridge]

paladin aoe is easier to aim

fat chance of a NPC warrior aiming overpower correctly

[prisma hill]

yeah

Also when you max their offensive thing they do kill stuff fast.

[upper tree]

Welp, I hope endwalker doesn't crash on me like it's benchmark is

[shut panther]

Are you using a laptop?

[upper tree]

Yes

[shut panther]

The benchmark might not be binding to your dgpu properly if it's a model with one

I had that problem with my laptop, forcing the benchmark to use dgpu in the driver setting fixed it

[upper tree]

I've changed global gpu preference to dgpu

and app shows it when I open now

[shut panther]

Oh, if it's an external GPU that might be a completely different bag of worms

[upper tree]

You can unzip it anywhere?

No it's internal

but dedicated

[shut panther]

Ah, same situation then

I think I just ran mine out of documents or something

[upper tree]

It opens up, black window and then closes

Same?

[shut panther]

I meant in that you have a laptop with dgpu that you forced in driver

Unfortunately for you that made mine work, seems that's not your problem

[stark hawk]

I just did that. And I am only getting floor 1 and 51 to replay. Can I not get every other floor that I completed?

[cursive ridge]

only 1 and 51

[spare rover]

What are the benefits of doing PoD?

[hidden gate]

Does your company matter?

[hasty musk]

different grand companies have armor sets that look different but other than that, no not really

[stark hawk]

So I only get floor 1 and the floor that I reset on?

[cursive ridge]

no, only 1 and 51

[hidden gate]

Which set looks coolest?

[hasty musk]

PoD? do you mean palace of the dead?

[hasty musk]

personal preference, I think the Flames gear looks cool

[hidden gate]

Mkay

[hasty musk]

If you want to look like a pirate you can go Maelstrom tho

[hidden gate]

Ohh ok

[cursive ridge]

https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/gearsets?filter[orderBy]=patch&filter[showGear]=set&filter[showFemale]=0&search=&filter[contentType][]=grand-company&filter[maximumLvl]=80&filter[save]=&page=1

[stark hawk]

oh so even if i reset on floor 20 ill still only get 1 and 51

[cursive ridge]

after you kill lvl 50 boss once yes

[spare rover]

I went Inmortal Flames Does it mean I will look like Raubahn?

[cursive ridge]

click the link above

[hasty musk]

you can't get Raubahn's outfit specifcally

but you can always switch later

so you can get all the outfits

[jade quartz]

Not exactly.

You can only wear or glam Grand Company outfits of the GC you're currently aligned with.

If you switch, those outfits become unequippable/unglammable until you switch back to that GC

[hasty musk]

wild

til

[cursive ridge]

i just did pharos sirius for the first time and uhhh

can i get the last boss plushie or something for my apartment

tried searching for "Siren" but nothing's there

[jade quartz]

ingame? no

[tropic flame]

i guess you could get a garuda minion

[cursive ridge]

what about other gifted individuals? i know the 24man from heavensward drops parts to craft a pretty boss lady figurine

[jade quartz]

gifted individuals?

[cursive ridge]

gifted with girth

[jade quartz]

ok so you want titty statues 😔

there's miniature sophia and miniature lakshmi.

[tropic flame]

[shut panther]

I hope wowhead`s model viewer will support housing items

[tropic flame]

there's a lakshimi minion too

so you can bring them around

[peak garnet]

I was in castrum lacus for 30 minute following people and I have no idea what I was doing

[regal pawn]

That's castrum for you

[cursive ridge]

that is the correct way of doing it

[regal pawn]

Now get ready for the same thing but now 80% cutscene with Praetorium

[toxic fiber]

questiona bout armory bonus

[regal pawn]

answer

[peak garnet]

one question tho, the last beast boss, the one where you have to up stage

how does his attacks work

I cannot figure out for the life of me how the rock pattern evolves

[stark hawk]

To what level should I level up by grinding the tower of the dead 51-60?

[toxic fiber]

so in order for me to get the armory bonus i need to have a class max lvl

[regal pawn]

nope

just need a job above your current

[hasty musk]

60

[toxic fiber]

wait what

[regal pawn]

You can have a lvl 20 job and your lvl 2 job will get 100% bonus combat xp

[toxic fiber]

ohh ok

[stark hawk]

till 60?! damn i barely get one level from doing one run at class level 30

[regal pawn]

And the bonus drops after 70
1-70 - 100%
71-80 - 50%

[slim raft]

Is there a pathfinder for gathering?

[toxic fiber]

where do i check that out? in the character menu right?

[regal pawn]

It's just a thing that's active

If you have a job above your current, you have the bonus

[toxic fiber]

ohh ok thank you again

[hasty musk]

you can always break up the monotony with dungeons and/or command missions if you have those unlocked and npcs leveled

and remember to do leveling roulette daily if you aren't already

if you have the patience, msq roulette also gives a shit ton of exp

[regal pawn]

Yup

If you get Praetorium, you can just watch youtube or something

or make a breakfast

[hasty musk]

although msq roulette isn't until 50

[prisma hill]

Depends on how fast you do it, also if you have any xp buffs like Endwalker earings and FC buff.

[regal pawn]

iirc earring doesn't buff the xp

since it's only combat xp

[prisma hill]

yeah, meant that you do dungeons instead

[regal pawn]

ah ye

Well they were talking about potd so

But yeah, dungeons are pretty solid as well
IF you get a good queue

which is why Squadron dungeons are a good alternative for DPS

[prisma hill]

I have the earings + FC buff + the 15% buff that youe squadron gets from one mission.

So it goes really fast.

[fringe reef]

hi, what do I have to do to get to the 3rd line? When I had 9 seals last time i could only pick from the first one

[regal pawn]

fc buff doesn't stack with the squadron scroll 😛

[hasty musk]

rng

[regal pawn]

you need to get 3 lines

Pray to RNGesus

[spare rover]

I usually right click the item and select "search by gathering". if it is not there I use the webpage Team Craft and it usually shows all the ways to get an item

[fringe reef]

3 lines?

[hasty musk]

on the top right

[hasty musk]

you see the panel with the stickers?

when those line up

[fringe reef]

i think i get it now

[regal pawn]

You need to get seals in either of those specific patterns

[prisma hill]

Really, thought I saw it stacking.

[fringe reef]

thanks

[prisma hill]

😩 I've been bamboozeled

[regal pawn]

😩

don't worry, so was i

[prisma hill]

think the FC buff is stronger anyway

[regal pawn]

i think fc buff 3 is 15%

[prisma hill]

I don;t remember but I think I'm always at 153% with FC buff + food

Which would make it 20% + Earings 30%

[cursive ridge]

if you're at 150%, it's likely just rested+armory

[prisma hill]

Rested puits me at 200%

Well i guess i'll just use the scroll whenever the fc buff runs out or gets switched

doesn't really matter

[spare rover]

Is there a place where you can find tips or rotations for DoH skills? I have also heard people use macros for those

[obsidian patio]

#doh-dol-lounge has a pin with a bunch of leveling rotation macros

And yes crafters can effectively use macros to make crafting a high quality item 100% consistently

[prisma hill]

https://ffxivteamcraft.com/community-rotations

fill in for the recepie and it will show you some rotation macros to copy paste

[obsidian patio]

Or use the simulator to freely test out rotations with zero risk faster than doing test synthesis ingame

[prisma hill]

Or be a lazy bum like me.

I don't even know what half my craftging skills do and ahve all crafters at l 80

[spiral mango]

so i was watching this

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eowGglNPGw0

it felt like a seminar lmao

[leaden ginkgo]

anyone knows why i cannot see zalera in my destination to transfer? but i can see congested worlds to choose

my friend can pick zalera on their side tho

[spiral mango]

after half an hour, i was like : "yeah, that's a bit hard"

[hot eagle]

do you allrdy have 1 character on it? since if you are on entry sub you cant have more as 1 character per world

[raw granite]

Hardest content in the game for a reason baby

[spiral mango]

dang

[spiral mango]

if Endwalker brings an even harder raid than this one, it will hype me so much

content like this is what hypes me

[leaden ginkgo]

oh thank you! i was so confused for 15mins lol

[spiral mango]

im only lvl 66 but im gettin' there #soon™️

[hot eagle]

6.1 should give us the next ultimate dragonsong war which was delayed because of covid

but take it with a grain of salt, date can probably move a bit

since endwalker also does the stat squish and balancing it will probably be a lot work again

[spiral mango]

whats a stat squish

[raw granite]

When you lower the stats hike from one level to another

Diminishing damage and health values, in the end

[hot eagle]

The downscaling will reduce various values at level 80 / item level 530 to roughly a fifth of what they currently are. All content will be assessed for balance after the downscaling, but we assure you that they will feel almost entirely the same as before. Admittedly, enemies in certain old content which were easily crushed with high item levels may feel tougher than before, but that will be hardly noticeable after level 80. Additionally, rewards may be rebalanced for content that is affected by the downscaling.

We chose to downscale values at this time as the current value balance will eventually result in various values becoming enormous, leading to in-game issues, problems with enmity management, and other concerns. We hope you’ll understand that this process is necessary in order for us to continue development and operations for many years to come.

Separately from downscaling, the rate at which experience points are gained between 2.0 and 5.0 have been readjusted. The changes are enough to allow you to level up multiple jobs as you progress with quests.

[lilac nacelle]

Samurai Question: Does Kaiten influence tsubame-gaeshi? My guess is no since it's an ability and kaiten influences weaponskills?

[regal pawn]

it doesn't

[devout lichen]

is the makai mauler completely unobtainable?

[quartz flint]

Hey people! We just bought an FC House. What's more worth our time, the submarine or an airship?

[worn flume]

sub

[quartz flint]

Any reason why?

[gloomy mortar]

Sub

[hasty musk]

Yup

[barren granite]

is there savage version of final coils ?

or only 2nd ?

[hasty musk]

I believe it's only second coil

[barren granite]

k

[hasty musk]

But coils are savage difficulty by default

The savage naming convention wasn't set in stone back then the way it is now

[gloomy mortar]

Is there a way to see which dungeon I last played in and how much exp I got? I recently queued for a alliance roulette raid, got a phone call, when I came back, I was logged off due to afk, but after logging in again, I apparently I got the daily reward for the raid. 😮

[obsidian patio]

airships have more outdated/older stuff for the most part, so most of the things you'd get from it aren't that valuable

[hybrid notch]

Unless you're using a third party tool, no. Do you have the xp/tombstones you were expecting?

[fringe reef]

I have been doing my Anima weapon, and I am currently at the part where I made 1 new born soulstone (born again anima), It wants me to do certain activities but It doesnt list anything. Any idea what I have to do? Do I have to make another newborn soulstone?

[obsidian patio]

complete level 50-60 content with the weapon equipped.

[fringe reef]

aaaah

[obsidian patio]

most people doing it solo spam level 50 dungeons unsynced

[fringe reef]

i will try that too than

[obsidian patio]

the fastest group method is doing Eyes of The Creator Savage, the 9th floor of alexander savage, undersized with a full party of people at level 80.

[fringe reef]

oof, that i dont have yet i will try the solo dungeons

[gloomy mortar]

@hybrid notch ah ok. No loot, but have exp. I’m guessing it was an Alexander trial or else I would have thought I would have been kicked due to inactivity lol

[hybrid notch]

I think if you get kicked you don't get rewarded. Must of been a trial or normal raid that finished before the 30 minutes

[obsidian patio]

alliance raid would only be the 24-mans if that's what you queued for

fastest i usually see them clear is around 20 or so minutes depending on the exact one

[gloomy mortar]

I queued for a lvl 60 alliance raid daily roulette

[obsidian patio]

sounds like you mean normal raids then

[gloomy mortar]

Yeah

[obsidian patio]

since alliance raid is technically a level 50 roulette

[hybrid notch]

No, you can get 60, 70 and 80 alliance raids from the roulette

[spare rover]

What are the benefits of doing solo dungeons unsynced?

[hybrid notch]

That's actually how I finished two of my Nier raids lol

[gloomy mortar]

Lol

[twilit arch]

that's nnot what wynne is saying

alliance roulette is min lvl 50

so it is technically a lv 50 roulette

[fringe reef]

quic objective completions for quest such as run this once or finish this once / farming gears

[hybrid notch]

? In order to do any raid you have to be 50, normal or alliance. Unless he was saying it wasn't a trial in the first place

[twilit arch]

normal raid roulette is min lv60

[prisma hill]

https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Category:Anima_Weapons

[twilit arch]

binding coil of bahamut is not in any roulette

so you need atleast min alexander unlocked to do it

which is lv60

[hybrid notch]

True, but Admiral said it was a lvl 60, not 50

[twilit arch]

which is why wynne suggested it may have been a normal raid

and not alliance

[hybrid notch]

But you can get lvl 60 alliance raids

[twilit arch]

they are usually not as quick as CT raids however

so if they had gotten their rewards for the roulette in the time it took for them to be kicked, its likely it was a quicker run

[hybrid notch]

Ah. I guess the wording confused me

[lilac thicket]

how to check which dye i used on a item? (i don't remember if its soot black or some other black, it was 4 months ago...)

[twilit arch]

is the item still dyed?

[lilac thicket]

yes

[twilit arch]

then look at the tooltip

it'll say the dye on there

[lilac thicket]

oh dang... i was looking in the dye menu trying to figure it out...

[gloomy mortar]

My computer is off, but yeah, it was a Normal Raid 60. I have everything unlocked. I got the daily roulette reward despite getting auto-logged off due to afk

[twilit arch]

its likely they completed the raid before you got kicked

[long lintel]

Does higher level mobs give higher chance of drops of an item that also drops from lower levels?

[gloomy mortar]

Yeah lol Interesting that you can still get credit despite not leaving the raid after it finished

[twilit arch]

you don't need to leave to get the reward

you get the roulette reward when the instance is complete

[hybrid notch]

Is it worth it to get i530 gear before starting savage? You end up replacing a lot of pieces with the gear you get from savage for BiS

[gloomy mortar]

Ah lol

[devout lichen]

I assume doing eden titan savage is not very realistic in duty finder

[obsidian patio]

You can always look at your job's BiS list and only spend Revelation on the slots that use augmented revelation

and use other gear for the other slots, like the augmented exarchic or yorha gear from paradigm's breach

as long as you're like i515-520 on average you'll be more than fine for doing savage gear-wise

[hybrid notch]

I main rdm, and have i520 gear fully melded. I'm just wondering if I should grind some more before trying pf

[obsidian patio]

pretty much any savage raid at all is extremely unlikely to be cleared in duty finder, if it does pop.

[hasty musk]

You're more likely to be waiting for hours, when you could have probably gotten a group of 8 in pf and done a few dozen pulls by that time

[little swift]

This tier is completable on i510. With the tier unlocked and echo on 15% 520 is more than enough. What's important is having food as well

[leaden ginkgo]

Does helm of light and brand new ring exp boosts only count for mob kills ?

[twilit arch]

yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Ah ok

[uneven wedge]

how do you unlock Gods of Eld quest? I'm at Torsefers (Last Vigil, Ishgard), who is supposed to be the questgiver for the start of the Warring Triads chain, but there is no Gods of Eld quest available from him - only two generic yellow quests.

the wiki says HW story is the only prerequisite for this

[hybrid notch]

I have food and potions. I wanted to try and find a static, but I'm not having any luck lol

[twilit arch]

is it possible you already picked it up/completed it?

[uneven wedge]

hmm, maybe it was a very short quest and giver changes for next step. I'll check next possible step, thank you.

[twilit arch]

ye it is

[little swift]

Its extremely late into the tier, very few statics still exist for the purpose of prog of this tier

[twilit arch]

check the solar in the rising stones

[hybrid notch]

You have to complete some earlier trials iirc

[little swift]

Pf is your best bet

[twilit arch]

no, gods of eld simply requires the main scenario quest "heavensward" done

[uneven wedge]

I completed every HW trial (the original ones, marked "hard")

didn't complete Minstrel Ballad for Thordan nor Nidhogg though

are these 2 necessary too?

[twilit arch]

no

like i said

check the solar in the rising stones

[uneven wedge]

hmm, right, will do!

[carmine turret]

any way to solo regular duty instead wait 8+ mins?

[obsidian patio]

!faq unsync

[zinc orbit]

How to do Group Instances by Yourself or Without Enough People

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.

Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/A89hsAL.png

[hybrid notch]

The wiki says it's actually started in Ishgard

[twilit arch]

they said they already checked the initial quest giver

[carmine turret]

ty

[hybrid notch]

Yeah, I'm behind. As you said, maybe you already have the quest in your journal?

[gloomy mortar]

Any Suggestions for Birthday party favors? I thought about Nameday Cakes, but many don’t have rooms/houses to put it in, so they’re useless.

[uneven wedge]

you were right, it was in the solar!

the first step was probably "go talk to that other guy" and the first quest ended there

didn't even register as a new quest chain and I probably forgot about it

[gloomy mortar]

Can you buy more Dataqi Standards once you complete the fate chain? Or just one reward per chain?

[obsidian patio]

One per chain

A vendor won’t sell it

[gloomy mortar]

😮🍡

[spiral mango]

damn all of these quests and im barely in the middle of stormblood lol

[frozen thistle]

does anyone know a gear that can be bought from MB to be used to turn into GC seals real quick?

[leaden ginkgo]

I’ve just gotten to ishgard and I’m trying to do the level 52 paladins quest which requires me to get to the falcons nest, how far in heavensward do I need to go to unlock it ?

[frozen thistle]

not too far, just do the quest that brings you there

[devout lichen]

why does chocobo race have insane delay by the way

you press jump and it jumps a good second later

[hasty musk]

If you want GC seals just farm dungeon gear

[hasty musk]

Not very

It's like the first area you go to that's not the main city

[sonic urchin]

how do purchasing costumes work ?

[hazy totem]

Can you farm coins off nier alliance raid already, or they're once a week still ? (ones you buy stuff to upgrade cryptlurker gear with)

[wary tartan]

You can farm

An alternative to get the augment stuff is to do hunts, if you want

[hazy totem]

Which would be more efficent ?

[honest anvil]

raids can be done anytime
hunts you need to wait for trains

both are slow … so do both

[wary tartan]

Raids are more efficient, but hunts give you other stuff as well

[warped nest]

Nier raids has good music, if you are into those

[hazy totem]

Nah, i did complete it on multiple occasions already, somewhat sick and tired of it, playing with spotify or yt in background, game sounds off 😛

[drowsy hornet]

What would you recommend wasting several thousands gil for a free trial player that's about to hit the 300k cap

[hazy totem]

Buy gold bags off market

Store your gold that way

Else keep ones you get from quests

[drowsy hornet]

buy from where?

[hazy totem]

There should be some available on marketplace

[warped nest]

Free trial players cannot use marketboard

[hazy totem]

Ah, didn't even know that >.<

Well, no clue then

[last dock]

How do I turn off cutscenes for dungeons i've already done?

[gritty oracle]

Character config - first page

[last dock]

Thanks. What about mount music?

[regal pawn]

system > audio

[devout lichen]

why can't I duel my friend in triple triad

[devout lichen]

says that they are unable to play at this time

[gritty oracle]

/mountbgm off

[last dock]

Thanks

[gritty oracle]

Could be in a duel restricted zone, not have a proper deck, haven't unlocked TT, in party/queue could possibly affect it?

Duel restricted zone is basically anywhere outside of aetheryte areas outside of cities, and inns inside of cities

[devout lichen]

we are in battle hall and I'm choosing draft so it shouldn't matter

[leaden ginkgo]

If I'm level 72 then should I be leveling to 80 in Bozja or should I be elsewhere?

[gritty oracle]

Roulettes, pixies, then Bozja

[leaden ginkgo]

cool cool I've got those unlocked, thanks!

[devout lichen]

he is on free trial but the restrictions don't say anything about not being able to do triple triad

[gritty oracle]

Oh, I think you have to sign up with the bunny ears lady to be able to PvP! I think.

[devout lichen]

the lodestone page doesn't say anything about that

[gritty oracle]

When I was doing tournament, I couldn't directly challenge people, I had to sign up with the bunny ears ladies and be matchmade. Would check her options out

[devout lichen]

I'm not doing a tournament

I want to duel somebody

not tournament

[leaden ginkgo]

what’s the fastest method to getting aetherpool grips? matched parties at floor 50?

hi there :3 when i try launching ff14 via steam it opens up this window, stays like this for a while, and then closes without any notifications or error messages, what can i do? i would like to avoid reinstalling the game if at all possible uwu

[wintry trellis]

I'm lvl 80 but my lvl 80 dungeons tab on my DR is locked?

[warped nest]

You need at least two dungeons unlocked

To form a roulette

[twilit arch]

you need to unlock all of the lv 80 dungeons, barring the last two, to unlock the lv 80 dungeon roulette

[warped nest]

Oh, all of it?

[regal pawn]

yeah, that one is weird

[twilit arch]

there are two optional dungeons for it, one in crystarium and one in eulmore slums

the max lvl roulette always requires all max lvl dungeons unlocked to do it

because it has a much smaller amount of dungeons required

the other ones don't as the list is much larger

[warped nest]

Fair point

[sturdy brook]

does doing solo unsync runs of HW extremes give Lannars? I did like 3 runs of Ravena and no birb

[twilit arch]

yes, rng is rng

[carmine turret]

can you get notify for duty finder in discord?

[sturdy brook]

I just want to confirm it does work so i don't waste my time

would be funny if i had to be synced or smf

[hasty turtle]

can you only get edenmorn gear from savage?

[sour pumice]

No but i think theres an addon for that

[twilit arch]

correct

[hasty turtle]

exarchic / non augmented cryptlurker is fine for prog gear for now right?

[twilit arch]

you still have to do savage for the books

[warped nest]

Prog gear for what?

[hasty turtle]

eden savage

[warped nest]

Yeah, that's fine

[twilit arch]

aug exarchic/cryptlurker is fine yes

[warped nest]

Try to grab augmented cryptlurker

Just do the Nier raids for the augmentation material

[hasty turtle]

i dont think there's enough time for that at this point

[chilly barn]

can i make archer armour look like the paladin one ? ( the big heavy one ) ?

[warped nest]

No

[chilly barn]

that's a bummer..

[warped nest]

Your gears cannot break their requirements when you glamour them

So a gear that wearable by a lvl 50 ranged physical dps

Cannot ignore that requirement when you glamour them

[obsidian patio]

There's a couple heavy-armored sets here and there that non-tanks can use

[chilly barn]

ok , i got it , i was just hoping i can make my archer look like a big biffy plate armour warrior.. 😄

[obsidian patio]

but your options are much more slim

[meager herald]

does the road to 70 boost eurika exp aswell

[obsidian patio]

nope

[warped nest]

Yeah, like what Wynne said, there are archer gears with armor plating

Yes

[obsidian patio]

basically a metal bodysuit

[warped nest]

But nothing close to the bulk you'd expect from a tank

[obsidian patio]

full set picture

[warped nest]

I believe that the Kugane dungeon drop armored gears too

[obsidian patio]

nah, the arhat stuff has mostly cloth/leather

[warped nest]

Oh, I remember that incorrectly then

My bad

[chilly barn]

i will sort something out , i want to go for an english long bow look https://cdn.historycollection.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Untitled-3-2.jpg

[obsidian patio]

how the full set looks, minus the helm/visor

probably the closest you'll get to traditional-looking plate armor that's not possibly from the mogstation premium shop

[chilly barn]

yea , that is fine 😄 thank you

[leaden ginkgo]

if my resistance rank is high enough and if I'm leveling an alt job then should I be in the more recent part of Bozja to level up?

[obsidian patio]

yes

[leaden ginkgo]

ah, did not know that thanks Wynne

[obsidian patio]

The replica allagan set can be bought on the marketboard, should be fairly cheap to buy, like only 30-40k for a full set from my experience

[spiral mango]

is getting aether currents a make or break type of thing ?

[obsidian patio]

some job quests require flying in a few zones to complete

and some dungeon/raid quests will require it too

so for the most part it's basically mandatory or very highly suggested to get

[spiral mango]

dang...

[spiral mango]

that you cant get to by walking i presume ?

[obsidian patio]

yep

[spiral mango]

oof

[obsidian patio]

a famous example is Scholar's level 58 quest, and Bard's level 60 quest.

and others here and there

[deft pier]

Hii all. New to the game about to finish post arr on free trial. I was planning on doing extremes to check them out before moving on to hw. I got to do garuda, titan and ultima weapon after like an hour of queues for each in duty finder. Is it something not many people do as its old content? And should I be doing them from duty finder in the first place?

[spiral mango]

dungeon raid quests you mean the ones that unlock dungeons and raids ?

[obsidian patio]

extreme trials in general are rarely run in the duty finder due to their difficulty

most people nowadays run them unsync to remove the challenge, or look for discords to run them synced

[deft pier]

Oh

[obsidian patio]

like this discord for primal datacenter https://discord.gg/BmpW6C9

[deft pier]

Cool Ill check it out. Thanks

[peak garnet]

I've been in bozja for a week and I have no idea what is going on

Is this normal

[leaden ginkgo]

Does all expansions have post quests like arr?

[twilit arch]

yes

[lilac mason]

yeah

[twilit arch]

but they arent as long as post arr, quest number wise

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh ok

[twilit arch]

generally around 40 quests give or take

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks

[tight totem]

Hey guys, relatively new player here from a WoW background. A lot of Party Finder listings have "bring macro and waymark". Are they referring to a macro that automatically sets down the waymarkers at the beginning of the fight?

[faint flare]

Image macros

That shows positions for various mechanics

[obsidian patio]

macros usually referring to a giant text macro that shows mechanics in diagrams

[faint flare]

Using Ascii art for good

[obsidian patio]

and waymarks being someone having a saved set of waymarks for a fight to show spots for mechanics and such

so people can copy from them

[tight totem]

Do I need it in game? Or just like on a notepad doc on my second screen?

(the image macro)

[faint flare]

They just want SOMEONE in the group to have it

[obsidian patio]

you can copy the text and paste it into a notepad

[tight totem]

ahh right

[regal pawn]

it starts as rogue at lvl 1, yes

[knotty elk]

NIN unlocks at lvl30

[faint flare]

When you upgrade to your job your levels is kept

Cause the job IS the class

Just giving access to the rest of your kit

[tight totem]

And another question... when people say clock positions, I'm a healer so I take East or West. How do I know if i'm East or West? It seems like everyone else in the group knows their position without anything being said.

[agile laurel]

unsure how JP does it but US works by dibs

would need someone to actually weigh in and know

[tight totem]

ahhh okay

Yeah, I was playing on Primal before I transferred to JP.

[faint flare]

The image macros usually have clock positions with letters (H1. H2 etc)

And you call that letter

That's now your spot for every mechanic

[agile laurel]

ok so yeah, dibs

[faint flare]

In regards to the macro

[tight totem]

ahhh okay. that makes sense! Thanks!

[faint flare]

While NA loves the "gather around the waymark" method

[craggy tinsel]

censoring any specific names or mechanics, just in case

Is there a youtube channel and/or playlist of extreme trials without commentary? I want to show a boss fight (||Shinryu extreme||) to a friend of mine that doesn't play the game, but likes hearing about the fights... the only one I've found for that specific fight without commentary has some awkward camera angles and doesn't show off everything that is to be seen (||tidal wave or the icicles, for example||).

[devout lichen]

in mahjong is there any indicator that you are doing something right

[cursive ridge]

is there a separate animation set for garlean humans or are they the same as hyur?

[split dust]

Just unlocked bozja, so for the leveling i should do what? Do anything i see? Fates and critical eng.

[craggy tinsel]

both, yes

If you can, find a group farming for Bozjan Clusters - you need 25 to buy the riding map. You'll feel very slow until then.

[split dust]

where i buy those?

[craggy tinsel]

Resistance Quartermaster, when they're unlocked

Or did you mean the Clusters?

[split dust]

maps

[craggy tinsel]

ah, then yeah, the Resistance Quartermaster

They'll be in the base camp

[split dust]

thanks man

[craggy tinsel]

yup!

[drowsy hornet]

any good ways to spend gil on the free trial. I am getting close to the 300k cap

[craggy tinsel]

Probably dyes for glamour

or like... gear for other jobs

[drowsy hornet]

I can craft gear

[glossy flare]

short answer: no, there is no good way

stuff that would make sense to buy would involve the market board

which you don't have access to either on trial

[sacred oracle]

weapon for BLU doesnt matter right?

[drowsy hornet]

only of you attack with them, so no

[sacred oracle]

i c i c

thx

[vapid obsidian]

What is he doing standing by the Aetheryte everyday and still lvl 10 for like 2 months now?

[regal trellis]

is there a differnce between general purpoe dyes and there other versions

[boreal storm]

General purpose isn’t from the cash shop, and can be sold on MB

[leaden ginkgo]

If you suspect a bot, you should report to the office, not here

[devout lichen]

do you get exp from a dungeon roulette if you aren't actually inside the game

[vapid obsidian]

I'm just curious what he gains from doing that everyday

[boreal storm]

That’s not a bot, bot names are really obvious

[leaden ginkgo]

Yeah, if the dungeon run can be completed with 3 people without you being kicked out from the party (which is pretty unlikely)

really noob question here, do i have to wait for a level 30 MSQ before i grab the quest to pick my job (im wanting to pick white mage, i know where to grab the quest), or can i go get that quest as soon as im level 30?

[agile laurel]

former

[boreal storm]

Sylph management is lvl 20

[agile laurel]

the specific MSQ gates you from doing your job quest

[leaden ginkgo]

so a level 30 msq then? at the rate the game is shovelling xp my way, i'll be level 80 before i can do it

[agile laurel]

yes but you'll probably be 30 before even seeing it

the Sylph-management MSQ gates your job unlock

[boreal storm]

Lvl 20 msq

[agile laurel]

It is technically a level 20 msq

Technically

[leaden ginkgo]

Stop doing roulettes and just focus on completing your long list of msq

[leaden ginkgo]

i am doing msq's

[boreal storm]

And what lvl msq are you at?

[leaden ginkgo]

that's litearlly all i've been doing since last night, and i'm somehow on a level 19 msq at level 31

You level fast

[boreal storm]

Okay you’re almost there then

[leaden ginkgo]

Not surprising

[leaden ginkgo]

If you are only doing msq without any roulettes, you should be fine. The level progression gets slower at around 70+

i've only used the activity finder for relevant msq's

[leaden ginkgo]

ah ok

[boreal storm]

All msq are relevant? Also do your job quests

[leaden ginkgo]

oh that's good. am i not too far from the mount quest either?

[leaden ginkgo]

i meant to say i only did the activity finder (i know them as dungeons from ESO) when the quest forced me to

my bad

[glossy flare]

We still have dungeons here 🙂

All dungeons are duties, but not every duty is a dungeon

There are multiple types

[devout lichen]

which quest is the banquet cutscene

[leaden ginkgo]

oh that's cool 🙂

[glossy flare]

The Parting Glass

[devout lichen]

oh right, thanks

[spiral inlet]

what is the painfully ishgardian man

thing I just unlocked

unreal trials?

[boreal storm]

Old EXs but scaled to lvl 80

[leaden ginkgo]

There are things called unreal trials, but I would suggest that you go with easier extremes (titania, innocence) at first to understand how end game contents work.

[devout lichen]

leeching isn't reportable is it

[spiral inlet]

do they give like

good rewards?

[faint flare]

Not really but super dick move

[leaden ginkgo]

You get a mount, but you have to play the content every week for around 20+ weeks if I'm not overexaggerating.

[spiral inlet]

oh ok

so the mount

isn't limited

[heavy wadi]

it is reportable.

[devout lichen]

like, I queued for an msq roulette and guy instantly disappeared at the start

the chances of them being dc'd I feel are low because they could have relogged 12 times by now

[faint flare]

If they're question marks then they logged off

[spiral inlet]

??

is that

[faint flare]

It's a weekly

[spiral inlet]

delivery?

[faint flare]

No

[devout lichen]

aren't they also question marks if they dc'd

[faint flare]

Weekly nier thing

[spiral inlet]

is it like doma

_>

or completely different

[faint flare]

Yes...question marks mean they're not in game

It's a weekly thing that has an ending

In 6 weeks

Just finishes the story

[spiral inlet]

oh ok

thanks

Man I took my time finishing these quests

didn't think they were time locked

Lol

[devout lichen]

honestly, dont wanna report them in the off chance I was wrong and then I would get slapped because I reported for a wrong thing

[spiral inlet]

"was motivated" to finish nier

[faint flare]

They probably just choose to log off to avoid whatever duty you got

[dapper oyster]

wait, they are going to remove DoL HQ items later in endwalker right?

[faint flare]

HQ items for materials yes

[regal pawn]

only the gathering ones

Intermediary items can still be hq

So silver ore won't have HQ anymore
but silver ingot can still be HQ
(at least that's what i understand)

[tiny valve]

I just upgraded to a digital collector edition, do I just have to wait to receive in game rewards or I have something to do ?

[regal pawn]

Gotta wait a bit

Can be up to a day

[faint flare]

They'll be mailed to you like normal

Just wait

Make sure you got enough space in the mail and all

[dapper oyster]

so they are going to tweak DoL actions and class quest right?

[faint flare]

Yes

[tiny valve]

Okay thanks, since that can take time, I didn't want to wait and learn afterwards I had to activate something :c

[warped nest]

What sadlynn said is accurate

No more HQ from gathering or monster drops

But you can still craft HQ items

[dapper oyster]

ok better wait until endwalker then... this 20 HQ item turn in irks me lol

[oblique idol]

Hi, im new to this game and I am stuck on the quest Mountaintop Diplomacy. I have a crystal called Moghome, but from there i cannot walk to the quest. I cannot fly in this area with my mount. I looked on YouTube there is no guides

i cannot get there

[warped nest]

Walk a little bit south from the aetheryte then east into a cave

[oblique idol]

descent to the forelands?

[warped nest]

No

[oblique idol]

I went tehre before it goes to a different zone

[faint flare]

Not all the way

[warped nest]

You are too far soith

[warped nest]

That

[regal pawn]

There's a cave entrance

Also
before you ask

A later quest from that chain will ask you to go up

The ramp is on the far east side of the inside

[oblique idol]

I found it thank you both

[warped nest]

Tldr, there's no way to get stuck on msq

[regal pawn]

Yup

[warped nest]

They are designed assuming that you didn't bother to unlock flying

Can't say the same for optional stuffs

[regal pawn]

Actually
They are designed specifically for not flying

Cause you can't fly at that time

[oblique idol]

yeah I assumed so, I just couldnt find it i looked for a long time

[warped nest]

Yeah

[oblique idol]

to fly i need to do all the aether current sidequests and find the currents on the map too?

[warped nest]

Yes

[regal pawn]

As well ass complete the MSQ for the zone

One of the last MSQs before you leave the zone will have an Aether Current

[leaden ginkgo]

I didn't play the since last summer. My highest is lvl 75 mch/lvl 63 sam. Beside the expansion coming next month,what did I miss??

[jolly nebula]

Do I have to do all savages 1-8 to get eden savage 9?

[elfin berry]

Hello, at the moment i main a Lv51 Paladin
and i'd like to start playing some dps (BLM), since i already cleared my MSQ's
what would be recommened to do to rank the next job up fast?

[jolly nebula]

Normal 1-8 you mean right?

But thank you

[hot eagle]

clear e9-12n to unlock the quest for e9-12s

[jolly nebula]

I have to do all of 9-12 normal first?

Aaaaagh

[little swift]

Yes

[hot eagle]

yeah

[boreal storm]

Like 3 story patches, and all the stuff that those included

[little swift]

You can't just skip into unlocking savage when you haven't finished the normal
