[obsidian patio]

nope

/e is only for you

[silver ruin]

the hell? does this mean you cant boot someone for joining a prog party for ultimate/savage when they arent up to that point in the fight?

[barren granite]

whats /e ?

[faint flare]

Echo

It's a chat only you can see

[deft yarrow]

im wondering if I should bother lvling blue mage? is there a point?

[faint flare]

Handy for keeping notes in macros

[faint flare]

It's the best at farming events like tomes

And it's fun side content

[barren granite]

oh so like /echo off for CLI

[worn flume]

you can kick them, you just can't say it, unfortunately always been a thing

[obsidian patio]

basically it's telling you to be nicer in how you phrase stuff to people.

[silver ruin]

oh ok

[obsidian patio]

"Please don't join a party for beating enrage when you haven't learned x mechanic" is what I generally use

[silver ruin]

fair

wasnt sure if that was new or not cuz i saw the announcement

[obsidian patio]

it's a rewrite for the most part

to improve clarity

[silver ruin]

ah

[worn flume]

only the stuff in the announcement is new, they just added examples to the existing ToS otherwise

[hasty musk]

It's super passive aggressive but I guess that's how JP is

[silver ruin]

o ok ty

[snow surge]

How do I add sources for a new chat tab?

[wheat compass]

Hi! Would questions related to the square enix support centre be tolerated here? Their system is really confusing and I could use clarification about something

[green grail]

open log filter settings and filter out what you want or don't want

[hasty musk]

Go ahead

[gray crescent]

What item level do i need to craft high quality zefir?its a food for Casters, can i made it from blue items from white script?

[pallid hearth]

Uh since Ishgardian Housing will be completed in EW, will we still get to do Diadem? Or farm skyscrips?

[solemn jewel]

Yes

[obsidian patio]

yes

The Restoration and Fete's are permanent content.

[pallid hearth]

Oh great, I can farm those coffers later. I'm glad

[drowsy hornet]

I might have missed something, but why the dragon at the end of Stone Vigil drops a crystal? Aren't those crystals from Primals?

[cursive ridge]

the first crystal you get isn't from a primal either

it's a bit weird how quickly allegory gear becomes irrelevant, is it basically a crafting resource source now?

[agile laurel]

It's a semi-weak plot point. There's... ways you can think of it, but if you're only at Stone Vigil then you won't know any of them

[lethal mist]

If I tick the "Avg. Item Lv." setting, and there's already a number, is that the minimum that usually is req by that duty?

[mild mountain]

Where do u guys read all these things?

I love how square enix do their best to keep the game environment friendly

[vernal urchin]

I believe so, yes

[lethal mist]

Thank you, will leave it then.

[vernal urchin]

You can check the duty itself as well, that will show the minimum required item level

[hasty musk]

#lodestone-news-na has all the announcements from the devs

[flat basalt]

If I rearrange will I lose out on the one I got?

[hasty musk]

You can't rearrange if you have more than 7

[flat basalt]

Ah

My bad

Also, can I use a single one of these for something or do I need a bunch?

Not sure which to pick

[hasty musk]

You can check the rewards that Khloe has for them

[flat basalt]

Ah ok, thanks

[hasty musk]

Also FYI if you had a line but could rearrange you would lose them

[flat basalt]

Is there any point of doing what's left?
I mean I still get the Second Chance points even if I don't keep the book, right?

[flat basalt]

Ah, yes. Thanks!

[hasty musk]

Getting second chance points is super easy so

Not really?

[jade star]

I always go for Khloe's Certs usually, there's a few unique items in there (unless you've already gotten all of em/don't care about collectables) and if you save some there's probably going to be more items in each tier for EW

[flat basalt]

Right but the question is if they need 1 or 20 of those certs :) otherwise I rather take the MGP in hopes of the next MGP event comes out, I missed this one with the car.

[midnight tinsel]

whats the intended used of vote dismiss ?

[flat basalt]

I never did the fashion thingie, it felt hard but I know that's a way to get money

[flat basalt]

If someone is AFK

[boreal storm]

You can see the certificate items and their prices, talk to khloe

[hard aurora]

tldr - think of a reason why you would want to remove someone from a party. could be a few things. afk'ing is one of these reasons

[flat basalt]

Is this old Flare Mage?

[jade star]

iirc the bronze cert items are 1-3 certs and the other tiers are all 1 cert each, but you can check them at Khloe's before choosing

[hard aurora]

yes

[midnight tinsel]

@hard aurora but that seems to vague seeing as if its not intended you can get banned

[flat basalt]

It's not vague, they take context into account.

If you all go "lets kick this asshole, for fun" and vote to dismiss then that's the hammer.
But if it's like "hey is afk, lets get rid of him" -and in fact, the player didn't move or say anything, then you're good.

[midnight tinsel]

like if im in a 7 man premade and we pug a 8th
and that person is really not on the level to clear are we just stuck ? or else we get banned ?

[flat basalt]

You can all vote to abandon

And then retry without them.

[midnight tinsel]

oh i thought vote to abandon and vote dismiss is the same

ok

[boreal storm]

Vote kick gets rid of a guy

Abandon is the group collectively going “nope, fuck this”

[midnight tinsel]

how many people do you need for the abandon to go through ?

[leaden ginkgo]

I wonder if cutscene, Can I watch as Japanese dub with English subtitles?

[vernal urchin]

Yes, just set the voice language in the main menu

Be aware the English subtitles are for the English dub, so some of the pacing might feel off

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh

[atomic jewel]

I love RDM's aoe spells, is there a job that has spells like that? Though I dont think I could live without dual cast lol

[faint flare]

Only rdm has dualcast

[hard aurora]

aoe spells 👀

that do be black mages specialty at high levels

[hard aurora]

[green grail]

[vernal bramble]

how do i check my current role quest in ShB?

[atomic jewel]

I think ill try BLK with EW

[flat basalt]

What are these orbs I see everywhere?

[median dagger]

how can i do Grand company levequests for the book of skyfire i cant find the npc's ?

[faint flare]

Sightseeing logs

[flat basalt]

Oh

Can I interact with them somehow? Do I get XP?

[faint flare]

Stand on them and do the respective emote for it

And yes you do

Most sightseeing logs are /lookout

[rugged thicket]

you need to climb the tower for that one

[faint flare]

Some are pray or sit

[leaden ginkgo]

Hi, how long does a new expansion take to be on sale?

[faint flare]

Awhile

Don't expect it anytime soon after launch

[leaden ginkgo]

How about 2 months?

[faint flare]

Lol no

[leaden ginkgo]

I tried

[faint flare]

6 months or more

[leaden ginkgo]

Hello is there anyone here who can help me with the last levels of my BLU mage? I am currently level 50. I can help you boost your BLU as well but just make sure u have access to level 80 enemies else it takes ages.

[flat basalt]

How do you boost?

[faint flare]

You tag lv70 mobs

Friend kill thems

Don't be a party

Hit 70 in a few hours on blue

[flat basalt]

Only works on blue mage?

[faint flare]

Yes cause they get 10x mob xp

[flat basalt]

Ah ok

[faint flare]

Overworld mob xp for normal jobs are pathetic

[flat basalt]

Do the Menphina earring that give 30% more xp work on everything?

[faint flare]

Only mob kills

[flat basalt]

I see

[faint flare]

Like all xp boost items

[flat basalt]

They only work on the mobs that die in dungeons and overworld, but not say roulette bonus XP etc?

[faint flare]

Yes

[boreal storm]

Old info

[flat basalt]

If you preordered do you need to do anything to get the early access to the expanion, you know those 3 days before?

[faint flare]

Removed resource

TP was Mp for physical skills basically

[flat basalt]

Now we have MP that doesn't do anything and can't be hidden :/

I feel like all the "bars" people have should take that position, like Kenki, and so on

[faint flare]

Enter the preorder code and you're in early access

[shut panther]

You can do that with mods

Why you can't do it with base UI is a big shrug

[flat basalt]

How do I check if I've already done that?

[faint flare]

Mogstation as always

Plus if you have the earrings

You're good

[flat basalt]

Yeah I logged in, it has a circle next to early access

Or in the grid anyway

I guess that's good

[leaden ginkgo]

It is

[lapis laurel]

anyone remember where the Adrenaline ability is

accidentally removed it

[flat basalt]

How do I "activate" this orb ?

[lapis laurel]

doing pvp for glams

you have to jump off kugane tower, land exactly on top of that lamp post and /lookout

[flat basalt]

Ah ok, thanks

[lapis laurel]

it adds to your sightseeing log

[flat basalt]

How did you know it was lookout?

[heavy wadi]

it's under the job tab on your pvp profile

[fringe bone]

best healer for first timers?

[lapis laurel]

oh im an idiot its called cometeor

thankk

[fringe bone]

like easy and stuff

[heavy wadi]

prooobably whm, it's the bread and butter healer

[fringe bone]

alright cool thanks

[faint flare]

Sightseeing log tells you

[flat basalt]

This is all I see

[solemn jewel]

Use ur noggin and read the text

[barren granite]

how do i get the Silver Leaf GLDSM recipe ?

[drowsy hornet]

flavor text

[flat basalt]

But how do you map flavour text to the right orb?

[solemn jewel]

By thinking

[drowsy hornet]

...As I LOOKED OUT at the...

[flat basalt]

Again how do you distinguish between the sit and the lookout to the correct orb?

[faint flare]

"as I look out"

"as I sat"

"as I prayed"

Stuff like that

[flat basalt]

Yes, so you test all of them?

[solemn jewel]

No?

[faint flare]

It's literally in the flavour text

Of the log

[flat basalt]

Right but the flavour text doesn't say which orb it refers to.
Two orbs in the same place have different flavour text.

[drowsy hornet]

what even are these orbs, are they an addition post ARR

[faint flare]

And you do them

And see which it is

[faint flare]

Yes

[flat basalt]

Right so you test, just say that then

[solemn jewel]

You can assume from the blurb

[drowsy hornet]

you start with the flavor text, which leads you to a destination

not the other way around

[flat basalt]

So you test sit down and lookout for any orbs in kugane until you cross one out

[drowsy hornet]

that's a good point, I guess you try both of them

[flat basalt]

Yeah that was what I was asking.

[solemn jewel]

Dont you have to do the emote on the orb??

[agile laurel]

yes, you do

[solemn jewel]

Misunderstood his sentence i think then

[agile laurel]

which is why you need to do the whole of kugane tower then jump, for that one

[drowsy hornet]

so because they added the orbs they got lazy with the location descriptions and there is no way to discern which of the two emotes you need to use

in this case

[flat basalt]

Well, you collect all the kugane flavour text, figure out which set of emotes are there, and try that filtered selection

[rugged thicket]

can i use EU codes on this region?

[open coral]

No

You have to use NA codes.

[rugged thicket]

ight

[fringe bone]

give me the code >.>

[rugged thicket]

what

[brittle loom]

Hey, I was wondering if anyone is free to help level my blu mage? I will pay 🙂

[rustic badge]

Q: How can I unlock Offensive on my archer? Seems odd that a dps would not have this option. Also,..does setting these matter for Squadron missions or just Command? ty

[brittle loom]

with gil not irl btw

[little swift]

Rng on command mission clear

[boreal storm]

And yes it’s only used in command missions, seeing how they’re combat oriented

[rustic badge]

rng, as in it will randomly unlock doing command missions? Ty

[white bronze]

whats the difference tell, say, yell etc?

[obsidian patio]

Tell = only the person you’re sending it to can read it, and from anywhere not in a duty
Say = small radius around you
Yell = bigger radius around you
Should = the entire zone you’re in
Party = everyone in your party
Alliance = everyone in your alliance groups

There’s also Echo, which only you can read. Can be useful for some text-based macros or for note-keeping in a different chat tab

[atomic jewel]

Should I do POTD on my red mage? Because in level 55 but I don't have heaven on high

[white bronze]

thanks

[minor fulcrum]

potd will level you to 60. After that, you'll need to progress msq in stb to get HoH (lvl 61)

[atomic jewel]

I got through stormblood, do I need to get to level 50 in potd to get HOH

[ebon gazelle]

do the job specific level 70 boosts skip msq progression?

[faint flare]

No

That's a separate boost

[faint flare]

You need to beat floor 50 yes

[glad robin]

Can you skip from rogue to ninja using the job boosts from store? Or do you have to complete rogue to 30 first to unlock the class and then use it?

[worn flume]

yes, the skip completes all job quests and gives the job stone

[lilac nacelle]

How do I disable the playguide dialog popping up on every login?

[strange flax]

any1 knows, if i purchase a boost for dragoon to 70, will i be able to share its armor with reaper when it gets released?

[glad robin]

So I can basically skip rogue altogether in a way? @worn flume

[warped nest]

Yes

[worn flume]

yes

[warped nest]

And yes

[faint flare]

Job gear specifically is job locked

But yes reaper shares generic maiming gear

[warped nest]

Boost don't give job specific gear

[strange flax]

my friend boosted a BLM and he can share the gear with redmage bluemage etc

[faint flare]

Cause it gives scaevan

Which is generic gear

[river vortex]

You can share the scaevan/exarchic gear

[warped nest]

Your lvl 70 boosted Dragoon will get maiming gear

[river vortex]

not the artifact gear

[warped nest]

Which can be shared with reaper

[river vortex]

What gear do they get?

Scaevan?

[warped nest]

Lvl 70, so augmented Scaeven

I think you can just grind the poetics this three weeks and buy Scaeven, don't need to spend money

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[river vortex]

You'll get poetics just from grinding T2 too lmao

i capped it accidentally

[cursive ridge]

the game throws poetics at you at every corner

just doing the daily msq roulette gives you 500

[warped nest]

It is not like reaper starting gear will be garbage

[river vortex]

i keep having to go buy some gear i dnt have yet to avoid capping

DNC isnt much worse than Shire i dont think

[cursive ridge]

reaper starting gear will probably be somethingl like 380 ilvl or something

[faint flare]

385

[lavish sierra]

how much % dmg do we get from stacks of ray of valor in Zadnor?

[faint flare]

3%

Per stack

[rigid kite]

Does different ilvl get to different stats on synced? say ilvl 520 DRG and ilv 485 DRG doing synced content

[faint flare]

No

You're synced down to a cap

For the respective ilvl of the duty

[cursive ridge]

if the gear has different kinds of substats, yes

[rigid kite]

makes sense, I see

[warped nest]

But substat are usually very inconsequential

[worn flume]

depends how much higher it is than the level sync

[warped nest]

It is not gonna make or break a run

[worn flume]

!faq ultimatesync

[zinc orbit]

Syncing Gear for Ultimates

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

[faint flare]

If the stats are over the stat caps of the duty they'll be synced down to that cap

[cursive ridge]

basically don't worry about it

[river vortex]

Is the 5% buff in damage for one person by standard step really that noticeable?

[faint flare]

Until you do ultimates

[faint flare]

Yes

[river vortex]

Cuz it seems so smol

[faint flare]

It's a permanent buff

Trick attack is the strongest raid buff in the game

It's 5%

[warped nest]

Standard step does a lot of damage too

There's no reason not to upkeep it

[river vortex]

Yeah but trick attack is 8x as effective in theory

[faint flare]

5% permanently is stronger

Cause you get literally all the potency buff

Vs only burst

[tall bridge]

How can I contact GMs? We are stuck in Chrysalis Trial with someone leaving and now we cant vote to dismiss or abandon.

[warped nest]

Don't forget that buffs are stacked multiplicatively

Just leave?

[river vortex]

Cant leave during combat

[tall bridge]

We cant leave cause it says we are enganged in battle. We are at the end stage.

[warped nest]

Intentionally wiping the fight?

[river vortex]

tho if you wipe you can before aggro

[delicate iron]

Is there a place I can find a static group for UCOB?

[raw granite]

Can you get a glamour dresser in your appartment ?

[faint flare]

No

[warped nest]

No

[raw granite]

Hate

[faint flare]

And won't ever be probably

Cause it crashes servers

[minor fulcrum]

You can only have an armoire

[river vortex]

I know it does but i wonder wth makes it crash lmao

[warped nest]

Too many data being accessed

Probably

[faint flare]

Glamour dresser stores a FUCK ton of data

And trying to move that data while being accessed = crash

[warped nest]

Don't forget that in a house multiple players can use glamour dresser together

Unlike using it in an inn, where you are isolated

[cursive ridge]

that's probably it, both the inn and the gc barracks are solo instanced zones

[faint flare]

That is it

They told is that

[steep egret]

they would have to program it so only a single person can use it at a time

and that it can't be moved when in use

to fix the issues

not as simple as it sounds

[faint flare]

Or get significantly better memory management

[steep egret]

its not about "better" its capacity

Cause whm literally didn't change

[last mural]

I'm capped on Yellow Gatherer's Scrips, what should i spend them on?
I already bought the Chocobo raincoat barding, and i'm already using White Scrips gear

[tiny crag]

So....FFXIV twitter just tweeted out some prohibited activity changes and I'm really confused. Does this mean we cannot start PFs to ask for help on loot drops or for farming mounts? LINK: https://twitter.com/FF_XIV_EN/status/1453293143286239243

[leaden ginkgo]

if you take the daily beast tribe quest and then it reset i can get the new daily reset one or i should completed the one before ?

[heavy wadi]

no? it means you can't advertise carries for gil or real world currency in pf.

[serene steppe]

No

What it means is you cannot offer to clear content on PF

Aka "Will help to do savage fights for 1m gil"

[boreal storm]

Read the article, it explains what is and isn’t ok

[serene steppe]

But you can do the opposite

You can ask for it but not offer it

[faint flare]

No, it can't reset if you have active quests

[leaden ginkgo]

ty

[tiny crag]

I'm sorry, what I read doesn't specify at all beyond it not being allowed so I was really confused. So as long as I'm not RMTing/offering help for currency/real money, that's fine? Alright, I'm relieved. Thanks so much guys!

[honest anvil]

does tell not work cross worlds?

[faint flare]

Not unless you're friends or PF lead

[honest anvil]

so if i’m hosting a pf, anyone can send me a tell?

[faint flare]

Yes

[honest anvil]

but then i cant respond cross world so .. that’s inconvenient >.>

[faint flare]

No

It counts after when you complete

[mild mountain]

Do u have lv60 rotations?

[faint flare]

It's literally the same

Just with stone and aero

[little swift]

And you refresh aero 5 gcds earlier than you would got dia

Since its only 18s duration

[faint flare]

Whm is literally just

Dot

Nuke

Use assize and Presence on Cooldown

That's literally it

[mild mountain]

So far the only problem im facing atm is not sure when to use ogcds healings, there are tons..

[faint flare]

They're how you heal

[little swift]

At 60 you have 4 ogcds for healing

[mild mountain]

So at endgame gcd heal isnt viable anymore because gcds are spent for dps?

[little swift]

Assize (more for damage), tetra, benediction, asylum

[faint flare]

Gcd healing isn't good

[little swift]

You prioritise ogcd usage first

[faint flare]

Cause it's not a damage gcd

[little swift]

Because those don't necessarily cost you anything to use

[faint flare]

Off globals are FREEEEEEEEEEE

[little swift]

Gcd heals have the opportunity cost of losing out on casting damage spells

Thats why although whm is primarily a gcd healer you get misery to use if you heal with your lilies

[mild mountain]

So benediction is not an emergency heal?

[little swift]

No

[faint flare]

No

It's your first line of healing

[little swift]

Think less about saving things for oh shit moments

And more about "how many times can I use this in one instance?"

For the benediction example, let's say a dungeon lasts 20 minutes

If you use it off cooldwon as needed from let's say minute 1

[faint flare]

Simple saying: use it or lose it

[little swift]

You can use it 7 times

[mild mountain]

So i can have like extra 18 secs for casting stone

[little swift]

You get a lot more value out of your heals this way

[mild mountain]

Mhm i see

[faint flare]

You can basically give your off globals damage potency

If tetra saved you from having to use 2 gcd heals, that's a 600 potency gain

[midnight tinsel]

@mild mountain basically there is alot less randomness in dmg intake compared to like wow in ff so if your optimising endgame content you know pretty exactly what will happen when and can plan your heals around it

[white bronze]

so what can i dump poetics into?

[solemn jewel]

Gear

[white bronze]

i use revelations for that

[solemn jewel]

Or ur endgame

Relics can use poetics iirc

[white bronze]

yup im prepping for my first savage

so its not a big deal im always capped on poetics

[twilit arch]

!faq poetics

[zinc orbit]

What should I spend my Poetics on? How do I get more?

Text guide on what to spend Tomestones of Poetics on

Video guide on how to get more Tomestones of Poetics

[white bronze]

thanks

[tacit merlin]

Here’s a question for ya’ll - I’m totally new to FFXIV - just hit level 12 and playing on PS5. Anyways, at what point/level can/should I stop focusing on going it alone all of the time to actually joining a Free Company and trying to raid with others?

[solemn jewel]

You can join a free company already

[faint flare]

Provided you own the game

And aren't trial

[sour dust]

Hey can you apply two different food buffs at the same time?

[faint flare]

Dungeons happen at lv15 in the story

[faint flare]

No

Raid content happens later in the game

People mainly do current endgame stuff for proper raiding content

Old raids are primarily done unsync so people can face roll for rewards

Raiding ISNT DONE (primarily) in free companies

[distant chasm]

Tbh its really up to you, you dont NEED other people to play, so you should go all the game without a FC, its completly optional. I say you continue playing the story and doing dungeons to your own pace.

Its completly up to you, an FC is not necesary for raiding or anything

[faint flare]

Fcs are primarily social things

To have people to talk to and socialise

[raw granite]

Is there a thing somewhere like an unlock list for emotes ans such ?

That you can tick off as you go ?

[faint flare]

[bronze glacier]

Are there addons in this game?

[faint flare]

Can filter out mogstation stuf

[distant chasm]

You took it out of my textbar

[faint flare]

Some but it's not a main focus like wow

[raw granite]

thanks bud

[distant chasm]

there are plenty of mods, just look "How to instal mods FFXIV" and you will be free to go

[bronze glacier]

Ty

[solemn jewel]

It's against ToS mind u.

[faint flare]

Most stuff is Ui and Small QoL stuff

[minor fulcrum]

You say that like you dont use any

[faint flare]

Cause console cant

[solemn jewel]

I do but im aware of the risks

[steep egret]

there is no "official" mod support, so dont assume you can do anything

also dont talk about it in game

[minor fulcrum]

literally any mod that isn't just making the game lazy as fuck is a QoL improvement

and they dont give a shit if you mod

Just don't network manip or cheat

[bronze glacier]

Thanks I'll look into it

[minor fulcrum]

Dalamud is solid

[solemn jewel]

It's still against ToS i don't want ppl to assume it's like WoW where add-ons etc are encouraged

Just for safety n stuff

[bronze glacier]

As long as I'm wearing cat ears, i should be ok right?

[heavy wadi]

It's important to be aware of the potential risks.

[minor fulcrum]

If they were actually making it proper ToS enforcement like...75% of the population would be banned

[steep egret]

!faq xivlauncher

[zinc orbit]

Official Launcher Giving you Trouble on Updates?

Try this alternative 3rd party launcher

[steep egret]

^that will allow you to use mods

[tacit merlin]

I see. Thanks for the responses! Super helpful

[patent citrus]

75% of NA/EU population? most JP players use console 😹

[uncut quarry]

I'm thinking of trying out a healer, I have ARC at 30+ and guild quests complete so i was looking into scholar but bfore i take teh plunge, is there any blatantly bad class/job that u shouldn't use or smthn thats relatively worse than others?

[faint flare]

No

Cause the Devs know how to balance jobs

[uncut quarry]

😮

[steep egret]

all classes are viable and within range of each other in terms of output

skill plays a significantly larger factor in how good your class is

[faint flare]

Yes there's some jank here and there but jobs are functional and viable

[steep egret]

probably helps that there are no skill trees

so balancing classes is way easier

[distant chasm]

except Monk

[uncut quarry]

would any particular one be not that ideal for someone who started MMORPGs like last week

[faint flare]

No

[worn flume]

monk damage is fine

[faint flare]

The game treats you as if you never played a game before

[steep egret]

for healers, White mage is fairly straight forward

[uncut quarry]

lmao

[distant chasm]

Not really, but if u want the simplest healer go WHM

[steep egret]

at least up to 50/60, ive not gone any further yet

[faint flare]

It doesn't change after

[steep egret]

Scholar, im slowly warming up to, but I'm still wrapping my head around it

[faint flare]

Whm is just "press button, get heal"

[outer lodge]

Weird question about ninja and the nindo so I noticed if I use the lightning mudras for 800 potency it uses 2 mudra right I was wondering would it be better to use 2 shurikens instead they each are 500 potency and cost 1 mudra and if you use 2 you get 1000 potency

[distant chasm]

up to 80 too, its really straight foward

[faint flare]

Done

[uncut quarry]

id like to go scholar if its good but i saw a list ranking jobs put it at the bottom so jus thought id ask

[outer lodge]

Does potency work like that?

[uncut quarry]

fun ;-;

lel none of my other friends wanna get healer so thought i might aswell

[faint flare]

No cause that's two charges vs 1 charge

2 Raiton is 1600

[outer lodge]

Yes

[faint flare]

2 shrunken is 1000

Very clear what's better

[outer lodge]

But if I use all 4 shurikens

[solemn jewel]

Dont trust any tierlists

[outer lodge]

It’s 2000 potency

[faint flare]

You can't use 4

You have 2 charges

[uncut quarry]

Oki

[outer lodge]

You have 2 charges of each mudra

[steep egret]

when you combine, it uses one of ALL 3

[faint flare]

No

[steep egret]

all are shared

[distant chasm]

the charges are shared between all mudara

[uncut quarry]

I'll go get scholar then ig

[outer lodge]

Yes

[faint flare]

The charges are shared

[uncut quarry]

summons are kewl

[steep egret]

test it and you'll see you can't

[outer lodge]

Oh ew

[faint flare]

With nintsu

[distant chasm]

you dont have 2 per mudara, you have 2 for all the 3

[faint flare]

You can only use 2 ninjtsu

[outer lodge]

I didn’t notice that lmao

[distant chasm]

They are

[outer lodge]

[normal oasis]

does anyone here have two max level characters? I don't mean jobs.. I really mean like 2 different toons? my friend makes a good point since I'm going through NG+ for the story now: at max level I can cap tomes on 2 different characters in case I don't enjoy one of the classes I'd like to main

[faint flare]

Some do Yes for alt raiding

[steep egret]

all good, i just started playing NIN and thought the same thing, figured it out pretty quickly

[normal oasis]

makes sense

[faint flare]

Alt raiding, playing on different dc etc are the main reason for alts

[distant chasm]

Im a main NIN, happened to me too

[outer lodge]

I’m just lvling it for fun

[steep egret]

Alts are also used for social aspects, perhaps you want a lalafell and a Viera

but in the grand scheme of things, you dont really need a 2nd character

[distant chasm]

I love how playing Lalafell or Viera is concidered a social aspect for the implications that they have XD

[steep egret]

🤷‍♂️

i just picked them as a quick example, didn't really think much of it 😄

[normal oasis]

hm ok, follow up question then, can I save my UI configuration to load on an alt?

[faint flare]

Only on pc

[normal oasis]

yea I am

[faint flare]

And that's by copying files from one character to the other

[neat patrol]

How do I re-enable seeing my emote text in the chat window? I forgot how lol

[normal oasis]

ah ok so there's no in-game built in thing

[distant chasm]

In emote thing there is a checkbox in the bottom right

[steep egret]

all your UI and hotbar settings are in the Documents > My games > Finalfantasy XIV folder

[neat patrol]

Ooooooooh right

[steep egret]

along with other stuff

[outer lodge]

I’d only make a new character to experience story again, or to be another race

[neat patrol]

lol

[steep egret]

you can copy the stuff from the old char folder to a new one

[distant chasm]

Happened to me too xD

[twilit abyss]

So if I played the disk version on ps4, will I need to buy another digital version to play on ps5?

[ebon gazelle]

is there a way to unclutter my inventory or should i just sell all of the materials?

[faint flare]

Sell stuff you don't need

[steep egret]

retainers, but if ur on free trial, no, sell stuff you dont need

[distant chasm]

You can store stuff on the retainers, but sell stuff u dont need

[faint flare]

If it has a shop selling price then a NPc sells it

So you can easily toss it and get it back easily

[ebon gazelle]

ooh okay thank you

didnt know that

[ebon gazelle]

should i sell gear on retainers? or just sell low level stuff at shops

[steep egret]

dunno, im a free player, i dont get retainers 😛

[ebon gazelle]

fair

[distant chasm]

exchange gear for your company seals imo

[ebon gazelle]

how do i do that

[distant chasm]

Are u enlisted in a grand company?

[ebon gazelle]

yeah mael

merlwyb too pretty

[steep egret]

ah yes, green gear or better, to GC

[faint flare]

You need to rank up abit for it

[ebon gazelle]

i think im private 1?

[steep egret]

one of the GC npcs has an option to do turnins

[distant chasm]

once u reach a certain rank in ur company u can exchange your gear by talking to one of the NPC's

[ebon gazelle]

yeah im private first class

[distant chasm]

cant remember rn

[faint flare]

Need like second lieutenant or something

[steep egret]

u need Sergeant Second Class

[faint flare]

Can never remember rank

[steep egret]

to do "Expert Delivery"

[ebon gazelle]

okay cool thank you

[steep egret]

lookie look

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Grand_Company

[distant chasm]

Np, you can still sell it if ur gear chest is full

or if you like how it looks u can put it in ur glamour dresser

[normal oasis]

do we know if reaper will require other classes to unlock it? or just have a base level of whatever

[distant chasm]

i belive it has a base level but dont quote me on that

[steep egret]

uh, nothing has required another class to unlock it

for years now

[normal oasis]

yeah, just wanted to make sure, thanks

[distant chasm]

SCH only

[steep egret]

i was more thinking, you know, base classes to jobs

but yea

[distant chasm]

oh ok mb

[faint flare]

Lv70

[steep egret]

same diff

[faint flare]

And own endwalker

[distant chasm]

it will start at lvl 70?

[faint flare]

Yes

Unlocks near the thaumaturge guild

[willow sparrow]

I tried to change my chocobo colour to white, I followed a guide, but it turned lotus pink?

[faint flare]

It's still abit of rng

[willow sparrow]

even with a feeding guide?

[distant chasm]

i got mine with no problem... thats weird

[steep egret]

did you alternate foods?

[willow sparrow]

yea

[distant chasm]

https://ffxivchocobo.com/

[willow sparrow]

I used that chocobo website

yea that one

[distant chasm]

thats weird, thats the one i used

[willow sparrow]

I followed the feeding order and crossed out the ones I fed

[calm bone]

what is more efficient for leveling alt jobs, spamming praetorium or dungeons?

[solemn jewel]

Highest lvl dungeon

[distant chasm]

If you have the exp buff till lvl 71, you get 1 lvl per dungeon until lvl 50

[solemn jewel]

Praet gives shit exp

[distant chasm]

Just try again ig

[calm bone]

im at 53 😦

[distant chasm]

Do dailies and dungeons imo

[flint kernel]

hi , i want to get Aetherial Mimicry skill for blue mage from Pharos sirius hard dungeon , do i have to be blue mage to get the skill from that mob or any class will do ?

[cursive ridge]

what happens if you go over the daily resets with beast tribe quests in your log and then abandon them? same thing as if you complete them? it resets back to 12?

[distant chasm]

Blu

[cursive ridge]

you have to be BLU to learn spells

you can do it solo

[flint kernel]

😦 oh ok , i just ran that dungeon 5 times with white mage ... im so stupid

[cursive ridge]

you also have to see the spell being succesfully cast

[distant chasm]

Its ok, just unsynce it

[outer lodge]

I mean if you just do your duty roulettes you’ll be 100% fine in xp

[cursive ridge]

don't have to be hit by it

[flint kernel]

ok thanks , i will try it now

[distant chasm]

or get a party to do it with you, but thats what i did

[leaden ginkgo]

Hi guys, how are you all.
I remember that in ffxiv dungeons, when players do not move or do an action in 3 or 5 minutes, they are automatically kicked out..... Is that not the case anymore? I see many afk players standing still and not getting kicked automatically

[cursive ridge]

10 minutes

[outer lodge]

Yeah it’s 10 mins

[distant chasm]

they can still move a bit and it looks like they didnt move but they did, you can still vote kick him out

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh that's generous

[distant chasm]

You dont know when you might got to take the trash out or go get the pizza from the delivery guy xD

[flint kernel]

also any suggest AOE skills to spam for large pull blue mage if i want to farm unsync dungeon ?

[outer lodge]

Or bathroom emergency

👀

[leaden ginkgo]

Yeah, but things like MSQ dungeons, you fight bosses and kill them in less time than 10 mins.... So hard to kick while fighting bosses you know

Thanks anyway guys

[distant chasm]

ten minute bathroom emergency, your booty is wrong

[cursive ridge]

any 220 potency spell is fine

[outer lodge]

Sometimes it’s just

Liquid

Ill@stop at that btw

[cursive ridge]

anything higher than 220 aoe potency for BLU is a cooldown ability

(choco meteor doesn't work in instances)

[distant chasm]

I think u cant kick while in battle so yeah its hard to do it in imd battle xD

[outer lodge]

Lol

True

[cursive ridge]

your best aoe spell for dungeons is a combo of Ram's Voice + Ultravibration

it has a 2 minute cooldown but instantly kills everything

[flint kernel]

ok i will try now , thank you guys ❤️

[leaden ginkgo]

Any of those people get banned for doing those things over and over again?

AFKing I mean

[distant chasm]

i'm not sure

[regal pawn]

You can initiate a vote kick before the fight starts
And it can resolve mid-fight

[outer lodge]

Im sure if it’s reported enough some action is taken

But before I finally got my internet repaired after 3 MONTHS OF FIGHTING WITH MY PROVIDER! I would constantly dc in dungeons

It sucked

[distant chasm]

Im in a third world country, i understand you

[outer lodge]

My internet just kept dropping

And it was just

2

Fittings

That needed relaxed

Replaced

[leaden ginkgo]

Issue is that people run to the boss immediately

They don't wait for initiate the vote kick

The fix pretty much fixed the pvp afk, but not MSQ I guess

[outer lodge]

Is it MSQ roulette?

[distant chasm]

do people really afk in dungeons or is this in Prae?

[outer lodge]

Pray burn the waking sands

[normal oasis]

how do I move the chat box around? can't find where the anchor point is

[patent citrus]

drag the general

[normal oasis]

ah solid, thanks bud

[raw granite]

OK, chocobo racing is fun... What can you get from it except MGPs ?

[rustic badge]

Q: My Beast tribe Amalj'aa (ARR) is maxed at Trusted, doesn't seem like I can go further. But my Vanu Vanu (HW) is at Trusted as well but not maxed. Does post ARR go further? Or am I missing an Amalj'aa quest?

[patent citrus]

if you want to continue to allied reputation, you need to finish all beast tribe for that expansion

[steep egret]

ARR beast tribes max out at Trusted

Except for Ixal

before doing the allied quests of course

[rustic badge]

oh,..ALL? lol,..well ok then,..something to shoot for. Thanks. some decent goodies at Allied?

[steep egret]

for each expansion, maxing out all the beast tribes unlocks a questline which will end with getting the "Allied" rank with those tribes

[rustic badge]

ok,..just wanted to make sure I didn't miss a quest to advance. Sometimes they pop up, but I don't even notice them on the map.

[steep egret]

i believe Shadowbringers doesn't have any allied beast tribe quests though

ARR/HW/SB do

check if unsure if you've hit the max : https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Reputation

[rustic badge]

oh cool, this is great, thanks

I just finished HW, haven't started SBrs yet

[steep egret]

nice
ive not even done the post ARR questline, i get sidetracked 😄

[last kayak]

can you get BLU skills from running unsynced raids?

[open rock]

shb spoilers for msq, ||i finished 5.3 and all already but wanted to know if hythlodaeus is somewhere? i miss him and want to talk 😭 ||

[night onyx]

It is worth it to do Coils raid if you are playing casually?

[faint flare]

Yes but it's rng

[open coral]

||He doesn't exist as a static NPC, if that's what you mean. He exists solely for the sake of being mysterious in the story and dropping hints about Emet x WoL backstory||

[open rock]

FFFUUUUUUUUCK

[open coral]

Only if you want the glamour.

[open rock]

ok, ty

[night onyx]

Thanks

[hushed zealot]

So two ponders

1. Do we have any "quick" Duty Bar instance? Mostly for UI Testing and so

[open coral]

In what sense?

[hushed zealot]

Like, hey, i wanna see how the Duty Actions look, i can hop into Bozjan

Anything in that regard, but for the Duty Bar

[open coral]

What Duty Bar?

[hushed zealot]

Mostly for UI Set up

Duty Gauge, pardon

[open coral]

Like, LB?

[queen fern]

||Hythlodaeus is an illusion created by Emet-Selch. So he will eventually fade when Amaurot does.||

[faint flare]

Like Shinyru charged aethe

[twilit arch]

no, the duty gauge like on shinryu

[faint flare]

That gauge

[open coral]

Ohh

[hushed zealot]

Yah yah

[twilit arch]

for charged aether

[ivory compass]

Hello. I’ve been around off and on since 2.1 and I’ve just had my fifth FC unfortunately go inactive. I main a WAR but with endwalker I will make sure to at least be able to run casual runs with dps and heal as well. I’m just looking for a FC. I live in Aether(Faerie). Idk if this is allowed here but if anyone is recruiting please PM me

[hushed zealot]

...i suppose Shinryu would count

[open coral]

I mean, you could go into something with that kind of action unsynced, maybe.

[hushed zealot]

Yea, Shinryu starts with it, baller

Okay, the other one
2) For the EXP Gauge, and this is gonna be an odd wonder. After you max out your Jobs, is it right to just hide the EXP at that point... or would you all think there are situations where its right to leave it on, like Eureka?

[open coral]

You can hide it if you want.

[lean sphinx]

Does anyone know if the level 80 boosts will come out right away with the launch or are they delayed a bit?

Deciding whether I should boost an alt now or wait

[open coral]

They'll probably come out a couple of weeks after the launch.

[faint flare]

On launch

[twilit arch]

they'll be updated on launch

[faint flare]

Everything is updated on launch

[lean sphinx]

Cool, thanks!

[hushed zealot]

...Mmmh, mini follow up on Duty Gauge

How often is it a "Keep an eye on it"?

[faint flare]

Not very

It's basically just a timer for a boss ultimate if they're charging it

[open coral]

It's basically just a visible enrage timer in a lot of cases. Not all.

[hushed zealot]

https://gyazo.com/5b550c9a3c9088c6cf4c3dadff8bf2a7

Then this seems like logical placement

[open coral]

Sure. If you like it there, then it's fine.

[hushed zealot]

Just lots of UI Tweaking, so feeling it out

[static yacht]

in the ToS change its against ToS to say "its impossible to clear without healer DPS" week 1 of savage?

if so that's fucking dumb

[faint flare]

If you say it in a dickish way

Yes

[static yacht]

but as I quoted it

"it's impossible to clear without healer dps week 1"

[faint flare]

If you say it in a nicer way it's fine

[static yacht]

thats just a mathematical fact

[hushed zealot]

There is another one that deals with this

[open coral]

If you aren't saying it in game to the healers in your group, it's fine.

[twilit arch]

if you say it as you wrote it, its not being rude

its stating a fact

[hushed zealot]

・Aiding the enemy / Uncooperative behavior / Lethargic behavior

Refers to an act of performing actions that give an advantage to an enemy (monsters, or the opposing team/players in PvP content) by not performing the necessary gameplay required of the situation. This may be combined with combat sabotage as well.

[static yacht]

^ah okay

[hushed zealot]

Its a balance of the two

[static yacht]

I'm glad that rule exists to supercede the other rule

in week 1 savage

[hushed zealot]

Ye not allowed to pressure players into "You must do this" in content that doesn't need it
But, if it IS required for the content, then their lack of willingness is an issue

[tribal apex]

Hey on controller what buttons do I need to press to have complete camera control

Want to look at my mounts from the front

[faint flare]

Right stick controls it

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a way to make my camera more zoomed out

[faint flare]

Mods

[tribal apex]

Yeah but o can’t get a front view

[leaden ginkgo]

name ?

[faint flare]

Idk I don't use them but it's out somewhere

[leaden ginkgo]

thank you

[faint flare]

Just move the right stick...and don't be on standard cause standard sucks

[vocal venture]

Do Trusts Level at the same pace as a regular job now? or do i have to grind to level them? im considering leveling the rest of my alts to 80 with trusts before Endwalker (with earring should be less dungeons i hope)

since i heard they gain more xp now

[faint flare]

They level faster than you

[vocal venture]

ahhh good

[faint flare]

Apparently it's like 1 run a level

Or close enough

[delicate iron]

anyone know why I cant do my warrior relic quest

Im on this step

but the quest is not there

[silk stone]

So I can join a different Grand Company now, but will I have to stat from scratch if I join another company, and if I rejoin the flames, will my rank still be the same as when I left?

[faint flare]

Yes and yes

Progress in the different companies are separate

[silk stone]

Ok, thanks.

[cursive ridge]

is the only difference for ornate exarchic that it is safe for pentamelding?

seem to look the same

[white bronze]

for bozja do the field notes matter?

[silk stone]

Not sure if this will hep, but here: https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/A_Relic_Reborn_(Bravura)

[flat basalt]

Does anyone know what level ranges ARR Beast Tribe quests are for?
IS the XP from those quests as good as Pixie beast tribe XP is for above 70?

[cursive ridge]

44-49

the xp is garbage

[twilit arch]

ARR beast tribes aren't as good as expansion tribes because they don't scale in exp for their lvl range

they give a static amount based on the lvl of the quest

[flat basalt]

Yeah but I am lvl 32

[cursive ridge]

then you can't do it

[flat basalt]

Ye

But around 44, are they good?

I mean since they don't scale

[cursive ridge]

no

[flat basalt]

Ok

[twilit arch]

first beast tribe is 41

[flat basalt]

Pixie tribe XP is amazing

[twilit arch]

the kobolds

and they're ok exp

[cursive ridge]

they're like regular quests and the xp for them is wack

[twilit arch]

but realistically not that amazing

[cursive ridge]

ah yea

sylph: 42 45 48
kobold: 41 44 48
saha: 44 46 48```

not including ixali because they're crafters

[rustic badge]

I am glad they give out Ventures,.. use them for my retainers

[flat basalt]

Does anyone know how to make a hotbar shareable without reseting everything on it?

[cursive ridge]

you will have more ventures than you can spit on by turning in the dungeon gear to your GC

[flat basalt]

Not much roulettes available for me at 32
Wondering what other avenues of XP I got

[regal pawn]

A lot

[cursive ridge]

dungeons

[faint flare]

Get them all for a 2 seater mount. And excess and be traded to the historian for lockboxes

[regal pawn]

ah wait, not how much

but yes
Dungeons

also POTD 51-60 if you're dps due to the relatively fast queue times

[flat basalt]

So I just spam the highest lvl dungeon? Is that better xp than the leveling roulette?

[regal pawn]

Do your daily

then spam highest

[cursive ridge]

after daily roulette yes

[faint flare]

Roulettes give you nothing after the daily run

[flat basalt]

Ok, thanks

[neat patrol]

Do I need to have HW completed to access any of the HW jobs level 60 quests?

[faint flare]

Not fully but mostly to access all zones

And have flight as some need flight

[cursive ridge]

huh, so doing daily MSQ and daily Expert roulette completely fills your weekly revelations cap

[mossy delta]

I have a question on the new ToS changes

It is prohibited to advertise using the Party Finder to offer help to clear duties or obtain items (to help people clear raid content or obtain items by having them join your party). A penalty will be issued if the act has been confirmed.

This prohibits the act of advertising such support and does not prohibit those asking for help themselves through the use of the Party Finder.

It is not a violation to ask for help or to offer a reward when asking for help, as in the following examples that do not violate our policy. However, in the examples that do violate the policy, the person offering help is advertising their services, which is prohibited.

Examples of violations:

• Selling [duty] clear for 1 million gil.
• Selling [duty] clear and/or offering the associated rewards from [content]. Join for more info/details.

Examples of non-violation:

• I'm new, can anyone help me clear [duty]?
• Help me clear [duty] and I'll pay you 1 million gil!
• I'd like to get some items from [duty]. will pay 1 million gil if I can get it.

Please note that Square Enix may conduct investigations and issue a penalty in its discretion even if a report has not been filed.

does this mean you can't just make a party finder group to help random people without asking for a reward?

[faint flare]

You can

[twilit arch]

the main target of this change is the PF sellers

not people just wanting to help people get clears

[faint flare]

It's explicitly targetting RMT runners

[jade quartz]

Strictly speaking, yes

[cursive ridge]

if you weren't involved in RMT or did stuff that looked like RMT, you're fine

[mossy delta]

that would make sense but this line is what's confusing me

It is not a violation to ask for help or to offer a reward when asking for help

[jade quartz]

Strictly speaking, PF ads like "Offering to help newbies clear x fight" are now prohibited.

[vocal venture]

Seems like you can Create PF offering help like "Will help anyone who needs" or whatever but as soon as you start to ask for stuff in return like gil or so then there's a problem

[jade quartz]

If such ads were not prohibited, it would add a loophole for rmt ads to get through.

[faint flare]

Helping others isn't a violation

[mossy delta]

it seems to imply you can RMT if you're the one offering money for clears

[faint flare]

It's targetting run sellers

[mossy delta]

so isn't that a loophole in a way?

[jade quartz]

i.e. clear sellers disguising their ads as "offering to help with x fight"

[jade quartz]

no it doesn't

RMT is always forbidden.

You can offer gil as a reward for people helping you.

That is still fine.

[mossy delta]

oh i see

[jade quartz]

The ban is on PFs offering help for a fight, not PFs asking for help.

[white bronze]

how do i get garlean synthetic fabrics ?

[mossy delta]

thanks for elaborating that makes sense

[faint flare]

Randomly from any fate or ce

[jade quartz]

Any version of "join this party if you want help with x fight" is banned now, basically. It's a measure to prevent any kind of loophole by which clear sellers can get away with advertising.

[faint flare]

Or buy off market for dirt cheap

[minor warren]

hey guys, is it normal to only get +100% exp from msq with the road to 70 buff ?
I also have the 30% earring exp buff

[twilit arch]

yes because the earring doesn't effect quest exp

[jade quartz]

yes, exp earrings and stuff don't boost quest rewards

Only Road to 70 is special like that.

[minor warren]

okay, thank you guys

[open coral]

You'll only see the cumulative percentage on enemy kills.

[raw granite]

what can you get from chocobo racing except MGP ?

[open coral]

Nothing. It's just another Gold Saucer minigame

[raw granite]

So, titles ?

[open coral]

Titles from the achievements, yeah.

[raw granite]

Okay

[open coral]

But MPG is the only direct reward.

[raw granite]

Bit of a shame considering how deep the racing hole goes

[open coral]

I think there's some glamour attached to some of the achievements as well.

[agile laurel]

there is, having a rank 10 (?) racing chocobo gives you the chocobo hat

that the porters have

[raw granite]

rank 10 is so easy to get, I did like 7 races and I'm rank 21

Has to be higher

I'll look into the achievements

[twilit arch]

its for getting a chocobo to pedigree 9

[regal pawn]

choco rank 10 is choco suit

and it's the companion choco

[frozen mason]

with the born again anima quest

can you spam the same dungeon over and over to get the power?

[faint flare]

Yes

[jade quartz]

yes, the go-to is usually A9S unsynced with a full party

[faint flare]

Or brayflox hard if solo

[frozen mason]

cool ty

was about to ask what the best to spam would be lol

20 runs right?

or there abouts

didn't know raids work for it

[brave dawn]

is it normal for the shadows to behave like this? https://streamable.com/vbfq2k

[frozen mason]

mine do that too

[brave dawn]

just came back to the game after a break, didn't really notice it before but it gets insane whenever there's a lot of trees

[brave dawn]

okay, was wondering if something was wrong with my GPU, hopefully that's not the case

[hasty timber]

Does joining in killing a hunt mark still give hunt seals even if you don’t have the bill accepted

[supple narwhal]

how do we see cleared raids(I mean weekly loot locked ones)

[faint flare]

Yes cause A and S ranks have bills

[hasty timber]

Ah ok

[twilit arch]

there are no weekly locked ones at the moment

[supple narwhal]

can I keep doing eden and get all gear?

[twilit arch]

Yes

[supple narwhal]

I see

thank you

is that not a thing anymore? did they remove it because of endwalker comin soon?

[twilit arch]

weekly lockouts are always removed after a time. Normal mode gets removed once the 24man is released, savage gets released sometime during the odd patch

24man got its lock out removed earlier for the final patch because yes, there's an expansion coming and there's no reason to keep it weekly locked this late

[sharp forge]

Just did that yesterday and I 10000% recommend doing A9S over brayflox everytime even if it takes a bit to find a party in party finder. Takes so so much less time and effort. Goodluck on your glowy glow :D

[jade quartz]

takes under 2 hours per relic farming A9S

[sharp forge]

I did it in less than an hour to get everyone in the party from 0 progress to full

Brayflox took me about 3:40 a run to get like 2.5% progress of it

[flat basalt]

These spells can't be added to the hotbar, how are they activated?

[dusty shard]

can some1 post a guide for materia extracting ?

what lvl do i need for materia 1 2 and 3

[regal pawn]

Mecha queen does them on her own

iirc

[hasty turtle]

is there any way to watch the shadowbringers trailer with jp va, but eng subs?

i can't find anything of the sort on youtube

[boreal aurora]

why is my text lenght so limited in FC chat

is this normal

[drowsy hornet]

Do the quests from the Goblin(Mutamix Bubblypots) in Central Thanalan.
He explains it

basically:
Have items equipped when gaining XP to gain Spiritbond.
Extract materia from item at 100% Spiritbond

[dusty shard]

i mean what equipment and what ilvl give heaven's eye materia 3

is there a table for it ?

[drowsy hornet]

somewhere probably. For 3 you need item level above 35

[dusty shard]

any specific equipment ?

[drowsy hornet]

DoW equipment

[dusty shard]

no need any class specific? ok then

thx

[drowsy hornet]

maybe not for tanks cause they give the tenacity materia

Not 100% sure, can someone confirm if I got it right.

[river vortex]

what are the tank dps right now compared to each other and to actual dps classes?

[tropic frigate]

Which one is the first one?

[ripe hound]

Bahamut

Coils of Bahamut

Savage difficulty

[tropic frigate]

ahh ok

[sleek needle]

https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Heavens'_Eye_Materia_III

[ripe hound]

Might want to do unsynced

[sleek needle]

Oh

[tropic frigate]

👍

[sleek needle]

Some quests have it as reward

Otherwise should be ilvl 45+ gear as it's lvl 45 item

[dusty shard]

already took those 😦

[sleek needle]

Aww dang

[drowsy hornet]

and is probably sold at the MB, but I get the feel you are on the free trial as well

[dusty shard]

how many run to spirit bond a gear if I have the spirit bond potion

ya i'm on free trial

[sleek needle]

@dusty shard Some tips here too:
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Spiritbond

[opaque pewter]

Do we know if penalty decay is applied retroactively?

[little swift]

Are younasking about the new tos information?

[opaque pewter]

Yeah

[little swift]

No we're not aware if it's applied retroactively

Probably better to speak to support about that

I'm going to say play safe and act as if it isnt

[opaque pewter]

Yeah, I don't trust them to be that forward-moving.

[modest drift]

hi guys!

i jsut got all the notes from bozjan/zadnor

but

where do i redeem the mount?

D:

[little swift]

Achievements

[modest drift]

._.

hahaha thanks!!

[willow acorn]

trying to start the moogle beast tribe quest, already finished the main heavensward quest but dont see "pebble for your thought" on map

[tropic flame]

you need to be on a crafter

[willow acorn]

oo

i am

equipped with carp

[queen fern]

What are Rank 4 and 5 spells in the Masked Carnivale?

Oh.

The number of stars.

[lethal mist]

The new rules state;

Although various methods were considered for resolving this issue, in the interest of taking swift action without requiring extensive investigations, we have deemed it necessary to prohibit the advertising of RMT services and the creation of recruitment listings in incorrect categories within the Party Finder, actions which are routinely done by RMT vendors.

Wasn't this already against the rules? I had no idea it was technically legal to advertise it lole

[faint flare]

It was a loophole before

[faint flare]

Cause they weren't talking about it in game

[sleek needle]

You might have several quests from him? Not sure if it'll show up on map if so

[willow acorn]

ya im there now says i only need some 54 lvl quest from heavensward which i completed

log shows no completed moogle quest

i have the quest "protecting the pom" thats in the area but its a different quest giver

[sleek needle]

Did you search for it's complete title with capital letters where they're supposed to be?

Completed quest search is whack

That's after pebble for your thoughr

[willow acorn]

oh

[sleek needle]

Well actually might be different chains altogether, not sure

[willow acorn]

ya it came up when i searched

[sleek needle]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Moogle_Daily_Quests

It's in the 2nd bit for unlock quests

[willow acorn]

oo i c now im on track thanks alot dont even remember starting it

[radiant summit]

What's the conversion rate for tomes on launch day? Is it worth maxing out tomes to convert to poetics for more 530 gear on EW launch?

[faint flare]

4:1 and 2:1 respectively

Youll get 1500 extra poetics

[radiant summit]

Hmm

[minor fulcrum]

They increasing cap or does that mean I cant hold more than 500 going into ew

[faint flare]

No cap increase

You manually convert them

At aurina in mor Dhona

You can effectively have 3500 poetics come endwalker

If you cap everything

[minor fulcrum]

Eww, mor dhona

[faint flare]

Are you using the right launcher

If you're steam you must launch via steam

And if you're not then you can't use steam

[clever roost]

anyone ever buy a job boost / retainer boost? had a question about them

[faint flare]

If you brought from Se or other third party website yes

[novel nexus]

Quick question, I started the trial last night on ps5 , my new laptop shows up Monday and I plan on playing on PC instead. Any point of me playing the next few days on ps5?

[drowsy hornet]

except for fun, no

can't transfer from PS5 to PC

maybe to play the first part of the MSQ for a different city

[novel nexus]

Thank you, yea I don’t have a lot of time to play, so I’ll probably wait and not feel like I’m losing anything

[grim tree]

Hey all, I'm trying to access my account on my laptop, but when I download the launcher it wants me to add a serial code, am I missing the option for I have a square enix account and an active service account? I can log in on my desktop just fine.

[drowsy hornet]

I remember shenanigans needed to install SE version to a different drive

[minor fulcrum]

The game files are the same, but the licensing is different

It should be possible to simply copy the game files and have the launcher direct to that location

[drowsy hornet]

looks like it installs in the directory the launcher is in. Try moving the launcher wherever you want it to be and copy the steam folder on top of it

[grim tree]

And when I go to enter my ARR base code it says "The code entered has already been registered."

[minor fulcrum]

You should be able to take the game files and copy them to the directory the SE launcher is wanting to download into

[stuck cliff]

Are Peisteskin maps soloable by a lvl60?

[twilit arch]

yes

[minor fulcrum]

Yup. Try copying the steam files over

[frozen mason]

can you actually sell the drake horn or no?
