High quality exarchic gets you into all current content

with gnb should you hold no mercy to always be used in the same spot in your 3 part combo? 1, 2, no mercy? or just use it on cd?
deft yarrow
not after 3rd?

That would put you back at the start of thr combo
You want at least 1 solid barrel under nm
deft yarrow
so if bloodfest is ready to use and you have 2 ammo you always have to wait till 2nd part of combo?

Nah
You just use NM on CD
Like if you have 2 ammo and no 123 combo, you use NM, then ammo boom, 123, ammo boom, boom

You don't delay no mercy
Unless encounter specific delay that doesn't lose you a use
But in normal play use it off cd

Hi guys, noob here but with 72 hrs in. Loving the game so far. I come from WoW, so I want to ask about the glamour system. I liked how WoW just keeps all the skins you unlocked just by picking up the item, but here you have to essentially "disenchant" your gear and store in a limited dresser. My question is, how do you decided what should be kept? I don't know whether to sell something, or keep it cause I may want it later. I love to collect things, so this idea I have to pick and choose is daunting.

Drifting depends on your gcd. If you're running 2.40 push your gnashing fang combo back one gcd every other time you use it and it'll stay in line with no mercy

yea I have 2.39

he's talking about danger zone
not gnashing fang/sonic break
it's not affected by sks that one
deft yarrow
my ping is 200 so double weaving is very iffy

that's what I'm doign
little swift
Gnashing > sonic (danger/bow) > Next gnashing gcd
deft yarrow
gnashing combo should come off cd at the same point after no mercy phase everytime right?
patent citrus
1 gcd sooner
little swift
It comes off cd earlier than 30s because its affected by skill speed
Same with sonic break
So you delay by one gcd every minute to realign it at 2.4
If you're at 2.5 this isn't a problem
But 2.5 has encounter alignment and greed issues

so i changed my isp yesterday and now act says that it can't access server data because of windows firewall
i pressed the button to make an exception and added the 2 exes myself but it still won't detect anything
do i need to reinstall the whole thing since i changed providers?

devout lichen
when does the lyrics version of ravana's theme play because I don't think I heard that one just fighting him normally
twilit arch
its phase 2, when he does his ultimate attack and basically breaks part of the arena walls
vernal urchin
These days people can blaze through ravana with item levels so you barely get to hear the phase 2 theme
heavy wadi
More often than not he's pretty much dead by the time phase 2 happens
devout lichen
yeah I noticed that, it's unfortunate

hasty musk
do i ask here if people could help me with a dungeon?
there isn't really a channel like that here, but chances are if your queue times are bad there's a reason for it

510 is roughly thr bare minimum you'll need...500 for the very minimum

ok guess ill do that but maybe ill buy the rings and necks and stuff cuz itll only cost me 150k and ill get a pretty good chunk of ilvl
faint flare
Accessories are the lowest priority
Weapons are the most important
And weapon ilvl counts double
warm lagoon
yeah but what im looking for is ilvl cuz i wanna enter the 2nd nier raid and complete that questline
but thanks for the info
warm lagoon
can i equip two of the exact same rings btw? left and right
faint flare
Only if they're not classed as unique
warm lagoon
so im guessing i cant equip two of these
warm lagoon
which means that they are bad gear or not?
faint flare
Which would be next to where it says BINDING
No
Iy doesn't
It just mens you can have multiple of it or not
Crafted gear is never unique
warm lagoon
so im guessing that this is a good investment
faint flare
Yes
warm lagoon
okay thanks
faint flare
Exarchic is what you use if you want to shortcut gear grinding
warm lagoon
i dont get any gear from post shadowbringers msq right?
faint flare
Nope
warm lagoon
yeah just wanted to make sure
faint flare
Not until endwalker comes
warm lagoon
thats why i started buying gear in the first place

What comes after a relic reborn quest?
"Up in arms" is still red to me so there must be something else

Are you using the job with the relic
boreal storm
And you made a PLD relic

Did you start the quest as a PLD?
loud fossil
I made drg relic only

did you equip it and talk to the up in arms guy as drg

Yep

or did you talk to the up in arms guy as paladin first
loud fossil
I think i did in the beginning
open coral
And that's why
patent citrus
don't think you can abandon the quest unless you talk to gerolt again
like it won't have the choice to abandon in the quest description
also if you take an ss of your journal, we can figure out if you abandoned the quest or not
upper cove
Seeking advice to 'optimize' my relic/exp gain. I'm current about 5x jobs on 71 yet to hit 80. And my goal by EW is to get all 80s, and churn out as many relics as I can. So far what I've been doing.
- skirmishes in BSF/Zadnor for exp
- BSF cluster/skirmish > CLL
- fate farm while queuing for DRN
is there anything more I could do/do better?
patent citrus
can' take 2 same quest at the same time
if you want to work on DRG and PLD at the same time, you need to progress to the next step as PLD first
loud fossil
Ahhh
upper cove
Zadnor is my ideal place for exp/mettle. Sadly apart from dal, nothing there contrinbutes to relic
And I don't wanna do too many dalriadas to prevent too many raw emotions over flow at the end of the day, since I definitely need to run many more DRNs

I might be missing something fundamental about rdm, but veraero says on its tooltip that it should give 11 white mana, but sometimes it only gives like 5?
faint flare
Cause your black mana is way too high
If the difference between your two gauges is 30 or more, the mana generation for the lower gauge is halved
Keep them close together

ohhh

Or you're punished

As long as the spell is cast, you can learn it
Yoy should get basically all the primal spells
They're your off global damage
Only leviathan is the only primal spell that isn't that great

But you need to learn 100 spells to get Mantra Magic
boreal storm
You get spell totems from the whalee after certain BLU achievements

im leveling blue mage for fun but also because it can be useful for farming fates
though so far it hasnt really impressed me with overwhelming power
what is it that makes it so good
undone warren
I hear people talk about how OP it is all the time, but I haven't tried it myself
minor fulcrum
It's a big fucking meme
hasty turtle
yea but its supposed to be legit the best at farming fates
minor fulcrum
Yes cause of that one spell that vacuums enemies in
hasty turtle
i assume i dont have the spells that allows for that yet
faint flare
With all it primal spells, it's burst is unmatched
And it had instant death spells for mobs that are susceptible to it
Like Ultravibration
outer mural
nightbloom, phantom flurry, suparnakha, matra magic, triple trident, etc
outer mural
moon flute combo BLU is comparatively the highest damage burst in the game at 70
faint flare
Or something stupidly high
hasty turtle
dont have any of those skills so i guess i just need to keep going
faint flare
Fully buffed final stings are stronger than limit breaks
hasty turtle
also, you never lose any spells for level sync right?
patent citrus
maybe you haven't aetherial mimicry yet 😹
hasty turtle
no i just got to 50
hasty turtle
following weskalber guide
boreal storm
Just get to 70, so you can get the busted stuff
hasty turtle
well, should i bother with doing as many challenges in the carnivale right now or should i just keep leveling and getting spells from the overworld mobs?
faint flare
I would keep levelling and getting overworld spells
You'll need a handful of them to clear some stages
patent citrus
well you don't need it, since the masked carvinal guide from the blue academy doesn't use OP spell
but it makes things convenient if you reach lv 70 first hehe
and it doesn't take long to max them if you do the quick method
hasty turtle
my friends are going through heavensward so i dont have anyone that can boost me to lvl cap
hasty turtle
im done with all expansions

if you don't trust stranger that much, you both can switch every 5-10 levels or something

Hey guys, outside of buying it on the market place can I get Approved Grade 2 Skybuilders' Hemp anywhere? I was reading I can find it in Lower La Noscea do I just need to take it to the guy in The Firmament or can I use that for the Grade 2 Skybuilders rope?

You certainly cannot find it in limsa
wanton pecan
I was looking in the Diadem but couldn't see it in any nodes

You should only be doing grade 4 anyway

Not really.
Character appearance is kind of personal preferences.
Just play around until you find a combination of features you like.

damn ok thanks

If you can remember your sliders and options that's the best bet
But no way to export it or anything

Do I need to get newborn soulstone for anima?
primal gull
That's the pneumite exchange, right? Yes, you need one each time you do a different anima weapon
jaunty compass
I done a few dungeons and born again anima hasn’t gone up at all
Had sword on when fight boss and left with it on
primal gull
Anima light only goes up from level 50 dungeons or any HW duties
so doing any other content will not grant light
patent citrus
Can do the A9S 20x with 3-8 people. That's a faster route
jaunty compass
No friends lol but I try get PF started
patent citrus
With 8 people. A9S will only take less than a min to clear
jaunty compass
I gotta beat final dungeon first to get A9
jaunty compass
Alternatively brayflox hard
Awesome sauce thank you
primal gull
With a full party the entire light step takes about 40-45 minutes in A9S
It's well worth unlocking for that
Brayflox Hard is way slower.
jaunty compass
I gotta beat the soul first
Tough soloing it
I absolutely would do A9S once I get soul done
ripe hound
I think Bozja gives Anima light?
jaunty compass
Thank you all for information

even if it did, A9S is still the better option, considering how often people form parties for A9S farm 😉

BSM/LTW/WVR/GSM are the main 4 since they make a majority of the crafting gear to gear yourself up

does endwalker preorder come with a subscription? or do i need to buy both if my sub ran out
twilit arch
expansions do not come with game time, so you'll have to also buy a sub
sick light
Alright so, I feel like this has been asked before but I am still new to MMO's and I don't want buy things by mistake.
So, right now, I am on trial, just got done with 2.0, and I am planning on staying on trial until I feel like I have made the most out of it. But I also don't want to miss the pre order bonuses for Endwalker.
If I were to buy Endwalker now, and activate it post launch, would I still get the bonuses?
twilit arch
pre-order codes will not be useable after nov 23, when the expac officially launchs
sick light
Oh, and I supposed I need to own the full game to activate them, right?
sick light
Well, guess I have a month and a half to make the most of my game, and then buy it.
If I read well, EW comes with Shadownbringers, right?
twilit arch
Yes
but you wont have access to it, until endwalker release when you can put in the full expansion code
so if you just buy starter edition, it'll be the same as trial but without trial limits

Yeah, guess that makes sense, still, got 2 expansions between the trial and the new one, so I'll be fine. Thanks!
