that is wholey depedent on your mouse's software

[grand pecan]

@neat patrol basically just look up spells for blue mage and always have your chocobo out on tank role while the monstwr casts its special magic.then kill it and you will learn new spells.

[neat patrol]

I think BLU is the only job I have yet to ever see a player as in my playtime

[carmine oriole]

i'm using g502

[cursive ridge]

you've seen em.

[cursive ridge]

you just don't know you've seen them

[midnight tinsel]

i mean partyfinder is full of them

especially now

with t2 farm

[neat patrol]

So, On BLU, You don't necessarily kill the enemies for skills, you just...watch them?

[midnight tinsel]

you kill them

[solemn jewel]

u kill them after u saw em do stuff

[midnight tinsel]

you just dont need to get hit

[left whale]

well, an easy way is to have 2 profiles, one for FF14 and one for general use
and then you can just switch between the 2 profiles

im pretty sure the mouse itself is smart enough to automatically switch modes depending on software, however ive never used this feature (irts something you gotta configure manually meh)

[grand pecan]

@neat patrol yes and no you watch first then kill

[cursive ridge]

if i equip full scaevan on my DRK, i get 5791 defense, which is basically equal to BLU in scaevan with aetherial mimicry: tank

[grand pecan]

well i need help

[cursive ridge]

sure you don't get tenacity and extra vitality scaling and the tank passive as BLU

[left whale]

wats their health pool like again?

[carmine oriole]

ah, something i never bother to try, might as well give it a spin

[cursive ridge]

under Devour, pretty comparable

[carmine oriole]

thank you!

[neat patrol]

How a BLU learns to use a gun: "Ok, You stand there, you stand there, and now, show me" BANG "I see...hmm... ok...take some notes...yep...I got it now...Well, We gotta get out of here before the police come"

[left whale]

goddamn devour

[grand pecan]

@neat patrol blu has instant kill spells like doom and tailscrew

[cursive ridge]

@left whale also they have Diamondback which is just funny

!action diamondback

[zinc orbit]

**Diamondback** : lvl 1 BLU (3000 MP) (2.5 second cooldown)(2.0 second base cast time)

Reduces damage taken by 90% and nullifies most knockback and draw-in effects.
Unable to move or take action for the duration of this effect.
Duration: 10s
If used when Waxing Nocturne is active, its effect will transition immediately to Waning Nocturne.
The effect of this action cannot be ended manually.

Blue Magic

Diamondback weaves earth-aspected aether into a hard mineral shield, mimicking what many describe as the “maddening” effect of shelled dragons' carapaces. Alas, though its defensive properties are superlative, its weight makes it impossible for the caster to move while under its aegis.

[left whale]

i love diamond back

[neat patrol]

Like, Big damage, or, they have a specific requirement that guarantees an instant kill?

[left whale]

i use it generously to escape death in blu learning parties
cuz god knows nobody has raise learned

fuckni hell

[grand pecan]

@neat patrol only one requirement is the mob or boss needs to be lower level .jut a single level lower is ok

[cursive ridge]

raise needs 100 spells learned and that's not trivial

[neat patrol]

Damn

[obsidian patio]

no

[left whale]

thats a big foqing problem cuz people who die tend to stay dead

[obsidian patio]

!action angel whisper

[zinc orbit]

**Angel Whisper** : lvl 1 BLU (1000 MP) (300.0 second cooldown)(10.0 second base cast time)

Resurrects target to a weakened state.
This action does not share a recast timer with any other actions.

Blue Magic

The origin of this revitalizing spell is steeped in mystery, as it requires healing aether be amplified through a familiar that appears for all the world to be a messenger from the heavens─a concept soundly at odds with Whalaqee religious beliefs.

[grand pecan]

doom -once you cast it on a mob it only has 15 seconds to live while tailscrew reduces the targets health to single digit

[left whale]

nope, never learned that either

[cursive ridge]

oh, my bad

[grand pecan]

soo anyone one of you doing a spell farm for blue mages?

[cursive ridge]

i've yet to play with another person as BLU and i'm at 73/104 spells

and i still have a bunch of easy ones to learn

[grand pecan]

@cursive ridge im at lvl54

[cursive ridge]

i leveled solo

[grand pecan]

same

leveling solo

but i need some primal spells to complete 20 carnivals

to get doom

[cursive ridge]

you don't

the only primal spell i had for the longest time was ifrit

[grand pecan]

@cursive ridge i know but it is really hard.im dying super fast

[cursive ridge]

and even that is non-essential

heal yourself more, avoid attacks

use diamondback for oneshots

[grand pecan]

@cursive ridge i dont have diamondback

[cursive ridge]

go get it from final steps of faith

[obsidian patio]

normal steps of faith

not final

[cursive ridge]

i thought that was the name for it

[obsidian patio]

final steps of faith is the HW trial

[cursive ridge]

oh, final is a different instance entirely

[grand pecan]

still what spells would yall recommend for masked carnival

[obsidian patio]

extremely dependent on what stages you're doing

[cursive ridge]

any 220 potency spell will do for damage, white wind is fine for healing, diamondback to avoid oneshots. some stages require specific spells like sticky tongue or knockback effects to reposition stuff or Loom to teleport away

2. Blue Mage Spell Learning Guide
3. Masked Carnivale Guide
4. A More Comprehensive BLU Guide
5. BLU Solo Leveling Guide

[cursive ridge]

some enemies are immune to some elements, so you'll have to use other damage spells

[last mural]

Would recommend just checking out tips for each stage by stage. Each stage either has u fight enemies outright, requires certain elemental spells to be effective, or just has a gimmick to perform, like using sticky tongue to pull enemies to a bomb.

There is no fixed spell list to run for all stages

[cursive ridge]

yeah for one stage you need a sleep spell for example

(which you'll get for free as EW caster role action so don't have to spend a slot on acorn anymore)

[verbal herald]

is the 26th maintenance when the moogle event ends ?

[leaden ginkgo]

How do you reeanble duty dialogue in log?

I think I turned that off but can't remember

[restive yarrow]

Do I need to be doing a hunt for the elite marks to spawn? I need one for blu

[cursive ridge]

have they removed some stuff from MGP prize exchange? garlandtools lists this https://www.garlandtools.org/db/#item/17172
as coming frmo the prize exchange but it's not on there. wiki lists the only two sources as Campaign attendant 2018 and 2019, which is make it rain event vendor i believe

[cursive ridge]

B marks are always present in the zone

[hot eagle]

that is the glam version(lvl1) of the pvp garo mch weapon the version from wolfsmark was for lvl60 ilvl255 and you could only buy it if you got the lvl60 first

[obsidian patio]

no, the release of endwalker is when the event ends (november 19th)

[cursive ridge]

oh, so even the pvp version is no longer obtainable? that is so sad, it's pretty much the only smol gun

[hot eagle]

yeah cant get garo stuff anymore

[restive yarrow]

i see, thank you

[grand pecan]

@cursive ridge btw any ideas how i can get eruption from ifrit?ive been farming him for a while but no success

[cursive ridge]

do it synced, 100% chance

[grand pecan]

synced ok .ill try

[cursive ridge]

get basic instinct and mighty guard and you should be fine

you can do the level 24 ifrit solo synced no problem

[grand pecan]

well ive not been fine actually .i did those two as well but he always deals more damage before i can cast white wind

[cursive ridge]

are you doing the boss tactics

you need to kill nails

[grand pecan]

@cursive ridge i know i kill nails

[frosty kelp]

Are gathering rotations a thing or is there a way to gather more at level 80?

[obsidian patio]

basically just Pick Clean

Can also use Bountiful Yield/harvest in combination if it's an item that doesn't appear all the time on the node

[frosty kelp]

oh nice. i have been using Blessed Harvest II

[grand pecan]

got eruption

[limpid matrix]

Sorry i have question
After clearing post HW story do we unlock firnament?

[obsidian patio]

after patch 3.3 story

which will have a story trial instance

[limpid matrix]

Ah okay thank you

[cursive ridge]

@grand pecan i just went to doublecheck and only used water cannon, white wind, mighty guard, basic instinct and lucid dreaming against the level 20 synced ifrit and absolutely blasted him to smitherins

huh, i was just flying over a FATE in outer la noscea and it made a different sound for FATE Joined

what's that all about? seems to be just a regular fate

[last mural]

I assume it's the FATE in front of the mines? Yeah, idk why that regular FATE uses the same sound as super FATES

[cursive ridge]

dang went to record it but it recorded without the sound

yeah, stopping the shakes

it's not even the super fate sound

it's a completely different sound

it sounds more beast tribe-sy

[last mural]

Well either way, i think those FATES in outer la noscea are an exception

[hot eagle]

its an old fate you needed to do for the unlock quest chain for the lvl50 alliance raids, before they made it easier

[vivid bough]

are there people who just hoard referral codes

[gentle elm]

why is my carbuncle doing barely any damage with gust

[honest anvil]

probably cause … low level is only supposed to do that much ..

[hot eagle]

gust is aoe dmg so its lower

[honest anvil]

also since you are expected to cast ruin + bio/ miasma too, pet’s auto has to be mild to keep things in check

[gentle elm]

i see thank you

it just feels a little underwhelming

[honest anvil]

eventually you wont even notice pet’s auto ..

since you’ll be too busy doing other things

[obsidian patio]

your level 15 summon will be better damage for single target

so that'll be a notable increase in damage

and then at 30 you get your proper single-target pet, as the level 15 one is more for self-sustain

[cursive ridge]

and all that is going to change in a month

[gentle elm]

aight im thinking of going to lvl 15 arcanist then trying out rouge

[thin vale]

why is the lv 30 GLD quest so ridiculously hard wtf

[patent citrus]

yeah, just change weapon and later job stone

[thin vale]

I honestly don't get it

[ivory grotto]

first of all what gear are you using?

o.O

[last mural]

How many glowing gunblades are there so far? Just 3 (ShB relic, Shinryu, Epic of Alexander)?

[patent citrus]

https://youtu.be/1twPirTbvQg?t=949

[barren granite]

when does FR judging end for the week ?

[obsidian patio]

weekly reset

!weekly

[zinc orbit]

Tick, Tock, Kupo!

Time Until Weekly Reset:

23 hours, 17 minutes, 51 seconds

[barren granite]

sweet, thought i missed it

ty

[thin vale]

even in the vid he almost dies jeebus

[honest anvil]

also hades’, and shb relic has multiple glowing stages ig

[cursive ridge]

and @hot eagle , i recorded it, sounds so funky

[last mural]

Hmm, Hades gunblade looks a little too... messy
But i forgot about relic stages. I didn't like the Gunblade's final form, but i do like the Recollection form

Thanks

... ooof... that means getting the Gunblade relic to augmented law stage

[barren granite]

hmm weird, ive done that one and never noticed .. have to check it out

[honest anvil]

the hoh gunblade glows too

[cold river]

can you change a FC house to a personal house or vice versa?

[honest anvil]

e8s gunblade somewhat glows …

blue spirit gunblade looks nice

[last mural]

Not a fan of the aetheryte weapons. e8s i haven't gotten there yet. blue spirit gunblade looks kinda ugly to me

[honest anvil]

also i misremembered e8s gunblade. It doesn’t glow so skip it* xD

[obsidian patio]

nope

you'd need to relinquish ownership of the plot and manage to buy it back as a personal house

[cold river]

kk thank you

[vivid bough]

sprout question inc but when the chat log says I earned X marauder XP, and I have my WAR job stone on, am I still advancing WAR?

[last mural]

is buying a home permanant?

[last mural]

Yes

WAR is basically Marauder with a soul stone equipped and the name changed

It's also why when a SCH earns ACN exp, SMN also gains that exp

because both SCH and SMN are actually just the same ACN with a different name

[vivid bough]

okay cool, so that's just how jobs w/ stones work?

aka lancer w drg, and so on

[lilac mason]

yeah, just a name change and more skills

also artifact gear which can only be equipped by the job version, mostly for glam

[modest igloo]

there used to be differences back in ARR and HW but it was jank as all hell

[obsidian patio]

no, you need to enter it every 45 days to keep it

[last mural]

Ah...

if u lose it, do u have to pay to get it again?

[obsidian patio]

yes

but you do get most of the gil back if you reclaim the possessions within 45 days or so of the plot being auto-demolished

[leaden granite]

is there a site/tool where i can put in a crafting item and it breaks it down to all the gathering parts?

[dapper oyster]

does getting 100 pts in fashion will give you more MGP?

[obsidian patio]

garland tools

[cursive ridge]

do WHM use Medica I?

[obsidian patio]

no

[leaden granite]

nice ty

[obsidian patio]

not really at 80, unless you need immediate aoe healing and cure 3 won't do due to distance, and you don't have lily stacks to use afflatus rapture

[leaden granite]

is there an option that garlandtools automatically breaks the craft into its core gathering parts or do i have to manually click myself through the menus?

[obsidian patio]

you'll have to go to the sub-menu every time

you can also use teamcraft as an alternative, though I'm not familiar with that site outside of its crafting simulator

[leaden granite]

Already checked teamcraft, doesnt seem to have such an option, or i cant find it at least

ah well that blows a bit, ty anyway

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there a way i can buy my friend a sub fee ? without putting visa and to much informations ?

[worn flume]

buy a game time card

and give them the code

[leaden ginkgo]

dont have 30 days ?

its just 60 days

[worn flume]

[leaden ginkgo]

ok thanks

[wispy basalt]

after pre-order ew SE still didn't get the money is that ok ?

(first time pre-order stuff)

[worn flume]

SE will charge you when the expansion releases

[frosty kelp]

how come the leves reward change sometimes? what triggers this and how do i maximze the rewards i get

[wispy basalt]

are you sure ?

[worn flume]

yes

[wispy basalt]

so if my card is zero then money will be negative ?

[worn flume]

probably

[wispy basalt]

Debit card *

welp thanks for the help

[solemn jewel]

You can pay now

There is a link in ur confirmation email

[solemn jewel]

Yea

[wispy basalt]

Thanks

[obsidian patio]

random, basically.

[frosty kelp]

if i wait, can i get a different reward

[obsidian patio]

You might be able to "reroll" the rewards by abandoning the leve and grabbing it again, but it wastes an allowance.

if you can, then it's waiting like 12 hours or so when you get more leves from the timers menu

[barren granite]

so what happens if we cancel, do we keep the preorder bonus' ?

oh nm, use the pay now link

[obsidian patio]

you can't cancel after paying for it

[barren granite]

ya i didnt read the whole answer

[cursive ridge]

i just had a cutscene pronounce bozja as boz-ya, i thought that was a hard j

[barren granite]

i thought it was pronounced Booze - Yeah !

[pallid hearth]

I pronounce it Bozz Ja

Like Ja in German lol

[cursive ridge]

i thought it J as in Jam

or rather

hm

damn it can't come up with an example in english

here, like 's' in 'erosion'

[solemn jewel]

So just. Sh?

Shelf?

Bow-shah

[cursive ridge]

no

[meager herald]

whats a good high quality mining rotation

working on skysteel

[cursive ridge]

in Japanese it's ボズヤ or "bohz yah"

[barren granite]

decent thread on the meaning of it and where ist'may' derive from ... given the context.

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/hxlufu/an_observation_regarding_bozjas_name/

[cursive ridge]

sounds a lot like bosnia

ah, apparently that's intentional since hrothgar seem to be south slavic

[barren granite]

it is a word in bosnian language i guess

[spiral mango]

anyone can explain stone sky sea? and diadem ? what are the benefits of doing such things

[barren granite]

Bozhya

[cursive ridge]

training dummy

[cursive ridge]

see, i'm russian and in that word it makes a different sound

[spiral mango]

making sure u can output enough dps before going inside the actual trial then ?

[cursive ridge]

yeah, sort of

[spiral mango]

i see

[cursive ridge]

i feel like the game wants me to say 'бозья' instead of 'божья', if that makes sense to you in russian

[barren granite]

ah ya. nope 🙂

[solemn jewel]

Well apparently it is bozya, which frankly sounds bad

[barren granite]

what is this letter ? ж

[solemn jewel]

Zh

[cursive ridge]

it's usually transliterated as zh

[barren granite]

ok that makes sense ya

its would be nice if we had letter for that sound heh

instead of 2 or 3

[cursive ridge]

best i can come up in english is 's' in 'erosion'

[barren granite]

ya that s to me is like J

ero jion

well ero zjion

lol

man im gonna be thinking about this all day now lol

[barren granite]

abrasion is another one i guess

which reminds me i still need to save the queen heh

i been lazy on it. Think the EW will have a eureka > Bozja equivalent ?

[spiral mango]

and diadem is like bozja ?

i was basically wondering what all of these are

[cursive ridge]

diadem is for gathering/crafting

it's a place that gets you mats for ishgard restoration

[compact magnet]

Hello, this is the place to ask noob questions?

[barren granite]

yes sir

[compact magnet]

COol 🙂 is it smart to buy game now, or wait for release of next xpac?

got my pala closing to 60

[solemn jewel]

are u playing the trial rn?

[modest igloo]

are you finished with 3.5 msq?

[compact magnet]

yes

[compact magnet]

not yet

[modest igloo]

then yeah i'd wait

[compact magnet]

cheers 🙂 next one - If I want to aim at tanking raids, PLD is right choice?

[cursive ridge]

any tank can do any content

[modest igloo]

any and all

[compact magnet]

😮 no BiS? My WoW soul is crushed

[jade quartz]

Jobs are balanced here

!faq meta

[zinc orbit]

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

[jade quartz]

Tanks are the most balanced of all

[cursive ridge]

this game is 98% execution of your job, 2% job-specific things

[compact magnet]

oh boi DRK here I come

next one - doing gathering jobs is worth anything in trial now? or is it simplier later on?

[pallid lance]

Kinda related but if there was an official localization for FFXIV in Russian, would names be Declined? How would they write Uldah?

[cursive ridge]

not sure i understand the question

Ульда?

[pallid hearth]

Is this the right channel to ask macro question too?

[modest igloo]

its still about the same, since ishgard restoration can be unlocked in the free trial

its just leves for 1-60

[pallid hearth]

I have this macro
/hotbar display 7 on /wait 5 /hotbar display 7 off

[cursive ridge]

you have a space on line 1

in front of /

[pallid lance]

like uhh

would it be written as

"Лалафеллы в Улде"?

[compact magnet]

Thanks everyone, will be back later 😗

[pallid hearth]

Problem is, when the hotbar is up sometimes it gets stuck. It won't come dissappear and I have to click on the macro once again

[cursive ridge]

probably? what's wrong with that? they might choose different words for common terms

[glacial ore]

If I buy the complete edition of ff14 while in he free trial does the 30 subscription that comes with it start or once I
Finish the free trial?

[wispy galleon]

I need a 3rd printed figure of my Main char! Is there a way to get that without having to pay an arm and a leg for it?

[pallid hearth]

Oh, there's no space in the macro tho

[solemn jewel]

u cant "finish" the trial, ur locked out of trial as soon as u put in a code for a bought game

[obsidian patio]

probably not, if you want one with good quality

custom figurines can be expensive

[inland pasture]

Can you get moogle tombstones if you clear a dungeon with undersized party on?

[barren granite]

so is the Battle scarred veteran just aDPS trial or DPS check ? Does it serve any other purpose ?

[obsidian patio]

no

[modest igloo]

nope

[glacial ore]

So once I purchase I am now playing the full game and the subscription takes place?

[solemn jewel]

Yep

[jade quartz]

don't need a separate line for the wait command, it can be done at the end of the preceding line like this /hotbar display 7 on <wait.5> /hotbar display 7 off

[solemn jewel]

The trial has no ending, ur playing it as long as u dont register a code for the game

[glacial ore]

So would it be worth for me to finish the free trial then buy the game?

[solemn jewel]

if you want to

[pallid hearth]

Thanks! I'll try it and see if the performance is better

[obsidian patio]

basically it loads up a striking dummy with HP based on the selected trial and the job you are, and you have to kill it within 3 minutes

[jade quartz]

won't make a performance difference

just saves lines

[wispy galleon]

indeed I could paint it myself tho but I have no experience with 3d printers don't even know how to get one working

[jade quartz]

not really important unless you have a lot of lines

[obsidian patio]

it in theory serves as a test of how good you are at your class, but in practice there's various issues with Stone Sky Sea

!faq sss

[zinc orbit]

Why Stone, Sky, Sea is a bad metric to measure DPS

1. SSS does not account for a job’s RDPS contribution via skills like Battle Voice
2. SSS is a 3 minute burst window where you adjust your rotation to fit in that period and does not reflect a realistic raid scenario
3. Different jobs will be in peaks and troughs of their burst windows
4. Different jobs have different SSS dps requirements
5. SSS is not accurately tuned for the jobs they are supposed to represent in most cases
6. 3 minutes is short enough to be able to be affected by lucky DH Crit bursts
7. Certain jobs gain dps by having additional party members like Dancer/Monk

[pallid hearth]

It tend to get stuck sometimes, maybe it's better to click it once again to make it disappear..

[barren granite]

ya big issues ... no mechanics lol

[pallid hearth]

What's the macro command again to make it disappear on second click?

[jade quartz]

macros cancel each other

if you use another macro in between, your first macro will abort.

You can just set the macro to be a toggle: /hotbar display 7

[barren granite]

7. Certain jobs gain dps by having additional party members like Dancer/Monk - thats big one too

[leaden ginkgo]

I got my relic weapon to Novus, but im a little lost as what I need to do to get it to Nexus.
Do I just need to go around killing mobs and doing dungeons collecting light?

[pallid hearth]

Oohh! Noted! I clicked too fast. Also thanks Lyon for the macro to be a toggle~

[jade quartz]

Yes, usual method is to spam either Tam-Tara or Ifrit normal unsynced

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks

[barren granite]

it'd be nice if it gave a report though.

defeats the purpose of it w/ no feedback

[agile laurel]

hard to have a metric by which to do that

FF's content is designed that basically every content outside of savage and ulti can be cleared with no actual optimisation by the majority of players

past that, the devs basically quietly acknowledge that people are using 3rd party tools to generate accurate reports by which to improve

[pallid lance]

well

ive been told by Russophones they don't generally decline video games though im not sure

[cursive ridge]

what are you talking about? what 'declining'?

[barren granite]

Right. We have to, to improve. Correct.

[agile laurel]

wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_declension

[cursive ridge]

well that's not really 'declining' though is it. i'm not sure why you're focusing so much on this, i've never heard of that as an issue. if you don't use russian grammar while translating stuff into russian, it's not going to sound russian

it's going to sound like "Man love dog. Dog wag tail. Meat smell good"

[jade quartz]

Declining refers to the grammatical concept of declension

[cursive ridge]

first time hearing about that

[jade quartz]

Which basically just refers to noun/adjective forms based on case.

[agile laurel]

unrelated. if i wanted to boost fsh collectability, i'd want coffee biscuits wouldnt i

[pallid lance]

i see

[leaden ginkgo]

What should I meld for my PLD?

[agile laurel]

or is there a higher perception food

[agile laurel]

crit>dh>det

[leaden ginkgo]

ty

[spiral mango]

CE including Endwalker, will take some time to release. if you like the game, I suggest you do the same as I did : buy CE (get 30 days of sub included) and then purchase Endwalker. this will give you the benefit of Menphina's Earring, +30% bonus EXP points, that you can equip on any class you want, aditionally, the item remains available even if Endwalker releases. pretty good for leveling any combat job basically

for the earring, you'll need to preorder endwalker, you wont get it if you buy the xpac when it releases

[obsidian patio]

Arros Negre is your best Perception food

+42 gathering, +93 Perception

[barren granite]

crit seems to be the best for most classes. Is there a case where its not ?

[obsidian patio]

just black mages focusing on spell speed, really.

since there's no spell speed+crit gear to be found, for the most part.

[barren granite]

ah i was wondering a case for spell speed.

[verbal rune]

Question

At what time will endwalker go live most likely?

Ea

[barren granite]

Past games ive played Haste was the Be All, End All stat to get

[verbal rune]

And will I get to predownload it the day before?

[obsidian patio]

there will be a 24-hour maintenance before the early release

you'll be able to download the patch usually around halfway to two-thirds through

[opal herald]

what are allegory tomes worth exchanging for?

[jade quartz]

With spell speed, we're talking a difference of less than half a second in your GCD if you max it out.

But there are drawbacks to maxing it out.

[obsidian patio]

i490 gear or crafting materials to sell for gil

[verbal rune]

Ah, I see

[obsidian patio]

your only options, really.

[verbal rune]

So there isn't a set release time

[opal herald]

what crafting materials shud i buy haha

[verbal rune]

It depends on when the maintenance ends

[jade quartz]

Most jobs have a few options for desired GCD speeds, and you don't want to go under or over that speed threshold for rotation alignment reasons

[obsidian patio]

the ones worth 20 are probably worth the most, but you'll need to check yourself

[barren granite]

Skill Speed too ?

[jade quartz]

yep

[obsidian patio]

prices change very often

the ones worth 10 might also be decent value too

[jade quartz]

Skillspeed and Spellspeed function the same, just one's for magical jobs and one's for physical jobs

[barren granite]

k

[cursive ridge]

if i'm not planning on doing current savage content, should i just buy cryptlurker for all slots?

[obsidian patio]

yep

[jade quartz]

ye sure

[barren granite]

still, it could add up on a long fight

[cursive ridge]

what gear does the nier raid drop?

[obsidian patio]

i520 for the newest tier

[cursive ridge]

so worse than aug crypt by ilvl

[jade quartz]

The calculations that determine what stats are best take everything into account.

[obsidian patio]

most of the jobs don't really benefit more from a faster GCD than having more crit

only BLM does directly since so much of their damage is on the GCD

[jade quartz]

For just about every job you want to reach a certain speed threshold and go no further.

[boreal tree]

Hello!

Will you recommend PVP for EXP? I have an alt of 70; my main is now 80; be a waste if I get MSQ rewards.

[jade quartz]

GCDs that aren't within the optimal range result in cooldowns becoming misaligned from the best place for them to be in your rotation, which can actually become a dps loss.

[obsidian patio]

it's pretty decent EXP if you can keep winning

[jade quartz]

Speed is a stat that you fine-tune to be in the right place, not over or under.

[obsidian patio]

pretty competitive with spamming dungeons

[jade quartz]

Not a stat you just build forever.

[boreal tree]

So dungeon than PVP?

[cursive ridge]

i wonder if the devs balance the jobs with this sort of gear min-maxing in mind, or do they balance them with a full set of one gear equipped in mind

[obsidian patio]

depends on queue times

[jade quartz]

with gear min-maxing in mind

[boreal tree]

I should be OK? I'm leveling my tank.

[obsidian patio]

also PVP has the current advantage of giving you the lore tomestones for the mogtome event

[jade quartz]

it's a basic part of vertical progression MMOs

[barren granite]

ok that makes better sense to me now.

[boreal tree]

My WHM is now MAX

[boreal tree]

That too, Sir.

[cursive ridge]

just feels kinda weird that half-edenmorn half-cryptlurker is bis

[jade quartz]

That's the whole point of having different options at the same item level with different stat spreads

select the best option for each slot.

[queen quail]

Hi does anyone know what is "10 ways to die" means in masked Carnival? what is considered as unique skills?

[cursive ridge]

a spell you press

[obsidian patio]

10 different spells or less casted during the fight

[cursive ridge]

just means don't use a ton of different spells

[obsidian patio]

Aetherial Mimicry doesn't count since you cast it before entering the duty

[queen quail]

meaning only cast 10 spell?

[cursive ridge]

also i'm not sure if role abilities count

[obsidian patio]

10 different spells used

[cursive ridge]

no

[queen quail]

l

[cursive ridge]

10 kinds

like, say, you can cast Water cannon a hundred times

and then cast white wind a hundred times

and still be eligible

[boreal tree]

I just need to reach to 72 so I can continue the MSQ

An Unwelcome Guest from Shadowbringers

Be a waste if I continue with a level 80 WHM

SO OK, PVP it is with my WAR - who is now at level 70.

[cursive ridge]

how much worse mathematically a full cryptlurker set will usually be than the 'correct' minmax bis?

obviously depends on job and so on and so on

but ballpark

[jade quartz]

a few percent.

[barren granite]

i was worried on that as well, but i jsut figured it best to get MSQ done rather that waiting on it just for the exp loss on a lv. 80

[cursive ridge]

i leveled 3 jobs at once through MSQ, but had to abandon one as ShB MSQ didn't give me enough for 3, only 2

[barren granite]

granted it does seem like a lot of exp 🙂

[boreal tree]

1,080,000 EXP reward for this

So yeah

Oh well, will just get my WAR to 72

And I'm good.

He's 70 now

[barren granite]

ya that should be quick

[boreal tree]

Apparently 50/60/70s dungeons are a no?

[cursive ridge]

poor dragoon left at 74 because shb msq seems to give less xp than previous expansions

[honest anvil]

not worse .. just no road to 70

[barren granite]

no star diver !!

[cursive ridge]

50/60/70 give poor xp for roulette and dungeon itself

[boreal tree]

SMN I will level when I get to Bozja

[obsidian patio]

yeah, current expansion leveling story gives less experience until the next expansion comes out

it usually gets doubled or so

[boreal tree]

Noted.

[barren granite]

Wow

[inland pasture]

Are the Deltascape raids a series like the Bahamut and Alexander raids?

[boreal tree]

Like as in the way they are presented?

[queen quail]

meaning if i used "Flame Thrower", "Fire Angon", "Eruption", "magic hammer", "Abyssal Transfixion", "Nightbloom", "Blood Drain", "Quasar" "Flying Sardine", is it consider as 10 kinds?

[jade quartz]

Yes

thats 9

[cursive ridge]

you don't have to go to 10

just not go above it

[obsidian patio]

yeah it's just 10 different types or less

[boreal tree]

Ohhh on that note; what's your opener/rotation for WAR

[queen quail]

does buff also considered?

[obsidian patio]

there's another variant of the bonus which only allows 4 different spells to be casted

[jade quartz]

yes

[obsidian patio]

any BLU spell in general

[jade quartz]

10 spells

[obsidian patio]

besides Aetherial Mimicry since you cast it before entering the duty

[jade quartz]

10 different buttons on your hotbar that you're allowed to use.

[inland pasture]

Yeah

[cursive ridge]

if that is how it works, mighty guard probably also doesn't count, but you probably shouldnt use mighty guard for the carnival

[queen quail]

@obsidian patio @jade quartz Thanks i understand now

[boreal tree]

Pretty much, yes.

You'll Enjoy Deltascape

[solemn jewel]

Omega bosses are all other ff bosses right?

Except like the last ones

[leaden granite]

i can only do lvl 80 crafts from diadem once i reach lvl 80 right? so for lvling its pointless aka i should gather the same stuff from 60-79 ?

[obsidian patio]

Heavy Swing + Infuriate > Maim > Storm's Eye > Inner Chaos + Inner Release > Fell Cleave x5

[boreal tree]

Thank you! I have to practice this some more

This coming from a WHM

you can do the lower level recipes at 80, but only the level 80 recipes will give you the credit towards the Kupo of Fortune tickets

I prefer the HW leveling dungeons

Mostly either Sohm Al or The Aery

[gloomy mortar]

How do you level Blue Mage by yourself from 60-70 relatively quickly?

[agile turret]

I'm confused with glamours, mainly glamour plates
I put an outfit in the Glamour Dresser
made it in to a Glamour Plate, exited the room
then applied the new Glamour Plate to my character
that all worked fine
but
is there a way to stop showing the glamour without completely dispelling the plate?

[regal pawn]

You can use a glamour dispeller on the specific item

[obsidian patio]

go to the glamour plate menu from the character screen and go to the "plate" at the very end

that lets you dispel multiple slots at once

[regal pawn]

Other than that, Glamouring is done "permanently"
You can't turn it off temporarily

[obsidian patio]

not counting group boosting, I mostly just fought enemies the same level as me with Missile and Choco Meteor

Missile 2-3 times for big damage and then finish off with choco meteor

can also use Ram's Voice to take no damage

you get more experience from enemies above you, but kill time goes down a lot since you can't use missile

and the chance of missing

[agile turret]

gotcha. that's a bit disappointing because I'm okay with my current glamour
I just wanted to do a temporary dispel/hide it so I could see what my actual armor looked like without having to go to an equipment database website or something

thanks all the same

how do u solo limitless blue hard? can't seem to get pass through that ad phase where u have to seperate them

also, i'm playing as a DRK lvl80

[faint flare]

Burst one immediately

[azure finch]

Why is xenoglossy cast during UI instead of AF phase?

Is it because it does not gain additional potency in AF?

[faint flare]

No

Cause it's not a fire spell

oh lawd thank you

why didnt i use that sooner

Xeno can be placed wherever it's needed for movement

Are Deltascape raid drops still valueable?

Yes

There's no sure fire way to know

Not to mention playstyles vary massively between every DPS

phys ranged tends to have a lot of players

at least when looking at statics

[shut panther]

You use it as movement wherever you need that, if you don't it's good filler GCD in ice

Does mog store old event items ever come back in game?

[vital hollow]

Hello! I just found out about the golden saucer. Is it always open, or is it like a limited time event?

[cursive ridge]

permanent

[vital hollow]

so there's no rush in getting the rewards, right?

[cursive ridge]

not anymore, no

[vital hollow]

okay thx

[warm snow]

@vital hollow one a year we have a special event where all gold saucer rewards are multiplied and we have some special stuff then

[vital hollow]

did it happen already?

[barren granite]

ya its def. exciting the first time you discover it 🙂

yes like 1 month ago

[vital hollow]

it really is 😄

[vernal bramble]

does DRK's Living Shadowhave a set of rotation or does it do random skills?

[vital hollow]

oh, next time maybe

[warm snow]

Set rotation

[vernal bramble]

i see, thanks for that

Although if the boss moves I think it'll plunge again but idk what that does to the rotation

[glacial ore]

if i buy the complete edition of FF14 right now will i still need to buy endwalker later or will I get it once it comes out?

From their job quest and their vendor next to the quest giver

Their weapons give no stats

Outside of 2 meld slots in higher level weapons

anyone bored on crystal-mateus want to do "Anamnesis Anyder" dungeon for quest?

it's a limited job, you cant use it in duty finder like other jobs

only with other BLUs

Oh okay

[green grail]

it is a "job", but realistically it's side content

[faint flare]

Need premades to join dungeons

Aka not ques. Only pf

go to duty finder settings and check 'undersized party', that will let you enter it solo. if you have Basic Instinct and Mighty Guard you can solo a lot of stuff, early dungeons included, even synced

aether current are always on the way of msq

just remember to periodically tap your compass as you travel

[leaden ginkgo]

i got the map currents, i only need the quest currents

[cursive ridge]

oh, then yeah, if you don't have them on the map, do msq

[honest anvil]

is there no blue quest on the map?

if there isnt then keep on with msq

[cursive ridge]

I haven't played casters in hard content so idk

But smoked chicken or chicken fettuccine is bis food for most jobs

by the way, do they adjust food stats between expansions?

i noticed that shb is the only expansion with +10% on foods

maybe the extra tp location, but eh

[faint flare]

You would need to give up current apartment to get an ishgard one, and pay the 500k again

As well as pick up everything

[summer haven]

I would recommend shirogane to reduce cost to tp to the far east

[open coral]

Random question - Regen. gcd or ogcd?

[glossy flare]

gcd

[open coral]

That's what I thought.

Thanks.

[warm snow]

!action regen

[warm snow]

Oh it's not here

@open coral if its called spell or weaponskill its on the gcd

If its called ability its ogcd

[open coral]

Yeah. Had someone arguing that it was better to M2 + Regen to recover a DRK's Walking Dead than to use Bene because "Medica 2 followed by a regen is not really using 2 GCDs as you can cast regen immediately after medica 2 is finished casting."

[twilit arch]

[open coral]

Needed to make sure I wasn't misremembering how the spell/ability classification worked for gcds before I disabused him of the notion.

[warm snow]

.... That is an absolutely fucking terrible way of recovering from walking dead

[open coral]

Exactly

[faint flare]

Plus it's still a gcd

[open coral]

They also argued that Bene should be saved for a "real" emergency

[faint flare]

Instant casts don't change anything

[open coral]

Like

What

[warm snow]

Weaponskills are just spells with instant cast times

They just have a different name

[open coral]

Yeah. I just wanted to cross check my data so that I didn't sound like an idiot arguing with a brick wall on the internet.

But as long as I've got the right information, I at least don't sound like an idiot. 😄

[mild mountain]

How do i make eos heal a certain target?

I felt like eos is only healing me but i could be mistaken

[solemn jewel]

you cant order eos to heal a specific person with her normal heal, no

[mild mountain]

So i need to be close to the tank ?

So that eos' basic aoe heal can reach him/her

[solemn jewel]

u can park eos next to the tank

[mild mountain]

Sounds like a hassle especially if the tank is always changing position but that's still is a brilliant idea and definitely is the solution for my problem

[solemn jewel]

the tank technically shouldnt move too much in bossfights

[atomic jewel]

Sorry for ny questions but is there a class that's like dragoon minus the party buffs and blood of the dragon?

[solemn jewel]

Like dragoon in what sense?

[minor fulcrum]

If you want a dragoon that does nothing for the party you pick samurai

[hasty musk]

I think every melee has some form of personal buff upkeep

[patent citrus]

yeah idk why you don't want party buff

[minor fulcrum]

Well they said party buff

Blood is easy upkeep once you hit 78 for 30s initial startup. Samurai's timers are auto-kept by the rotation like blood but without party buffs

[thorny yoke]

DRG also has Disembowel

[atomic jewel]

It's just hard to focus on mechanics and my rotation while also keeping up party buffs

[minor fulcrum]

Disembowel is part of the drg rotation

If you don't want to focus on the party, play samurai

All you have to do is pay attention to mechanics and hit the boss

[faint flare]

You dont think about keeping up party buffs

You use them on Cooldown

[thorny yoke]

ye u just click em on cooldown

[atomic jewel]

Ah

I'm dum

Lol

[cursive ridge]

so question, why are ShB instances cordoned off in a "2" section in duty finder? is that a new thing for ShB?

[thorny yoke]

eh?

[cursive ridge]

Dungeons(1) Dungeons(2)

[faint flare]

No

[thorny yoke]

idk honestly

[hasty musk]

not enough space I guess

[thorny yoke]

ig the section is getting crowded?

ye

[cursive ridge]

so when EW comes, will (2) be ShB+EW or just EW?

[minor fulcrum]

They'll put endwalker stuff in the shb slot

[faint flare]

It's not new

[twilit arch]

just endwalker

2 is always latest expac stuff

1 is old stuff

[solid garnet]

well, im not american so... what do i put here?

[twilit arch]

shadowbringers instances will be pushed down into 1 with endwalker release

[faint flare]

Remember you can't unsync current content

So

[cursive ridge]

not even baby stuff like holminster?

[twilit arch]

nope

[cursive ridge]

huh

[twilit arch]

current expansion content cannot be unsync while its current

its only old content that can be

If European make sure you're on the EU site

Or applicable regional shit

[errant nexus]

Is there any enemy that gives a lot of xp?

[open coral]

Like, a single enemy?

xp is based on enemy level + level difference.

[boreal storm]

Do content near your level

[open coral]

And it scales.

[errant nexus]

ohh

[boreal storm]

And/or roulettes

[open coral]

You'll get a little more xp if enemies are higher level than you are, but it will be harder to kill them on your own.

You'll get less xp if enemies are lower level than you.

[errant nexus]

seems like enemies right on my level or slightly over it are the best option then

ty:)

[open coral]

Yes

But why?

[pure zenith]

you only really fight mobs for exp if youre a blue mage

[open coral]

Unless you're leveling BLU, you don't want to grind mobs.

That's inefficient and really really tedious.

[errant nexus]

:0

[pure zenith]

if you are trying to get an alt job up from 1 then using hunting logs and fates is better till 16

[open coral]

Hunt logs and FATEs aren't better.

Dungeon spam/PotD spam is best.

[pure zenith]

you cant dungeon spam at 1

[boreal storm]

Til 15

[open coral]

You can PotD spam at 1.

[errant nexus]

alt job?

[boreal storm]

But why

[pure zenith]

a different class/job

[open coral]

If you're leveling your first job, just do the MSQ

Lots of xp there.

[errant nexus]

alrighty

[open coral]

And you have to do it anyways.

[pure zenith]

even then people would still reccomend starting potd at 15 or so

[errant nexus]

is the dark mage a good class?

I forgot the name

[pure zenith]

all are good

[open coral]

All classes are good if you enjoy them.

[boreal storm]

It’s as good as the person behind it

[lapis stag]

Sup guys, where can I find Red Moko Grass? It's a material needed to craft Blank Grade 3 Orchestrion Roll but the database doesn't explain it and the wiki says you get them from FC Airship Ventures

[errant nexus]

I mean it's kinda annoying that I always have to wait for a spell to finish to start a new one

[solemn jewel]

thats just mages

[errant nexus]

Oh sadge

[open coral]

Play what's fun to you. If you don't like what you're playing, you can switch by picking up one of the "So You Want To Be A ___"

[patent citrus]

submarine

check out marketboard

[errant nexus]

I mean so far I'm still enjoying it, I just hope that the new spells will be a bit more useful

[twilit arch]

its a possible drop from free company submersibles, if you don't have access to this then your only other option is marketboard

[lapis stag]

So it's not possible to find it as a Free Trial player, is it? 😅

[twilit arch]

nope

[pure zenith]

look up the weskalber black mage guide on youtube, they have a great explanation of al the abilities by level as well as explanation about your rotation

[open coral]

If you're enjoying it, then it's fine. THM/BLM is your standard turret casting mage. Lots of damage, but it's basically just rotating through spellcasts.

[boreal storm]

There aren’t many spells that just “stop being used” in later levels

[lapis stag]

Well thank you very much for the help anyway <3

[uneven cairn]

Is any server hosting a party finder for aetheric farm?

[errant nexus]

Oh I see

[boreal storm]

You can look at the party finder menu

[errant nexus]

Are there like, more and less challenging classes? Or are they all more or less just pressing buttons in an optimal order

[open coral]

Pretty much all classes have an optimal rotation.

Some rotations end up being a little more involved than others.

[boreal storm]

Some are simpler to play

[open coral]

That's all.

[errant nexus]

Ah alright

[errant nexus]

I'm guessing mages are a part of that group?

As you can see in that graphic, BLM's rotation is pretty straightforward, but changes a lot between level 1 and level 80 @errant nexus

[errant nexus]

I mean highest level imma reach is 60

[boreal storm]

Smn has a long rotation at lvl 80

[errant nexus]

though what does T1 mean

[open coral]

I think SMN has the most complex rotation for spellcasters right now?

Those

I mean currently I'm doing the "Spam fireball until I'm empty, then recharge while shooting ice" and repeat

[open coral]

And they all have different places in the rotation.

Yeah, low level BLM is like that.

Basically that's BLM until level 40

[errant nexus]

Ahh I see

Thanks:)

All jobs don’t “feel complete” until 50+

[open coral]

Some don't feel complete until 60 or 70... WHM doesn't feel complete until 78

[cursive ridge]

BLM is probably the worst offender for leveling as it changes every few levels. it should be better in endwalker

SMN basically speeds up like three times at 72

Ideally never used as you can over alot of movement with egi assaults and smart uses of them

it's a good button to press if you're panicking and don't know what to do on a boss mechanic so you're running somewhere

so you press it so you do at least some damage

daily roulettes and dungeons of your highest level

[brazen moat]

Hi all ! I have a problem, I haven't played the game in more than a year and have just logged back into my account.

I had purchased the starter pack and shadowbringers. However they don't appear in my account status table ! Has anyone experienced something similar ?

I still have the keys but it says i had redeemed them...

My subscription is not active right now, do you think that could be the reason ?

[pure zenith]

are you sure you logged in the correct account

on the right platform

[lost sinew]

so thinking ahead to leveling sage… is it gonna be better to do daily roulettes and dungeon spam… or zadnor area 3?

[scenic latch]

Hey all o/
I currently have up to Stormblood purchased and I've hit level 70 already. I'm currently doing Heavensward and it looks like my exp bar is filling but the actual exp values are remaining at 0. If I purchase Shadowbringers will the exp I've been gaining actually register? Picture for reference:

[lost sinew]

i have not tried leveling in zadnor

[cursive ridge]

no, anything you gain now is lost

[minor fulcrum]

For a healer or tank, running dungeons is fastest

zadnor/bozja is almost exclusive to dps unless you're doing a relic or fragment farming

[lost sinew]

so zadnor might be better for reaper

[minor fulcrum]

100%

[brazen moat]

I am because it's the same logging that I'm logging in on Mogpost

or Mog station*

[scenic latch]

Ah, thank you
That kinda sucks, but eh e.e

[lost sinew]

nm redacted

[pure zenith]

yeah 71-80 is shb so you would need shb to level up, but at this point itd be better to just buy endwalker which will give you shb on ew release

All of em

[zinc orbit]

'Which world should I pick?'

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.

Notable worlds:

• Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
• Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
• Moogle (Large amount of French players)
• Shiva (Large amount of German players)
  ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY

[open coral]

Yeah, you can find decently large LGBTQ+ communities and FCs on pretty much all servers.

Gone. Deleted. As though the question never existed.

[austere meadow]

If you can’t pick, go to Faerie. We all go there with the goal of making it the most LGBT server. Or that’s what I heard a while ago.

[minor fulcrum]

Makes sense considering the fey are all enbi

Hey 🙂 if you change computers you have to buy the license and expansions again ?

[minor fulcrum]

no

It's linked to your account not your hardware

[brazen moat]

right

that's what i thought

thanks !

[minor fulcrum]

However if you decide to play on console you will have to rebuy all the game cause console companies be like that

[brazen moat]

But then why do my expansions not show anymore on my mog station ? (I stopped playing the game for a year and would like to play again)

sorry for the spam haha I'm just a bit lost
