what instance are people spamming most for the tomestones?
T2 with full BLU
T2 with or without blu
noice
tysm!!
with or without blu-ohohooo
I can't live, with or without blu
Which maps do people tend to farm Fate's in Gyr Abania/Far East for relic memories?
Did it in yanxia and the lochs, had others there too
Is HoH designed to be done with a group in mind? I tried to start it in a solo save to give it a go, but even the 1st enemy would kill me and be a huge battle to kill so I kinda gave up.
the lochs is popular as well as the fringes
I did azim steppe for the other
Yes you need gold
I think so, never got any when I didn't get gold, but might just be lower chance or random
Ah
ty
if i want to buy stormblood to have access to red mage while im still doing hsw story (in the free trial) will i lose my free trial access and have to start paying sub?
Yes
Yes cause you need to buy the game
You'll also have to buy starter
you have to buy starter too? weird
You don't own the base game when doing free trial
You can't use dlc for a game you don't own
It's a very generous free trial but it still is one
you can, sure
If you want to shortcut it
its a shortcut?
Yes
Yeah
It skips all the grinding
there is tome gear you can buy in Eulmore
ahh
Also nier raids
using revelation
Youāre jumping up 80 item levels for 0 effort
Eden and nier is how you gear up without iy
And eden
With tomes
if you preorder endwalker does it come with the previous expansions or do i have to wait for it to come out?
You'll get previous expansion once it gets released
Wait
okay but not before got it
You don't have to wait to buy it but you won't get access to them beforehand
!faq buy
You should get to play them during early access, so itās slightly shorter of a wait
Well ye
what's the lost action for warrior to solo cluster farming in bozjan?
bloodscuker + ?
Lost slash + banner
Slash basically kills the entire pack under ir
ok
By the time they respawn and you pull again the Cooldowns are back up
If you donāt have Slash, Lost Rampage from Zadnor is good spammable AoE damage
But definitely slower
ok yeah
Death farm zone 3 star mobs for more slashes
i plan to farm the 20 memories thing, i'll go to bozjan after i finished that chocobo challenge log
and see what cartridge i have
so noble ends wont reduce heal from nascent flash?
"while reducing own HP recovery via most healing actions by 100%"
It doesn't
ok
Noble end prevents anything with a cure potency on it
So Equilibrium or storm path
But not life steal effects like nascent or Bloodsucker
ok ty ty

i just bought endwalker which one do i use
Do we know how much the belt coffers are going to sell to vendors to? If feel like using the coffer and desynthing the belt is a better.desynthing the belt is
use the preorder bonus code
thanks
then you input the expansion code once it's actually released
is there any word on if the level boosts will be to 80 once endwalker releases?
yes
and the answer is most likely yes
do you think it will probably be on early access, release, or after?
pre-order
baaaaasically
You can't redeem the expansion until around the time it comes out
but you can redeem the pre-order stuff
will i get emailed the code
yes
Hello all, is there anyway to prevent other windows disappearing (item recipe tree in this instance) when opening the retainer inventory?
no
Someone recommended I do wondrous tails, can I do that now?
Iām level 59
And almost done with hw I think

Would SE announce new rewards for Golden Saucer or Achievement Points in advance/have any upcoming ones been announced?
Or is that something that would more likely happen in patches following EW release
this one is too long? it drops the event currency so it would be a win win
It's longer, can't remember how much tho

Wait the wiki says 3 rows is 20 platinum cards
I'll look into it thanks! 
Also posts s-ranks and such
It's very hard to get
What do you have to do
From the wiki it just sounds like you have to replay dungeons and stuff
Yea you gotta clear the stuff on the left to get stickers, 9 max
They'll be applied on the right, at 3-7 stickers your can move them about using second chance points
So, unless you need to redo some duty, usually people use 2nd chance points for rerolling when at 7 stickers
It gets completed through unsync too btw
it's still outrageously rare to luck upon 3 rows
Yea
Remember lines are arenāt the goal, theyāre the side objective
like, for most people it's 'might get it once' territory

Any idea how this housing lottery system is going to work?
Will you be able to choose the house you want or are you just grabbing a paper out of a hat
you mean for the new ishgard housing?
they might make it available to only FC purchases for the first day, and then open it to everyone after
Oh interesting
also, housing that was never owned before and is now available, can be purchased immediately under normal circumstances
no invisible timers
What cause you to gain LB charge?
Like, when people get healed while at really low health, does that give you LB charge?
Wait what
you go the sign and you buy it, that's it
Where does the lottery system come into play then
(for the new housing added)
Oh only new housing?
that comes into play when a house that was previously owned, is now out on the market
Because when you heal people at really low health, you can hear the "sling" "sling" LB bar gain sound
it was implemented to prevent "flips"
Yeah that makes sense
eg a player would set up a deal with another player, and then sell the house so they can buy it as soon as possible
but now that the purchase is delayed by 8-25 hours randomly
it's not feasible or trustworthy to flip
I was wondering if there was a way to obtain armors from coffers that you no longer have? Since I want to use the Torrent armor, but I seem to not have the coffer its from anymore
coffers in most cases contain an assortment of gear that is already purchasable
for that in particular, you can obtain them for poetics in shire
buy it with poetics in idylshire/ishgard
Ah alright, didn't know that, good to know tho
what materia is useful for WHM?
thanks, i've been going with crit and direct hit. just wanted another opinion š
yes
you also gain lb gauge from taking a lot of damage at once
Thanks, I found this guide:

I only know all of this because of lb bullshit in uwu
saw this meme on reddit and couldnt understand it lol I main dps btw. What do the numbers and red icons stand for?
The numbers are your position on the aggro table.
The icons represent different dps classes.
red icons are dance partner
Oh, the dance partner icons.
dancers (the heart looking icons which are actually fan things) can pick a partner that will have their damage boosted by certain abilities
oh i mean the red thingy on the top left
!action closed position
I saw the meme and totally didn't notice those.
Grants you Closed Position and designates a party member as your Dance Partner, allowing you to share the effects of Standard Finish, Devilment, and Curing Waltz with said party member.
Effect ends upon reuse.
BRDs are underappreciated
But yeah, basically it's playing on the fact that SAM is one of the main preferred classes to dance partner with.
And BRD is... not.
the numbers are what enmity rank you are
Generally (and ONLY for DPS)
The lower the number, the more damage you're doing
Lower in the aggro table means next in line to being targetted?
yup
Gotchaaa thanks guys!
so a tank will generally be A
question, is there somewhere to read regarding zadnor/similar locations/raids for specific roles, like whm (I just unlocked zadnor, and via really bad lag/other factors, I've just been getting carried in things like DR as I die before I see a few mechanics), I've just 'fixed' my ping using a VPN, mudfish. Now that I actually have some control, trying to see what lost finds are good to use and whatnot. Background, I have intense chronic pain, just came off 3 year daily chemo, so the past couple months is like 'a blur' so I literally dont remember much in fights on what worked/didnt work, if get me. The intense pain makes it hard to 'express myself' clearly, sorry
as in main target
In a typical 4 man group
tank will be A
Healer might be 2
dps will be 3 and 4
If there's not much healing required, healer will fall down
I see, so I as a DPS should make sure that I don't get A right?
Safest bet for an essence is Ordained
followed by Aetherweaver
If you're DPS or Healer
And you have A
What the fuck is going on 
If your tank has their stance on and are pushing buttons, you shouldn't ever get aggro as dps.
Im really over getting carried for the main, as I used to be a really good 'top tier' but due to my injury/pain/chemo, Im almost useless, but.. Im off chemo now, and starting to manage my pain somewhat now that the chemo is out of the equation. So, Im trying to like 'start again' even though Im 520 + 530 lvl gear, I know rotations etc well, but most mechanics are almost 'foreign' due to the pain/chemo helping me 'forget' fights, just the truth
thx, looking into it š
as for the abilities
actualyl
yeah
Ordained + Lost Chainspell + Lost Seraph Strike
!action essence of the ordained
this is basically free buffs
I bought a heap of lost fragments, so I can try to have a good base, just trying to see what to use. I got like maybe 60-70% of the things opened in lost finds cache
Chainspell makes all of your spells instant cast for 30s and give you 45% more magic damage but increase MP costs
But due to Ordained, you will negate the mp increase AND the damage bonus will become 100% for the 30s
Seraph strike uses 5k mana to deliver an attack with 500 potency and reduces target's accuracy by 10% for 15s
While granting you Cleric Stance
Which reduces healing by 60% but increases damage by 60% for 15s
TYVM
Is there any difference between ruin 1 and 2 for scholar? everyone keeps telling me 1 has higher damage but both say they have a potency of 160?
!action ruin 2
!action ruin
Ruin 1 is a long cast
Ruin 2 is instant
180
Use ruin 1 basically all the time
Unless you have to move or weave a heal
then you use Ruin 2
huh
ah wait
yeah
stinky smn ruin
SMN ruin different
yeah im scholar
ah, I have lost 15 lost chainspells. handy
from what i can tell its the exact same just one is instant other isnt
ah yes
until 54 that's pretty much the diff
Ruin 1 costs less
why in BIS TEA gear there are 470 ilvl accesories meanwhile we can have 475 ilvl ones. Melds are deleted from 475 aswell ?
both are 400 
theyre both 400
Because TEA syncs ilevel.
Wait thatās SMNās version
And stats
anyways
im gonna keep using 2 for now and jump around as always :)
but its 475 ilvl synced
Ruin 1 is a long cast
Ruin 2 is instant
Once you get to 54, they split
Ruin 1 becomes Broil
Ruin 2 is still Ruin 2
Broil for damage
Ruin 2 for weavine
substats maybe?
not 470
ah yeah, havent got there yet
It syncs to 450
Oh, wait no
That's the minimum
Probably still has to do with the stat balance.
sync is 475
Cause the substats on the higher aren't bettrr
Depending in job
how long does it take to get trhough the crystal tower quests in 1.5?
you lose crit for dh
same here
substats pretty much
also tiering
though funnily enough
you might use some of hte armor 
Depends on job
i need samurai one
but waist have the same substat
and still 470 are BIS
CRT DET
which can suit the fight better
Augmented deepshadow has the same substat as shadowless
The list isnt focusing on crit, its wanting speed and direct hit
you sure ?
I
I just posted the thing that's on balance so yeah
i'm pretty sure
More than welcome to check it yourself

you can make your own bis set; itās TEA and itās SAM .. there wont be an absolutely bis
not that long, assuming you queue in relatively quick
roulette
wondrous tails, if you wanna do the same trial 9 times
different builds ..
Substat tiering
i am talking about waist
If you want ultra specifics you're better off asking the balance people themselves
!faq balance
the 2 screenshots posted are of 2 clearly different builds .. fast sam and max dmg sam
A deepshadow CRT DET 470 ilvl
shadowless CRT DET 475 ilvl
even with that, if they are really the same same, iāll take the deepshadow one ⦠farming gauntlet gave me ptsd
Is there any easy way to Unsync solo Second Coil T4? I can't seem to get past the golems
What level are you?
This is a dumb question but I cant find the second blu mage quest. I checked the wiki and went to all the spots and nothing and I dont have a quest under msq so hmm maybe im blind or dumb
It's very specific
80, WHM
If he's not in uldah then you ditched him in middle La noscena
i just weaved through dragons and mobs 15 levels above me
and this is what im given

is the top right aetherite in pagos like that too?
level requirement
thats what I thought but he isnt here either
he is evading me D:
I shall keep exploring
he cant hide forever >:(
I don't believe WHM is one of the classes able to solo T9
There's only like, three that can.
yeah idk :(

whats the fastest way to level up in pagos after getting log done?
Lower La NosceaĀ (X:19.3,Ā Y:36.4)
or should i just stick to anemos while im still low 20s
Do fates
i get killed by literally everything on my way to fates
and they dont even give me lockboxes either bc of how low of a level i am

Every role in need in DF is Tank,.lol,...what's going on? Is this an accurate real time representation of need? or is it bad rng?
literally walk to avoid waking dragons
ye i did that
Move behind things
Things either aggro by sight, sound, casting stuff or low hp
whats better for xp, bozja or zadnor?
casting and low hp?
Yes
Sprites will aggro you when you use skills
And undead mobs aggro you if you're low hp
Bojza and Zadnor have identical xp rewards
do i still get gil for transferring to a preferred server if i have a house or would i need to relinquish the land before i can?
heck, thankfully I managed to understand how to use PF and some kind souls helped me
I think bozja is a bit faster for exp because the fates are closer together and pop a bit more often
how much should i be behind in dps as tank in % for example dps did 34% in a boss fight i did 17%
but the amount you get is similar
i think tank is generally around 55% of dps? don't quote me on that
thanks
Is there a guide for the two new events that just came out?
so if i level up arcanist and the summoner until 50, if i switch to scholar, will it be also 50?
yes
Yes, but you'll need to do the SCH job quests.
epic?!?!
because summoner and scholar both use arcanist levels
This might be weird, but i leveled my GNB to level 70 just to wear elemental gear +1. whats the best weapon i can wear for this? that fits the original undyed set
doing post-hw, just found ||alisaie||, is the end nigh?
try the #glamour-discussion folks theyll give you the knowledge you seek
whats the name of the quest
@pure zenithokay sorry wrong channel
idk, im not on my pc right now. i just wanna know if im close to finishing hw
im tired of all this damn snow
roughly like 19-25 quests I think
tho tbf half of them will be in less frigid weather
trying to play rival wigns witbh my level 38 friend so we can both unlock mounts but it says requirements not meant
do they have to finish base game? we're both at wolves den pier
is your friend on trial
did they complete the intro quest?
on trial yes
Trials can't do pvp
trials cant pvp
Too many cheaters
aww š¦
Is there any point to doing the Dragon Quest FATEs once you've done the quest?
Do you get interesting loot or...?
i'm using moon flute and whistle before final sting. is there anything else besides those buffs that can increase its damage?
finally got my blu to 70 finally found the damn npc aswelland was wondering what a few spells I should defiantly get. I have basically none so far sadly
did they already use a recruit-a-friend code?
maybe i can buy the game for them
not yet they havent used it
can someone send a link for sam end game gear
Also thatās not how you unlock mounts
are they using steam? i can only buy on steam
yes they're using steam
i'll message u in private
what's the context
tank cycling ogcds?
yes just don't stack them
diminishing returns
for dungeon mobs specifically
It's multiplicite stacking
reprisal you can stack with arm's length
Just use Cooldowns one by one
since 10% is a bit weak
Light Cooldowns can be paired if needed

for extreme and above difficulty bosses, the way you use cooldowns will change - reprisal will usually be for raidwides, and the stronger ones will almost exclusively be for tankbusters, paired with your short cd mitigation skill
What is the name of the song that plays when you fight Neo Exdeath in Deltascape 4.0 Savage?
what's preferred for the second first time grind for resistance weapons? 30 of each raid or zandor fates?
i guess i could level a second class there too
theoretically in terms of least time spent, i'd imagine it's still the raids though right?
youll hate yourself less if you do the zandor skirmishes for at least half of your grind
What's the max rank I can get with beast tribes?
And cleared fast with how strong you are
if i buy the game for my second account (steam), can i give the activation code to someone else?
you'd have to buy it as a gift
I don't think you'd be able to play it on that account anymore cause it applies the codes immediately to your steam account
Is it possible to trade items in this game with friends? Couldnt find anything online
yes
how do i learn Level 5 Death as a blue mage?
some items are marked as untradeable but a lot of items you can craft and/or farm and trade with friends
for omega raids 3 and 4 , for eden 3. I was doing that the last week counting time to see which one take less time
i dont think it does
Would recommend doubling down on omega 4 since it also gives moogle tomes
What's the max rank I can get with beast tribes?
Allied
Except for shadowbringers
And that takes a special quest after maxing out the previous rank for all the beast tribes of that expansion
Perfect ty!
Basically just level til the reputation need for the next rank is 0/0
Unless it's ixal there's usually only 3-4 ranks
So After I get Allied for every tribe in Shb, I get 1 extra quest to get 1 extra rank for the 3 tribes?
there is no allied beast tribe quest for shb
Other way around
And there is no allied rank for shadowbringers
Allied is after the extra quest line
ok, I get the last before Allied with the 3 and one extra quest to get the next rank for everyone, got it
which number is allied?
and its an extra quest once you've got all tribes of that expac to bloodsworn (for hw+ tribes), trusted (for arr except ixali)/sworn (ixali)
Also I'm Pretty sure that you need the arr allied quest before the hw and sb ones
In the pixies I'm in the mid of 6.honored, is that the last one?
I haven't maxed any yet
what number is bloodsworn and allied?
bloodsworn is 8, allied 9 for expac tribes
which number is trusted and sworn?
wait, so no beast tribe can get allied just alone?
no
You do a quest line
allied quest would make no sense if it was based solely on one tribe maxing out
Appropriately called allied quests
why?
It involves all the tribes
it's about the beast tribes allying with each other
Because you bring them together
and in allied, besides story quests, do i get also repeatable quests to fill the bar?
kholusia beach/amh araeng
in ShB tribes, do I need to only reach bloodsworn, or to max it, to unlock allied?
They donāt have one
i said before
there isn't an allied quest for shb.
there is no allied beast tribe for shadowbringers
Because you're getting the beast tribes to ally themselves. Hence allied
The chart wouldāve mentioned ShB if it applied
in ShB tribes, do i need to reach bloodsworn or to max it, to unlock the extra story of all tribes?
There is no allied beast tribe quest
bloodsworn is max rank
there is no additional quest
We just told you this
so I can get bloodsworn to 1 tribe, forget about the others 2, and no more stuff happens with that tribe
correct
once I get to bloodsworn, do I still get the 3 extra repetable quests like everytime i get new rank?
the exp I get from tribes is more with a higher rank?
No
I haven't done any EX mount grinding yet, but I do have a lv 80 dps. Are the horse mounts more efficient to farm by unsyncing their trials or by purchasing them after farming T2 via BLU method?
HW and onward tribe quests scale to your lvl
what about the HW bird mount?
And you can kill arr exs in like 30s or less
Same, just no nightmare equivalent
All ex mounts are roughly the same
probably the same but dont try to solo anything past the 2 primals
it's not worth it
But HW extremes take more time solo
Anything past Bismarck/Ravana basically need you to be a tank
I'm just mainly trying to gauge where the cutoff point is for time efficiency
Due to the damage the fights do
Anything past Ravana and Bismark are only doable on war/paladin
And highly not advised
The edge is calling tonight
Wonder if being lvl 90 will let a dps solo the hw exs
Depends how the stat squish affects it
Stat squish is supposed to be globalized
And how big the unsync echo buff is
Yeah
So realistically there should be no decrease in kill time
unless they really fuck something up in the coding
Also fight mechanics
Thordan and Sephriot will need alot of hp/mitigation/healing to get through
Yeah some of Sephās mechanics do like 100k+ when done wrong for no real reason
When max HW health was like 30k
Tower kills you, tether kills you
why would you want to make a new character if you can be every job on one?
Sephirot instakills you if you dont have an invuln
Playing on different data centres, avoiding loot lockouts, Rp etc
What's the difference between minions that have wind-up or dress-up on the name?
theyāre different
if i leave bozjan and enter again, it changes the instace? i need to do a lot of cll, so...
usually they're characters with different outfits
Not always
but it is possible?
Only if the previous instance you're in fills up
but do all dressup have any feature different with all windup?
Thereās like 3 yshtolas
so they put windup at the first version, dressup at the second?
Yo!
ive tried picking up another job just now
and when i swap job it only resets one of my hotbars
Shared hotbars
the other bars i use seem to be universal
Turn off sharing
oh gotcha
Character configuration > hotbar > sharing
found it
tyvm :)
i was about to use HUD layout slots to create different sets for each job
but that would be quite annoying and limiting
um
one more question
i kinda lost my sprint
and i cant seem to find it
Press p, general section
Just preorderered endwalker where do I get the ring?
its under the general section
you mean the earring?
you'll get in the mail
oh
Ye
is amaurot best place to farm event?
So delivery moogle?
Will I get it come the 23rd or now?
Now
Far from it, blue mage turn 2
And PvP if you like that
blue mage...turn... 2?
Coils
ah, the raid series I skipped
kk, ty
You can be a tank for it
but I'll move it up my priorities

What does Lfg mean ? I see people shouting it in chat
Lmao
Lfg means looking for group
The most common reply to that is "use party finder lmao"
It's probably some sprout who came from another game where that is the standard
Except bozja
Bozja is the only place you ask for lfg because no pf
Or people shouting in chat for a hunt train invite
That too
Is Eureka connected to Bozja? Cause I just joined eureka and leveled up to 23 and I do not know ehat I am doing. Is there suppose to be quest popping up?
why do some skull fates take forever? I'm doing one that is lvl 9 that seems to have 5 times as much health as others
It's a boss fate
And if it has a timer longer than 15mins then it's a special achievement fate
See the timer
music and introduction music
Or when you get close it plays a different music
are also different
Also has different music
So what do you do in eureka ? Just fates ?
Basically yes
Eureka is relic stuff iirc... dunno never been there
And mobs to spawn those fates
for pld, how do you know how long your shield bash is going to stun? i.e., when do the diminishing returns reset?
My scions' coffer shall forever remain in debt to a samurai sword WE ALSO SOMEHOW NEVER RETURNED TO GOSETSU
where do I see that timer?
You dont
And generally not something you need to keep track of
Only bosses take longer than 1min
And bosses largely can't be stunned after arr
when do meteria stop working for uwu? is it above 375 or over lvl 70 gear?
ty
Yo is it me or are the servers acting a bit wacky today cause I have been grinding praetorium and crashing randomly all day for some reason and the game is running totally fine and everything and this has never happened before and Im not the only one apparently cause I see other people also having connection issues so are the servers messed up or something?
Ultima Weapon Ultimate, one of the 3 ultimate fights
What, if anything, do I get if I'm able to find and beat a Brick by Gold Brick FATE?
That how I get the crown?
Technically the duty is named āThe Weaponās Refrain (Ultimate)ā but people found that too boring
The crown should be buyable with Gil from the Tough Guys where you finished the seasonal event
Ooooh kk
So is there nothing to gain from the gold one then?
It doesn't, it wants Brick by Stone or Gold Brick
hey, question regarding Dear Leader I, do i need to do 10 different missions or can i spam one of them 10 times? also is there a guide/how can i level my recruits faster?
can spam te same one 10 times
Quick question, I'm currently on diablos, but I'm looking for more community than it has to offer, does anyone have recommendations?
no way? shieeeeet.
and another, it says assignments, is that command or the other one?
nvm, wrong thing., ty~
The Makai armors, are they not available atm? Since they're not in Mogstation, i guess it's from an event that will likely repeat?
is there a way to apply dyes from my retainers and not needing them in my inventory?
yes they are no longer obtainable
and unlikely to rerun

no
Someone told me to go to Ward 24 plot 43 but when I went there I see only plots below 30?
In Goblet
You need to look at the subdivision
Yoshi said he may try to figure stuff out in regards to Garo, but don't expect it to return any time soon.
Hmm it just says this
yes 31+ is in the subdivision
Oh, how do I get there?
if you're in ward 24
just go to one of the aethernet shards
and select any of the options that says subdivision
How do I get blue mage actions ?? Cause it says get it in du geon but it not allowing me
They need to cast the spell first in order to learn it
If it's unsynced it's rng
Synced is guaranteed
With exception of glower and mind blast which are always guaranteed
Does book of refulgence drops only in savage? or it can be looted in normal difficulty of the raid@faint flare
Rng?
Is there an item to increase drop rate?
No
is something up with servers or smth
Only savage
trying to find a dps class that fits my playstyle. i really enjoy pld and sch atm. in gw2 i played condition weaver, scourge necro, and condition herald. i like survivability with some challenge. Is there anything besides red mage for me or is that pretty much whatd be my best bet?
dang.
DPS aren't really supposed to be survivable, is the thing
RDM is kind of a unique case
It's probably cause I'm stupid but how do you get lvl 80 gathering accessories other than crafting or buying off the board?
then you'll want a tank i reckon, Tank has this "privilege" that often don't get killed by raidwide
well i dont mean in raids/dungeons/etc. just in open world. i dont want to have to constantly rely on my choco healing me
Unless you're doing fates then you can solo on any job
but it's better to let your choco healing you
cause you don't want to waste time healing yourself
They specifically said dps
yes im speaking specifically dps so i have something to use incase my pld/sch is not needed for raids
I mean in terms of challenge that really depends on how you mean
cause there are classes that are considered hard to play but their rotations are relatively straightforward
and there are classes whose rotations give people carpal tunnel
sounds like gw2 weaver lol
no need to survive if they are dead before hitting you
it really depends on what you're looking for
got the same thing
it's not really a matter of what classes are better either since every class is viable so most people just operate based off of particular utility needs or whichever fantasy flavor they prefer
i have brd at 55 but i feel like it lacks some oomph. does it get any harder hitting skills?
Delivers an attack with a potency of 120 to all enemies in a straight line before you.
Soul Voice Gauge Cost: 20
Potency increases up to 600 as Soul Voice Gauge exceeds minimum cost.
Consumes Soul Voice Gauge upon execution.
is there any way for me to enable DoTs to show up on the scrolling combat text?
and they have a lot of "cantrip" and knockback type stuff so i guess that can be survivabiliy
enable "display pop-up text" to see dot dmg @cosmic mica
how much like brd is mch? obviously it doesnt have the songs but is it the same mobility and such?
ive got it on
mch has no support song and no proc
they're both ranged phys so yes
but bio and miasma wont show up at all
classes within the same role types share certain utility aspects
I do think SAM has some survivability
actually nvm i think they might show up
so MCH is also a physical class with instant cast GCDs with and far range
it just didnt have a name attached
It has the same survival as all melees
if anything MNK probably has the most survivability of DPS melees
i think the flashy hard hitters with mobility is what id like to go with so what would be in that category? brd, mch, sam, drg?
Make sense
phys ranged or casters
Or samurai
Monk in endwalker as well
I'm thinking of "mobility" in the sense that they're allowed to move away from enemies so melees don't really count in my mind
yes that and able to move while casting
casters are supposed to be low mobility but they all have a lot of unique tools to make up for it
ye, all physical ranged. All melees are kinda glued to the boss lols
Then you're basically locked to physical ranged and casters
casters have their mobility, but won't be as smooth as physical ranged
since sometimes you need to stop and cast
slidecasting counts as mobility right :p
what support does dancer offer?
damage boost, š shield, healing boost. They are pretty strong
they're basically rdps the class
since they have the lowest personal damage of all DPS
oof
you should still be doing a decent chunk of damage as it though
and it's burst phases can get pretty active
at what level would you say is good to get a good feel of dancer/machinist? (please dont say 80 lol)
72 for dancer
most classes I'd say 60-65ish
Which is only 12 levels
yeh, DNC starts as lv 60
Flourish basically gets you done
once you get technical step you're basically already there
you just don't have esperit

awesome. thank you guys so much
yeh, level all 3 BRD/DNC/MCH and see which one that you like
They said they were changing DNC's mechanics to be less RNG-reliant in EW yea?
just switch weapon/job stone, easy
oh they all use the same gear? yessssss
hmm, not less rng reliant but more consistent(?) dmg with procs
someone had a gif
!faq interject
that answers my question of what to spend these tomestones on since im nowhere near 70 vendor
thanks
does the blue power leveling method (tagging and having a friend kill level 70 mobs for you) work on normal battle classes as well?
no
No cause other jobs get jack shit mob xp
It works with blue cause they have a giant multiplier on overworld mob xp
for DRG is Deep essence Beast good? I don't have any skirmisher left
Only if you use Assassination with it
nice, I'll do
Just be careful of where you use Assassination in your rotation cause it will cause your Fang and claw/Wheeling thrust/raiden procs to expire
and with that, the other action is ok to be lost font of power?
Assassination gives you Font of Power
oh, thxs
any offensive banner is good?
i missed the 60% discount it will come back right ?
Yes any offensive Banner
thxs
how do i get level 5 death, do i just have to keep getting hit by it and hope i survive?
you don't need to get hit by the spell
you just need to see it cast to learn. also if you're doing gubal library for it, you should be doing it sync so its a 100% learn rate
oh lmao
unsync is rng
ty
Whatās the best way to farm the moogle tomes?
blue mage
how do i backup my keybinds and macro
What if I donāt have a blue mage?
What are all the mounts I can get from Save the Queen?
in pf for delubrum people always ask to bring rend, derv, banish and c4s, what's that?
Those are lost actions
I wouldnt bother with PF runs unless it's one saying "pop an essence and yeet it"
Most of them are hardcore speedfarmers or savage
being kinda for speedrun (pf for DR), u thing people from the alliance would kick me if I ask basic stuff ask, showing I'm still learning combination of lost actions/essences, being mostly dead weight?
If they're asking for specific things and you join
and you don't have said things
You're essentially griefing
naa, just bring essences and speedrun
probably ok, but run it once or twice normally in DF (talk to the guy) so you learn mechanics
Most of them are a joke to understand
i know the mechanics already
Then you're fine, go for it
im just not efficient with doing max damage
Most people can't do proper rotations anyway cause they're not greeding despite the bosses dealing 0 damage
You'll never die to an aoe unless it's from twice ruin
you can learn bout essences and lost actions before joining though ...
Hey is there a way to preview dyes from the bot?
yeah, been doing that, but just for my job, but i felt if i ask "hey guys, wtf is rend" they'll kick me lol
if pf is for speed running, explaining anything ... wont happen
especially on aether(?)
aether is that dc kicking people for asking one too many questions in roulette dungeons so ... yknow ... those speed running pfs are gonna be worse
do tanks in delubrum have mayor responsibility than what they usually do in dungeons? because mayor stuff using essences , etc
Should food buffs be used for dungeon runs? If yes, what's the best food for tank and healer?
it's up to you if you have some spare food lying around
but dungeons are easy enough to not matter
MSQ usually showers you with food, eat that
youāre expected to heal yourself for all tbs ... if you cant, you better have some big af dmg essence lost action combos
in farm parties ofc; normal queues are more laxed
yeah just use damage essence any of them to speed things up
unless if you are doing speedrun, might need to read the guide lol

question: I'm stockpiling blue crafters tokens because i need them to exchange for Anima weapon's crystal sand. I assume the exchange of blue token:sand still there, but how I will get more crystal sand in 6.0?
so i been doing containment trials spam. is this efficient? i dont have blu class
use thav mist/enchanted ink, amber vilekin, the ARR extreme crafting materials
Get a BLU, power lvl it to 50/60 (depending on what spells u need)
100 leve allowance may give you like 20 amber

no, both blue gatherer and crafting token is being removed
How necessary is Aetherial Mimicry to spamming coil 2?
Highly likely youāll get kicked not having that >.>
Then yeah, 60 is the minimum for spamming coils
since Aetherial Mimicry is only available from a lv 60 dungeon
we don't know yet if they will introduce the conversions to just buy the stuff with regular scrips
Lv 5 Death too
Rend = damage taken debuff applied by melee derv = damage dealt buff brought by ranged banish = heavy damage taken debuff for undead c4 = applies party wide damage dealt buff in conjunction with deep essence
C4 = cure 4, others as listed
so I made the... unconventional decision to alternatively level all my crafters and gatherers to 80 via turning in items to the grand company, and I'm wondering now whether Ishgard Restoration has anything to offer for my situation? I'm a bit confused on how it works and the wiki makes it confusing
you make collectables for x class with materials gathered from diadem, or purchased from mb
then turn them in for exp and skybuilder's scrips
if they're all 80 then there is not really any reason to do it unless u awnt to go and farm scrips urself
there are still some scrip items that can't be sold on the marketboard
plus achievements
are there any particularly lucrative items from Ishgard Restoration like mounts?
yes
mounts, dyes, minions, glamour items
a fair number of the scrip items can be bought from the marketboard
ok then my followup question is, is making progress in farming for scrips rate-limited?
like I can only do a certain amount in a single day/week
Separate
No
Spam away
hmm ok that's good to know, I'll push it off for the future then
now, I have basically the same questions about custom deliveries
are there useful things from doing those?
you should start custom deliveries as soon as you can since they're weekly limited to 12, which is barely anything
I believe I did see those are limited yea
you get a ton of white scrips for barely any effort
or a ton of exp if you're not 80 yet
also, NPCs say thank you
What hair is this?
do only teh ShB custom deliveries matter at this point, or all of them are still relevant?
all of them are relevant
the ishgard restoration ones supposedly give slightly more scrips
but they all give basically the same amount
Is it heresy to skip Hildebrand cutscenes? I just really want Missle for my BLU
one of the default hairstyles for female lalafel
its a lalafell exclusive nooo
If youāre gonna craft gather etc, you want all of them
doh/dol is entirely optional
Yet entirely purposeful
repairing via DoH is far cheaper than via vendors
and free money via cookies
@last muralim looking to do coil, i have level 50 blu, is this enough?
you need the spells more than anything
but i can't get materia on my armor unless i'm 50 lvl in DoH i'm i missing something i'm new
Materia melder NPCs exist
they are represented on the minimap by a materia+hammer icon
how do you tackle the final phase of boss 1 in Amarout. He drops 3 placable meteor boulders, then things start to rain down. I can survive that, but is kinda confused about what to do.
its no different than the first time he drops meteors, except you're also having to dodge ground aoes
just put yourself in a position where you can get behind one of them quickly but still able to dodge the aoes
If the party doesn't mind u don't have access to Aetherial Mimicry, then sure
every other spell except for Lv 5 Death can be gotten at your lv
you might need help getting Tingle though since the mob that has it is lv 67
do i need flying sardine to power level blue mage in kholusia with some else killing the mobs?
You don't need it, but it helps alot.
It's your only insta-cast GCD which helps with pulling ads while on the move.
if u're gonna get power level'd in the first place, it helps to get the spell by aggro-ing the lv 30 birds in Costa, letting your friend tank it until it casts the spell before finishing it
