How do you get to the Goblet

I did the side quest but can’t find the ferry

[minor fulcrum]

You can access it from the main aetherite in uldah

[obsidian patio]

If you’re doing the quest that wants you to visit it, you need to use the entrance that’s south of where you got the quest

[leaden ginkgo]

Strange, I click the main aether in uldah but don’t see goblet

[patent citrus]

yeah you need to do the quest first

to access it

like any other residential district

for mist/goblet you don't access them by boat

[minor fulcrum]

Go to western thanalan

[patent citrus]

only shirogane and lavender are

[minor fulcrum]

Leave from the steps of nald and go a bit south, it's a gate

[quick reef]

Okay, how do I get "the navel hard"? It's not in my duty list

[quick reef]

Alright, ty

[thorny yoke]

hang on are the hard primals required for MSQ?

[obsidian patio]

Yes

[thorny yoke]

ic

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok, are all 60 wards on a single goblet map

Because I keep selecting the 31-60 portion yet can’t find anything past plot 30

[patent citrus]

31-60 is different layout

they are called southdivision

and there are only 24 wards

and each ward has 60 plots

[edgy quartz]

as someone who has not touched crafting at all in ffxiv is there a good place to go for guides or such for quickly levelling each of the professions?

[patent citrus]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1TKBPwAl1JFLXe2v3Po4CydMYF1wqViOmMzWh06HSNyo/edit#heading=h.sir7lkoncptw
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vgtU7HFtG87TrJ9U47vnzkFMhSl5HKz7bjJhRXbxaas/edit

these 2 guides, depends on your method

[edgy quartz]

whatever is easiest/quickest

thanks for those

[spiral inlet]

BLM melds?

Crit > spell speed?

[leaden ginkgo]

For protean crystals in pagos, is there a specific mob I’m supposed to farm?

[leaden ginkgo]

Doesn’t matter, both yield almost the same results

It’s all a matter of preference

Like big hits? Take crit. Want to dish out more total spells in a fight? Go spell speed

[heady igloo]

Ran into a situation where a DC person was dismissed but his name never left the party list and indicated as online but not there? We pulled the boss during that assuming it was bugged but when we all wiped we weren't able to leave/vote abandon. Is there a solution to this

[leaden ginkgo]

My philosophy is the more spells cast, the more overall dps so personally, I’d go with spell speed for BLM

[warped nest]

Spell speed is just comfier tbh

[leaden ginkgo]

Like with Spell Speed, you’re getting more shots in.

Crits might or might not happen based upon modifiers

And if you dump SS for crit only for RNGesus to fuck you over, you’re giving up on a lot of dps

Then again a Critting BLM hits harder than Sam so…

[mossy tartan]

I usually get 2 crits in my fire phase, all the more better if it’s on despair/xeno. If those 2 crit? You’ll be glad you melded it
Crit chance and crit damage are both increased the more you add said matera , so I don’t think we’re losing at all compared to SpS

[leaden ginkgo]

Also why do people ignore me in parties? Aren’t we supposed to chat and meet new people ☠️

[mossy tartan]

Well, you know how unsocial some people can be. Or there’s a language barrier

[craggy tinsel]

How should I allot the points for my paladin relic sword and shield? I'm finishing up the step with the timeworn artifacts. My stat choices are Tenacity, Critical Hit, Determination and Skill Speed for both items

[leaden ginkgo]

Idk hpw people char

[jade moat]

Barely 20 quests from finishing HW base story, yay! Sorry, had to share this somewhere

[honest egret]

We have the beginners lounge

[leaden ginkgo]

And wholesome

[jade moat]

Yeah, I know, sorry again, I just always have this channel on hand, since I have too many questions usually

[leaden ginkgo]

Which expansion relic is that? If it’s anything other than SHB’s relic, the stat choice doesn’t matter since you’re only getting it for the looks (glamour)

[craggy tinsel]

it's ShB

[patent citrus]

max crit,det > res sks if you aren't wearing BiS

if you know how to math your sks, crit > sks to tier > det

[craggy tinsel]

oki, thanks

[obsidian peak]

Can I delete my character and start again with the free trial ? I started playing a couple months ago with the PS4/controller, but didn’t even reach the Companies mission because life. I’m starting to play again with keyboard and mouse, but find myself extremely lost. Would it be possible to delete my character and use the same email and character name for a fresh new character ?

[patent citrus]

lost in what?

on what to do?

!faq msqtracker

[zinc orbit]

MSQ Tracker image guide

1. Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.

2. An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.

By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.

Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/4dgmnpH.jpg

[patent citrus]

these 2 are the most important, continue them if you ever get lost

[wispy basalt]

is 560 the next cap item level for endwalker ?

[patent citrus]

do the blue + quest, they are important as well but not as important as the quests that listed on the tracker

[opaque fiber]

Is there a quick way to check if I have any of the welskin attire pieces?

[patent citrus]

type /sea welskin

[opaque fiber]

ty

Oh wait, that's player search no?

[craggy tinsel]

/isearch welskin

[patent citrus]

oh you are right, it's isearch

[craggy tinsel]

though that wouldn't show if it's in a glamour chest, just if it's an item in your saddlebag, inventory or a retainer

[opaque fiber]

It searches for the attire. When I try to use the attire it says I can't have more than 1 unique item

[craggy tinsel]

560 is looking more like "the new 430" - I assume the 560 was the level 90 job gear we saw players use from the media tour.

[wispy basalt]

is the current item level not worth farming for then ?

[craggy tinsel]

Don't stress over trying to minmax

[wispy basalt]

i just reached 530

just incase

[patent citrus]

if you don't think it's worthed, you don't need to farm it

[opaque fiber]

Anyone knows how to search where's the welskin piece I already have?

[wispy basalt]

my content is farming. but i dont want to waste time since ew will give us huge boost

[leaden ginkgo]

can anyone give me a screenshot from mediatour removing belts inside character gear

[leaden ginkgo]

thanks

[broken fable]

If I spend mettle, my resistance rank doesn't go down right?

[craggy tinsel]

correct

[broken fable]

Neat. Ty

[obsidian patio]

You also gain more mettle from doing stuff when you rank up

So you always want to rank up ASAP

[simple violet]

have they announced if Ishgard restoration will disappear with Endwalker?
Im worried I wont be able to collect all of the mounts in time.

[cursive ridge]

here to stay permanently

they handwaive it away by saying 'we still need materials for maintenance of the district'

[pure pecan]

i have ffxiv on my pc, but if i wanna get it on my mac too, do i just download the installer and log in or is it a separate purchase?

if so, i cant find the link for a mac launcher download

[simple violet]

nice

[lone totem]

pretty sure the mac license and the pc license are separated

meaning you will need to purchase a mac license to begin playing FFXIV

[pure pecan]

but thats not a sub right? just a one time purchase

[lone totem]

it's a one time buy, yes

purchasing the game for a new client (PS4, PS5, PC, Mac) and then linking it your FFXIV account will let you play it on that client'

with that account, so you only pay for that account

keep in mind: you cannot login to multiple at once

[pure pecan]

ah, so ill have to basically buy the expansions again for mac?

[lone totem]

even with different characters

and yes, you would need to purchase the expansions

that screenshot above is from my own: I got the game for pc just to have it since it was on sale

but as you can see I only have access to all the expansions on ps

[patent citrus]

not really one time purchase

next expansion you gotta buy for other platform as well

[pure pecan]

yeah

well ill just stick with the game on my windows then lol

[patent citrus]

ah ok

[lone totem]

well, im talking about the platform license

and yeah nothing wrong with just playing on one platform

[pure pecan]

i got a macbook so i was wondering if i could just play it on the go too

[grand pecan]

nobody doing dungeons?

[lone totem]

I'm sure there are

[craggy tinsel]

you're presumably playing dps

which is most of the problem

lol

[grand pecan]

well im on ultimate weapon soo i need help

yeah im a black mage

[patent citrus]

it's 7 am in EU 😹

but praetorium is very popular dungeon, just wait I reckon

also

[lone totem]

castrum meridianum?

[patent citrus]

enable all 4 (JEDF) and Tick Join party in Progress

[grand pecan]

thats what i am doing

[cursive ridge]

i wonder, is 'join party in progress' auto-checked for mentor roulette?

[lone totem]

joining a party in progress is always an option

you never have to join one in progress, for any roulette

[cursive ridge]

you'd think parties in progress are the ones in need of mentoring the most

[patent citrus]

join party in progress is pretty nice, sometimes people have to leave in the middle of praetorium/castrum

and you just join to finish up

[cursive ridge]

that's a really good point for msq roulette

[patent citrus]

frontline is also good, cause people who just join to get carried will leave if their team isn't doing well

you just join, turn things around and everyone's happy

[cursive ridge]

does the 'in progress' selector remember that you ticked it? or do you have to check it every time, like undersized

[patent citrus]

always there

ohhh undersized turn off by default?

never knew

[cursive ridge]

if you relog i think

[patent citrus]

but for join party in progress it's always there

[cursive ridge]

i'd probably leave it off for leveling roulette though

as if somebody ragequit a leveling dungeon, stuff probably isn't good

[patent citrus]

no need to worry that much

they are easy content

you probably will contribute much better than the previous player

I joined various wod, hw/sb AR party in progress

[cursive ridge]

you say that but i had an aurum vale run i had to quit because healer couldn't keep anybody including themselves up on first boss, with people eating fruits

[patent citrus]

they just need time

[honest egret]

So I just have to farm daily duty main scenario to lvl up

[cursive ridge]

daily msq, leveling, alliance raid, frontlines

ez xp

[true vault]

I just wish leveling wasn't so boring sometimes

[grand pecan]

0 parties recruting

thats what i have for praetorium

[sleek needle]

That's just for party finder

It wonr show as recruiting if they just queues in duty finder

[jade moat]

What's the best way to gain XP when I already did all my roulettes? Is it dungeon spamming?

[patent citrus]

yeah, unlock all optional leveling dungeon

and do the highest leveling dungeon you can access

[jade moat]

Thanks! I'm stuck with the Aery for now

[ripe hound]

I have a weird habit, I like to change my retainer jobs every so often

Like, there is no benefit for doing so, and it cost a lot of time to re level them

[patent citrus]

well if you enjoy it, why not

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I guess in practice it doesn't actually cost a lot of resource?\

[patent citrus]

like you can play with their glamour

[ripe hound]

Plus I don't think my retainer have brought back anything valuable for a very long while

Yeah I think I want to fantasia my first retainer into a Bunny Boy Sage

[jade moat]

I'm starting to fret that 3 jobs won't be enough to finish HW without EXP loss on my trial account

[ripe hound]

Also how does jobs for retainer work again?

I think I level a class to lv 30

Then I can change into any job?

[patent citrus]

yeah

archer -> gunbreaker

any

[honest anvil]

past a certain point you’ll spend more time lv job to catch up with the msq level .. it’s not worth it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[ripe hound]

Is Archer -> Monk possible?

Or only the new jobs?

[patent citrus]

all

[jade moat]

@honest anvil Yeah, I'm starting to feel that fact on my Black Mage, can barely keep it relevant to MSQ level

You may have a point

[honest anvil]

i know cause i tried doing the same thing :>

but knowing what i know bout leveling now, all that was not necessary…

[cursive ridge]

i just bought the expansion the moment i hit lvl 60 because anything else would be wildly inefficient and i aint about that

[jade moat]

Thanks for the idea, then I'll stick with my main 2 jobs! Gods, I love this channel and all you people

@cursive ridge I'm trying to max out the free content before subscribing, I don't have too much money yet, I'm still waiting for debts to be paid, haha

[patent citrus]

take your time if you are currently having a difficulty

[shut panther]

Wasted exp is not really worth being concerned about honestly

[cursive ridge]

i don't know how i would play the game without retainers and with a 300k gil cap

[jade moat]

'Tis not easy sometimes, but it's manageable if you have still to find your interests and buying stupid sh!t all the time.

I mean buying in game, because of the gil cap, of course

[grand pecan]

yeah i dont think anyone is doing dungeons

[sleek needle]

?

Ofc people are doing dungeons

Even if it is work-time

[patent citrus]

it's really early in EU though

[sleek needle]

Yea most will be working, possibly sleeping

[patent citrus]

just make sure you enable these settings, and all you can do is to wait

[sleek needle]

Not that early tho

Ohhhh something like this exist

Tyy

[gray crescent]

Hello, im level 26 at pagos, but gerolt wont hand me the kettle? any help?

[river vortex]

Does xenoglossy replace foul for single target?

[honest anvil]

what does gerolt say?

[honest anvil]

yes

[modest igloo]

gotta finish the anemos relic

[barren granite]

what daggers are these ?

[honest anvil]

mortal moogle mogknives

[barren granite]

that a recipe ?

[honest anvil]

yes

[cursive ridge]

judging by the name, drop from king moggle extreme

the craft versions have no shiny fx iirc

[honest anvil]

drops from the ex trial have no shiny glowy effect

the crafted ones do

[cursive ridge]

huh, i thought it was the other way aroudn

ah, yeah, crafted ones are 95 and drop are 75

and it makes sense i guess since you have to desynth a bunch of dropped ones to get mats for the crafted ones

[boreal storm]

or buy it off MB

[barren granite]

i thought he just dropped the ribbons neck peice

[boreal storm]

Oh wait mog weapons are weird I forgot

[patent citrus]

ooo it's different from other ex weapon?

[honest anvil]

gotta do the hard version

[patent citrus]

can't just desynth ex stuff and craft the weapon normally?

[honest anvil]

to get weapon loots to desynth

[patent citrus]

oh, just hard

thoguht you need ex for these type of thing

[honest anvil]

arr janks

[barren granite]

ya hard then, thanks

[boreal storm]

He does have a mat drop, so I’m not totally wrong

[cursive ridge]

yeah kingly whisker required for craft

both versions are probably soloable by 80 though

[patent citrus]

so it's the same with all other ex weapon? 🤔

what's the weird part then?

[undone warren]

For Crafters is Byregot's Blessing affected by Innovation?

[boreal storm]

the demimog thing

[barren granite]

yes they are extreemely soloable

[cursive ridge]

oh yes

byregot's blessing is affected by everything

[honest anvil]

mog weapons need 2 mog materials

[patent citrus]

oh those drops from hard, ic ic

[honest anvil]

kingly whisker and demimog materia

demimog materia doesnt drop .. you gotta desynth

[boreal storm]

Unlike every other trial weapon which just has the 1 main thing

[obsidian patio]

EX is faster to farm if you’re BLU due to one-shot, as a tip 😄

[cursive ridge]

king mog is not immune to death effects?

[obsidian patio]

Not death effects

A super buffed final sting

[boreal storm]

He is, you just do big number and he dies

[cursive ridge]

ah yeah

[honest anvil]

oh you can desynth the ribbons for mogmateria too?

[modest igloo]

ye

i sold 3 of mine for over 100k last night

[cursive ridge]

gamerescape has desynth tables

[boreal storm]

Mogtana

[honest anvil]

is that a recent addition? cause i dont recall that being the case some time ago

[cursive ridge]

no idea

it's on the item page https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Demimog_Demimateria

[modest igloo]

desynth has been around for a while

5.5 fixed some of the issues of some drops just not giving mats tho lmao

[true vault]

Does anyone recommend anything to make leveling bearable? Since I know I don't need to get every class to 80 before EW but my completionist side of me comes out, but I also lose interest in things really quick for some reason.

[honest anvil]

ye that 5.5 thing is what i meant

[boreal storm]

Switch up what you’re doing, pace yourself

[honest anvil]

i desynthed 50 tsukoyomi weapons beforehand T_T

[cursive ridge]

leveling old content is going to be faster in EW

no concrete details but they said that they're going to speed it up

[true vault]

Sorry for asking this but kinda dumb and how would you pace yourself? Since I don't also know what to switch leveling up with

[worn flume]

they mentioned closing the gap between expansion levels (ie 70-71), which'll definitely help

[languid furnace]

Hey what does manually adjust visor mean

[modest igloo]

move things like sunglasses up or down

practice

It's a buff, same as Lance charge, you'll eventually extend your combo and the new moves will refresh it

Yeah, the first two extending moves are having their way with me currently, especially the one after Chaos Thrust

I think it's in quarrymill?

[warm snow]

Ones a flank positional, ones a rear positional. I don't really see the problem

If you're doing your combo you shouldnt be losing blood of the dragon

Chaos thrust is a back posi
And so is the one after it

Full thrust is no posi
But the one after is flank

well there's no DG

so maybe i can speed run it

[modest igloo]

yeah theres just 1 solo instance

[pallid walrus]

alright then

[modest igloo]

just skim through it and remember names

[cursive ridge]

that looks outdated, raiden thrust is a lvl 76 skill, not 64

[pallid walrus]

got it

[obsidian patio]

The flow is still accurate, they just didn’t want to make the exact same order for when you do get raiden thrust

[cursive ridge]

fair, just looked weird to me since my DRG still doesn't have raiden thrust :)

[toxic sorrel]

sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but does yoshi p understand english but just cant speak it? cause in all the interviews the questions dont get translated

[outer mural]

this is accurate, it's just that raiden thrust is there since it will be what you optimally go for

64 - 80 is the same

regardless if you can proc raiden or not

[cursive ridge]

the questions do get translated, the editors just edit them out

[toxic sorrel]

OHHH

ty lmao

[cursive ridge]

he understands some english but not very fluent in it

[worn flume]

yeah, some of the interviews do include aimi's japanese translations

[cursive ridge]

i have a question

why does some people's map looks like this

when they open it

as in, it opens in the continent mode

rather than the zone mode

[outer mural]

it will just appear like that if you look at a map for zone you 're not in

Need to progress bozja

And finish both castrum lacus litore

And delubrum reginae

[leaden ginkgo]

im done with both

i need the 515 which comes after the farm castrum 3x

[regal pawn]

Talk to Zlatan for the quest then

Innit

[leaden ginkgo]

yeah that's the problem... it's not showing up

[green grail]

thats the menu for replaying completed quests

so you're looking in the wrong place

should just be a blue quest in the area

[leaden ginkgo]

im confused because it has to come from zlatan in gangos

is he in other areas

[regal pawn]

Do you already have the quest?

Check journal like 5 times

[leaden ginkgo]

ah shit

im dumb

ahh

[regal pawn]

Also do In the queen's image

If you haven't yet

[leaden ginkgo]

i was looking at the wrong quest

it should be gerolt

is there any guide for submarine/airship?

[earnest fiber]

How can I sell stuff on market board

[leaden ginkgo]

You use a retainer

[earnest fiber]

Oh ok thanks

[silk stone]

I would like to know can you wear a helmet with the heavy iron armor cause it seems the helmet comes included.

[cursive ridge]

if the armor piece says 'cannot equip gear to head' then you cannot

[silk stone]

ok

[leaden ginkgo]

what fasion 80 points today? 🙂

[honest anvil]

Kaiyoko hasn't released that yet

[leaden ginkgo]

Is it better to do PoTD to lvl 50 or do dungeon

[modest igloo]

almost always dungeons

potd is for when dps queues get above like 18 mins

[leaden ginkgo]

Do I do highest dungeon I can

[modest igloo]

yeah

save lvl cap dungeons

[leaden ginkgo]

What is lvl cap dungeon

[modest igloo]

lvl 50 60 70 and 80

[leaden ginkgo]

and also does the same apply to HoH?

[modest igloo]

yeah

lvl cap refers to old dungeons that give little exp but give poetics instead

so the cap of ARR is lvl 50, cap of HW is 60, and so on

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks bro

[regal pawn]

Highest level dungeon that's not 50 60 70 80 if you're tank/healer
DPS have better queues in potd and hoh

And remember to do your daily roulettes

[modest igloo]

honestly i found potd gave me not nearly as much as dungeons

also squadrons make potd more irrelevent

[regal pawn]

Yes
But also eh

Squadron you gotta deal with janky ai
And you can do potd pretty fast

[leaden ginkgo]

So if im level dps is it faster potd or dungeon im confused

Who's Yuyuhase's Japanese VA? Can't find any info online.

[honest anvil]

Jouji Nakata is what i got from a speculation on google

[hasty turtle]

looks like nascent flash is getting changed

should be better for tanking bosses but you won't be unkillable in trash pulls anymore

did i get this right or will it cure based on enemies hit rather than skill use?

[modest igloo]

most likely the first

but it could be changed

5.0 nascent flash was not like the current one

[hasty turtle]

it doesnt sound bad tbh

[wet yew]

How do I change the state that my retainers are selling things? One of them already has the list empty

[wet yew]

Do I need to click something there? It opens the menu but still shows Gridania at the bottom

[regal pawn]

You can change where your retainers are stationed through teh retainer vocate
But that's mainly for Tax purposes

Once you click that

Right click an item you want to put on the market
"Put up for sale"

[wet yew]

Oh okay, I thought that it was once the list was empty, you just need to start selling things in another place, not that you needed the retainer vocate

Thanks!

[regal pawn]

Your retainer will always be in gridania until you taalk to the vocate

you can put items up for sale wherever

[wet yew]

I'll keep it in mind, I was thinking to change at least one to Limsa since I think is the default place people goes to check the market

[cursive steeple]

Any class max level wll do ?

[regal pawn]

Paladin/Warrior are best

Due to self healing

[tropic summit]

Can't speak for all classes but I used RDM and PLD

[agile laurel]

that's not how it works. Market Boards are shared everywhere

[regal pawn]

To be fair

[agile laurel]

Location for retainer simply affects tax

[regal pawn]

Putting htem in limsa does make it a bit better cuz tax

Some people do take that into account when buying items that are similarly priced

[wet yew]

Exactly, for items that are only one gil lower, taxes can make the difference

[agile laurel]

Retainer location means that when someone purchases your item from the same location as your retainer is dispatched, the tax is less

Most people won't even look as far as giving a damn, even less people actually know this

[tropic summit]

oh right yeah, WAR's good too

[barren granite]

ya i thought tax was same across the board

[fresh lodge]

I believe that was removed iirc

Retainer location affects how much tax you pay on items sold, each city has a different tax rate

Level 31 botanist, item level 26, why cant i access level 20 levequests, this is getting really frustrating

[autumn drift]

If anyone can please help me with this, nothing I search gives me answers

[sleek needle]

The npc doesn't give you any quests or what is happening? Did you unlock that region's leves with the DoW/DoM first?

[cursive steeple]

Anyone ever soloed as Smn for heavenward Trials for birds ??

[green grail]

if someone has its probably gonna be on youtube

[neat hazel]

can we change the mouse cursor colour?

[fleet vale]

is there a way to track how many hours I played FFXIV? I am not playing the steam version

[autumn drift]

Yeah i unlocked it with DoW, but when i switch to botanist, all he says is, "You're too weak to navigate this area, the monsters are too strong" something along those lines

[sleek needle]

/playtime for the time spent in game, don't know for tracking how long you've owned it

[fleet vale]

Thanks

[sleek needle]

That's strange 🤔 sorry, don't know either then. Do you have another leve from the place in quests? So that it might be trying to enter that or something?

[mild mountain]

One of my characters has +100% exp bonus all the time while the others dont. Why?

[sleek needle]

Armory bonus, exp gear?

[cursive ridge]

if by 'character' you mean 'job/class', then combat jobs that are lower level than your current maximum combat job level get a +100% xp bonus

[olive prawn]

So I got a new profession carpenter when will he be able to craft firmament items?

[cursive ridge]

Does the character have that buff?

[cursive ridge]

provided of course you have access to the firmament

[sleek needle]

Oh didn't see they said character, if they did indeed mean character might be preferred server boost

[sleek needle]

Lv 20

[olive prawn]

Ty all

[leaden ginkgo]

how do i unlock synthesis?

[cursive ridge]

open your crafting log

select what you want to synthesize

click the button in the lower right

[leaden ginkgo]

nvm

i mean

Some ability

isnt unlocked even when max out jobs

for crafting

how to unlock those?

[sleek needle]

Do job quests

[cursive ridge]

some abilities are locked behind job quests

[sleek needle]

Same as for every other job

[leaden ginkgo]

oh was job quest

okok

i was doing leves quest

lol

[sleek needle]

😂

Quicklauncher isn't available for free trial right? 🤔

[fleet vale]

It says played for 19 days.. there is no way that is accurate I have been playing since ARR launch with the same character all the way up to stormblood then quit and recently came back 4 months ago

[cursive ridge]

why wouldn't it be? a free trial is a game account like any other

[sleek needle]

Might've gotten reset at some point then

[hallow wolf]

Is there a difference from the Warrior relic armor from quest rewards and the armor coffer’s?

[sleek needle]

Figured it wouldn't as it's restricted patch, I dunno 🤷

[cursive ridge]

free trial uses the same patch as the base game

the game doesn't update when you switch from free trial to base, it just removes limits server-side

it only updates when you activate expansions

[modest igloo]

Yes, ilvl 90 from the coffee, 45 from the quest

[hallow wolf]

Sheesh that’s a jump

[cursive ridge]

ilvl 90 coffer was added so players wouldn't have to grind level 50 gear to proceed with the MSQ

[regal pawn]

it is

[cursive ridge]

it's still a good idea to get ilvl 130 augmented ironworks gear though

[west elbow]

does anyone by any chance know the EU number for FF14 / SE support? I tried looking into it and going via the support ticket but I can't tell whether it'll end up being a premium number which I'd have to pay for

[heady knot]

lvl fisher seems like gonna easier the. btn or miner

phewww my last gatherer ro lvl

[olive prawn]

How do you guys handle all the crafting mats you get in the firmament ?

[sleek needle]

Enjoy

[cursive ridge]

leveling all gatherers is fairly trivial

[olive prawn]

Do you just put them on your retainer?

[mild mountain]

Yeah he did. But how are my other characters below 70 not getting this buff?

[sleek needle]

Run around with a full inventory

[cursive ridge]

i imagine you don't just collect everything and only go for stuff you know you want to use for crafting

or you go and sell the stuff

[sleek needle]

It's only for preferred servers

[mild mountain]

So i have to enter the most preferred servers? What servers do ppl prefer then?

[agile laurel]

Preferred is a term

servers are marked as Preferred by the game

[cursive ridge]

you have to create a character when it has the "Preferred" status set by the developers

on that server

[leaden ginkgo]

so i will need to do jobs quest with all crafting jobs?

[cursive ridge]

yes

[leaden ginkgo]

damn it

lol

atleast achivement i guess

[sleek needle]

!faq worldtype

[zinc orbit]

Types of Worlds

Standard: This World has an average amount of players. Standard Worlds have no bonuses or long-term restrictions active.

Preferred: This World has a lower than average amount of players. Marked with a star, Preferred Worlds grant new characters a +100% experience boost for every class to level 70 for at least 90 days, 10 Silver Chocobo Feathers to spend on gear at the Calamity Salvager, and a one-time deal of 15 days of free subscription for hitting level 30.

Congested: This World has an overabundance of players. Congested Worlds are completely locked off from new characters and Home World transfers.

New: This World has been recently added to the game and has a low amount of players. Along with the incentives that Preferred Worlds have, New Worlds will also give players who hit level 30 one million Gil once per datacenter. Home World Transfers to New Worlds are free of charge.

Legacy: This World has existed since 1.0. Legacy Worlds have no bonus of their own and can be Standard/Preferred/Congested.

[mild mountain]

Sorry for asking too many questions how do i do world transfer?

That exp bonus will surely greatly assist me in lvling

[cursive ridge]

it is only for newly created characters

[sleek needle]

It costs real money, like 18 dollars I think?

[mild mountain]

Oh..

[sleek needle]

You only need 1 character tho, you can do all the classes on it

And all the content

[mild mountain]

That 18 dollar is very expensive in my country. Ill just create another on preferred server

[mild mountain]

I love many races and genders glamour so i create multiple xD

[sleek needle]

[mild mountain]

Also it would be weird to see lets say... A bulky guy using healer. Just like lalafells tanking

[lyric rapids]

why did i get only 71 points in the fashion report although i followed the "easy 100 points" section in the fashion report guide for this week?

[sleek needle]

That's fine, just don't exhaust yourself

[cursive ridge]

equip all slots

you have no belt

[sleek needle]

Might not have updated yet?

[lyric rapids]

in here it says equip all slots except waist and off hand

[sleek needle]

A player makes the sheets and shares

Yea that's same as last week

[cursive ridge]

and this is for last week

[sleek needle]

So he didn't add a new one yet

[hallow wolf]

that’s the best part

[lyric rapids]

oh ok i see

[hallow wolf]

But yeah you always have Fantasias as well. They also cost money but it’s much less time consuming at least instead of making multiple characters

At least with the systems that encourage prolonged play in effect here. Still doable, but trudging through MSQs with alt’s can be... something

[opaque fiber]

I try to open the welskin attire coffer but it says "You cannot carry more than one unique item of the same type.". I dont find any welskin gear piece in my inventory

you probably already have the belt

whats the middle bar mean?

[hot eagle]

rested exp

[warped nest]

!faq restedexp

[zinc orbit]

Rested Experience FAQ

'Why does my EXP bar have some blue or faded yellow in it?'

That's Rested Experience, which is an extra source of bonus experience shared between all of your classes. You gradually earn this while inside a sanctuary (town or area with a major aetheryte), regardless of whether you're online or not. Sanctuaries are also indicated with a crescent moon icon near your experience bar.

'How much of a boost is it?'

The most amount of rested experience you can have at once is one and a half levels of experience. That means that lower level jobs use up the rested experience faster than higher level jobs do.

[hallow wolf]

Is there a general consensus on which Paladin shield type to go for, small or large?

Block Strength vs Block Rate that is

Or does it just not really matter

[warped nest]

Doesn't matter

[green grail]

just go for itemlevel then strength

[glossy flare]

both of those stats equalize later anyway

[cursive ridge]

are there even actual choices within the same item level?

i thought there's only one weapon per ilvl per type

ignoring relics i guess

[shut panther]

There's usually choices

Of substats

[leaden ginkgo]

hi so i got a new PC, and none of my gear sets saved.... how do i move those from one pc to another? http://puu.sh/Iiucd/82c6de9ffd.png

[shut panther]

Which is why bis is generally a combination of tome and raid drops

[cursive ridge]

there's a data folder in your My Documents

copy that over

[leaden ginkgo]

ok thank you

[cursive ridge]

C:\Users(your username)\Documents\my games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn

[leaden ginkgo]

oki thank you ^_^

[shut panther]

In the case of weapons there's usually only the (current edenmorn) equivalent for bis, relic aside, but there's generally options at other ilvls

Like there's a 520 tome weapon and 520 crafted

[cursive ridge]

yeah i'm looking through this atm https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Level_80_Gear_Guide

a lot of the times one is green other is blue

but there are some that are both blue

blue gear has more stats per item level than green, right?

[shut panther]

No difference

[cursive ridge]

so it's white < pink < green = blue ?

[shut panther]

At max level colour doesn't mean anything

After 60 actually I think that's true

As long as the white is hq

[cursive ridge]

i think you're wrong, blue has more stats than green of the same item level

[shut panther]

Is that the hq version?

[cursive ridge]

good point

[shut panther]

I should say, assuming HQ.

[cursive ridge]

yeah, green HQ seems = blue

[shut panther]

Non hq gear after 60 is basically a failed craft.

[cursive ridge]

the leveling dungeon drops are also always NQ

[shut panther]

They're not craftable items

[cursive ridge]

still green

[shut panther]

Yeah

[gray crescent]

whats the best dungeon to q for second chance points?

[shut panther]

But they'll have the hq starts

Stats

Basically it makes more sense to consider crafted gear as "normal and bad" rather than normal and hq

[gray crescent]

whats the best dungeon to q for second chance points? for wondrous tails?

[cursive ridge]

intriguing, dungeon drops are in fact equal to blues of the same item level

it's a bit strange that the same color means different things

[upper cove]

@gray crescent id say alliance raids

[cursive ridge]

i was holding off upgrading those for small item levels because i thought blues were inherently better

shows me i guess

[warped nest]

Colors are just relative rarity

It is not definitive indication of whether a gear is crafted or not

[shut panther]

19/20 higher item level is the play

[cursive ridge]

they should have probably given crafted gear a separate color

[shut panther]

That last 1/20 is basically bis optimization

[warped nest]

If the gear tooltip doesn't have show me stats of HQ/NQ button

Then the gear has the correct stat matching their ilvl

[leaden granite]

Hey, I just got my miner to lvl 80. Im still quite noobie in this game, what gear should i aim for? is the white scraps gear enough for now?

or should i try to go for sth better (if there is?) before EW

[warped nest]

At this point of time

You are better off getting the lvl 81 gears in Endwalker

[cursive ridge]

oh damn, white gear also has the same stat allocation thingie as green crafted gear

[shut panther]

Do custom deliveries and buy whatever white scrip gear you can until then

[warped nest]

Oh, don't buy belts

Belts are going away in Endwalker

[leaden granite]

ok thx, so sitting on the white scraps gear is okay i'd assume

[leaden granite]

aight

[cursive ridge]

and the pink...

[shut panther]

I wouldn't put any real effort into it, because yeah you've less than a month into endwalker

but customs are ez and the gear will help you with levelling in ew at least

[cursive ridge]

so the only gear that has a different amount of stat pool is NQ crafted, white=pink=green=blue=purple

[leaden granite]

what are customs?

[cursive ridge]

that's quite a difference from what i'm used to

custom deliveries

they're unlocked shortly after you unlock collectibles

[leaden granite]

ah yea, i think i have 3 ppl unlocked for it atm, but there's a weekly cap for it

i can get gear from them? TIL

[cursive ridge]

you get scrips from them

[shut panther]

they're basically collectables that are disproportionately easy but weekly limited, yeah

they give you scrips at 80

instead of exp

[leaden granite]

ah thats what u mean, i see

[shut panther]

so yeah I'd just do those because they're comfy for a few weeks until ew

white scrips beyond that is much grindier

[leaden granite]

okay so i do those until im decked out in white scraps gear. is there any point in going for it afterwards?

or are there other/better endgame activities for miners

[cursive ridge]

white scrip gear is 'easy' top gear

[shut panther]

the thing is endwalker is out in a month

[cursive ridge]

the actual bis is the previous step, but pentamelded but that's super sweaty

[leaden granite]

i started playing this game like 2 weeks ago and am a complete MMO noob, so im a little bit lost. just wanna set myself up decently for EW

[shut panther]

right now there's basically a glut of materials, so there's not really much you can effectively bother with as a miner alone

[leaden granite]

yea ive read a bit aboud pentamelding but i dont think i wanna put in the effort into that before ew

[shut panther]

that isn't going to be completely obsloleted in a month

[cursive ridge]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Level_80_Gear_Guide this page has the overview of the available gear right now

DoH/DoL at the bottom

[leaden granite]

thats helpful, thanks

[shut panther]

if your goal is endwalker prep

the play would be custom deliveries for the next few weeks and whatever gear you get out of that

while levelling btn

instead of doing anything else at 80 on miner

[leaden granite]

okay cool, was thinking about lvling btn now

[cursive ridge]

and do the beast tribe quests for gatherers, that's a lot of easy exp

[leaden granite]

is it similar to miner? as in, leves till 50, then collectable stuff?

[shut panther]

same shit different animations, basically

[leaden granite]

kk

[cursive ridge]

if you want to turn off your brain, you can just go to diadem

[leaden granite]

first time i hear diadem

man there is so much stuff to do haha

[cursive ridge]

the firmament restoration thingie, the place where gatherers get stuff

ishgard restoration

[leaden granite]

ah ive heard isghard restoration before

okay but in general, i got SMN 80, now miner 80, then i will go for BTN 80

is there sth i should get to 80 before EW, that would make sense to have a decent start?

guess now is a good time to lvl jobs and get to know them a bit better

[shut panther]

depends what you want to do

[twin sable]

Hey anyone playing from india? I’m having trouble renewing my subscription after the new RBI rules

[shut panther]

in the most general sense

[leaden granite]

i wanna be able to make decent money so i can max out my SMN next patch

[shut panther]

having DoH at level cap would be ideal as well, if you want to be maximum prepared

[leaden granite]

doh was crafting?

[shut panther]

yes

[leaden granite]

okay, fishing isnt that important i assume? mainly for food related stuff?

then i would set that aside for now

[cursive ridge]

perks of this being a decade old game that doesn't fully abandon the old content

[shut panther]

well, everybody needs food at endgame, but yeah, you can ignore it and buy the stuff if you can't be arsed with it

[leaden granite]

yeah. its a bit overwhelming dipping into years and years of content as someone who didnt even play WoW. but its a nice timesink, i like that

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a guide for this event up currently? it says there is fates you can do to get scrapes which you can turn in for rewards?

[cursive ridge]

ffxv event guide should be in the pins

[flat basalt]

Bozjan is very confusing, but what is the difference between these two icons?

[cursive ridge]

look to be the same as other FATE icons

the bag probably means you're collecting things and turning them in

and the other is regular kill stuff

[flat basalt]

Thanks

[leaden ginkgo]

um it doesn't say where you can hand these in though? http://puu.sh/Iiusa/189f0a40ed.png

[cursive ridge]

vendors in each major city and in that city where the first part of the quest happens

[twin sable]

Anyone please? Been looking for solution for days.

Central Thanalan: X:9.4, Y:8.7
Limsa Lominsa (Upper Decks): X:11.1, Y:12.9
Old Gridania: X:9.4, Y:8.7
Ul’dah (Steps of Thal): X:13.5, Y:9.3```

[lethal mist]

Is it cool if I stick to set pieces at 50/60/70 during leveling? I have very little space and a lot to level. Those levels go by rather quickly anyway.

[cursive ridge]

yes

[shut panther]

are you saying

not upgrade at all

from 50-60 for exampl?

e

[lethal birch]

You will want to at least upgrade and discard them afterwards

[shut panther]

because absolutely not at all

[lethal birch]

Specially in the 60-70 range

Since a lot of the dungeons hurt a lot as the levels go by

Please don't be the tank with shire gear in abania

[shut panther]

if you're talking poetics sets, you can technically get away with it, though people will hate you from x7+

[lethal mist]

I'm talking highest for that level, so Augmented poetics at each interval

[shut panther]

if you're talking class sets.. they're obsolete immediately upon acquisition basically.

[lethal birch]

I will hate you in spirit

[humble cipher]

So I was able to acquire the maleficent mogstaff for the first time from the kupo king. Was going to try and sell it but unable to. I haven’t equipped it so it’s not spirit bonded but I can see others being sold on the market by other players. Is there a reason why? I’m unsure of how this system works.

[lethal mist]

Don't hate me, hate the system and the limited space ;_;

[lethal birch]

Equipping and using stuff binds it to you

[cursive ridge]

they have a crafted version

[shut panther]

the market version is crafted using materials from desynthing what you have

[humble cipher]

Ooooh

[cursive ridge]

75 is drops, 95 is craft

[lethal birch]

Are they all stuff you need? You can offload gear you have no use for at your grand company for free seals

[humble cipher]

Thank you!!

[lethal birch]

I clear up space by doing that every once in a while

[lethal mist]

Yes I know, but this involved a LOT of back and forth and knowing what's what. This game is excellent that I can do every class on a single character but it brings with it the mess that is both currencies and gear items. I will now start only leveling each class group tbh so I can then discard ALL gear from that group below 80 once I'm done (tanks, ranged, etc). Wish they'd have separate armoury chests cause then I wouldn't have this problem.-

[lethal birch]

I see

Yeah, that can be a pain

[cursive ridge]

you can safely destroy all 50-54, 60-64, 70-74 gear that is not poetics gear

[lethal birch]

^

Poetics stops being best in slot at the x5+ mark of any tier

[cursive ridge]

provided you have poetics alternative of course

[lethal mist]

Yeah I'm trying to do just that. I discard everything I don't need but then again, I will "re-need" it once I start the same type of class (Going from MCH to BRD for example).

I have now started purchasing full poetics sets for 50/60/70 until they're all past that

[cursive ridge]

if you're just doing daily roulettes with those jobs, don't bother with gear other than poetics

[lethal mist]

Yeah mostly just roulette anyway

[lethal birch]

They probably aren't

Oh

[cursive ridge]

19 times out of 20 you will not get any benefit for going for say 58 gear

[lethal birch]

Yeah, it's mostly a nonissue then

Just keep poetics unless you're power grinding though dungeons

And potd/hoh/bozja doesn't need gear, in the off chance you want to level through them

[lethal mist]

Oh right completely forgot those. I know Bozja is 71+ but how does PotD/HoH work for gaining "real" levels?

Thought they were entirely cut off

[cursive ridge]

on succesful completion of 10 level set, you will get about a dungeon's worth of 'real' experience

or somewhat less

[lethal birch]

You can reset hoh/potd progress to repeat the tier with the fastest clear/queue times

Though, Ive not used these methods yet

51-60 potd for 1-60

[leaden granite]

do MIN and BTN share the same gear? so i can reuse for lvling?

[cursive ridge]

yes

[leaden granite]

thats nice

[cursive ridge]

for the most part

excluding weapons of course

[leaden granite]

yea

[lethal birch]

Floors 21-30 in hoh, for 61-70

[cursive ridge]

there are some BTN only gear, and some MIN only gear, but it's rarer than the blanket "DoL" gear

[lethal mist]

So I go in from level 51, clear up to or including 60 and then exit and restart the process?

[cursive ridge]

pretty much

[lethal mist]

What happens if I go in on floor 51 but my real world character is below 51, does that matter?

[cursive ridge]

you matchmake into the lvl 51 checkpoint, clear the 10 level set, exit, delete save, start again

[lethal mist]

Oh nvm they stated 1-60

Coll I'll try that later. I've wanted to start scaling PotD and HoH anyway so perfect chance to get a feel for it.

Would party give decent xp as well or just solo is viable?

[cursive ridge]

these dungeons do not scale down anything for solo

it's technically possible to do them solo, but you get no benefit doing it

it's meant for a 4 player party

if you do 200 floors without dying solo, you get a title

but that's it

[lethal mist]

Yesh but I meant right now in the instance of leveling. Should I then do 51-60 by queue'ing and getting into a party of 4?

And same with HoH for levelnig purposes

[faint flare]

Yes

[tidal yarrow]

hello is there any ucob written guide i can find

cles maybe? how was that guy called

[lethal birch]

Mhm

[patent citrus]

is this true that looking for melding status icon is a request for ERP? (not extreme raid progression)

[worn flume]

clees

[leaden granite]

what do i do with gear that is "unsellable" and "market prohibited" ? do i just destroy it?

[cursive ridge]

GC seals, desynth

[leaden granite]

cant use for gc sealrs either

[cursive ridge]

desynth or vendor

if it's of no use to your alt jobs or retainers

[leaden granite]

ah i cant desynth yet anyway

yea i just need to declutter my god damn stash / armoury chest

oh btw, is it possible to make it that gear doesnt automatically go into the armoury chest, but in my regular inventory ?

[cursive ridge]

yes

there is a setting for that in character settings

[leaden granite]

ok somewhere in the options i would guess? nice, gonna look it up thx

[opaque fiber]

i forgot to look sorry I'm that late 👀 I only looked in inventory but also used /isearch welskin

[neat hazel]

how to show HUD i press something and everything is hidden

[cursive ridge]

scroll lock by default

[gloomy mortar]

Is there a site that recounts the lore of ShB fate chains? I completed it with a fate farming party. Was over in like 30 secs

[neat hazel]

tnx

[opaque fiber]

Maybe anyone knows how to fix this?

[pure zenith]

belts are usually the culprit

[opaque fiber]

Hmm I searched them

[pure zenith]

since they tend to be shared

[heavy wadi]

fabled belt of x

or hero's belt of x

[opaque fiber]

fabled?

[regal pawn]

☝️

[opaque fiber]

ohhhhh

thanks!

[cursive ridge]

it's welkin, not welskin

[opaque fiber]

ah I see

[olive prawn]

Can you turn more than one item at the time when you craft in the firminment

[worn verge]

how do I get the second mount speed increase?

[twilit arch]

one item per turn in

[cursive ridge]

purchase riding maps

[worn verge]

where do?

[boreal storm]

Riding maps, they aren’t needed

[faint flare]

Hunt currency usually

[cursive ridge]

it is generally not worth it as it only affects ground speed

[twilit arch]

2nd movement speed is bought with allied seals if ARR zones, centurio seals if hw/sb zones

[faint flare]

Bicolour gemstones for Shadowbringers

[twilit arch]

there's no 2nd speed for shb zones

just first

[faint flare]

They're not super useful

[worn verge]

my need for speed disagrees.

[boreal storm]

Flight is already max speed

[faint flare]

Just fly

It's the fastest

[worn verge]

Yah but the motorcycle is more fun on the ground lol

[faint flare]

Mount speed doesn't affect flying

Only ground

[worn verge]

I get that. thanks for the answer though

[flat basalt]

Is there a way to get class icons next to friendly player Healthbar/name?

[green grail]

not with the game itself but there's a plugin for it in the quicklauncher

[gritty lynx]

How many classes can be used at ShB MSQ for levelling? Levelling seems to come to a halt after I finished Road to 70 buff.

[regal pawn]

2-3

[gritty lynx]

I see, thanks

[regal pawn]

Thought the SHB msq xp waste isn't that big of a deal

Due to Bozja existing
Which is an instance where fates give you 800k-1.2 million xp and special fates give you 2 mil

[glossy flare]

2-3 might be overstating things a bit tbh

[gritty lynx]

when do you unlock Bozja?

[glossy flare]

the msq is designed to carry 1 job through it all in terms of xp

that is true for all of it, not just shb

the road to 70 buff just expands it to 2-3

[glossy flare]

you need 5.3 msq completion to unlock the actual zone

but I think you can start with the questline as soon as 5.1

(also requires the Stormblood alliance raids complete, if you haven't done that yet)

[gritty lynx]

Done that, can't stand alliance raids being locked

[spiral mango]

do all classes have the same amount of actions ?

[cursive ridge]

no

[spiral mango]

who has the least and who has the most ?

[agile laurel]

dnc/rdm for lower

[glossy flare]

they are all in the same ballpark however

[obsidian patio]

I don’t keep exact count but I think Machinist or Dancer have among the least

[agile laurel]

smn, pld or ninja for higher

probably

[sullen zephyr]

Hey guys, I have a question about raid macros, If I see a macro with M1,M2 and R1,R2, but we are running a run with 4R for example, how will the macro translate into D1,D2,D3,D4?

[glossy flare]

like 30-35 or something

[obsidian patio]

People volunteer to take melee spots

[agile laurel]

2 people have to fake-melee

usually rphys

[cursive ridge]

1 - Machinist: unique 19 Skills slots.
2 - White Mage: unique 21 Skills slots.
3 - Warrior: unique 22 Skills slots.
4 - Summoner: unique 23 skills slots.
5 - Dragon: unique 23 skill slots.```

[sullen zephyr]

ohh so we just take M1,M2 even though it isnt melee so we can still use it without confusion... never thought of that 😄 Thank you

[cursive ridge]

DNC have 21 Unique Skills, same WHM amount

[leaden ginkgo]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Necrologos_Pale_Oblation this isn't available to me even after completing the trial? how do I get it to show up?

these are the only ones he's giving me the option to pick http://puu.sh/Iiv7u/662bbd5036.png

[twilit arch]

pick one up and complete it

[cursive ridge]

complete one of the other ones

[twilit arch]

the npc has more leves than are available

so you need to do one to rotate them

[cursive ridge]

the one you want may spawn isntead

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Rurubana
apparently there's 6 possible ones

[leaden ginkgo]

ok thank you! ❤️

[covert marlin]

does it exist maps that shows treasure coffer location in dungeons?

[boreal storm]

No, because the boss chests are the only ones that really matter

And you can usually see the generic chests on the path

[cursive ridge]

https://www.garlandtools.org/db/#instance/5 has the coordinates and loot

[twilit arch]

no

they are not tradeable @leaden ginkgo

[covert marlin]

consolewiki has coordinates too just wondering since map is easier to see

[undone warren]

What are timeworn treasuremaps for?

[covert marlin]

treasure

after deciphering it

[cursive terrace]

can we use triple triad cards as macro icons?

[undone warren]

Is the treasure worth more then just selling the maps on the MB?

[cursive ridge]

the item icons yes

[boreal storm]

Not unless you wanna leave a TT card in your inventory for no reason

[cursive terrace]

not the item icon, the icons they have in the triple triad menu

[boreal storm]

Then no

[cursive terrace]

sad

they look cool and are the same size as the other icons

[covert marlin]

I'm not familiar with market, someone else can help you with it ^^

[worn flume]

if you have good rng yes

a map can give you potentially 100k + market value of whatever drops you get

[leaden granite]

Hey guys, a bit of a tricky problem for me: I just made 2 job macros for SMN and MIN (my only two jobs atm). It works nicely, the only problem is that some skills carry over in the hud layout, even though i juse hudlayout 1 for SMN and hudlayout 2 for MIN. so if i, for example, remove Ruin from my hotbar on MIN (which shouldnt even be there?!), it will also get removed from my SMN layout 1, which is very confusing to me. anyone knows what im doing wrong?
https://gyazo.com/bc87489df6a212a8c6c658eda94ed84a
this is what im talking about. if i remove the Ruin there, it will also be removed when i change to back SMN. and again, i use 2 different layouts for MIN/SMN

[faint flare]

The hotbar is shared

[cursive ridge]

you can choose which hotbars are shared between jobs

in the options

[faint flare]

Character configuration > hotbar > sharing

Turn it off

[leaden granite]

ah thanks a lot!

man what would i do without this discord jesus

[faint flare]

You'll need to reassign the skills after toggling the option

[leaden granite]

thats okay, one time work

what does "cross hotbar" mean in that menu?

share is obv

[cursive ridge]

gamepad

[faint flare]

Controller

[leaden granite]

ah ok

okay, so lvling BTN is pretty similar to miner? doing leves till 50, then collectables, and jobquests obv ?

[faint flare]

It's the same as miner

[leaden granite]

ok cool, thx

[olive prawn]

Can you buy materia from npc show or only market

People are so greedy everything so lrocy

[faint flare]

Only market

Crafting/gathering materia can be gotten with scrips

[olive prawn]

K don't get anymore gathering yellow scrip did I hit a weekly cap?

[gritty lynx]

No, scrips have a max of 2k. You need to spend them

[olive prawn]

I spent them I have 300/2000

[faint flare]

Then just do the collectibles that actually give them

[boreal storm]

If you have custom deliveries unlocked, do those too

[leaden ginkgo]

http://puu.sh/Iivzx/83c1c039a1.png does it mean ilvl of 40?

[twilit arch]

no

it means your retainer needs 40 gathering stat

[leaden ginkgo]

but it says it's a lvl 11 quest?

[faint flare]

It's the GATHERING stat

[hot eagle]

it needs better gathering gear

[faint flare]

Aka they need more gear with gathering on it

[twilit arch]
