[outer plank]

is siegfried a hard blu carnival fight?

[faint flare]

And get the role for the job(s) you want

[outer plank]

pepsi man put me through the wringer

[faint flare]

No, all fights are a puzzle

[warm snow]

There's not really any hard fights

[faint flare]

Bring the right stuff and dps

[warm snow]

They're puzzles

Figure out how to handle their shit and what spells you neef

[sharp forge]

Are you supposed to unlock masked carnivale 25-31 from a certain quest or upon completing all current ones? Looking online only shows unlocking 1-25 with a blu job quest

[worthy prism]

Dumb maybe question.

Can I gift someone something from the mogststion if they're playing a free trial account?

[neat patrol]

How exactly does the "Focus Target Bar" work?

[worthy prism]

Nvm, helps to read the disclaimer it says "no"

[queen fern]

The one next to your health bar in combat?

Basically, the higher that bar is filled, the more enmity you have, which is listed via number.

A = You have aggro.

From there it's descending order.

[faint flare]

Focus target

Not aggeo

Focus target just shows whatever your current focus target is regardless what you're currently targetting

Showing casts and debuffs

[neat patrol]

Yeah, The description is still a bit confusing

[faint flare]

Shift F on something

To set it as the focus target

[uneven lance]

How do you hide UI elements unless they’re active? (Like HP/MP I only want in battle). And any other OLED tips would be appreciated

[neat patrol]

So, Let's say, you focus target on an ally, while you are targetting an enemy, you can still attack that enemy, and buff/heal your ally? Or the reverse, target ally, and focus enemy

[leaden ginkgo]

weddings invites are your personal timezone right?

[faint flare]

You will always see the hp, cast and buffs/debuffs of the focus target

[leaden ginkgo]

not server time?

[faint flare]

Regardless what you're currently targetting

It's essentially an additional target bar for important mobs, ie bosses

[faint flare]

Yes

[neat patrol]

So, I should always focus target bosses, so while I am healing/buffing allies, I can see what the boss is doing? That's what it's for?

[faint flare]

Yes

[lusty quarry]

is there a reason I can't see clear times in the chat for coil t2 when we do blue speedruns? i can't see it anymore like I used to

[neat patrol]

Ok, Now I get it, Thanks

[faint flare]

It's only for unsync

[lusty quarry]

really? i could have sworn I had seen it before

[faint flare]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Do I need to know mechanics to farm A9S for Anima Relic Light? If so which will i need to know?

[faint flare]

Not really no

[leaden ginkgo]

even If im the heal?

[faint flare]

You can brute force alot of stuff

As it melts

[leaden ginkgo]

so as long as im not letting people die Im fine basically

[meager orchid]

are preorder questions allowed here?

[noble skiff]

best starting class to become a rogue?

[hasty musk]

marauder or arcanist

[twilit arch]

marauder or arcanist since they both start in limsa

[noble skiff]

ai thanks

i dont see arcanist on my list?

[hasty musk]

it's a domain of magic

[hazy bison]

Am I missing something? Why not start as rogue?

[hasty musk]

you can't

because it was added after launch

[noble skiff]

so i cant play arcanist?

yet?

[hazy bison]

Ah, I see

[hasty musk]

you can

[noble skiff]

i cant find it tho

[twilit arch]

its under the disciples of magic section

[hasty musk]

I'm saying that they're in different lists on the character creation

[noble skiff]

oh i see

ai thanks

would you say arcanist or marauder?

[hazy bison]

Is it possible to purchase items from material suppliers in someone elses house?

[hasty musk]

if you're gunning for rogue it doesn't matter

since they're all different roles anyway

[obsidian patio]

Yeah you’ll only play like 10 levels of it before you can unlock rogue

So it goes by fast

[obsidian patio]

o/

[hazy bison]

I am not experienced, but I'd venture a guess that if you plan on leveling them past 10 it'd be a bit easier to gear marauder, but probably not by much, otherwise, yeah you'll be done with it very quickly

[white sierra]

Is there a way to exchange new moogle tomes for old ones? I want those damn Ultima horns but I can never catch the fate.

[faint flare]

No

[white sierra]

Fuck

I'd imagine /examine would work?

Hmm, can't you just right click the given player and do it from there? I don't think you need a macro for that

[obsidian patio]

No macro command for search info

[white sierra]

Can't you right click their gear to do that? Unless I'm not understanding the question

[zinc orbit]

[obsidian patio]

They’re trying to see this

[white sierra]

Ohh

[verbal rune]

so I have a question

is it true that during last expacs there were people going around shouting spoilers in the first few days?

[bold narwhal]

dont forget youtube videos...

ive known how each expac ends because youtube wouldnt stop putting final boss vids on my home page

[verbal rune]

oh, yeah

I'm banning youtube of course

[strong hemlock]

has anyone does this sidequest its so terrible

[twilit arch]

i would suggest turning off shout chat just in case

[verbal rune]

but I'm concerned about more in game first, especially since I have to lvl reaper in bozja

[twilit arch]

since yes some people were kind of dicks

[strong hemlock]

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

the novice explorer refuses to talk to me

[verbal rune]

uhm, gotcha

[strong hemlock]

and i dont understand why

[ripe hound]

Also usually how bad is spoilers at the beginning of expansion

[bold narwhal]

i dont need the distraction this is the first expac where i will be doing msq as tank

[ripe hound]

Reddit tells me "You should turn off Shout, Yell, Say, Novice Network, Linkshells, FC Chat, and probably also Alliance and Party Chat"

[twilit arch]

that's a little excessive

[verbal rune]

sounds about right

[ripe hound]

I'm wondering if turning off Party chat is a bit too much...

[verbal rune]

jesting aside

I would say Alliance, NN, Yell, Say, Shout make sense

[ripe hound]

Imagine last fight of StB, party being "Please use Arms Length when you see the water puddle"

And I'm just muted lol

[verbal rune]

party if you don't really trust people, and FC and Linkshell if you're in with horrible people

[ripe hound]

Yeah I do think Party chat sounds a bit excessive

[heavy wadi]

anything beyond yell and shout is excessive tbh

[verbal rune]

I would close the chat during a dungeon, and open it only if things are going really bad

[twilit arch]

most people aren't going to be assholes

and generally the ones who are going to do it

are going to do it in shout

[verbal rune]

I got spoilered in NN tbf, so there is that

[twilit arch]

NN is also fair to turn off

but the rest, unless oyu're in a really shitty FC/linkshell

are kind of excessive to turn off

[heavy wadi]

if your fc spoils stuff then you probably shouldn't be in that fc

[leaden ginkgo]

so have they said if na can play with europe yet?

[heavy wadi]

not initially, no

[ripe hound]

Yeah, I guess I'll keep Party and FC chat on

[heavy wadi]

it'll be restricted to regions

and then they'll presumably expand dc travel after that

[leaden ginkgo]

hmm ok thanks :)

[heavy wadi]

don't expect dc travel until 6.1 or later though

[ripe hound]

Wait it's restricted to regions?

Sad

[errant swan]

Any "must buys" from Jonathas/Achievement Certificate shop before he gets patched out? Mainly thinking the minion side of things and Lord of Verminion. Some guide said Black Chocobo Chick was good, but I can't find it again, and none of the others do. Tempted just to get the longest sub reward minion instead.

[faint flare]

Initially

[ripe hound]

Oh well, still much better than nothing

[faint flare]

He's not getting patched out

[errant swan]

Oh I swore he was

[faint flare]

He isn't

They're not gonna remove a vendor unless they move those items to another location

[pure zenith]

or its one of the cross over events

[errant swan]

Oh darn OK. That's a load off my mind. Swore I read it on Lodestone, so I must be going loopy. THanks @faint flare !

[patent citrus]

how to access accessories for DoH/DoL lv 30->50?

GSM seems only make lv 29 one

is this the best I can get for ARR?

I'm using this guide https://ffxivteamcraft.com/rotation-folder/r7C5ezybXkcGcod61lz0

and the CP requirements for 80/80 durability job quest stuff, I can't reach it

lv 37

this one I can make it

but how come it's written 80/80, but the durability listed is only 70?

I thought 80/80 is the durability?

the job quest i'm doing is 125 difficulty though o_o

so can't use this one

oh well have to get from ishgard vendor I guess, wanting to figure how people who played ARR upgrade their accessories

by using master book 1-2?

[lone totem]

you are now able to automatically receive achievement rewards from within the achievement screen itself

and you don't need to use him, is why you might have thought this

[faint flare]

They mean the achievement shop

With the certificates

[lone totem]

yes

I know

I'm saying this might be the reason why they thought they were mistaken

[errant swan]

Oooooooh KK. That makes sense.

[white sierra]

I assume there's no other way to get Ultima horns than the fate? :(

I have things set so I'm pinged but I never make it

[lone totem]

that's the fate in azys lla right

for the proto weapon

[white sierra]

Yes

[lone totem]

that is the only way

[white sierra]

The prey online one

[normal oasis]

what are these The Smith NPCs outside of dungeons I am seeing?

[lone totem]

talk to them and you can find out pretty quickly

they explain the novice network to you

[normal oasis]

ahh, for a second I thought they were like the companion system from Shadowbringers

[lone totem]

explaining how you can use its facilities to learn your class/role

and explaining what mentors are

and how to identify them

[leaden ginkgo]

is it possible to craft the seeing horde spear on free trial ? is there some kind of crafting guide for this ?

[hard aurora]

it is possible to craft it

[lone totem]

the act of crafting it is technically possible, sure

but some of the materials cannot be obtained

[hard aurora]

youll need to farm an extreme trial though @leaden ginkgo

[lone totem]

as you cannot use the market board

[hard aurora]

itll be difficult for you tbh

[lone totem]

or trade

[dim marsh]

can u get banned for swearing? not at others just in general

[lone totem]

if you mean receiving a penalty, sure

being banned altogether is a bit severe

[dim marsh]

yeah sorry i meant punished or reported i guess

[lone totem]

swearing in general is the least offensive thing you can do

especially when it's not targeted at other players

[steel mesa]

Hey, what’s the best way to get back to lvl 50 when you pick up a new class at lvl 30 in heavensward.. everything gives such little xp compared to MSQ and my IL is garbage again

[lone totem]

if its targeted at other players, you can get reported and they will take account on your account by serving penalties

in general I just avoid swearing in public places

so in shout chat, say chat, and maybe alliance chat

[lusty stag]

hey guys im trying to complete the scions of the seventh dawn quest and the complete button is greyed out

[dim marsh]

makes sense, was just wondering cause my friend says oh shit a lot and idk if he'll get punished for that

[lone totem]

to be honest no one will report you for that

[vernal urchin]

in that sense, he'd probably be fine unless some prude decided to report him

[lusty stag]

the quest itself is to talk to someone and go to the basement and talk to the guard, no mob killing or anything, thats what the wiki says

[leaden ginkgo]

yeah I know it'll be difficult, but I already geared up my crafters/gatherers
but I don't want to go through the hustle if one material is unobtainable on free trial

[dim marsh]

true true. alright thank u all

[lone totem]

as far as I am aware one or more of the materials are unobtainable for you

I can go double check, to make sure

[leaden ginkgo]

goddamn it

[lusty stag]

oh im dumb nvm i needed to click on an option for gear

[hard aurora]

@lone totem should be obtainable for trial

[vernal brook]

As a WHM, which materia should I be using? Just Piety?

[hard aurora]

in fairly sure

[leaden ginkgo]

I think that you cant get Althyk Lavender on free trial
which is used to get mythrite ore

[hard aurora]

mythrite ore is from level 30~ miner so

no thats pretty easy

[lyric leaf]

So, me and some friends leveled BLU to 50 to farm Tomestones of Lore but I rad that we need some level 63 skills to farm them, but I don't have access to level 63 areas yet.
Which other ways can I farm the event? My MSQ is level 56

[leaden ginkgo]

oh sweet

[patent citrus]

sps you want > crit > dh/det

[leaden ginkgo]

all my doh/dol classes are 60

and geared up in ilvl 200

[hard aurora]

ye youre good

i think

[leaden ginkgo]

I hope so

[lone totem]

do you have Master Carpenter IV

[leaden ginkgo]

yes

I have the recipe

and the stats to craft it

[lone totem]

I just cross checked it, you are able to make it but you will need GSM as well as either BSM or ARM

so you are good

actually

[leaden ginkgo]

all good

[vernal brook]

Im new. what is sps?

[faint flare]

Spell speed

[vernal brook]

ah. thanks

[lone totem]

for white mage, you want to invest in piety until you reach a comfortable level

[ripe hound]

Some also simplify it to SS

[lone totem]

overmelding piety doesn't you a lot

but the same is said if you don't have enough piety

[leaden ginkgo]

is there someplace I can check where to get a specific material ? it's a pain in the ass having to go though google everytime

[ripe hound]

wdym my team is dying like raindrops

[lone totem]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/recipe/3ae19ede626/

is what i just used to check them all

[ripe hound]

But yeah I still haven’t figure out how piety interacts with people dying like

[lone totem]

to make sure you can craft it

[clear cove]

what are the doman enclave reconstruction rewards?

or is it just that 1 glam piece

[leaden ginkgo]

damn bro ur an angel

thanks

[patent citrus]

there are various shops that's available for you once it's unlocked

[lone totem]

piety is what controls the amount of mp you recover over time

your regeneration rate

[patent citrus]

yeah depends on the timing of your gearing I guess, if you are progressing week 1 as a healer or something like that where you can only wear pentamelded crafting

you'll have to settle with 2k piety

[lone totem]

2,000 piety is too much

even back then

that is actually an extremely large amount

[patent citrus]

but you can't avoid it, all exarchic is 2k piety

[lone totem]

for me, I ran around 1750 piety as a solo white mage

[patent citrus]

and you'll be facing a lot of deaths anyway

[lone totem]

but with another healer, I'd run around 750-900

[leaden ginkgo]

lvl 70 boosts came out the same day as early access right? I don't remember and the current sale seems like a trap if they did.

[twilit arch]

iirc yes the job skip updates were with early access

[normal oasis]

is there somewhere I can see my progress towards desynth levels?

[twilit arch]

in the character info, click on the doh/dol section for classes

[faint flare]

Hover over your crafting levels

In the profile

[normal oasis]

ohh i see

[twilit arch]

can also click on the crafter levels to open the desynthesis level menu

[normal oasis]

and they can all go to 520 desynth level?

[twilit arch]

yes

[normal oasis]

[river wagon]

hello everyone

this is a more support/dev team related question

but has anyone ever gotten banned cause of a hack or just in general from the game?

and if so

how long did it take for you to get your account back if you did

[hasty musk]

if you get banned you don't get your account back

[river wagon]

my mistake i should've worded it better

if your account is "locked or suspended"

the reason im asking this is cause i recently had in issue with my account getting hacked so i contacted support and they said they would work on it but they can't give me a set time for when my account will be back

and its been 8 days so

i was just wondering if anyone else went thru the same thing

[lavish sierra]

got randomly logged out and now this

[sharp forge]

just restart your game no biggie

[patent citrus]

Just wait

[queen fern]

Regarding Custom Deliveries, should I focus on Kai-Shirr or finish the Stormblood ones?

[patent citrus]

It will get you in asap if you don't do anything

[sharp forge]

ah really?

ive always restarted mine lmao

[neat patrol]

Is Summoner unlocked after level 30 Arcanist? Also, Is the 3 boss summon skills available for a level 60 Summoner?

[patent citrus]

Get all max heart, then pick the one that has weekly bonus

[queen fern]

Yeah, but should I do Kai-Shirr first or focus on maxing the other ones first?

[patent citrus]

Any

[warm snow]

Yes, and those do not exist in game yet

Summoner is getting a complete rework in endwalker

[neat patrol]

Oh, So they're from Endwalker then?

ah

[queen fern]

IIRC, you still have Egis until Level 90.

[warm snow]

Actually summoning the primals is one of your final unlocks

Level 90 iirc

[patent citrus]

Kai shir and hw one will get the same amount of yellow/white scrips

[neat patrol]

I never saw Summoner before, only saw the Primal skills from Asmon's vid, so I thought they were already a thing lol

[warm snow]

Just finish all the story lines then do whatever. If you have to focus anyone I'd recommend ehll tou in the firmament as her quests unlock a mount

[patent citrus]

The only one that has more basic reward is charlemand

[queen fern]

Yep, maxed Ehil Tou already.

And Charlemend.

[patent citrus]

For bonus, all are the same

[heavy wadi]

nah, that's a part of the endwalker smn rework. atm they're vastly different

[warm snow]

And was that video, him reacting to the Endwalker job actions?

[neat patrol]

So is Summoner a healer or DPS?

[neat patrol]

Yeah

[heavy wadi]

dps.

sch is a healer.

[boreal storm]

Red is dps, green is healer

[neat patrol]

Oh, Arcanist becomes Summoner, not Scholar to Summoner

[warm snow]

Arcanist is a special case

It's a class with 2 jobs

[boreal storm]

It unlocks both

[warm snow]

The only one of its kind

[neat patrol]

Yeah, A bit confusing

[warm snow]

And likely the only one we'll ever get

[boreal storm]

But it more easily transitions into SMN

[warm snow]

They both use books

They share exp

[neat patrol]

Oh yeah, So hitting 90 on one, makes the other 90 as well

But

[heavy wadi]

correct

[neat patrol]

Are job quests shared?

[heavy wadi]

no

they have entirely different fantasies and lore

[boreal storm]

Different gear different skills

[neat patrol]

I actually like that, more to do, and difference in lore and all

Also, It's said, that Blue Mage is the "Solo" class, can run all roles, and can let you clear dungeons and other content by yourself, does this apply to the level 80 version of BLU, or if I'm a trial player, could I get all the skills available to me, and solo content 60 and under, if needed, or players are unavailable? Or just for the lols

[boreal storm]

Blu only goes to lvl 70 right now, it’s a unique job

[neat patrol]

Ok, So, that means it's skill pool is only from content and enemies that are 1-70, not higher than that?

[boreal storm]

For now

[neat patrol]

Getting level 90, but BLU is still stuck at 70 smoge

[heavy wadi]

blu will get boosted to 80 eventually

[boreal storm]

It’ll get 80 later

[steep egret]

they will probably expand BLU later, but yea, dont expect to use it for end-game content

[heavy wadi]

they got their cap bumped to 70 in 5.4, so probably around the same time in ew

[neat patrol]

I guess because BLU can be a more powerful class compared to the others, in some ways, the devs probably don't want it to have access to the endgame content

[heavy wadi]

that's exactly why.

[open coral]

BLU literally is more powerful than any other class.

[heavy wadi]

it will never be able to do current endgame content.

[open coral]

As in "can one shot bosses in 30s" kind of overpowered.

[patent citrus]

have you got the morbol mount?

[boreal storm]

(Cuts mid-boss HP in half) Just BLU things

[neat patrol]

Yeah, I heard it has a few insta-kill skills, do those even factor to insta kill bosses?

[neat patrol]

No

[patent citrus]

that's BLU endgame content

[open coral]

The insta-kills, don't, but BLU have a particular combo that, when performed by 8 BLU in a synced party, will decimate a boss.

That's why people have been doing BLU farm groups of T2

For the moogle event

[warm snow]

@neat patrol blu is basically a side mode. It uses monster skills instead of actual spells.

Its so stupidly overpowered its not allowed in regular content

[open coral]

BLU turns what is normally a 3-5 minute fight into a 34s one.

[boreal storm]

It can’t even do msq, like at all

[neat patrol]

Ah, That sucks a bit, A little less fun to have during it lol

[heavy wadi]

again, it's side content.

[neat patrol]

Yeah

Can BLUs go into PotD?

[warm snow]

You have a spell that's basically an on demand tank lb3, with the catch that you can't move for 10s but you're also immune to knock back effects

[boreal storm]

Nope

[warm snow]

Lol no

[boreal storm]

Blu would break deep dungeons in half

[warm snow]

Half is generous

[neat patrol]

So, What content are BLUs allowed in?

[warm snow]

You can do raids and trials and dungeons but only in premade groups

[open coral]

Any level 70 and under content... as long as they're in a premade group or solo.

[warm snow]

You also have a solo challenge/puzzle arena called the masked carnival exclusively for blue mages

[neat patrol]

Ok that makes sense as to why I've never seen a BLU in combat before

[warm snow]

Like I said, not allowed in regular content

[open coral]

You most often see them going around in packs during events where items drop from FATEs

[boreal storm]

No roulettes, ultimates, field ops, deep dungeons, queueing normally

[warm snow]

Stupid broken

[warm snow]

Replace eureka with field operations

[open coral]

Ram's Voice + Ultravibration-ing everything in the FATEs before moving on.

[warm snow]

Cuz I guarantee it ain't gonna be allowed in bozja either

[rugged flicker]

Soo, let's ignore the fact that she's managed to glitch into an inaccessible area... How is she levitating like that? o.o

[open coral]

It's a $200 emote

[patent citrus]

you buy the omega statue

[open coral]

Comes with the Omega statuette

[patent citrus]

from SE store

[boreal storm]

Fem omega

[warm snow]

It's also not inaccessivle

You talk to an npc and go to the other side of the gate

You did this during msq

[steep egret]

inaccessible area, probably doesn't have normal floor collision, if its not intended to be walked on

[rugged flicker]

But there's nothing on the other side, just a roped off entryway. It's the entrance to the inn.

[open coral]

Incorrect. We've explained how it works.

[neat patrol]

Kinda wish the DC had a BLU channel, being it's so unique and could be better to find people to do BLU related things with/help

[open coral]

There are entire discord servers for that.

[neat patrol]

Does SE have a official DC for each job? Some game devs do that

[honest anvil]

what’s the faq to see that ready to feed chocobo onion or not photo?

[open coral]

SE doesn't have any kind of outside channels officially

This Discord is as close to "official" as things get.

But we're not actually associated with SE

[neat patrol]

Oh yeah, I forget that this isn't exactly official

[open coral]

Because that would mean restrictions

Like we wouldn't be able to talk about things like ACT or the quicklauncher.

[neat patrol]

I don't even know what those refer to lol

[boreal storm]

Mods n shit

Which SE hates

[hallow wolf]

Is there a specific Beast Tribe to aim for first, or has good stuff aside from mounts?

[thin vale]

where actually is potd? I've unlocked it but haven't done it and now I forgot where the entrance is

[neat patrol]

I didn't even know FFXIV could be "modded" until a few days ago, only knew about Geshade

[boreal storm]

The ARR tribes sell dyes if you care

[steep egret]

quarrymill, south shroud

[neat patrol]

Are you a trial player?

[thin vale]

gracias

[hallow wolf]

Yep

[white isle]

Can i play my pc ffxiv account on my ps5

[neat patrol]

Eh, Not really, there's Dyes and Mounts in each of em, just look up and pick which ones you prefer to go for

[hallow wolf]

I know HW at least has some glamour stuff

[open coral]

For the most part, addons and mods aren't really widespread in XIV the way they are in other games because the game natively supports a lot of the functions that addons and mods fill.

[boreal storm]

The HW tribes have exclusive glam

[open coral]

Only if you purchase the corresponding PS4/PS5 license.

[deft quiver]

my rdm is lvl 52 or so, is it worth buying the lvl 70 skip and going to eureka with it?

just got into pyros btw

[white isle]

So all i have to do is buy the ps5 version on my square enix account and then itll let me login with my pc account?

[boreal storm]

No

[open coral]

You'd have to buy it on the PlayStation Store and link it to your Mogstation account, but then yes.

It's all the same account.

[neat patrol]

Yeah, The amount of accessibility, functions, and customization FFXIV alone has is insane compared to any game I've ever played

[deft quiver]

me or renren?

[white isle]

Right

[acoustic turret]

Hi! Does anyone know if Road to 70 will upgrade to road to 80 on existing characters?

[boreal storm]

Nevermind they’re on sale, go for it then

[deft quiver]

ye theyre 50% off thats why

already bought 2 lol

[neat patrol]

That's a good question actually, Is the road to ___ being updated with Endwalker?

[deft quiver]

that lvl 1 to 70 for $12.50 is a big time saver

[eager skiff]

can i ask here about the new rules that are coming to the game ?

[acoustic turret]

If anyone knows how Road to 60 was handled to Road to 70 would love to know

[open coral]

Road to 60 wasn't a thing.

It didn't exist.

[deft quiver]

is road to 80 gonna be a thing?

or gonna stay at 70?

[open coral]

They only introduced Road to 70 buff in Shadowbringers, so we don't know

Presumably it will become Road to 80

But there's no data.

[neat patrol]

Maybe it'll be updated every 2 expansions

[acoustic turret]

Ohh, I thought that it was an older system

[open coral]

Nope, it's pretty new.

[deft quiver]

ye thats what i was thinking, but i guess we'll see

[neat patrol]

So probably become Road to 80 in the expansion after Endwalker

[open coral]

More likely it will be updated to Road to 80, but as for timeline, again, there's no data

[neat patrol]

What was the time between HW and SB releases?

[open coral]

2 years

It's always 2 years between expansions.

[boreal storm]

It’s usually 2 years between expansions

[open coral]

This has been an exception because of COVID delays

That pushed the whole production schedule back by 3 months.

[acoustic turret]

Which is a pretty amazing handling of the whole pandemic, it’s bonkers how they kept the 3.5-4 months between patches after the initial delay

Wait, the road to 60 did exist

https://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/threads/354124

If anyone knows how Rt60 was handled on existing characters when Rt70 was introduced I’d love to know!

[boreal storm]

It’s for new characters

[warped echo]

in PF, does AM stand for area markers?

[lone totem]

what are you looking at

what is the duty listed

[warped echo]

UWU

its either markers or a mod or something lol

[rigid mist]

Hey all, if I am in the free trial on PC, and I want to purchase for PSN, will I still be able to play PC, or will that lock me out until I purchase for PC as well? Also, if I purchase both complete editions, will I get 2 months free?

[boreal storm]

No to the 2 free months

[open coral]

You'd have to purchase a PC license as well as the PS license if you wanted to use both platforms.

And yes, you would get 30 days free for each registered license of the base game (included in the Complete Edition)

[lone totem]

an automatic tool that marks the people that get gaols during titan

iirc

[rigid mist]

Sweet, thank you! Makes it worth it then on sale @ $24

[open coral]

However what I don't know is if those 30 days would end up being registered as concurrent if you applied both licenses at the same time.

[lone totem]

they stack

when I bought the PC license while already owning the PS3 license and had 60 days, it was extended by 30

to 90 days

[open coral]

Yeah, no, but that's if you've already run out a 30 free days and register a new license.

This is if you're registering two brand new licenses at the same time.

That's what I don't know.

[lone totem]

that's true

but if you own the game, it's not "free time"

anymore

it's paid time

you paid for it

[open coral]

I would expect them to be additive, not concurrent

[lone totem]

and thus if you buy another client, it should add it

[lone totem]

at least my assumption

[rigid mist]

I would expect that too, but this chaos of a purchase process doesn't give much confidence lol

[open coral]

Worst case scenario, you buy both now, on sale

You register the Playstation version now, and hold the PC code for 30 days

Then register the PC version

[rigid mist]

Might do just that. Thanks for the answers, all

[halcyon radish]

Are you required to complete the Dragonsong War quests in order to complete the HW relic up to the "lux" stage?

or do you need any of the dungeons from it?

[twilit arch]

no, dont need to complete post hw

you will need to do the warring triad though

[halcyon radish]

Ah okay, was just curious because my friend is insisting on completing his relic before continuing post HW for some reason

and I never had that situation

[hollow kraken]

do ff14 60 day game cards work for ps4 as well?

[lone totem]

sure

game time accumulated for an account is handled on their side

so it works amongst all available platforms

[deft quiver]

is there anything i can reflect farm in pyros before lvl 41?

at 36 rn

[lone totem]

Pyros is 35 to 50, right?

[deft quiver]

ye

but those sprites everyone farms are lvl 48 so 41 is best time to go there

otherwise ill get little to no exp

[hollow kraken]

Thanks

[lone totem]

the best sprites I am assuming are in the volcano

[deft quiver]

ye

[lone totem]

I remember farming Level 43 ember sprites somewhere in the southern most area

during heat waves

using Reflect

and there was like Level 40 or Level 41 ice ones in the same area but a bit more north

during a blizzard

[deft quiver]

damn

blizzard in 30m

and heatwave in 54m

[lone totem]

I think there are wind ones on the right side of the map

and near them are thunder

[deft quiver]

alright, ill go look around

still need to explore the map

[lone totem]

I remember someone making a map for this stuff actually

lemme see if I can find one

ye

looks like I was right

[deft quiver]

and reflect only works on sprites?

or are there any other magic only monsters?

[rotund wing]

will you still be able to get the hw relics after EW?

[lone totem]

it can work on any monster that deals magical attacks

however, only sprites as far as I know deal auto attacks that are magical

[deft quiver]

yeah are there any other magic only ones?

ah ok

[lone totem]

that are in Eureka Pyros

[limpid matrix]

Sorry i have question
Can we check density of our relic HSQ weapon progression

[lone totem]

sure, it might be a bit more difficult due to the crunch but it shouldn't be to a point that it would render the quest impossible

[lone totem]

what is HSQ?

[limpid matrix]

Wait i mean HSQ

HSW*

[hasty musk]

the abbreviation for heavensward is just HW

[lone totem]

maybe I'm just not familiar with the acronym, are you talking about the Anima weapon questline?

for Heavensward?

because in that quest line, I believe you are given a key item that allows you to view the amount of symbols that are revealed

each symbol lights up as you pass the required amount of light for it, and once all symbols are lighted you complete the weapon

[crystal ingot]

funny question, would the cassie earring be better than another level 70 earring for blue mage? i know haste helps red mage and samurai in eureka, but with 70 being the cap for blue mage would it be any good?

[zenith gust]

im halfway through 4.0 (i think, at least) and I suddenly remembered the ||machine in the middle of dravanian hinterlands waking up in a heavensward cutscene||. Is that the raid for 3.0 and should I run it?

[modest igloo]

it is, and if you want to

doesnt affect the msq much but there's referances to it here and there

[patent citrus]

it also unlocks normal raid roulette

[lone totem]

Haste only applies while in Eureka

[patent citrus]

help you get more poetics daily

[crystal ingot]

ohhh that's fair, i'm just trying to squeeze any use of it out i can get lol

[patent citrus]

also the story is nice, it's alexander raid questline

but you'll need to unlock flying to finish the questline

[lone totem]

I would ignore it and continue progressing the MSQ (assuming you want to be able to do Endwalker pre-release)

[zenith gust]

gotcha i actually remembered it because of the cutscene with ||estinien looking at a huge crater or something||

[patent citrus]

if you played previous FF before, you knew what alexander looks like

[lone totem]

and then go back to it when you feel like you want to do it

[zenith gust]

yeah i might just do MSQ

i just might finish 5.0 before endwalker

also do i not need to do the job quests? I'm getting the skills as soon as I level up

[patent citrus]

!faq msqtracker

[zenith gust]

compared to how 2.0 and 3.0 where the skills have to unlocked

[zinc orbit]

MSQ Tracker image guide

1. Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.

2. An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.

By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.

Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/4dgmnpH.jpg

[patent citrus]

these 2, finish once it's popped up

[zenith gust]

yeah the thing is I used to do the Job quests for the skills pre level 60

lvl 60 onwards im getting them as soon as i level up

[storm lance]

there are skills unlocked at lv60/70 etc quests

[zenith gust]

alright guess i'll have to squeeze them in

I just got to meet ||Hien||

[shut panther]

70 job quest gives you the last ability

After that job quests are not important, but role quests are introduced and are required to finish msq

[limpid matrix]

Yes anima quest weapon sorry for a bit late respond

I was wondering if i can check the progression of weapon aetheric density in game?

[patent citrus]

straight to standard touch?

[minor fulcrum]

If you don't need to combo, using great strides into standard is fine to finish it

[patent citrus]

the NPC should gave you some sort of compass

that you can use and it will show a picture of your progress

[limpid matrix]

Oh cool thank you

[patent citrus]

however I don't quite remember if it puts it in the inventory/key items

[limpid matrix]

I see the compass now

[patent citrus]

ok ty ty

[minor fulcrum]

GS is 100% bonus, so it doesn't use durability and raises standard to 200% for reference

[minor fulcrum]

As always, feel free to play around in teamcraft to see what rotations you can do. Some of those wont always work because your gear may not be hq

[patent citrus]

ok, yeah

I'm trying to refresh my memory

ty ty

[deft quiver]

is there any way to try out a new character before buying a fantasia?

$10, so wouldnt wanna change to something i dont like

[patent citrus]

buy a retainer fantasia

[deft quiver]

mainly bc i wanna see how it fits with glams i got

[patent citrus]

and play around with your retainer

[deft quiver]

how much do those cost

[patent citrus]

afaik around 5k gil

depends on your server, they are cheap

[deft quiver]

oh gil

oh ez

aight thanks

[supple pebble]

What do you guys recommend someone tyring tro level alt jobs. I have already exhausted my MSQ options.

[pure zenith]

dungeon spam for tanks/healers
potd/hoh for dps

[patent citrus]

!faq altlvlguide

[pure zenith]

also your daily roulettes

[zinc orbit]

Leveling Guide for alt jobs

https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/wiki/leveling

[supple pebble]

Thank you both vielen and ringabel

will take a look at that guide

[pure zenith]

also also if its an arr class
fates and hunting logs till 15/16

[supple pebble]

Ive been spamming dungeons, but my brain is starting to fry.

[patent citrus]

yeah, take it easy

also make sure you unlock all optional leveling dungeon

[supple pebble]

need to get this DRK so i can get this glamour i've been wanting to get (because this is the only reason why i level a class.) but yknow, dungeon spam go brrrr

[pure zenith]

unless the glamour is specifically a dark knight glam you could always just get gunbreaker at 60 and grind it with that

[patent citrus]

DRK is pretty unique

none of other tank have purple-ish ambience from their weapons

[supple pebble]

Its DRK glam.

[upper cove]

Totally valid reason

[deft quiver]

do fates give blu good xp?

[upper cove]

No

[last mural]

Nope

[upper cove]

Blu xp bonus only applies to normal overworld mobs

[last mural]

a single mob of your same level gives the SAME xp as the FATE

meanwhile the ads inside the fate gives piss poor xp

[supple pebble]

Get yourself a friend with like 510-520 GS. Then go to kholusia and kill level 70 mobs.
Use your blu to tag it, dont be in a pt, your friend kills it. ????????? 350k exp per mob

[summer haven]

to level blu just grab sticky tongue use that on enemies while a freind kills them (lvl70 enemies)

[last mural]

I think u mean Flying Sardine?

Sticky Tongue seems like a reckless way to tag a mob

[patent citrus]

😹

[summer haven]

sticky tongue worked better for me than flying sardine cause it would miss

[last mural]

Hmm? Flying Sardine can miss?

[patent citrus]

no hehe

[last mural]

Never happened to me before... wierd

[patent citrus]

if you are only tagging

[summer haven]

weird

[patent citrus]

but sticky tongue stun

can do either I guess

[last mural]

Sticky Tongue also has a cast time while Flying Sardine is instant... but to each their own i guess

[marsh cosmos]

Okay, for AST color of the card decides on who it goes to correct?

[boreal storm]

Blue = melee

[marsh cosmos]

I keep forgetting the colors and who it corresponds to

Blue is melee
Purple is ranged

Gotta nail that into my head

[worn crag]

the tooltip of the card also states the %

[sly tendon]

for the anima weekly singing cluster quest, can i do it on my alt job?

or does it have to be the job that started the quest

[patent citrus]

any

[sly tendon]

so basically just do lvling roulette daily on alt jobs

4x and it will be done

[patent citrus]

queue with role in need for extra 7k gil or something

or level your alt

[sly tendon]

oic, just something we get while grinding normally

got it, thanks

[hazy totem]

Does EW preorder earring works on eurekas elemental exp?

[patent citrus]

nope

you need to get that exp potion for eureka

for exp boost

[hazy totem]

Yeah im using that already

Just thought imma preorder for that sole purpose

Well that's garbage :/

[faint flare]

Eureka is elemental xp

Which is different

[hazy totem]

Aye

Well I'm at 52 now so final stretch anyway, reflect farming should get me there in few hours today. Still a shame on earring not working

[atomic jewel]

What class is most like metal gear rising's raiden?

[patent citrus]

samurai with augmented law order katana

and SHB pvp armor, it's pretty close to MGS's raiden

[atomic jewel]

@patent citrus ty

[upper tree]

!iglam Filibuster's Hood of Casting

[zinc orbit]

**Filibuster's Hood of Casting** **:** Head

Required Level

60

Dyable?

No

Images of glamour items by Gamer Escape.

[leaden ginkgo]

is bozja gear il525 better than HQ il520 ? craft

[modest igloo]

ye

[upper tree]

Is this undyable? Is there alternative that can be dyed?

[atomic jewel]

I wonder if I could get my samurai to 80 though

Since its level 53

Before EW

[modest igloo]

unless it messes with meld priority @leaden ginkgo

[patent citrus]

no need to rush

[atomic jewel]

Can I still get that armor

[leaden ginkgo]

nah just alt jop

[twilit arch]

yes undyeable and no there is no shared model that is

[modest igloo]

then yeah higher ilvl good

[patent citrus]

the pvp armor will be available in EW, no need to rush

just do your roulettes daily with your SAM

[leaden ginkgo]

thanks

[patent citrus]

it'll reach 80 eventually

[atomic jewel]

Tru

[patent citrus]

do highest levelling dungeon when you have extra time

[atomic jewel]

I wonder if I need to get to a specific pvp level though

[patent citrus]

no no, if you do daily frontline daily

[atomic jewel]

What about POTD? Or HOH?

[patent citrus]

you'll cap it quick enough

[atomic jewel]

Sweet

[patent citrus]

yeah sure, if that's your thing

but do the daily challenge frontline daily

[atomic jewel]

I think a dungeon will be better though

[patent citrus]

so you can accumulate that wolf marks

[leaden ginkgo]

once ew release the boost cap will be lv 80 With the same price ?

[modest igloo]

yeah, same as the non-sale price

[leaden ginkgo]

Ty

[stone oriole]

how to i even use deep vigour as a miner?
i can't get a chain above 3, 4 if i use solid reason

[obsidian patio]

Use on nodes with more than 4 gathering attempts

[stone oriole]

ah i didn't even realise there were those

mb

[obsidian patio]

It’s not a skill you really make use of

[rugged thicket]

can i do second T4 solo?

[stone oriole]

are 4+ nodes rare then

[rugged thicket]

currently helping someone thru it rn

[obsidian patio]

You need a job with good burst damage to solo nael

[rugged thicket]

WAR?

NIN?

[obsidian patio]

Yeah

[past flower]

help ?

[obsidian patio]

Save all your DPS tools until after the golems

[open coral]

With?

[hasty musk]

why did you post that image lol

[open coral]

Wanted attention, maybe?

[past flower]

[open coral]

But there's no question, so not much we can do about that.

[heavy wadi]

did you post the wrong image?

[open coral]

If you just want to spam emotes and gifs, you can do that in #not-ffxiv-discussion or better, #memes-and-shitposting

If you have an actual question... just ask it.

[boreal storm]

Not even gonna delete the pic, are they?

[atomic jewel]

How much pvp will I have to play to get the late Allagan set?

And could I get it traded to me

[heavy wadi]

no you can't get it traded to you

[atomic jewel]

Rip

[heavy wadi]

pretty much no armors in this game that you can acquire are tradeable

[atomic jewel]

How many hours of pvp will it take to get the set?

[patent citrus]

daily frontline gives decent job exp

[heavy wadi]

and the answer is... a pretty decent amount of pvp

[atomic jewel]

Fuck

[heavy wadi]

pvp is basically rng

[patent citrus]

just do it daily like roulette

to level your samurai

[heavy wadi]

^

[atomic jewel]

;-;

[boreal storm]

14k?, for the set. that’s real easy to get

[atomic jewel]

It's 300 marks for a win

That would take a long time

[modest igloo]

thats literally like 2 weeks of frontline roulette

[atomic jewel]

Oh

[modest igloo]

since it gives like 1k a pop

[boreal storm]

No

You get 500 for 3rd, 1k for 1st

[patent citrus]

2 weeks??? i cap wolf mark so often

[atomic jewel]

Idk

Hopefully I'll get enough

[boreal storm]

Literally just do frontline, it EZ

[modest igloo]

talkin about the roulette itself not the win/loss thing

[patent citrus]

yeah, in frontline just stick with your alliance and burst people who walk by himself or walk outside their alliance range

and grab towers

[modest igloo]

but yeah even if you lose HARD its still 1.5k wolf marks a day

[boreal storm]

They said it’s 300 marks for winners and I was correcting them

[modest igloo]

ah

maybe that's feast?

[heavy wadi]

for feast, yeah

[rigid wedge]

Is the weekly fashion report only available between a narrow timeframe, or are you able to turn in a fashion report at any point in time until the next reset?

[boreal storm]

Friday to early Tuesday for turn in

[lapis laurel]

fri to tue

[rigid wedge]

I see, thank you.
Was trying to help a friend do their weekly report, but uh... obviously I was missing some details.

[lapis laurel]

I have a question about endwalker, I got two keys for endwalker and i've used the bonus key, says i have endwalker early access. Do i need to use the other key just yet

[boreal storm]

You can’t yet

EW isn’t out

[jovial bridge]

What's the difference between the complete edition and shadowbringers edition? The complete edition says it includes A Realm Reborn and the Heavensward, Stormblood and Shadowbringers expansion packs. But they are on sale for the same price?

[lapis laurel]

So i can use the bonus item but for the expansion i have to wait for release right

[boreal storm]

ShB Collector’s edition has bonus stuff

And is just ShB and SB

[jovial bridge]

So beginners only need to buy complete edition?

[lapis laurel]

Oh, thanks this is the first time i did a pre order, even during sb and shb i bought those two after the release

[rugged thicket]

can i do final T2 solo?

[boreal storm]

You might as well wait for EW complete edition to come out

[modest igloo]

ye

[patent citrus]

can do all coil solo

[jovial bridge]

They prob won't bundle it with Complete Edition, right?

[lapis laurel]

when you buy shadowbringers you get the past expansions as well

[twilit arch]

endwalker will be bundled into complete

once it releases

[patent citrus]

use return skill

and do the other side

[boreal storm]

Old complete gets removed

[lapis laurel]

so when you buy endwalker you will be getting the previous ones

[boreal storm]

New complete replaces it

[jovial bridge]

Oooooh! didn't know that!

[lapis laurel]

so i think if you're new just go on with the starter content for now, it should take you a while to finish arr

[jovial bridge]

It won't go 60% sale so soon right? Looking to play more story this winter.

[twilit arch]

Complete Edition is always updated to include the latest expansion when it releases. its intended to be an easy one in all buy for new players to get everything

no

its Highly unlikely there will be a sale on complete/endwalker after release

there's tiny chance that maybe christmas may see a sale

[boreal storm]

You save 4 bucks just waiting to November

[twilit arch]

but generally, expac doesnt go on sale shortly after release

[lapis laurel]

most new releases dont yeah

if you want to see a significant drop in price during a sale you'd have to wait for an entire year or so

[jovial bridge]

I see....... I want to play after free trial story ends so it's better to buy complete edition now then for cheaper?

[boreal storm]

If you wanna, it’s your money

[jovial bridge]

Since once complete bundles with endwalker, there's not gonna be a sale lol

[humble radish]

hello, how long does it take transfer world?

[lapis laurel]

If you think about it, its gonna take you quite a long time before you reach end of shadowbringers as well

[jovial bridge]

True :< one year's wait for the next sale LOL

TY 🙏

[honest anvil]

can you farm atma in a party?

[leaden imp]

Can we buy the complete edition through square enix, then preorder endwalker in amazon?

[lapis laurel]

Might take you two months to finish all the way up to shb anyway

[lapis laurel]

Ok hold on let me get this right you're on trial right, havent bought starter edition

[jovial bridge]

Yes!

[lapis laurel]

Ok, yea nvm you should defo just get the complete edition now lmao

later on its 19$+39$, you could just get the whole thing rn for 24 bucks

youre really jsut saving 4$

i think though once you change from trial to retail version you'll need game time though, you should get a month when you buy it

[jovial bridge]

I'm bit slow... whats 19$+39$?

[lapis laurel]

imma round that up tell ya thats 60$

[boreal storm]

It’s 60

[jovial bridge]

Oh! I mean what is 19 and what's the 39?

[boreal storm]

19.99 + 39.99

[jovial bridge]

Endwalker and Complete Edition?

[boreal storm]

Starter + EW

[lapis laurel]

Endwalker + old expansions for 39, Basefor 19

[white tapir]

are the tales of adventure sales staying around up to 11/19?

[jovial bridge]

Just realized you're talking USD and I'm CAD. Makes sense now!

Thanks so much for helping 🙇‍♀️ The community's really kind.

[icy kiln]

a super cool mentor just told me something and I wanna see if it tracks. I've been running Bardam's Mettle trying to get The Coming Storm. I'd been passing on all the aiming gear since my MCH is already in lvl 66 gear. If I have all the aiming gear from a dungeon, does the weapon have a higher chance of dropping?

[restive nacelle]

Hey, I am looking to try the free trial on this game, will it be enough for me to make my opinion about the game and see if i want to keep on going?

[boreal storm]

Pretty much

[icy kiln]

(i'm 10 runs in and will kick myself for not grabbing those gears)

[faint flare]

You get a guaranteed piece for your job at the end of levelling dungeons, no duplicates

[glass oxide]

Yes

[boreal storm]

HW is the point where most go: “I’m buying this game”

[faint flare]

So If you have all but the item you're looking for, you're guaranteed to get it at the end

[icy kiln]

I need to kick myself then lol

Appreciate it

[restive nacelle]

and i have access to heavensward in the free trial? or like a part of it

[icy kiln]

all of it

[faint flare]

All of it

[leaden imp]

thanks

[restive nacelle]

sounds way better than the 20lvl free trial of wow

[icy kiln]

you can play all the way up to the start of Stormblood

you can level every available class to 60

all before you have to even think about pay

[restive nacelle]

is there a character limit?

[modest igloo]

A paid player in 2015 has less content than a FT player in 2021

[restive nacelle]

wait i've heard you can play all the classes on the same character is that true?

[faint flare]

1 character per server, 8 max

Yes

[modest igloo]

Yep

[boreal storm]

You don’t need Alts

[restive nacelle]

holy shit

[modest igloo]

I have everything maxed on mine

[restive nacelle]

so ur telling me

if i want to play heal a day and tank another i can?

[faint flare]

!whoami

[lapis laurel]

you do gotta seperately level them of course

[faint flare]

See

[modest igloo]

Press a button and yeah

[faint flare]

All jobs maxed

[boreal storm]

All 80s

[restive nacelle]

poggers

Is there a max level on this game too?

[modest igloo]

Ye

[faint flare]

80 atm

90 in endwalker

[boreal storm]

80 soon to be 90

[lapis laurel]

90 in a few weeks

Hot damn i didnt know the bot checks this

and i wanted to know last question so i don't annoy you too much is there extremely complicated pve thing? like M+ on wow?

[modest igloo]

Oh yes

[faint flare]

Savage is the raid difficulty

With ultimates being for the highest end players

[modest igloo]

This is a mechanic 12 mins into an ultimate

[lapis laurel]

Savage raids and Ultimate content for the truly masochistic but its fun

[restive nacelle]

ah

well if u have spreadsheet to learn bosses i can't argue on the difficulty

[faint flare]

Spreadsheets and timelines

[restive nacelle]

also this game is a bit old, will the story be worth paying attention too? or is it a shit fiest like wow (sorry for comparing it too much at wow)

[modest igloo]

Omg this games story is 10/10

[lapis laurel]

story is one of the more important segments id recommend sitting through it

[faint flare]

The story is literally the main point of the game

[modest igloo]

It’s also the main feature

Can’t raid without doing story

[faint flare]

It's like 80% of the content

And focus

[boreal storm]

The current arc is ending soon

[restive nacelle]

oh so they keep on adding stories in between expansion too

[boreal storm]

But oh what an arc it’s been

[modest igloo]

It’s also linear

[faint flare]

The story is linear

[modest igloo]

It’s one long story

[restive nacelle]

oh okay

[faint flare]

Building on the current story

[ripe hound]

Yeah it’s also stacked on top of each other

[patent citrus]

story is the main content

everything is locked behind the story

[faint flare]

Each expansion is basically the next episode of a Netflix series

[patent citrus]

others are just side content

[restive nacelle]

xD

[modest igloo]

700 msq quests from lvl 1 to 5.3 lol

[ripe hound]

But yeah

It is somewhat of a challenge if you are non native English speaking

Or Japanese

[restive nacelle]

i am a non native english speaker but i don't have issue understanding i guess it will be fine

i'll try it out seems fun

[ripe hound]

Yeah should be good then

Yeah, it’s free anyway

[restive nacelle]

Also if i get to buy the game after all should i wait for endwalker to pay less?

[ripe hound]

Yeah

[restive nacelle]

rather than paying shadowbrigners then endwalker

[ripe hound]

Recommended to just play free trail

Then buy after EW release

[restive nacelle]

it will have all the previous expansion under it right?

[ripe hound]

If you want the social features, you can buy base game

Yeah

Base game includes ARR and HW

[restive nacelle]

okay great i don't have any more question

thanks a lot 😄

[ripe hound]

Ayy have fun

[white tapir]

So anything on sale currently at the online store will last till 11/19? Including the lvl 70 journeys?

[neat patrol]

Is GS in it's current state, how it was on release, or have they updated and added games/features in it over time?

[icy kiln]

Dumb question, but this is the case regardless of how you queue for the dungeon, correct?

[twilit arch]

yes

you will still be given a piece of loot from the leveling dungeon at the end if you do it unsync

[patent citrus]

is there any updated duty list where I can use duty recorder feature?

or is it just jade stoa since sb and hasn't been updated since?

[twilit arch]

its The Puppets' Bunker and Eden's Promise: Eternity (Savage)

consolewiki is grossly outof date

[scarlet hinge]

what does it mean when u don't meet the strength requirement for a potd floor

[scarlet sandal]

There used to be a really annoying game that they removed

[twilit arch]

you need more aetherpool

[scarlet sandal]

Or I just haven't seen it in forever but I'm pretty sure they removed it

[manic flare]

sorry i am blind

[sly sedge]

Hello! I hope someone can help.

I currently own Stormblood on Steam, However I am looking to getting back into the game before Endwalker, if I pre-order Endwalker (on steam) will I be able to play Shadowbringers?

[boreal storm]

Not until November 19th

[sly sedge]

So if I want to play between now and Endwalker I have to purchase Shadowbringers?

[boreal storm]

Correct

[sly sedge]

Well thats stupid

[minor fulcrum]

Not really

[boreal storm]

The game doesn’t come out until then

[minor fulcrum]

you're getting stb and shb for free by buying endwalker

losing 2wks of playtime isn't a lot

[boreal storm]

So the included expansions aren’t usable until then

[flat basalt]

Is Stoke Sky Sea measuring at 100% up time on boss or does it do some sort of average?

[boreal storm]

!faq sss

[zinc orbit]

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

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

[pallid hearth]

Guys if I buy the Tales of Adventure SCH, do I get the same level SMN too?

[flat basalt]

Aren’t they two distinct classes?

[boreal storm]

They share levels

[sly sedge]

The reason it's stupid is because if I want to play now and get caught up in the next 3 weeks I have to pay full price for Shadowbringers.

[boreal storm]

But you don’t get the quests for the other one completed

[pallid hearth]

Oh I got both lv 70 but I still have to complete the others' quest?

[boreal storm]

Yep

[sly sedge]

nvm I'll just shelve the idea of coming back again

[pallid hearth]

Cool thanks!

[dull willow]

How do i connect my lodestone character?

[stone oriole]

ok so the msq just went from level 46 to 49 and i'm 47, what should i do to get those 2 levels? never had to do anything except msq so far

[boreal storm]

Roulettes

[stone oriole]

should i unlock more dungeons first or just do the ones i got from msq

[dull willow]

Just do duty roulettes

Easy xp

[boreal storm]

Aurum vale is a lvl 47 dungeon you can unlock

[dull willow]

Im level 71 and im just into post hw lol

[patent citrus]

If you want to level with highest level dungeon you have to unlock those optional leveling dungeon

[leaden ginkgo]

whats thr place to check prime time for buying a house?

[stone oriole]

thanks

[patent citrus]

If you just want to do duty roulette daily, can unlock normal raid roulette and can continue msq like usual

[stone oriole]

so with roulettes, will it put me into any dungeon i've unlocked

[leaden ginkgo]

How to get Missile Blue mage spell? is it possible to farm as solo or need full team?

[stone oriole]

or just level appropriate ones

[patent citrus]

Yeah,. But the bonus is only available daily

[boreal storm]

Any, but the daily bonus makes up for it

[stone oriole]

i don't really wanna get synced to like sub 35

[patent citrus]

So you only do it once a day, you only want the bonus

[stone oriole]

ok so i do 1 roulette for the daily and then just queue aurum vale

[patent citrus]

So even if you are queued into sastasha as LV 79, you still get decent exp from the daily bonus

Yeah

[boreal storm]

Are you a dps? Because Potd also exists

[stone oriole]

yeah blm

[boreal storm]

If you haven’t unlocked it yet

[stone oriole]

oh the deep dungeon

i tried that, got to like floor nine, got no xp and shelved it

[boreal storm]

You get exp every 10 floors

Also don’t try to solo it if you’re not prepared

[stone oriole]

oh lol that close

yeah i was doing it solo

should i get a group for it

[boreal storm]

Matched party is random people

[leaden ginkgo]

if i buy a private house and later choose to relocate, can i relocate it as an FC house?

[twilit arch]

no

[leaden ginkgo]

ok, thanks

So lost actions can’t be changed without deleting what was equipped?

[minor fulcrum]

Yes but you get a ton of memories by doing skirmishes and CEs

[outer mural]

yes

be deliberate with what you want to use

[last kayak]

Is grinding Dalriada the fastest way to get the 15 Raw Emotions for the relic?

[minor fulcrum]

Absolutley not
