In terms of most easily spammable, yes

So it’s basically an alt now

I appreciate the response but can you stay on point please
but first job don't get exp bonuses

this probably won't get answered but how long would 60-80 take dungeon spamming first job?

Any gear that can't go into the Armoire, I can safely sell/discard right?

Any gear that can't go into the Armoire, I can safely sell/discard right?
you can also turn it in for GC seals, desynth it for mats, leave it for retainer/alt jobs
or leave it for glamour
lethal mist
you can also turn it in for GC seals, desynth it for mats, leave it for retainer...
Ah yesh, but my concern was that I might not be able to "get it again" so to speak. I assume Armoire is for exactly those items, correct?
cursive ridge
not really
lethal mist
Leveling mutliple classes/jobs takes inventory space that i don't have
cursive ridge
pretty much everything in this game you can 'get again'
lethal mist

Yeah well I cba sorting through every item with a google search anytime I want to make space. Those very few, would they go into Armoire?

fringe silo
alrighty I will try those out, thank you very much for the help everyone!!
lethal mist
IIRC dungeons that are even numbered (50, 60, 70, 80) are worse for exp than the ones just below. Does that still hold true? (Cause first time around they didn't give exp and retroactively added exp is crap).
cursive ridge
yes
boreal storm
Cap dungeons give shit exp
cursive ridge
both the roulette and the in-dungeon xp for those is shit
lethal mist
How come the "Leveling 50/60/70" is a thing then and considered stil lgood. Just the actual bonus?
lethal mist
I merely meant when asking which of the roulettes are "best" top to bottom, leveling was hailed as one of them but since the 50/60/70 chooses "worse" dungeons I thought it was a bit conflicting but seen as how there's a bonus I guess it works out.
lethal mist
It doesn’t have cap dungeons in the pool
Oh never mind then
I thought all even leveled ones were cap ones
cursive ridge
leveling, msq, alliance raid, frontlines are the ones that give good XP
50/60/70 gives bad XP

what is observe even good for on crafters
or countering poor procs
cursive ridge
just do the free touch/synth when a poor procs instead, if it's not eating one of your "NEXT" buffs
it's going to consume a step for timed buffs, might as well get some benefit
and you still get an inner quiet stack even if you hasty touch during poor
so still okay
tropic summit
If I actually need to go out of my way to counter a Poor proc, it's because I'm at the end of a macro with Great Strides, about to hit Byregot
otherwise, yeah I'd just go for more inner quiet

When redoing this quest I can get those items again, right?
The gear I mean
lethal mist
Ah, the site only showed the quest as the only acquisition, not calamity (like many others) so I assumed it was like the lvl 30 leveling ring where you had to redo the quest itself
cursive ridge
hm
cursive ridge
i think i mistook them for the other gear, custom-something

Ah, well, as long as it's under "Acquisition" I reckon I can redo that particular quest, no?

does blue not have any aoe that doesn't lose potency and has no cooldown
cursive ridge
all spammable ones are 50% effective
lethal mist
Have saved a LOT of coffers and some don't say IL or anything, but for example "Torrent Attire of Scouting Coffer" which when I look it up is basically level 60 gear for ROG, NIN. It would be helpful if that was stated instead of having to go find gear once hitting a certain level using Poetics and whatnot... Gotta have to start sorting this shit hot damn so many coffers 😅
cursive ridge
the suffix is the clue there
lethal mist
Sure "Scouting" but I have only leveled a few characters. Not knowing every suffix is bad. Also doesn't tell me which level it's for tho.
cursive ridge
fending - tank, scouting - melee dex, aiming - ranged phys, casting - casters, healing - healers, maiming - drg
lethal mist
How would I, without googling, know it's level 60 gear and not 70 or something?
cursive ridge
it says on the ones from later expansions, but generally you would know it because you received it from an expansion where lvl 60 was the cap :)
lethal mist
What's even funnier; I have not leveled ROG or NIN, so why did I even get this back when? If I had opened it then I would get gear that's useless to me, no?
cursive ridge
it was a choice between multiple coffers
lethal mist
Ah, must've been on DRG, my first class. I was even more clueless back then
cursive ridge
it was a choice between fending/maiming/scouting/striking

for non-healer mimicry BLUs
it's better potency than BLU's regular AoE spells once you hit 4 targets
devout lichen
yeah I can't get that yet
well I guess I will just continue pressing thousand needles then
it's a bit hard at level 40
lethal mist
it's better potency than BLU's regular AoE spells once you hit 4 targets
Wait do "Hits for XXX potency then 50% for all other targets" not count as 50% for ALL others but scales down depending on number of targets?
cursive ridge
no
obsidian patio
some spells did do that but were adjusted long ago
cursive ridge
BLU's regular AoE spells are usually 220 potency, with 50% for AoE
so they do 110 potency, which is lower than stotram
obsidian patio
So a regular BLU AoE spell on 4 enemies would do 220+110+110+110
While Strotam would be 140+140+140+140

cursive ridge
you're using bad strategies
obsidian patio
Is the one who gets primary damage the one you target or the closest one?
if the spell is targeted, then the enemy you target gets the full damage.
if it doesn't require a target, then the enemy closest to you.

I even tried putting a gil reward :(
kind eagle
Ffxiv auto payment an hour ago can i refund cause i wont be playing?
obsidian patio
nope
lethal mist
Not saying it will magically work, but worth a shot. Also depends on time of day ofc. More players = higher chances. Or join an FC and ask there. It doesn't take long. For Solo I think people recommend FATEs.
obsidian patio
Also don't try to dispute the payment or SE will likely ban your account.
cursive ridge
FATEs for BLUs are only worth it if you're cheesing them with instant kill spells
devout lichen
fates give less exp than a single enemy
obsidian patio
that happened to a friend of mine :\

oh!
patent citrus
so you can do roulette like usual and buy the augmented cryptlurker with poetics
pulsar escarp
scaevan can pretty much take you to gulg with minimal change
spiral mango
hmm
pulsar escarp
so I guess it'll be similar for endwalker?
patent citrus
probably yeah, I'm just guessing tbh 😹 looking at previous expansions
pulsar escarp
stormblood was just an outlier
patent citrus
shire gear is also equal to shishui gear (lv 63 dungeon)
pulsar escarp
you start replacing past the -3 dungeon but bardam's mettle was just a climb
spiral mango
so you can do roulette like usual and buy the augmented cryptlurker with poetics
im soon finishing MSQ, either today or tommorow, so i doubt i will be using poetics for that gear
obsidian patio
yeah bardam's was a spike in stat for gear for whatever reason
spiral mango
ill prob be just farming revelations to upgrade my gear
patent citrus
yeah, join up the hunt, easy tomes for everyone
pulsar escarp
you probably won't be able to get full augmented cryptlurker before endwalker
patent citrus
just follow the train and enjoy the ride
pulsar escarp
uh, assuming you do other things
spiral mango
you probably won't be able to get full augmented cryptlurker before endwalker
why not
spiral mango
ah weekly
pulsar escarp
but also you presumably will do other things
spiral mango

patent citrus
not sure what happened to previous expansions however, did they ever lift the 900 tome cap before new expansion launch?
obsidian patio
nope
pulsar escarp

it stayed until the tomestone got phased out

and the nier raids for coins
patent citrus
yeh, if you finished MSQ you could jump for a bit of practice to get used to the raid environment
pulsar escarp
but it should be possible to get full cryptlurker so I reiterate my previous statement

I still see a couple of E9S practice to jump around in Light
spiral mango
yeh, if you finished MSQ you could jump for a bit of practice to get used to the...
yep thjats the plan
but i still need a few more quests to finish MSQ
pulsar escarp
oh then if you actually farm raids then you can get 530 faster
spiral mango
about... 20-30 ~ ?
spiral mango
anyone can tell me
whats the total amount of quests in ShB part 1 and 2 ? together
if some1 can open their journal and tell me
google said 51 but im not sure
pulsar escarp
106 in 5.0
spiral mango
true
pulsar escarp
you still have to do normal raids first to unlock savage
and it's recommended to try extremes before savage though e9s nowadays is very simple
spiral mango
ive been doing MSQ for 1 month 10+ hours a day, so at this point it has tired me quite a bit
pulsar escarp
if you've finished 5.3 you could go try the werlyt questline
spiral mango
not that the story is bad tho, the shb is by far the best content storywise, thus far
only ARR is as good as ShB
pulsar escarp
that's a take I've never heard before but valid. feeling tired is natural
spiral mango
i rushed it full blown 1 month and still im not done
either today or tommorow i should be done, though
pulsar escarp
you could try an extreme or two before going into raid and eventually savage
if you're past some MSQ trials you should be able to unlock the ex mode

is there a minimum spell speed that you have to reach to do the moon flute burst combo?
cause I haven't been getting it consistently tbh, like I can't do the last part of phantom flurry
the one that you can stop phantom flurry to do the big aoe thing
obsidian patio
I think some variations don't bother with the big hit and let the channel fully happen?
since it can be extremely tight
patent citrus
ahh that's why
storm sapphire
Yeah they just let the dot damage go off just as the moon flute ends to maximize damage
patent citrus
so you can just channel it till the end without doing the last part of phantom flurry?
ok ty ty

I think it snapshots the moonflute so it keeps doing the extra damage even after moonflute ends

So do I cound enochian at 15 and 3x. stacks at 80 so 95% more potency for each spell?

That's additive
flat basalt
Yes, but you said the buffs are multiplicative.
regal pawn
yes
flat basalt
So it's 92
regal pawn
1.8 x 1.15 = 2.07
faint flare
Basic Percentage maths people
steep egret
yeah, now that ive read the wiki pages
flat basalt
So basically enochian and 3x stack is double potency
steep egret
generally, you add the base damage as 100%, then put the buff on top, and multiply
zinc orbitBOT
regal pawn
so you do
1 x 1.8 x 1.15 = 2.07
steep egret
so base damage, times by 1.8 (80% increase for astral fire 3 stacks), then times 1.15 (15% Enochian)
1 x 1.8 x 1.15
yup
if it was additive
steep egret
youd be doing, 1+ 0.8+0.15, so 1.95, not 2.07
flat basalt
That means Fire4 is 600 potency and Despair is 760

Fair enough, but I do get the impression BLM has more slow but hard hitting spells, is this correct?
flat basalt
I really enjoy the samurais look and outfits.
But I enjoy BLM playstyle a lot more with being a turret.
Been having this discussion forever.
steep egret
an correction for myself
they are standardising the gear stats, so some classes will see potency go down or up to compensate, but damage will stay the same
in theory they maybe more easily comparable after EW releases, but that remains to be seen

Just to clarify as help: Opened does not mean the same thing as used.
So not used isn't enough, it also needs to be not opened. Which is what they track.
You opened it, even though it says so clearly that opening it will not refund you.
Revoking is an action they have to perform. It's more work. If they already gave you the gate and you just to go through it knowing the consequences you can't turn around and say it's scummy for not doing it your way.

So on bard i've messed with my UI and keybindings. I know there's ways to mess with shared hotbars and all that, but whenever i switch classes what is keybound to which hotbar remains the same. In this picture for example, on the lowest hotbar the 7th ability (what would be keybound to 7) is way up top for visual purposes, when i switch off of bard that keybind stays way up there.
Can i somehow adjust job to job where keybinds go?

If you "burned out" on MSQ, then you may have simply been going at it too seriously or too hard. Take your time, do side content, step away from the game for a bit if you're overdoing it. You don't have to get to the end of ShB before Endwalker releases. The content will still be there.

- These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
- These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
- These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
