Sufficiently high item-level gear can cap both substats when synced down. Similarly, item-level 515 and 535 relics can have substats allocated so that fewer substats are lost to the sync (see !faq ilvlsync for more info on how gear syncing works).
See the calculator below
https://bit.ly/XIVGearSyncCalc
Tanks can instead use their standard gear calc, which supports 70 sync and relics

i just found out i can lvl up blu to 50 in 30 minutes if any lvl 80 helps me, does people form party to help randos to lvl up fast blu? any chance of findhing in pf people helping blus to lvl up ?
You can't do the BLU boost if you're in a party. You have to be independent.
So, can someone explain why SAM needs NINE AoEs in Endwalker?
Is there a way to toggle helmets?

do the odds of learning a BLU spell go up if the enemy uses it multiple times?
no
I meant like Darkside and blood of the dragon
if youre talking about buff upkeep, WAR has damage buff upkeep baked into its 3-part combo, and DRK obviously has darkside. GNB and PLD are more phase-based with their rotations so there's no buff refreshing
How does the second step of FSH's skysteel tool with the oddly delicate components work out time-wise, compared to the previous step?
Yes
Good to know
You can, but you shouldn't
Is there a way to switch the companion as you switch a job?
The haste is a work around for them not letting us get actual power upgrades until after we're effectively done with Bozja
There's no other companion other than the bird
I mean minion lol
where do you find the visual effects for oyur teammates again
You could macro it switch jobs and open the minion menu
But I don't think you could pick a specific one automatically
Yea if you have a macro button for switching jobs you can just have /minion "<insert minion name(no carrots)>" in the command list
/gearset change #
/minion "Slime Puddle"```
change minion name to whatever it is you want tos ummon
Oh thanks
Just know that won't really work for the Minion of Light
That roulettes regardless of what your playing, it doesn't go whm for healer, blm for dps, and fighter/warrior for tank
hey where can I buy furniture in free trial ? is there a guide of some sort ?
not really a point when you can't own somewhere to put it
but you could buy generic furniture from the npcs in the housing districts, I guess?
or craft it if you're dedicated
Is Adralamech (the CLL boss) counted as undead?
Btw do my decisions really affect anything in Zandor or is it all fluff over the eyes as usual?
No
There should be vendors in the "shopping area" of each housing ward. Mists is right next to the beach, Lavender Beds is at the very top of the hill, can't remember where Goblet's is either right across the main bridge, or at the center by the water feature
aight, just wanted to know if lost banish's other effect will work on him
Not really? Maybe just a dialogue change but over all results don't change
gathering job, is staying in diadem to 80 a good idea, i am 61 atm
You can, but you get exp for your first time collecting each material
so i should fly around each stormblood zone until i get all materials atleast once
How the heck are people able to get their characters to lie down on the ground?
For mostly a solo player, would you all recommend Bard or Dragoon?
Either
being solo means nothing
'best solo job' isn't a thing that factors in ever
you have to do group content
With play dead emote probably
I have a question. I doing stormblood questline on ps5 and i have only ARR on pc. Can i play with my ps5 character on pc with limitations or not at all?
Oh
with limitations
but if your character is in a stormblood area you won't be able to log in on PC
I see. Thanks!
The cheaper meme option is to suicide as blu.
Huh lol
Why does recommended gear prefer the second one?
It picks randomly
Would you agree that first is a better pick for BLU?
recommended item does not care about substats btw
Second is better for healing
depends on how you want to play BLU, there are different sets that prioritize different substats
What does determination do?
Dmg and heal increase
I see, direct hit doesn't seem that useful either
as dps blu, crit/dh is your priority
What's the last rank needed for story in bozja, 20?
Oof
yea theres one last raid to do
its insane for first timers but its nice
or at least the last boss is insane
You'll get to 25 quickly though.
indeed
Yeah, I just want to finish it
Question: My class ability is locked at lv 72 even tho the wiki says it's level locked and not quest locked. Details: DRG : [Coerthan Torment lv.72]
Why does dps need direct hit rate?
think of dh as
For a critical direct hit for BEEEEEEG number
tiny crits
Basically another crit?
and criticals as
hmm
crit crits
Mini crits
then you're synced down
but my current lv is 72
currently in Eureka anemos
You're synced
You're lv70
you cant go above 70 in eureka
Not 72
oh wow -_-
because eureka was built for level 70 stuff.
That explains a lot
How much mana does a RDM get when getting raised?
2200? 2000?
Can a RDM pop raise after being raised like 1 mana tick later or two?
You always raise with 2000 mana
I see
20% hp/mp
Depends on piety but not alot in combat
I see, I think piety don’t work for non healer, and it’s 200 mp per tick as base line
I’m just thinking, what should the optimal “rotation” after a RDM stand up be
resume dps then lucid asap
I think something like Super Ether -> swift -> raise -> lucid -> jolt -> raise
I.e. when 4 people are dead and you are being raised as a budget healer Lb 3
Just wipe at that point
Never!
It will take too long and mechanics will kill you before then
plenty of ways to come back by using SMN/RDM raise
never give uppppp
People need to see enrage!
When people says just give up, I refuse!
Data Kotowaru!
But yeah, seriously tho, I like to force a prog keep going
what do i need to buy again to reallocate resistance wep stats along with where and how much?
You know to learn when a pull is over and not to waste time
Like for example e12s shiva prog, after icicle resolves we have a tank a healer 2 DPS left
You're not going to learn mechanics with dead people
A RDM can still force it into “time to learn Titan bombs!”
If you can get everyone up in 6s without dying to raidwide then sure
Otherwise end it
It’s quite a long while for that mechanic I think
You're wasting time
There I’d the boss ride wide damage and Titan raid wide damage
Should be enough time before bombs begin
Healer rez RDM then pop AOE heal, RDM get other 3 people up
how do i type in locations to chat?
4 Aetherial Sealant from Mor Dhona/Idyllshire
If you can get everyone up really quickly while still having resources to mitigate raid wides then ok
100 poetics each
But otherwise it's a dead pull
It's why I stopped progging on rdm
I see
<pos> for your current location, <flag> for where you set your map flag to
...how do i set map flags
Uhhh I’m controller so I can’t tell you unless you’re controller too
got it, ty

I got the preorder earrings, so are all earrings <lv80 basically useless for stats? cuz I'm gonna turn them all in for GC seals
Pretty much, yes
oke ty!
Though for blue mage you still want augmented scaevan/Omega Earring at 70
Since the preorder earring is a bit weaker
gotcha, thanks for the answer
Crit/det for dps...crit/sps for tank/heal
k ty VT
i was thinking SS due to the faster cast, the more DPS, etc.
besides i like to see the casts go quick
Alot of blue dps is in off globals which don't really scale with speed
Only the dots do slightly
Is it really supposed to take what seems like 16 hours to download this game?
!faq quicklauncher
Try this
Thank you my kind sir/maam/they person
Official launcher kinda blows tbh
should I cancel the official launcher? Im afraid if I do that and this one doesn't work I will need to start all over which will just drive me back to the shit game that is WoW
oh f it--I canceled it 🙂
thanks again for your help
What is this? It just says Venture has no tooltip. It at the snake people tribe quest vendor
its the currency used to send your retainers out on ventures
Ah ok
How would i fit six sided star into my rotation? Just.got monk to 80. Should i spam it every change i get???
No
Thanks
Six sided star is for disengaging from the boss for more than 1 gcds worth of time
Because it doubles your gcd recast time
Like a finisher kind of?
Or as a final hit
Finisher is fine if you can't get the combo off
Oh i seeed
(or using the new gap closer Thunderclap in endwalker)
Is there any point of running through the optional arr dungeons I skipped?
I want to do them but if there’s no real reward I’ll wait until after I finish the other msq
Some are additional levelling dungeons
For covering the level gaps when doing alt jobs
Like halatli, cutter cry, dzaemal and Aurum
The 50 dungeons are additional sources of poetics to buy more poetic gear
I think I had to do some of those for the adders
Are there rewards for the hard mode dungeons?
Ok thanks for the help
why cant i need on something that has my class on it?
it like
had DRK in the job list its for
but i could not roll need
it had both DPS and DRK in it
it's maiming gear prob
Cause arr is weird for its gear
It let's dps wear "tank" gear and tank wear "dps" gear
That gear specifically is aimed more at dps and has lower defence values
i have alot of extra extra moogletome due to pvp grind. what do, i already have all the mounts from it too
Rival wings
Feast don’t give?
no
I see, do I need to watch a guide before starting Rival Wings?
has to either be rival wings or frontlines
Only done Frontlines before
should I join parties in progress for df? is it more efficient to level that way if I'm spamming dungeons
ohhh that is wack but makes sense
As DPS, I usually turn it off when I’m manually queueing for dungeons
I personally keep it off cause someone left for a reason
Like, if there isn’t roulette bonus, when doing manual dungeon runs, queueing 20 min then joining a party at the final boss feels bad...
(or disconnected but whatever)
oh does it not make queueing faster
Otherwise, for daily roulettes, I turn it on, don’t seem to have any big problem
It makes queueing slightly faster
oh alright thanks all
I turn it on yeah, I often get into praetorium and castrum when they about to finish
Only somewhat cause you're adding in a few more parties you can enter
msq roulette
oh damn
that cut the run time depending on which part you are in
As in, for example a group needs a DPS, it will pull the front most DPS in queue who choose to join in progress
and you would see a lot of RQ people who just leave cause they lack patience, where you could just save the whole alliance/party when you joined
Feast q is dead anw. You can Q for frontline or RW for moogletomes, 5/3 tomes per win/lose. Frontline is always alive due to the roulette and RW been popping alot lately due to the event.
So yeah, usually around like when your spot is #6 or something, and there are no people in front of you who also have the option on
You can jump in
this is what happen often in WoD alliance roulette, people just quit on cerberus and you just join to save the day
If you join a dungeon where the group is fighting a boss, do you jump in?
You dont
you can join when they wipe
Sad
Do squadron battle manuals stack with fc heat of battle buff?\
Can you only have 1 "for want a memory" active at once?
yeah
No cause it's the same buff
aight
Is it like that with all resistance steps?
Squadron manuals are solo versions of the lv3 fc buffs
can you buy mounts from the website if your using a free trial?
For any relic step
all optional stuff need base game
ok ty
So if I have one currently at that step but want to get the new one past it, what do I have to do?
Meaning you need 5 jobs to hold all quests
Complete it, take the next quest and retake it on another job
Can I cancel it and keep the memories to hand in on the new job?
Yes
Note that you are not capped on the amount of drops you can collect for each step. So although you can only have one quest step active at a time, you can collect enough drops for all your desired weapons while that step is active, then simply turn it in, retake it for the next weapon, turn that in, etc.
Yeah that's why I had this one current open, so I can work on stuff in the meanwhile. As long as there's no quest active for the step I can pick any job at that step to undertake is as then
Yep
Bit of an annoying workaround but there'll be no progress lose on any step if I cancel the quest to undertake it as another right?

is there a way to find out without tp everywhere if there is any houses or apartments available?
Nope
yeah you just have to check constnatly
people are in discords to monitor when any are free/available
anyone know if the xbox one x controller now works with PC?
Who is this again?
That's Foxclon
Global Community Producer... weird role
Hey, whenever I launch the FFXIV launcher my 2nd monitor goes black. How do I fix this.
sounds like your game is in fullscreen
launch the game and swap it to fullscreen windowed
or just windowed
Nah this is just the Launcher
best off asking in #technology-discussion then tbh
So like, what are the differences between each of the three crystal Tower duties?
they're completely different raids with different bosses and mechanics?
not really sure what you're trying to get at
What's the reccomended level to head into pagos with so you can actively participate in fates?
so currently i'm leveling as a rogue (level 29) is there a way to apply trick attack on cool down? or is it one and done and does stealth get better later so i can actually use trick attack in like dungeons? because atm i never get to use it
!action suiton
Deals water damage with a potency of 600.
Additional Effect: Grants Suiton
Duration: 20s
Suiton Effect: Allows execution of actions which require the effect of Hidden, without being under that effect
Mudra Combination: Ten→Chi→Jin or Chi→Ten→Jin
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
do i basically just straight up replace trick attack with that?
Allows the execution of actions which requires suiton
Suiton gives you hidden
do 1 potd run and you'll probably get it
im in leveling roulette rn then getting ninja then back to command missions with squadron
they really need to make leveling better or actually fun at lower levels
its slow af and just a pain overall
Imo, Ninja should get two mudra at lvl 30
Yeah until you get Suiton, TA is pretty useless
But that's a discussion topic
2 at 30 and third at 40?
1 combo at 30, 2 combo at 35 except hyoton but from what i saw thats bad, 3 combo at 45
unless im stupid, bc it seems like hyoton gets boosted at lvl 76
does that mean i should be using hyoton over raiton past lvl 76?
Only when used with Kassatsu
ah i see
As you'll only get that under Kassatsu
thats something i didnt know, and ye, just read that lol
It replaces a Raiton during trick with that
what's so special about chocolate biscuits
😹
Cause they're cheap as fuck to make
ah i see
thanks for the help though 😄
Anyone know the amount on those? sam
Crit > dh > det
You can get that elsewhere if needed

Hello, just a little question. Me and my friends want to play on Diabolos world together in the same company but right now the world Diabolos is full. Any idea when they'll be able to create their character there again please? How long is the restriction gonna be?
!faq serverlock
Standard, Preferred, and New Servers will dynamically open and close themselves from newly created characters depending on how many players are online. To ensure you're able to make a new character on your server try waiting or doing so at a less active time of day.
Congested Servers will not unlock for new players or transfers until Square Enix removes the Congested Status.
Tldr: when people get off late at night/early morning
oooh amazing thank you!
whats the command for blue mage info?
is this for your final step?
just got that

How do you unlock Inscrutable Tastes quest? It says it is in Foundation after doing "The Better Half" (I'm way ahead of that) but I can't find it anywhere. Do I need additional things unlocked for it to show up?

Morgayne is curious whether a talented individual like yourself is familiar with the latest fad.

are you on a disciple of hand/land?
can anyone on primal help me out for a few minutes killing lvl 80 ads on BLU
.......................
thank you so much. oh my god ahaha i can't believe I missed that 😅
For sch, what's the difference between faerie selene and faerie eos?
how exactly does blu boost work?
what do me and any lvl 80 must do exactly for me to fast lvl up?
Hit lv70 mobs outside of a party > they kill it
you tag mobs, your friend murders them
just kill ads
Trying to renew subscription Mogstation looping subscription selection page
IDK why its doing it
Don't kill anything above lv70
being in a party doesn't work?
Exp is nulled if the difference between you and the party member is greater than 10 lvls
so you dont want to be in a party if you're being boosted
Only if you clear a set of 10 does it retain
so on save then
what's that, having someone with more lvls than u makes u get less exp?
Okay I don't understand what's going on here
.
so it can only go up so long as you save
get someone to kill ads with you but dont be in a party
What is the best way (easiest) to grind moogle tomes for the event
What are "Faded Copies" for? Should I just trash them or?
why only lvl 70 adds? I know it's the cap for blu, but why not lvl 80 ads?
Blue mage turn two
Cause they aren't coded for blues xp multiplier
Why blue mage
alchemists can craft them into normal orchestrion rolls
because blue mage can deleted things quickly
anyone on primal wanna BLU boost?
I'm sorry I'm newer. What if a person never used blue mage
Be their tank
Tank for the 7 blues
And just keep the last boss still
Or physical range for peleton
UH..... What? Mogstation wouldn't let me renew the 30 day subscription but it lets me do the 90?
Luckily I have time before it expires but that's still weird
strange
Yeah I don't get it either. I mean my subscription is still good so it wouldn't charge me for the thing and and that would get me through the end of the year so that might be worth doing
yeah personally i just use entry so i can only do one month at a time
Gogo, I canno see anything
a little confused about the star icons in masked carnivale, what do the ones in "bonus details" mean/count for?
You get bonus poetics and seals if you fulfil then
seals are from hunts right? i haven't unlocked hunts, but will i still receive the seals from masked carnivale?
yeah
You also just get them from A & S rank enemies, regardless
arr ng+ is only useful for msq, or also for sidequests?
msq
how do i get the arrows to stop showing?
it doesn't flag
that have been completed
Where do I go to in stormblood for using my tomes
kugane or rhaglr's reach
Kugane for the splendor vend
Character Config -> Display Name Settings -> NPCs -> Housing Furniture
when in Save The Queen some NPCs ||change sides||, do they stop appearing in the first bozja skirmishes where they appeared before?
No, each skirmish and CE is abstained from story changes
It wouldn't make sense to adjust every player's perspective based on what point they were at
so i can still see them if i do those bozja z1 skirmishes again
Yes
nice, I wanted to check their dialogs again and was going to creat an alt only for that lmao
Beating Lyon won't make him disappear from the game completely as an example lol
you've just saved me like 50 hours of gameplay XD
good luck and happy farming

For a PS5 player (controller is why I ask), would you say Bard or Dragoon would have an “easier” time?
Did I just create the wrong item 50 times? I thought I will get Yellow scrips for the master recipe books. Or can I change them somehow
got all my gathers and crafters to 80 is there any point in me getting white scrips/ upgrading since end walker is a month ago
if it helps, many have made the same mistake
:/
please help im so lost
that only lists 8 man
white scrips gears are essentially free so why not? ¯_(ツ)_/¯
i think i found it though one sec
@honest anvil true
Aren't white scrips going yellow in a month anyway?
white scrips are replacing yellow
and a new colour is taking white's place
but that said, getting white scrip gear now will make leveling easier
it's like poetic gear, in a sense
ooo perfect ty
for POTD powerleveling says to spam 51-60
but once I get to 60 it auto goes to 61
how do I set it back to 51
oh got it
Any good guides to crafting HQ items? Not sure if I just lack the stats or if my order is bad.
Is queueing up for Triple Triad something that most don't do? I've been searching for a match for what feels like an hour so far.
so POTD exp stops at 60 and you can start there at level 1?
how does one open the challenge log?
logs menu in the buttons lower-right
most just fight npc in battle hall; some have a friend that deliberately loses to them; few sane persons queue
ah thank you
#doh-dol-lounge has guides and rotations and gears
Unfortunate. I'm really enjoying the game, and the one queued match I did find was fun
there are people in battle hall not minding playing some non tournament matches
usually with a double roulette ruleset. Otherwise, it’s a look-at-my-Cloud card fest
im having trouble getting here i cant climb the mountains
Fly
i cant
Keep doing msq until you can fly
Also do aether currents with the compass
And
in the area
Do high-level alliance raids count towards the tank mounts?
are there are female shorts glams i can get? soemthing like spring bottoms
Depending on your race, hempen pentalletes can look like shorts; especially the hyur one
!aglam female hyur hempel pentalletes
!iglam ramie pantalettes
why do these need the bottom strap D:
Thats about all I know outside mogstation items
is anyone on primal down to help me kill some lvl 70 adds for like 10 mins(so i can lvl blu)
I seldom use shorts
Wouldn’t it be easier to ask in game for someone
where would I ask?
anyone know how long this is going to be down for
a retainer is locked out rn -- feelsbadman
Literally any populated area
ok thx
Can you “over level” in this game? Or am I okay to completely clear every quest I see before moving on?
if you plan on levelling multiple classes there is such a thing as EXP waste in the game. if youre worrying about smashing things too hard in the story, the story will sync your level appropriately for solo encounters / dungeons/ raids / etc.
I just like being a completionist
if you are completionist to the point of wanting 80 everything (soon 90 everything)
I tried using dragoon in higher level content tho I don't find it to be fun, is there a job who is pretty fast paced, while also not dying easily who has cool looking skills
Because dragoon is too fast for me
there is such a thing as "exp" waste. but yeah, if you want to actually just clear quests i wouldnt worry about it too much
So it would be okay to continue doing those side quests?
yeah
Personally I wouldn’t because MSQ and
are way more impactful
but if you just really like story and lore/world building, nothing wrong about enjoying them either
That’s kinda my thing, yeah
I'm using a lvl 1 job and I'm getting 60% extra exp when I don't have any item that gives extra exp, why is that?
you probably have a bonus from the world youre in
Rested exp, armoury bonus. Lots of free exp bonuses in the game
that's the green exp bar, right?
rested bonus, armoury bonus are also possible contributors
Armoury is 100% alrrady at lvl 1
Could be rested and something else
I can't rmb how much rested gives tbh
yes -- will be green if your rested exp bonus exceeds the level you are currently at -- will be yellow if it doesnt exceed
what's armoury bonus, the 2x exp cause another job with higher lvl ?
Yea
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
if its his/her first character there wont be, but yeah most likely
!faq restedexp
'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.
I tried using dragoon in higher level content tho I don't find it to be fun, is there a job who is pretty fast paced, while also not dying easily who has cool looking skills
I assume the armoury bonus doesn't show in the (+60%) I get every time I kill anything, because 60% is less than 100%, right?
Dragoon is just too hard to do mechanics with
It should appear
but if it shows only +60%, then it isn't there
is this your first character?
I didn't answer the first time because I was gonna say every job is cool looking
Drg isn't fast tbh
nop, I have a lot of 80s, this is a blu I'm starting now
Assuming you have a job higher than your current, it will show up for combat xp and potd
Blu doesn't get armoury bonus
Blu is weird
But if you like fast, nin and mch are amongst the fastest paced in terms of button.presses
yeah cool is kinda subjective, and all class doesn't unlock all their skill till 80
but does blu get rested?
Ninja
My guess for 60%, is rested+fc buff
I was kinda thinking of a tank because I love heavy armor
If you want fast, gnb is the fastest paced tank
Otherwise tanks just dint have that much buttons presses for dmg
Gotcha, ty
Mnk has a naturally faster gcd eventually
So that might be considered fast pace as well
Dammit brd
how much % is the rested?
nice, thxs
Might be wrong tbh
maybe XDD I remember fc leader said he wasn't using fc bonus for exp until ew lol

what items obtainable inside the game (not mog station) give me extra exp, besides brand new ring? (already got the Friendship Circlet and ew preorder earring too).
Items wise thats about it
Bozja earrings give 10%
But its obsolete for exp since you have menphina
is there anything special for fast lvl up blu (besides the use-a-lvl-80-friend), or just the usual fates up to lvl 15 and then queue dungeons, and roulettes?
Don't do fates
I haven't even started squadrons yet, I guess it'll take me some hours
can blu enter roulettes, use df for dungeons?
Cant queue for roulettes
Look up weskalber leveling Blu guide
You can enter dungeons, via undersized party, or + level synced for spells
You don't wanna use it for exp
Just get onto the overworld and kill stuff 2 or 3 levels higher than you
And keep the exp chain going f you can
Also buy boiled egg X 999 and eat it all the time
That's about it for exp boost stuff
nice, thxs.
its a little long (50+ mins) u know if is there a text version?
Anyone know where I can kill creatures level 27?
water better
and cheaper iirc
You dont have to watch it all in one sitting
Watch the portions relevant to you fir now
And go back to it
The text guides I've come across always asks you to get boosted 
theres a lot to keep track of for blue mage, since you need both locations and spells to level
So I have a level 79 AST and a level 70 Summoner, I haven't done my WT yet so I'm wondering if it's better to use it on my AST or Summoner
You get a guaranteed half a level
It’s half a lvl
Regardless of level
so would it be more valuable to use it on my summoner so I can get them into Bozja/Zadnor as soon as my AST is 80?
Yes
aight
Many people will be using khloe books to hit 71 on the new jobs instantly on expansion day
could just buy 10 whole lvls with 25 bucks on expansion day
You can't do that for new jobs
blu job quests give exp?
Does rested exp work on professions?
yes
wait really? cant you boost gunbreaker like.. 10 lvls right now if u really wanted.. not that its great value
Nope
Gnb/dnc boosts don't exist yet
But will in endwalker
Same will apply to RPR/sge
why do gnb have a boost while we're still in shb
it doesnt
.
do i need to do the blu job quests if i just wanna get to lvl 50 and get 1 skill to farm t2 ? those job quests give good exp?
Yes cause the 50 quest unlocks the carnival for Moon flute
The blue mage solo content t
You need moon flute
It's 50% dmg up
Whistle, Tingle and off guard on their own fall abit short unless you get good crit rng
are those 3 skills the ones I'll use in farming t2 ?
With the luminous crystals in the anima step, can you obtain more than one? To save for future ones
well theres around 6 that make t2 go really fast
Is anyone able to trade me 2 empty cluster? I need it for aetherial wheel. Let me know how much gil you want if you have a few to spare
yep
Is using macros for things like crafting kosher? Or is it technically a bannable offense?
should be fine since macros are a part of the game
bannable stuff is usually third party stuff that doesnt already come with the game
but from what ive seen, they dont really care unless youre harassing people bc of said 3rd party stuff (ie dps parsing and telling people theyre bad)
OK, thank you
Why is bis for tea, hero's gauntlet ? Why Wouldn't you just get higher ilevel gear then let it sync down
!faq ultimatesync
Sufficiently high item-level gear can cap both substats when synced down. Similarly, item-level 515 and 535 relics can have substats allocated so that fewer substats are lost to the sync (see !faq ilvlsync for more info on how gear syncing works).
See the calculator below
https://bit.ly/XIVGearSyncCalc
Tanks can instead use their standard gear calc, which supports 70 sync and relics
https://bit.ly/TankDPSCalc520
Cause current gear won't cap both substats
Meaning you lose substats
Vs melded 470/475
😫 why can't mmos be simple
You usually don't worry about this stuff until you get to Ultimate level
is kholusia lv 70 mobs w/ a friend the fastest way to level blu from 60-70?
yes
Can you get Moogle tomestones by doing duties unsynced?
no
Is there a website that will use an API to show what trials I have unlocked and what I need?
Just started Bozja. I have 320 mettle, but when I talk to the commander, he says something about looking forward to hearing of my exploits, but nothing happens; my rank doesn't increase. What am I missing?
Do squadron AI follow commands in order of input or is that just delay?
Ya just need more mettle. iirc there's a "this is the mettle you need before you can rank up" number just below your actual mettle.
So I actually need 620 mettle?
...wait no
You might need to progress more in the bozja story.
because you should be able to rank up?
Maybe I need to finish For Want of a Memory?
Do the blue quests inside bojza
Not want of memory
The blue quests in the camp
They unlock different facilities
And teach you about the zone
Well I have another one from the historian, but I came to ask about it because I saw it gives mettle, and I don't know if there's a mettle cap
The cap is 25mil
oh ok, that might be it, then
You're meant to do those quests
Thanks guys o/
heyo, im new on the trial.
Im just thinking, i already have 6k gil I should just go ahead use it for teleporting everywhere.
Running succcks. no big deal eh
Yeah you’ll keep getting a decent amount of Gil from the story
Always attune
So teleporting often stops being a concern fairly fast
how does one play gun breaker what am i supposed to be doing
Do gatherers benefit as much from Firmament? I'm only doing crafters right now.
diadem's alright to use for leveling
lets you be lazy as stat requirements aren't that high and you can gather mats for your crafters
so you're killing birds with one stone
but leves/collectables are far better exp
Collectables?
Custom deliveries
the house of splendor turn ins, they're 50+ stuff
not specifically custom delivieries, but they do fall under collectables
OK, thank you
I'm in a pyros instance where only 6 people left
and I got killed by the flame voidragon
how can i invite people outside the instance to the instance i'm in to res me?
so they don't enter other pyros instance
is it possible?
You can't
rip in pepperoni, ty ty
Usually when an instance is dead the game puts people in a more active one anyway, so it would be a long shot for a random to find you
If i'm understanding things right, i can only get 1 item per week from the 3rd Yorha dungeon?
No
Gunbreaker is a tank, so the same general principles as the other tank classes. You have a primary single-target or aoe damage chain which you use to maintain aggro control (with your stance on, of course). Align your burst damage with your buffs when possible, cycle mitigation skills to reduce incoming damage for you and/or the party.
Weekly lockout isn’t a thing anymore for Nier raids
oh
Can anyone help me understand what the Ostensibly Special Timeworn Map is for I don't understand
What do you get for farming these?
Alot of gil, materia, random mats, materia and exclusive crafting mats
you'll unlock how to dig at lv 30ish MSQ
Side quest
that's what this map's for
Do I always learn a blu spell when I'm attacked with it?
So the aggro can be to another player
if its open world, tis rng
if its instance, you can 100% learn it assuming you do the content sync'd
can't I go dungeon unsync for learning?
can the aggro be to another player and I still learn it? I think that's the only way to only see it, but I remember the game saying I need to have aggro
you need to have attacked it at the very least to learn it
but you don't need to be hit by the spell
oh, ok, so have some aggro, but not all aggro
Contribute to the fight, that’s correct
duty finder say blu can only enter dungeon when performer or undersized party.
What's performed party?
Party finder
well not strictly party finder
can have some blu and some non blu, or 100% blu is a must?
it just means the group is pre-made and not using duty finder to fill in the slots
can be mix of blue and non blue
doesnt have to be a full blue group
Unless you’re doing blu logs
only time a full blue is required, afaik, is if you're chasing the achievements or doing blue logs
yeh
Pretty much
ALL dungeons have spells for blu to learn?
No
Can anyone help me power level my blue mage? Im looking to get it to 60 for the tomb cheese
Any help would be greatly appreciated !
is there a blu discord, where blus gather to learn together?
You can make a PF mentioning the spell you need to learn
hi
i would be curious to this as well
anybody knows if i can renew my suscription thorugh steam?
No, it’s mogstation like always
ouch, steam starter pack has lower prices..
yeah, I'm doing it, but I wanna know if there is a discord, with tons of people doing blu stuff, that'd be a lot faster

Can Free Trial use a PF or no?
you can join pfs, but not make them
Alrighty
does doing the msq roulette multiple times and getting prae give me like 5 mil exp each time or only the first
rip
Is the daily bonus always the same (at the level you’re at) or does it alter the dungeon reward itself?
depends on your level
you'll get more the higher level you are
and you'll want the bonus from the roulette, not from the instance itself
so if you are lv 79 and you get sastasha from leveling roulette, you will still get plenty of exp
So I won’t be gimped getting a lower leveled dungeon roulette? Nice
It is always worth your while to do them
yeah, it's an incentive to help lower level player progress their new character
The only thing you want to take note of is leveling roulette can give you 4 players Titan, Ifrit, and garuda
your ilvl and level will be sync'd down to the dungeon level, but you'll rewarded with plenty of exp in the end
I haven’t really noticed much exp from guildheist roulettes, what about that?
Those will give relatively less bonus exp, because they are shorter content
Not all roulette are good for exp
Leveling, msq, and alliance (I'm told Frontline too) are good for exp
Trials and raids are not bad
blu from lvl 20 to 70, how long does it take with help of a lvl 80?
wait
i remember doing it from lv 1 with a person I met in NN, both take us 3 hourish
do u have a 70 or 80 char?
we can just help each other
then swap classes
Im in aether
then you could level together
ok, I'm going to your limsa , gimme 5 minutes
okok
Khell Baes@Siren
kk
does the motorcyle still naturally go faster than other mounts?
Where's the best place for boos level up blu, in the last SB area?
idk im going in sequence from a video
the loch, ahm areng and kholusia beach
the first thing is to grab a certain skill i think
anywhere you see a group of lv 70 you could tag, provoke and burst down with aoe
I did mine in Kholusia beach
@wheat plume im Cyber Frog
It has Tier 1 ground speed, meaning if you haven't gotten time via story yet (or buying it for Shadowbringers zones), it is faster on the ground
ahh ok ty! so i can use it to go around ew areas epic
wait, i thought the bike didn't get an advantage in shadowbringer zones, since you innately have the 'first improvement' right from the start?
that's a bit unfair, since it basically gives you riding maps right from the start?
also that ruins their 'explanation' that the bike would look weird traveling at slow speed
it’s more unfair that you pay real money to get only that …
since the default speed in ShB is not slow
There are question marks in the list. Which dungeon do I not have unlocked?
if my friend scenario skip heavensward and sb will they get the free mounts?
you still get the unique items you get directly from quest rewards, i've been told
as in, items you cannot get any other way
azim steppe quests give you one for example
oh that yol, should be
You get the Magitek armour, manacutter and yol yes
And the other one
You don't get the 1st upgrade innately. Although its easy to get just requiring you to lvl shared fate per zone once and turn in the bicolor gem stones
1st upgrade as in speed comparable to '1st upgrade' in the rest of the game
So for bike owners, the riding map is useless
and you get that innately in shadowbringers
How do you unlock ARR extremes?
a quest from uberdanger at waking sands
I don't think there is one there
after you finish the level 50 version of the trial
I unlocked hards
synced?
which quest?
The hard modes
I think so
Ifrit Bleeds, We Can Kill it
In for Garuda Awakening
In a Titan Spot
And the other 2?
then you should go to waking sands and pick up "Primal Nature" from urianger
Next is Garuda then ifrit
from Vorsaile in gridania, unlocks garuda ex
I think I have to do Gale-force Warning next
We just said that
they're unlocked in sequence
That's not in waking sands
Read
the waking sands quests sends you there
.
also you can always just go to this page https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Trials
click into the unlock quest and see its prerequisites

yes it is one of the prerequisites, find your position in the quest chain and follow that
I've done that
then do the next one
New Gridania (X:9, Y:11)
They’re close enough
you can edit the wiki
They're not close
I can see it in the pic
So once you unlock treasure hunting, where do you get the maps?
there, i edited the wiki page to have more precise coordinates
mining/botanist nodes and fishing with the buff on
Thanks
TY
Otherwise you have to look at every quest in the area
note that the level of the node decides which type of map will drop from it
and stop trusting every coordiante in the wiki
time taken to post that screenshot then ask then complain feels longer than just … go the closest quest .
If you mouse over the quest, it says the name...
wow the time not going to that quest is still adding up
theoretically this shouldn't have been required as the previous quest sends you directly to this dude
Grabbing blue quests as you see them? Crazy
It didn't, there was no marker to follow
Anyway questions answered
and I went away
Moving on
what's the next spell I should be using for mob clearing as BLU after 1000 needles
Same area too
ideally you want choco meteor, but that's from a level 53 mob
oke thank you!
choco meteor is 300 potency as long as you have your bird out
what are the best gold saucer games
still in post arr 😅
a good solo leveling strategy for BLU is to find a spot with mobs slightly above your level that has a lot of them in close proximity, pull like at least 5 of them, crowd control them with something like ram's voice and mind blast when they're immune to freeze
and just keep blasting
i also used sticky tongue to grab them from around the camps without the other ones leashing back to their spawn point
make sure your chocobo is set to healer stance
how in the world is a level 60 BLU supposed to be able to solo the extreme primals?
ram voice or plaincracker both works right?
ram's voice turns the enemies off for 12 seconds, then 6, then 3
basic instinct, mighty guard, aetherial mimicry
like how do I do extreme Titan? he puts me in gay baby gaol and I die
need to get that aetherial mimicry
Aetherial Mimicry is ez to get solo
yeah, that's the first thing you should get
as long as u have Ram's Voice and Ultravibration
and basic instinct if you want to solo instance
mimicing a tank gets you TONS of defense
A video part of my short guide on how to get started as a fresh BLU by learning some of the key spells solo, in this case Aetherial Mimicry.
The guide is here https://docs.google.com/document/d/12Tbfy_qviiulnN63620Oc-QRTg3tDjAHrluF7FvddbA/edit?usp=sharing
what's wrong with free stance?
he keeps using attacks instead
what would you like more, for him to do like tiny nibbles on one of the enemy
or him to keep spamming choco cure at you
Both
healing stance lets him just spam choco cure without wasting GCDs on attacks
I can have chocobo in trials?
No
at what level should I be moving to 220 potency aoe instead of 1000 needles?
lv 45/50+
whenever you see it doing more damage
ahh oke
lower if you're aoe pulling
at lv 45, enemies that survive 2 thousand needles start appearing
still at 37 but its taking really long 😅
at lv 50, there are those that even survive 3
using thousand needles is mind numbing
yeah...
Its cast time is so long
I basically use this macro, and alt tab to watch youtube videos while the combo is running
and then the crowd control spell misses and you tab over to seeing your corpse
my chocobo will heal me
i use a window that covers half my screen, so it's no problem as well
should I be using mighty guard for mob farming without 1000 needles?
they hurt quite a lot
You’ll do less damage
