Not sure if this is the right place to post this question but was it confirmed that relocation for 6.1 would work the same? Or are those lotto'd too?
I think that's a big idk

Do you have to do the dungeons and trials in new game+ msq or can you skip them?
you have to do them afaik
i c 
Still a quest objective
Yeah you still have to do them
You can undersize them if you want though
I got as far as The Burn before I couldn't undersize dungeons by myself anymore
Blue mage is laughing at you
but before yesterday I always got excellent
tfw bard not stronk enough to kill the mist dragon by itself
Blame your isp
So (regardless of what you think) I boosted one character around the start of Shadowbringers so I could get right into it and missed most of the story.
I've been re-doing the story on a separate character just for fun and to understand it better, but none of the tooltips for things like mousing over an Aetheryte crystal/quest area on a map, or an ability on my bar show up. How can I re-enable this?
Is piety important for a healer?
gives you a bigger margin of error when you're not sure how much heals you're gonna have to spam, usually you just meld it till you feel comfortable with the mp regen speed
Yes and no
Generally you have like 1-2 pieces with piety for a margin of error
There is an option in the character setting menu to show skill help. check the box
I see. So the best for healer is mind i assume?
"display pop-up help"
What else should i get?
Someone said to do dungeons till I can do normal raids for xp which is like level 60 right when leveling a alt class. I tried doing alexander but doesn't give a lot of XP?
Ohhh
Thanks haha. I was trying to disable the tips I guess I ticked that one too not realising. It's jut active help then
also contrary to popular opinion, malding about boosting here will get people slapped for being fucking stupid
so you can speak freely
Ah thanks
raids don't give any exp.
the best way to level alt jobs is dungeon spam and daily roulettes.
Alright thank you.
mind is a "main stat", all your gear will have it and higher ilvl will have more mind, it's the biggest contributor to your damage and healing, and you can't meld it
crit/det/pie/directhit are secondary stats that obviously help if you have more, so don't run around with empty materia slots if you're a level 80, but optimizing them isn't too important if you're a casual player
basically get pie till you're comfortable with the mp regen, then crit/det, and dh melds are for damage optimization if you're doing savage raids etc
50/60/70 dungeons will get you less xp than the other dungeons
Whats a good way to level a class from 1-15 till you can access said dungeons?
what is the spirit bond bar on the armor and weapons for
When it reaches 100%, you can extract materia from your gear
when I'm using jump as dragoon, do my hitbox stays at my initial cast position or does it follow where my model is at that time?
so trying different browser, different payment method doesn't works. Is SE really hate money that much?
oh ok ty idk what that is yet
you can right click the item and extract materia from it @ 100%

follows.
so I can technically avoid aoe if I use jump when it's on me?
the jump attack, not the elusive jump
It would have to be split second timing though.
whats the best place to level alt job from 1 to 16 with a help of friend
!faq altlevelguide
alright thank you guys
In short? You do your hunt log and levequests, neither of which requires a friend.
thank you
If i wanna do aoe with a paladin do i start with the physical rotation or the magic rotation first?
Physical rotation? Magical rotation? PLD only has one AoE rotation afaik.
no, they have physical and magical aoes.
Paladin has holy circle and prominence
Yeah, but don't you just alternate them?
I generally start with physical since it's longer, and then go into magic if the trash are still alive
At 80 your magic combo is alot aoe
And trash doesn't really last that long
Can just alternate between each for each pack
So it doesn’t really matter?
Phys first cause longer
Magic after that if still alive
It doesn't matter
Ok thanks
Most just default to physical cause you're used to starting physical in ST
why is the level too low? this is the second best item in the game...
oh
!faq melding
How do I unlock melding?
Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.
How can I get my gear melded?
To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.
Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?
Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.
Why is my meld giving +0 stats?
Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.
The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.
See the bottom image
oooo so cant get it in game anymore ?
Correct
its also a mount
turn that smile upside down 😦
is there any way to turn off the hotbar number so theyre not in my other hotbar boxes
is that an annual event at all >?
It is not an annual event
dang
It was a limited time event that ran three times in total.
do master recipes count towards completion log?
ahh ya i remember it last year, but was too low level to take part
tyvm
i have some question about the novus step of reborn relic
do I need to pick 1 stat and go all the way with it or can I use any materia i want
or do i just need to worry about the normal ones?

try adjusting ur setting ?
I thought I did
The minimap looks blurry, the icons on the bottom right look blurry compared to the text of quests
I'm on 2560x1440, I set the window mode to borderless, the ui is on 200% (QHD as they said)
Can you screenshot what you're seeing?
It looks fine?
Yeah, unless you use like, gshade or something.
Looks same as mine, id say its normal
Idk I guess its just how this game is, I'll have to get used to it
Call it an artifact of the PS3 days.
you can try switching to 4k ui textures if you haven't already
I suppose so, what I meant by sharp is that the text is easily distinguishable
but say the icons on the map dont look "sharp"
I can see them yeah, but they dont have a clear border, im not sure how else to explain it
like the text is 2k resolution but the icons are 720p or 1080p
this?
that was on the standard, I changed it now, rebooting to see if it works
it makes pretty much all ui elements non-blurry when upscaled
yeeeeah thats how I want it to look
it drives me nuts and hurts my eyes, its like when you play on a lower resolution than your monitor
!faq blm
#kupo-bot-spam
.
@green grail yeah that fixed it
the icons now have a small "border" to make them distinct and dont look as blurry now
ty
I believe it just happened
Sometime last night
Oh do you mean daily reset or the maintenance
!faq timers
Sry I kinda zonked it
rip
!daily
and weekly is visible in the currency menu (ctrl+c)
what coat is this?
oo nice jacket
For the red AOE markers, i dodge/move out them before the cast finishes, and not when the attack actually appears on my screen right?
It always feels like theres a little delay with the red aoe finishing and the enemy’s atk animation
Okok thx
will NA be able to travel to EU in endwalker? or is it only to other NA datas?
What we know is that it is for NA DCs first
No more info than that
any vendor that sells weapons for lvl 50 and beyond will also sell katanas
lvl 50
yh but where lol
im new to all this
any of the 3 main cities
Argumented ironworks for tomestones from mor dhona or the 3 cities
why do I still get materia 2 from ilvl 110 gear ?
ohhh yh merci beaucoep
is this table correct ?
Samurai's AOE combo is pretty cool, but the nuke is the single target combo sequence, so.
Doesn't BLM have big aoe?
Yes, but Foul isn't that much of a nuke, tbh
Afflatus Misery 

to be fair, Foul does look more like a nuke than Afflatus Misery.
I wouldn't really recommend anyone to play BLM, however. It's wayyy too easy to be a bad BLM.
how do i take screenshot of my character, like i know /gpose, but after that how do i save the ss? I tried print screening but when im on discord, the calls are always appearing on the top and i cant seem to get rid of that

I guess that's what you wanna disable also
your screenshots are saved in a folder
Print screen takes scree shots and saved in My games > ffxiv
user/game/ff14/screenshot or something like that
Mine is in documents, somehow. Maybe check there too if it’s not in any of those
if you have steam f12 should work
Currently got 2 retainers, Miner and Battle. If I get a third and fourth, which type should they be?
Taking this here from #beginner-lounge. Is cover affected by the PLDs own mitigation skills? I know it bypasses HG but other than that?
Buy shadowbringers
if you buy shadowbringers you will also get stormblood or if you get endwalker once endwalker comes out you will get ew shb and sb
Q: Does Menphina's earring exp bonus work with pre-80 Craft/gathering jobs too?
no
k,..ty.
I'm pretty sure it only boosts from killing things too not from duty competitions
Does this game have a bad bot problem when it comes to treasure map items? All of a sudden the market on my server is flooded with stacks off 99.
the current moogle event has treasure maps you can buy
Hey, So me and a friend recently picked this game up like 2 weeks ago and are loving it. Like 60 something hours in. We really enjoyed just playing the game and enjoying the areas. We at the point for just completed the MSQ and LOADS of sidequests so are like lvl 60. We just finished the Hard Garuda, Ifrit dungeons to get our Unique weapons from them. Is there anything important we should be doing at this point or should we still just Vibe and play random stuff throughout?
and the tomestones are relatively easy to farm
so people suddenly have lots of treasure maps
ergo... lots of treasure map stuff to sell
That's more likely due to the moogle event going on.
The Crystal Tower and Titan (Hard) are the only required
content in the post-ARR section of the game.
the market will go back to normal after the event ends
this is just because of said event
Ok, good to know.
People buying cheap and stocking for a big sell
At current, yeah it's normal.
Oooo talking about the Market. If someone is selling 99 can I buy like 20 or do I have to buy the full 99 stack?
is this list correct ?
ye other buffs work. It's only HG that's the exception
The stack as listed.
ah ok, nice to know. Cheers :D
whatever you want to
can i keep transfer all my settings from my console to pc? ie hotbar, UI etc?
Yws
thanks
@keen dock Re: what you "should" be doing - I'll make a note here that it is strongly recommended (although not required) to acquire at least an Ironworks (i130) weapon using the Tomestones of Poetics currency you get from level 50 content, as Ironworks gear is the strongest you can get until about halfway into Heavensward.
Whatever you want to. Unlike some other MMOs, old content does not become irrelevant. Enjoy it at your own pace.
Upload settings on console then download on pc
Imma be honest Aura, IDK what that is. is that the cool mechanical looking stuff that you buy with dungeon and raid currency?
Because we have most of that atm, mostly from grinding Garuda XD
!iglam ironworks cane
!iglam augmented ironworks cane
At the end of HW is there also some long ass sequence (like Praetorium) at the end or long cutscenes in order like 2.55?
It's the stuff like that @keen dock
There's a 45 minute cutscene sequence, but it's not an instance like Praetorium.
It's just literally 45 minutes of cutscenes
Does anyone know what ilvl is recommended for the requiem for heroes quest? I can't clear it at 385
And it will tell you "Several cutscenes are about to play in sequence. It is recommended that you set aside sufficient time to view them in their entirety."
So the dungeon itself is of normal length then? Saves me from listening to long ass monologues ||looking at you Gaius and Lahabrea||
No, in dungeon long cutscenes was a one time thing and not repeated. You get long cutscenes at the end of a patch but you get a warning of that before hand.
It's literally not a dungeon. It's just a cutscene series.
Yea, thats the stuff we getting atm. nice :D tyty
Praetorium is a dungeon? lol
Oh, Praetorium and Castrum, yeah. Those are technically dungeons.
or uhm, excuse me
Although they're practically speaking classified as "MSQ instances"
The Aetherochemical Research Facility
that's a dungeon
so that one doesn't have long ass monologues
Dungeons with super long cutscenes between every single boss are basically just those two.
The rest only have the intro cutscene + pre-final boss cutscene.
The devs basically decided that CM and Prae were a mistake that they were never going to make again.
praetorium is a moive lmao
Well they got that right
thanks man
Aetherochemical has 1 somewhat long cutscene for the last boss but it's really not that long
Like a few minutes
I think Stone Vigil's pre-final boss scene is longer than Aetherochemical's?
also will it back it up for all my jobs or jus the one i used last?
It backs up all of your character settings.
does it matter what i choose?
Nah, just pick the one you like best.
nice
If a dialogue choice actually matters, it will loop that section of dialogue until you pick the right one.
These kind of choices mostly just affect the immediate dialogue response.
Otherwise it usually only affects the immediate response from the NPC you're talking to.
Is it just me or does sage look like it's going to be really complicated
It oy looks complicated because you've never played it
It's relatively complicated but it'll be easier once we have it in our hands.
Imagine you now release AST. With 20 different oGCD spells
It's basically just whm if it did shields
If all of them get thrown at you suddenly, yeah, its complicated
with the addersting and addersgall generation.
But you learn them 1 by 1 and its fine
It will be a pretty active job really
Scholar is slow and methodical with Shields and resources
Sage looks more active
very active, encourages dealing damage too
Eureska helps keep that fast pace up
Sage looks like the shield version of whm, ngl
Ofc you'll be trying to avoid gcd heals until you need them
But at least using Eureskian diagnosis does give you a Tokicon use for trash so it makes using gcd Shields in trash not terrible
lol, it's far from dancer
It has Dancer Partner element
And that's it
In other ways it's basically the Barrier White Mage
But also has a DRK thing with Addersting 
you mean eukrasia i believe
Select a dance partner, get lillies every 20s, cast your gcd blackest night on someone and have it break to get adderstings

Old dark arts in eukrasia
the gcd spells are whm-ish but all the ogcds are more or less mirrored sch abilities
why si that kekw so high quality
wtf
anyways
yeah
Sage has 2 regens, (imo) better emergency tactics, very pog aoe damage
But they pay at the cost of Addersting being pepega on single target
And the sage cage
does zadnor require 70 or 71
71
Does the new housing district means that the items bought with Skyward scrips won't be obtainable?
Or what's gonna happen to all the items obtained from the scrip stamps/trader?
nothing will happen
the housing wards will be seperate to the firmament
the firmament, diadem, restoration and fetes are permanent content

Quick Q
if my beast tribe reputation is like that, and i want to min/max it
Would it be best to do 2 dailies, do the rank up quest and then do the 3rd one, followed by the 3 reputation reward ones?
you can take and complete the 3rd one before the rank up quest, just dont turn it in till after

dont click those links
aug exaric gear or cryptlurker?
Aug cryptlurker
For allagan tombstone, whats the difference between gerolt's masterwork and ironworks gear? And which is better?
It's more efficient to buy now
copy
Look at the item level
Its only use now is glamour.
Ironworks is higher and therefore stronger
Ironwork is higher but idk if theres hidden stat or something
There is not
I wish Reddit would make a big thread about this issue
SE never addressed if they'd resolve this?
it's an extremely broad error
Do evasive moves like Elusive Jump place your hurtbox instantly at destination, or does it travel with your character model?
it travels with your model
you can see your hitbox fly along the ground when you elusive
And for normal Jump/Hi-Jump, your hurtbox will always be at the location it was cast in correct?
I could’ve swore I jumped into AOEs and not taken damage when it was cast from away though, hmm
All movement skills slide you along the ground
then you avoided the snapshot
damage only counts if you're in an aoe when the orange goes away, not when the animation goes off
Yep, in that timing
Depending on the timing you can dodge aoes or be unlucky and be hit
Huh
anyways, congratulations for discovering why drgs die so often :p
^
On RDM, I got froze upside down mid back jump the other day. Was my best freeze yet.
Verticality doesn't exist in the game
I log back in only to be greeted with another of these
Weird I’ve definitely toyed with the hitbox, not sure why I never got it
Outside of raised ground for mechanics
Why? This has been an issue with FFXIV for awhile now...
Yeah, one of the biggest complaints for the removal of the DRG AoE was they couldn't do the freeze pose for it anymore.
And it shouldn't remain an issue for 8 years
Does being a specific class improve your chances at that particular gear in dungeons?
You can need roll if it’s for that job
Cuz I’ve been farming some dungeons with diff classes but if the gear I’m looking for is tied a specific class should I be using it then?
- It hasn't been an issue for 8 years.
- Posting the same error screen in here isn't going to change that.
- There are Reddit posts and forum posts about ways to help stop crashing so much.
Yeah but it’s just unsynced
Then it’s RNG whether it shows or not
Leveling dungeons give you a guaranteed piece of gear each clear
Leveling dungeons give a guaranteed drop for your class/job at the end if you do not have it. Beyond that no.
Yeah it’s just seeming like rng for me
It’s just a side dungeon mostly for loot and glam that im doing
If it's classified as a leveling dungeon then yes, you should run it in the job you want the item for to eventually get it guaranteed.
does the earring from endwalker preorder works in main scenario quests exp? or only mobs
Only mobs
It’s shown as a heavensward regular duty thing
But I’ve done it many times like even during MSQ too which is done anyway
But what lvl is it
Lvl 60
Okay that’s RNG, good luck
I’ve gotten almost every hat and armor except the one I needed yeah

So I want to craft the glowing Moggle weapons from the King Moogle Trial, but I need Demimog Materia from desynthesizing the regular trial drops. Is there any other efficient way of getting the Demimog Materia? I've desynthed probably 10 or 15 Moggle weapons already and haven't gotten a single materia drop yet
Aside from Marketboard, I don't think so?
how does looting work in the raids like eden ? can i only get 1 piece of gear per boss per reset or can i just farm everything out in like a week
you can farm everything out in a week
it gives you tokens for each gear piece and you need a certain number of those tokens for each piece

And removed all the preferred statuses
where is tempest gate?
Is there a way I can transfer my hotbar setup such as where the emotes and icons are placed, obviously skills are all positioned differently depending on the job to other Gear Sets/Jobs? Each Job's setup is separated rather than globally shared
Shared for all the emote, mark, gearsetm non-share for job specific skills
one exit from Limsa
If you check your map, an exit should be marked with a quest icon
If this was your first job, consider atune all the small aetheryte then use it to tele directly outside limsa through that gate via the system

No
i vaguely remember my friend not seeing the quest linked above until he did the eureka quest
ive done Go west, craftsman
there was a quest after that but i didnt take it, i guess that was it?
after killing two level 1 lady bugs, my first spell got finished, how do i regain that spell again or how do i attack it again?
I reached rhalgr reach by msq 60(61) and already get that blue quest and buy lvl 70 set already
In turn 1 coils of Bahamut one of the guides for Caduceus explains that both halves of the boss need to die at around the same time. What happens to the boss if that isn't the case? Does is start getting steel scales stacks rapidly as if it merged or something?
is trusted the highest beatss tribe rep to acquire ?
Allied
Basically yes
I see. Very good to know then
is it better to use adlo on myself then do deployments tactis or just using succor for the sheild
Deploy adlo
are there any guides on farming grade 1 combat materia
thanks i wasn't sure cuz i tought if i did adlo deploy it would give a weaker sheild intead of the stronger
It spreads the same shield
It's not like bane
It spreads a identical copy
With the same duration
kinda wish it would give catalyse if i get a crit but no sadly
in SB?
Yes
dang so both bith bard and SCH was good on SB
ARR(trusted/sworn for ixal), expansions(bloodsworn). Allied isn’t a thing for ShB tribes
then they get gutted
Theu didn't
how do i get my hands on this?
(Scion Traveler’s Attire Coffer)
Do story
its near the end of 3.4 or 5 iirc
Arrgh!!! I'm literally at the very last step for all my skybuilder tools and I have to make an over 45000 quality expert recipe
The problem is that it's so hard and I can't seem to macro my outta this one lol
Even with full pentamelded aesthete's crafting gear
Any recommendations for anything else important I should setup in my hot bars or UI? Like how I have LB, the Signs and Waymarks, TP, Duty Actions, etc.
That's a lotta emotes lol
A button to hide the menus
that's waaaay too many things

you'll only be using like, 3 waymarks and 1 marker, and maybe 5 or 6 emotes regularly
huuuge waste of space
Oh yeah, Isn't there a way to do that, like a button you can setup a command for to hide hotbars and all that?
Then you can just click it again to pop it up
Macro I think is what it is
You can macro into different set ups for your hud?
How long did that take you to setup? I saw a bit about it in a vid before, and it looked like it took a ton of commands to setup.
a few hours?
So, Can you also set it up to swap between your jobs and all?
what is this sorcery
yeah
That looks amazing, I'm going to have to set that up myself
Damn, This should get an in-game tutorial, that would give soooo much more utility, and make like, 90% of the screen clean lol
i wonder if you can do that for crossbar....
Should be able to, would just be more difficult, Crossbar is the controller UI right?
yea
is it important to reach the end of shadowbringers before endwalker ?
yea...
i dont mean like (in order to play endwalker)
i just meant is it important to be playing endwalker day 1 ?
no, according to yoshi-p u should play the game however way you want
dont you need to finish shadowbringer msq to even begin on endwalker
am i going to miss some cool things ?
If you want to, idk, playthrough the story with your favorite FFXIV streamer or something I guess lol
nope, u will still get them when u get there, nothing is time limited or only for the first wave or the leveling curve if thats what u concern about
i think i have enough time.. am on the last 2 patches of SB, about to start Shadowbringers
how many quests in shadowbringers + patches ?

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Main_Scenario_Quests Lets you see all current and removed quests for each part in MSQ
Is this bad
Quick math 161 quests included 4 role quests
!expansion
WHM vs AST vs SCH for PVP, are they kind of equal?
lol it's not that bad to be honestly, mostly bcuz the story is good, most of the people i know were just start uncontrollably keep pushing the MSQ kinda like binge watching some drama at some point, cuz really wanted to know what happen next
Small question.
I'm considering getting a skip for a NA Alt.
YOu guys know what's the server with the highest Southamerican population?
sakaguchi Blazed through the entire msq in like half a month
I heard Brazilians are on Primal
From what I've heard the unofficial SA community is on primal, but you won't get actual concrete numbers
Primal huh? but not only Brazil I hope
usually even in SA server games, Brazil is treated like other region, mostly language issues.
what is this thing
Apparently Cactuar also
How much less xp do I actually get if I queue roulette with healer bonus compared to queueing for highest lvl dungeon?
How do I unlock the binding coils of Bahamat T2 when I bought the story jump
question: are there gonna be removed achievements per 6.0?
Primal behemoth is the Brazilio central and cactuar has a lot of Spanish speaking folks
Cactuar it is then, thanks
quite a bit if there's a significant level difference
adventurer in need does not compare to the exp you'd get from a lvl appropriate dungeon
Transparency
As for the little element, fuck if i know
probably just recommended or something?
Darn was hoping it wouldn't be a massive difference
"primal awakening" from urianger in the waking sands
Okay thanks
idk if story skip also skips the hm primals that are a prerequisite for that quest
Hello, is GShade ok to use or am i gonna get banned ?
yes, geshade is fine]
thanks a lot !
true
KOs all nearby enemies.
Chance of successful attack is low.
Enemy level must be a multiple of 5. what does it mean multiple of 5
How long does it roughly take to level a job from 1-80? With the boosts going on sale, I'm considering buying one because I don't have a lot of time to play in the evenings.
5/10/15/20, etc
ah ok
When you get your ARR relic weapon, is there a way to equip the lower tiers? Seems like the higher tiers dont really look that good but I want to complete it. If not then I'll probably stay on nexus relic
you can buy replicas once you've gotten the zeta, from drake
you can buy replicas once you complete a stage
Ohh thank you! I guess I can finish it til the end
because they don't meet the min collectability
can you learn spells when u visit others servers
Yes
kk
do i get more silver chocobo feathers if i sub again or is it only 10 and i cant get more
Poetics are easy to get, and poetic gear is the only thing to really use sliver feathers on
what
Is there a way to scale your LVL down and try something on a target dummy?
when's the next live letter again
if i change my sub, my days left will stay right?
@flat basalt iirc no. The only instance of a striking dummy with any sort level sync is in bozja. You get synced to 80 for the full kit as of current patch from 71 onwards
That's scaled up and not down tho
Can you solo all of the final coil of bahamut normals?
As a lvl 80
Yup most are pretty easy
Wait I thought eureka also works?
Oh.
Eureka syncs you to lv 70?
I've never been to eureka
Yeah, it syncs you down to 70 I think
Didn't even know there were dummies inside 🤣
i just realised something, is there no chain lightning-type player spell in this game?
no
it's gotta be because of some technical limitation right
SSS outside of idyllshire
@glass oxide Will it scale you down?
Hi guys! For the Kirin gear (Eureka) is it better to get a preset that costs more with pre made materia? Or just buy the cryptic seals and make the gear yourself without the materia?
where do i sell the antique gear for collectors?
You don’t
._.
but yea idk if I should just buy kirin gear off the MB or just get the seals
The closest I think you might get in function would be Thunder 4, since it fulfills the basic concept of "lightning damage to target + others". But nothing that directly jumps from one target to subsequent targets in that specific fashion, no.
Where do I get this hat? https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/127963c5f6d
i think the server has to have trouble with calculating mob positions for the spell or else we'd see this kind of ability at LEAST as a BLU spell
in the wiki it says that a vendor in mor dhona will give me former AT for it
depends on the price of seals vs kirin
I mean, it does have to calculate them to determine if they're in the area of a circle/cone/line aoe already, and since several spells include text "and all enemies nearby", it's definitely calculating mob positions relative to the target position.
the kirin is like 550k and the seals together were 400k
@raven bolt thanks for replying btw, should I just get the seals then?
I guess if you didn’t put them in the armoire for some reason
o i see so the materia really doesnt matter
huh whats that
Go to an inn, it’s next to the glam dresser
idk if materia really matters that much in Eureka tbh
ooooh yeah i forgot about that
hey i started 1 month ago and leveled every dps job and decided samurai and ninja is what i want to main.
with ew around the corner i wanted to main samurai as my number 1 main but i also want to invest time into ninja so i’m curious on how hard it is to keep up 2 jobs? or maybe even more or is 2 already too much?
Sorry for the late answer but yes it should sync you down to level 60 (or 70 of you are doing the Stormblood ones) if I am remembering correctly
I see, thank you so much Dom!
Thank you!
Gear wise it's pretty easy if you have classes in the same role
but since you have sam and want ninja, you need one striking set and one scouting set towards endgame
but it's not super difficult to maintain gear on two classes really
that’s what i wanted to hear awesome! i’m glad i will be able to play both jobs, thank you!
ff14 actively promotes you playing multiple classes
Dps queues are gonna be a thing
I have no idea how I missed this on one of my classes, and I don’t remember what I had before but, the material for monk is crit and direct hit right?
you get exp bonuses on the lower level class if you have a higher level class and level a lower level one
@shrewd crescent u would be right
yeah i know about dps queue but my plan was to play and gear my samurai first and when i am done with that i wanted to also play and gear up my ninja while not falling back on my samurai
Good
What level are you @sly light ?
on my sam and ninja 80
my plan goes for ew anyways right now i’ll mostly just enjoy raids and farm glam and stuff
o i see
since ew will be my first expansion i wasn’t sure how manageable 2 jobs will be
CH> DH = DET
@sly light yea its my first expansion too so I can;t help u tbh
Well typically you would go through msq as one job
no worries Dom already answered me that it will be fine to manage so i dont see an issue with me playing both
but if you have like 5 classes you want to play next expac like me, well

The only problem will be rotation but it shouldn't be too much trouble
haha no only 2 jobs :P
how can I find a free company to join?
https://i.imgur.com/fgFISV8.png is that how i make unsync party
In your duty finder window select the ⚙️ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
heh
Is there a current, up-to-date/what is the best video for a guide on Macros?
Because I got the classes and swapping with macros on the hot bars down, but I'm not really sure how to set them up for everything else.
Most other macros are actively harmful
For party finder, you screenshot seems fine. When you queue up for the content, follow the faq post.
You get them off Rathalos
i made like a wishlist for mogstation items to get before endwalker. is there any recommendations on which order to spend so my wallet doesnt go kaboom? mog exclusive glams first? exclusive emotes first? past event stuff?
And Unsync doesn’t keep you from getting totems
so can farm it unsync the scales
Yes...you unsync extremes to farm them
Is there a list for all the "/micon" names?
Nvm, I just realized you need to put the category beside the command too
Ok so i bought the standard version few days ago and now bought shadow expansions.
Will i need to upgrade my subscription from standard?
You’re already on a standard account if you registered
the sub levels dont have anything to do with what expansions you have
So i should be good? Cuz i looked at mogstation and doesn’t have them checked off as owned
did you activate the product code for shadow
You have to register the codes
I guessing has to install once get home?
Evevn on ps4?
hmmm ps4 should have activated it automatically
Ok in just trying to make sure cuz im not hone atm
Hopefully itll activate automatically once i get home tonight
I keep getting the message "failed to join party" for a pf
I'm not blacklisted nor vv by the party lead, I even dm'd them
which begginer class shuold i choose if i plan on becoming ninja?
my game crashed while in the pf and when i logged back on i wasn't in the party, is there anything i can do?
rogue
Arcanist and marauder are in lisma
Arcanist or marauder
ai thanks yall
As they start in limsa
So you can switch when you hit 10
Opposed to waiting til 15 msq
What're these for? 
any help is appreciated, i'm on dancer right now ilvl 530
what world should i play on in Aether?
trade in eulmore for edenmorn accessories
ah, ty
yhal yal eden relic exchange at eulmore main floor 10.1,11.5
thanks
can i transfer characters from world to world?
yes you can travel between worlds freely, so you can play with all your friends as long as they are on aether
ai thanks
and you can transfer your home world via mogstation if you ever choose to do so (for free company, housing, etc.)
i think it's like $10
18$
highbridge at a guess
could be wrong
that's quite an easy one, it's just in southern
So I'm getting a full soul gauge on bard every 50-60 seconds it feels? Every other song roughly. Does that sound terribly far off?
I'm curious about why you're asking
For real
Isn't that from 1.0?

Yeah, it does look a bit like that area. It doesn't look quite exactly like that anymore though.
Where can I get an invite to the Discord that does euerka BA
question, i had a 1y break and now want to come back.. is there a chance for new gameplay or have to play through all addons and base game ? i dont like the questing way through the base game
Hopefully quick question. Is it possible to craft a HQ flawless band?
You can buy a story skip if you really don't want to go through the MSQ, but you'll still have to play through the ShB MSQ at the very least.
it won't make sense to you if you skip the previous expansions though
it feels so confused.. iam lvl 64 now
and the mainstory quests are so dumb.. war of dragons and very cool storyline and then farm cokkies and milk
and talk to 200000 npcs
and this trashtalks
I mean, it's an MMO. There are only three types of quests in MMOs to begin with.
Fetch quests, talk quests, and kill quests.
^ both of these regularly run BA and DRS
Thank
does anybody here use gshade? if so what preset would you recommend for gameplay?(I have a decent graphics card)
I use a modified version of OMGeorzea, and there's a gameplay version of that
can someone help me out to get the blue mage skill missile?
Make a PF
.
Synced gives 100% learn rate
ok, just made a pf with 7 blu mage slot
ah okok
only the person who wants to learn the spell needs to be blue mage
my MCH is level 61, should I go to palace of the dead and try to get to floor 50 so I can unlock HoH
Just make sure to grab silver chests
do the game change after base game 1-50 ? or the same quests all the time... talk 20000 times with same 2 npcs and go there kill 1 mob and then travel aroudn world speak with 1 npc then again kill 1 mob etc
1-50 feel not fun for me as an mmog .( sorry
Oh you aren’t even in HW?
this is an mmo.
i play healer and now entered HW
i love dungeons and raids but the quests are so dumb
That’s you, this isn’t the channel to complain about it
Talk to people
Kill something
Get something
Solo instance
Do a dungeon
Those are the quest types
Like any mmo
Also it’s an RPG
Looking only at the objective is a bad way to think
Any Macro recommendations? You can just PM me we're not filling the channel
Peeps.. I am kinda sad and I don't know what to do. I finished with ShB.. which was a great expansion though after that I didn't really found something to do in game that was equally fun as doing msq.. I tried lvling other jobs which.. is an ok experience.. story wise I wouldn't say they're great.. but some say dark knight has a great story.. so maybe I should lvl that.. I started unlocking the blue quests (trials and dungeons that weren't part of the msq) .. up to a certain point but that wasn't fun either. Lvling a dps job seems not that fun either.. doing the same thing again and again (potd and hoh).. idk . I'm just kinda lost..
Maybe I should try harder and more challenging classes?
Any ideas?
i mean
do raids
the alliance raids
relic content
there's a lot of shit to do in the 20 some days before ew.
Take a break if you want
!faq contentunlock
or that too.
Aye.. maybe a break would do me good and coming back in ew
Then I can continue with the story again uwu
I wonder are there ppl who only play for the story?
XD
Quite a few
Is there a picture from the new upcoming Raid Pandaemonium without the text like only with|| Lahabrea|| on it
Would I screw myself out of eventually maybe getting my account on pc
If i tried a free trial on PC while already owning the game on ps4
anything important i should know regarding choosing a grand company?
nope
just pick the color u like the most
or what looks coolest
there are no gameplay mechanics nor differences in msq tied to gcs
thanks 🙂
!item Squadron Enlistment Manual
this guaranteed a new enlistment?
what does it mean by "incease the chance" since it's tied to an achievement
can you swap between the grand companies free of charge?
alrighty, thanks
Is there any role quests in shadowbringers for crafters?
only the facet in crystarium
Leave the expensive ones in. When they become harvestable they can't ever wilt, so you just can just keep replanting and harvesting cheaper seeds and crossbreeding still works
I will say though, there's a better way to organize that plot with room for more cheap seeds and you may wanna change to it, here's a little diagram:
X = expensive seed
O = cheap seed
O O
O X O```
The crossbreed occurs the moment you plant the seeds
Lemme grab a link for you, one sec
i wonder whats the point of making alts? especially because dc travel is coming soon
maybe thats the great thing about ffxiv characters
some games i play youre only allowed to do one job or do a dual job system but only one job can be altered
you only pragmatic reason to make an alt is other DCs
@fossil basin here's a good in depth guide to gardening: https://www.ffxivgardening.com/guide-to-gardening
most people will do it for RP purposes, though this game is highly unfriendly to alternative characters
i mean i COULD make an alt on the aether dc (am on crystal) because of a friend but its going to be a long while to level the alt up to the msq
Either other dcs or you love raiding so much you wanna keep gearing past the weekly gear lockout
Yeah, but a decent number of ppl do it
if your friend can wait then the tiem would be better spent getting your main character ready for EW / datacenter vistation
yes

When is the next letter from the producer or w/e?
November 5/6th
Depends on your timezone
It'll be on crafter gatherer changes in endwalker
And other non combat stuff
5 bucks says trained eye not working on expert crafts
is bozja the fastest way to lvl alts 71-80?
Outside the stupid amount of exp from daily roulettes
And arguably your daily 3 pixie quests
which daily roulettes? im lvling a dps job btw so idk if its still worth roulettes if theyre not fast queues
How would y'all recommend me leveling my DRK to 80 level 68 right now Since I've already done my Daliy Roulettes and beast quests for the day?
Trying to use Duty Finder to "just queue" for e1s is a pretty bad idea right?
Absolutely terrible idea
never queue for savages
if you get in without any prior mechanics or coordination, good luck
Yeah
that is, if you SOMEHOW get in
ayyy
Savage raids aremt in any roulettes so you have to hope there 7 other people on your dc dumb enough to be doing that, having not learned this doesn't work from the last 2 expansions and also you need to match language settings
Eden 1 2 3 Savage is the only 3 fights left in ShB I haven't done
Well, other than TEA
Then make a pf
Their drops are bis for tea
So people still do tjem
Ayyy
Got my raid lead to join PF with me
But feels like a long wait
Let me boot up Minecraft again
whats the optimal stat distribution for the final form gnb relic?
That said, anyone with enough game knowledge to be doing tea also has enough game knowledge not to df queue for savage content
ayyy
!faq balance
???
ive scrolled the list and i cant find it....
Cuz it'll depend on your gear
It's in the balance, #gnb-resources
then BiS
and where is that im not seeing anything labled balance...
Get the gnb role
Someone didn't set up their roles like they were told to when they entered the server
It's the discord linked above
