is there always at least one dungeon giving bonus light in arr relic?
Are there any that sell well ?
at this point … nothing
I used to just get all equals each item
yeah, seems like it
you get some pocket gil at best >.>
Does the stormblood trailer contain spoilers for the HW patch
yeah, they used to cost like 2.5k each 😹
Not from what I remember, mostly just action shots
Cool
Doesn't the very end of HW set up what you're going to be doing in SB tho?
It feels like a grey area for spoilers that I'm leaning towards spoilery for
ah yeah if you consider that spoiler, then don't watch the trailer at all
yes, i assume they're asking about the sb trailer since the hw one is pretty spoilery for the end of ARR
sb trailer really isnt spoilery at all
just continue doing msq and job quest
it's like eeeehhhhhh
tho depends on which one you're talking about tbh
because cgi sb
has absolutely no spoilers tbh
where you're going is what I mean
iirc, you don't really have an idea where you're going after HW until end of HW
🤷♂️ showing off kugane isn't a big spoiler to me

lol
i can get more than 1 atma for my other zodiac weapon right?
it's not a spoiler.
that's really not a spoiler my dude
yes
you can prefarm all the atmas you want
hmm, must be unlucky then
rng do be rng
||lyse’s ||appearance might be spoilery
10 fate and not a single drop
yeah if you don't like any single shred of spoilers, just continue doing MSQ and job quest
treat it like single player game
don't watch the trailer
Are you farming them with your Zenith weapon out?
If you are, then it's just bad RNG.
With no other context, the trailers aren't considered spoilers. They're literally just previews that were released well in advance of the actual expansion by SE
It's a retroactive spoiler though. At the time, we had no way of knowing the relevance of any of the things that happened.
And if you're avoiding story spoilers, there's no way to know the context for what you're seeing. It could just be "ooh, cool stuff happening for Trailer Purposes"
not really the channel to argue it, but its a huge spoiler even without context
HW trailer literally has a spoiler warning
Speaking of aggro, assuming healer and dps are on the same level stat/skill wise, which one will have higher aggro?
Or it varies wildly?
The dps should have higher aggro
Woohoo Bard at 60 now, and Machinist is at 80, and Dancer starts at 60. I should be good to chuck all the 50 and below gear now, yes? (Cause they all share the same and no other classes need their specific gear)
dps in theory should have more
yes
sure if you don't want any of it for glam
For the left side stuff, yes. Hold on to the accessories though if you're planning to level NIN.
Fantastic! Nah glam can wait. I want order in my Armoury Chest xD
Yes some are "several classes" or something so not them ofc!
NIN is the only other job that shares accessories with the ranged physical dps.
That's why NIN is the first melee I level after I finish the ranged physical classes.
Because I, too, prefer order in my armory
So, ummm... If I complete the original 5 ranks of the hunting log, is that it or are there bonus ranks with expansions or something?
That's it, per class.
no
You get the 5 hunt log ranks for all ARR jobs, but then you're done.
Also your gc hunting log
Once you hit level 50, "the Hunt" becomes a different kind of thing.
Where you can pick up daily and weekly marks.
I see. Well... That's nice, though kind of disappointing, I like the hunting log
Get 2nd Lieutenant with your GC and finish ARR, and you can do the Hunt if you really want. It rewards a different type of currency, and has three tiers per expansion.
You can pick up daily marks and weekly marks, but those objectives are shared across all classes.
I am familiar with the Hunt, I am already doing post-Heavensward, I just realized I never finished the last few entries on my hunting log
Ah, then yeah, no more Hunt Logs for you... unless you have other ARR jobs that you haven't leveled.
I do, I'm "only" doing 3 on my first playthrough
WAR for main and dungeons, DRG and BLM for trials-raids, depending if I'm in a melee or a caster mood. DRG wins usually tho, haha
can anyone tell me please how to unlock Kurenai for custom deliveries? i cant seem to find the quest None Forgotten, None Forsaken
are you trying to pick it up on a doh/dol?
Have you completed the prerequisite quests?
well yea i checked every npc from the wiki and i dont have any quests
and where are you going to look
Is it a bad idea to lvl up my crafter classes only with the ishgard stuff to lv. 80 and don´t make any class quest? 😄
If I glam something into dresser, and later wanna remove it, does the removal cost a prism as well?
No
Class quests give some important skills for crafters
no, it's what I did. but you should eventually do your crafter quests up to level 65 for manipulation, that's the only thing you really need that's gated behind quests
it's far easier to complete the doh/dol quests if you max them out first and then go back and do them later
Okay then i will make them after the lv time ^^ Thanks
Do you need to be synched to learn JKick from Alexander - The Burden of the Son?
No, but syncing makes the learn rate 100%
Ah. Thanks!
All BLU spells work so that sync = 100% learn rate. unsync is lower but still doable.
Okay. I wasn't sure. Thanks for the answers! 😄
Is there any caster gear that looks like this
#glamour-discussion probably better to ask in there
Yea tru
The short answer is "yes".
There's BLM gear that looks like that.
Or AST, if you want the things in his hands.
Couldn't tell you what it's called, but I know it exists.
is there a way to check ocean fishing timer without going to the quest starter ?
It's every 2 hours
There are timers online
mind show me 1 of the link, i can't find any on google
Schedule for upcoming ocean fishing voyages with information on blue fish, achievements, and more.
thx
How do I know if I get atma for a FATE? And where can I get the most/them the fastest
RNG
get a dps class and farm 10 of each if u want to make all the relic
if u can find ppl to do it with you then it will be way faster
but making friend is just as hard as clearing ultimate, so might not b for everyone
whats the best food for white mage?
usually smoked chicken for the extra DPS
okey 👍
Is there a fixed schedule for critical engagement in Bozja?
will change in a few weeks but such is the curse of the expac
Or is it completely random?
manually spawned? You mean I need to trigger something?
Which is why they don't appear often in Zadnor cause no one spawns them
Yes
Kill Magitek mobs
Aka go cluster farm
That spawns CEs
So this is, a very very very specific wonder i got, that i unno if it has a proper answer but i wanna ask
Once in a while, i see a player... "refresh" on the spot. Like, reload
What dat about
what do i do when my inventory is full?
What do you mean by "refresh"?
clear it up?
Sell them, discard them, store them elsewhere
Each CE has their own CD
you can sell stuff, discard it, put it in your chocobo saddlebag, retainers...

there's no storage or smthn?
And there's like 3 per zone
Like, you see the character
They "Vanish" , the model, then load back in
But in like
a second
I see, no wonder I got like, 3 in a row one time
you can have two retainers for free, which have 175 inventory slots each, you have your chocobo saddlebag which has 70 slots
free trial oof
ah
If a CE is up and another is ready to be spawned, it will que
yeah then just your chocobo
i can use chocobo then
And spawn immediately after
what do i do if i want the items then?
i would recommend selling a lot of stuff though, you've likely ended up with a lot of materials for very niche crafts
that you will never make
Or just sell them. Do some research if you're going to need the item
Cool! Thanks! Basically I just have to stay there and farming Bozjan Clusters and CE will come naturally
For that zone yes
they sell for like 1 gil tho... feels like a waste, isn't there some sort of storage in the inn with idk 400 pages?
sounds convenient
nope
awh well
You'll need Zone 3 magitek for zone 3 CEs
but believe me, you've probably got a lot of just 1 or 2 items
And such
that you can farm again in seconds later
it's far better for you to clear them out rather than trying to save them
nothing you've got now will be unobtainable later
does this apply to armory chest items too?
pretty much yeah
Glamour dresser has 400 slots, but that's for armor and weapons only
some may be a bit more of a pain to get later than crafting materials
but if you're a low level, a lot of what you've got can be crafted for dirt cheap/bought again at a vendor
or otherwise gotten from a dungeon
i see
Got it! Thanks~!
Should i keep my glamour dispellers? They seem to be worth 500 gil in the ingame market
not sure why
You can buy them for 500 from vendors, but sell them for 12
Hey guys, I'm seeing a lot of recommendations for buying tales of adventure to skip the post ARR slog, is it really that bad?
oh my bad i saw the shop selling price instead
since ARR is the main set-up for the rest of the story, it's not recommended
If the number in receiving is big in comparison to the number in sending. Does that mean the issue is from the server? ( Ping question. )
but also it'd be like telling someone to read a 10000 page book before reading a series like lord of the rings
personally i liked the lore from it, still doing it, its not as bad as people make it out to be. Its just not particularly "good" either imo
assuming u mean the mainstory atleast
What's the issue? The sending/receiving thing in the game's ui is kinda useless
esp when compared to what comes after as well
This is the third day the game is lagging/dcing with me
Light DC
Alright I'll probably run it, if it drags on then I think I'll buy the skip. Thanks!
small characters from 2.0 are making apperences and affecting the game's story even today
why are the ones on the right glowing?
High quality
just skip all the cutscenes. It's a ton of fetch quests.
Ping is usually checked by pinging the servers on command line or checking in Resource Monitor if you're on Windows. Beyond that you can try asking in #technology-discussion for more advanced troubleshooting.
2.55
err anyone?
i feel like someone who would do ARR and skip the cutscenes might as well buy the skip lmao
Yeah I'd watch the cutscenes if I had to
true but I'm saying that it's not much of a pain to get through, and the ending of 2.0 is kinda important
ARE they still a lot of fetch quests? yeah, but the setup is what you're there for
I like swords and shields, but paladin seems a little boring, should I level it up some more
so, I just finished revolution, and I just have one question.
when does heavensward begin?
crusty. we've been here before
how far away am I to it?
also watch the EW job actions trailer
just search seventh astral era quests in google
then level what's cool
Sorry
and find the quest that you are on
is it better to play unsync or level sync in the dungeon finder? trying to do second coil turn 4 and fear it is taking a long time even as a dps
oh god....
You won't find people for synched
I still have a VERY long way to go
Unsync for coils. They are not in the roulettes and are also difficult to do with random people (compared to other roulette content anyway)
ok good to know
yeah tried ot do turn 4 and there is this one spot that is impossibel cause the damage
if you're just clearing coils? unsynced 100%. also nael has mechanics that you need at least 2 people for
1, but once you unlock flying it doesn't really matter since flying is always the fastest speed
I'm 71 quests away from heavensward!?
ah, so riding map is useless?
doesnt make flying faster?
It doesn't affect flying
ah
The quests really aren't bad, they include some fun raids
Heavensward doesn't make sense without the setup now
yeah, but it's gonna take a while!
Not really
The quest that becomes available when you've maxed out all the HW beast tribes gives you a dance emote as the reward
as MMOs go, these dailies are really tame
All expansion tribes start at 3
any chocobo racing pros know whether or not attribute gains on rank up will be wasted on capped attributes if you had used food to max them early?
it's not a gargantuan investment of your time
Which melee has the least amount of 1+2+3
HW onwards all start from rank 3 - Friendly
Moogle start at neutral at least, haven't done vanu but yea
Above should be enough evidence
@sleek needle did the whole feeding order step by step
im starting to doubt currant purple even exists
tomorrow we have the live letter right
!ll
!expansion
Doing Beast Tribes for Amalja and one of them is another FATE related one. The FATE doesn't seem to pop. Anything I need to know? Like; don't stand in the FATE are while waiting for it or something?
nope
Best you can do is just clear other fates in the zone to try and give it room to spawn as there can only be so many fates active at once
otherwise just be patient
how do you see what card you have on file for the game
This is probably a stupid question but what job is closest to heavy bowgun in monster hunter
Uh is there any indoor training dummy?
no
Ugh... I want a house real bad now XD
Probably BRD or MCH? I don't really know what the hallmarks of the heavy bowgun in MH are, so beyond the superficial it's hard to say.
Fair enough
Anyone know when the new endwalker song will be digitally released
The soundtrack for EW 6.0 will probably be released 6-12 months after the release of the expansion.
most ppl will rip the music from the game quite fast but official release will take a while
ok so the best way is to get the vinyl @open coral
The vinyl is kind of like a collector's edition thing.
Was trying to find on mog but can't see any there, check the email of last payment?
If you just want it to listen to, the best way is to just... wait.
it says it comes with a digital download with the viynl
Included with purchase: Passcode to download the MP3 versions of the tracks
- The passcode needed to access the download has a limit on the number of times it can be used.
I mean, I guess, yeah, if you want to pay collector's edition dollar amounts for a handful of songs, sure.
i mean it's more of an excuse to buy a record player
whats the class i can do most dmg in one/two skills? like
i get it that bards can do more dmg than a blm but over time and with DoTs etc
but what are the jobs that have like, some skill that do insta dmg?
sam? blm?
SAM, BLM, and MCH are what we term "selfish dps" due to their high personal dps. They have skills that do tons of damage, but bring no other utility to a group.
got it
So if you want big bursts of damage, one of those three is going to be your best bet.
But like all jobs, they have to build up to that point
also, how do ppl get that dps metter and etc that i see on streams? these are plugins?
or the so called "logs"? (idk where to see dem logs)
!faq act
Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.
Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.
It's a mod. It's not allowed by the ToS though. @solid garnet
As noted in the faq, like all mods, it's against ToS, but unless you're using it to harass other players, you won't have any issues.
ohh ok
so what if some friend of mine wanted to test it out, these act is on dalamud plugins ?

See the faq link.

@solid garnet He would probably not get banned as long you don't discuss mods in game.
How do I do shared fates? Google said I needed shared fates to unlock eulmore vendors but nothing else after that…
"Shared FATES" refers to the cumulative number of FATEs completed in each zone.
This can be tracked under the "Travel" Menu.
Ooooo so it’s not some special type of fate then?
As I recall, you need to complete rank 3 Shared FATEs for all six of the ShB zones in order to unlock the Eulmore vendor.
Is there a faster way of levelling retainer than spamming quick exploration ? Because this takes a ridiculously long amount of time
No, not a special type, just normal FATEs, but a stupid number of them.
@solid garnet I do recommend Gshade if you want your game to look prettier.
Like, 100 FATEs per zone
Jfc.
Still.
not something you're meant to grind honestly
took me about 2-3 days to get them all
and i leveled my bard/machinist while doing it
It's 60 just for rank 3, and don't you need 30 for rank 2?
its 66 total
Well I suppose I’ll be done with msq soon so I won’t have anything else to do might as well
rank 2 is 6fates
If I upgrade from a Gladiator to a Paladin, do i start back at level 1 or the level i was at on gladiator?
the level you were at
okie thxss
O I c the purple 💎 are indicative of how many you’ve already done
Okay. Well that makes it less complicated than trying to figure out how many manually.
Okay well thank you all.
Hey, which data center and server should I join?
!faq serverpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
Where in the world do you live
can we move a character to a server that doesn't authorize new characters?
Yes
ah alright thanks, do you guys know a place to search for a guild?,,
!faq c
lodestone community finder
!faq communityfinder
thanks you
You need to have ACT active while you're playing or it won't do anything.
What are the best retainer classes and ventures for making money?
Miner? Botanist? Or a combat class?
Also what ventures do you send them on?
Whatever mats you need
And what sells
Most people do 1 combat and 1 gathering of their pick
Depending which mats they want
Retainers are limited to gathering what you have gathered before right?
do i need a class for every role to finish shb?
Yes, they're basically passive resource generation
No
You only need 1 job, rest is optional

at what point do those role quests show up (like which expansion) and would you recommend doing them all? I keep hearing about them but only have tanks leveled, oop x)
theyre the shadowbringers equivalent to job quests
you need to have done one set to progress the msq to the end
You have to complete at least one role quest series before reaching a certain point towards the end of the 5.0 MSQ
cool cool! thanks
Doing them all just adds some stuff in 5.3

nice, that's really good to know! I might try to do them once I get there (not even done HW so it'll be a while)
im doing msq and the next quest is castrum dungeon but i need avg item lvl 42. what to do?
Job quests
Completing your job quests will rewards you with a five piece set of gear that should be sufficient to get you the ilevel you need.
fyi always do jobquests asap because u also get abilities :)
Use the coffer gear, it’s better
i have gear lvl 39 so the last job quest will probably give me enough for 42
That’s what we’re saying
ye i forgot thejob quest ty
Do they have exp servers
There are not currently any Preferred servers, no
Are there any other dance emotes that're easy to get?
Other than what?
Im level 12 im tryna level up fast
Just do your MSQ
Other than the base /dance emote
Each of the main cities has a
that offers a dance.
!faq contentunlock
Oh, I didn't know that
I always ignored
quests, only ever do the blue ones
is there a separate queue for trial accounts? I've tried a couple of different worlds so far, at different times of the day, and there's always a 35+ queue
I keep forgetting to go do BT stuff XD
No. If servers are overfull trial players simply cannot log on at all.
ah
If i scrap the dyable 60 job gear can i get it back from the salvager?
no
I've always been able to login as trial, there's always a queue for trial players because SE wants to let those who paid in first
Centurio seals in the forgotten knight
the lvl 60 gear is for centurio seals
That's not why there's a queue. Sub players have queues too.
35-50 is pretty average.
I know
It's literally the same queue.
is darnknight a mp managment class
As much as any class is.
I just heard somewhere that there's something about sub players preceding over trial players, unless that's when the servers were all full and at their peek earlier
Can i change my class
Yes, that's the "if servers are overfull then trial players cannot log in" thing.
I wanna be a dps but they keep putting me as tank
What class are you?
Oh yeah, Gladiator is a tank
!faq wondrous tales
So is a Marauder
huh
Gladiator
how do i use this?
Gladiator is a tank.
That's a tank
Yeah, your class is a tank
It can't be dps. Ever.
!faq wondroustails
Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.
Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.
Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!
You can switch class tho
If you want to be dps, you have to be a different class.
Do your lv10 class quest then you can pick up other classes
Im level 12
once you've done your level 10 class quest (the ones that appear below your main scenario quest tracker) you can find quests to become other classes in any major city
Then you just visit the class guilds
which city depends on exactly what class you want to become
Okay...
How do.i find quest
Blue quests
!faq msqtracker
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
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.
In the respective guild
for ex. lancer is a DPS class
They'll have a
icon and be called "So You Want To Be a X"
Do the thing on top and the thing on bottom
if your lv 12, you can just make a new caharacter and pick lancer, which is a melee DPS
TBN gives a free flood/edge when it breaks
i mean drain mp from enemies
so when is endwalker on the 19th supposed to lauch time?
sort of
Whenever the server comes up
The maintenance times will be announced later
the early access for pre-orders will become available on Nov 19, 2021 at (theorized) 5am EST
gotcha
and how do u set things up for the early accees(alrdy imputed code for the earing and such)
For now, that's it.
There will be a pre-download a couple of hours before the servers come back up too.
if you have registered your pre-order, then you're done
the game will be under a 24-48 hour maintenance period
around the 17th and 18th
24 hours
allowing you to download the game
Solidly
oh damn lol
Never 48
they have alot of ways to get mp back
yeah it's always a day
but for some reason you dont get many of teh skills closer the the end
but huh I swear the promotion material said 22
this is my problem with ff14 why do i have to wait so long to get the skill the class needs desperatly
it wouldn't make sense to do official launch on a day besides reset
maybe im getting it confused with the fact early access is a "weekend"
so I internally just assumed it ended on the end of the weekend, the 22nd
lol
probably
yeah cause the the 19th is a friday lol
I just unlocked Urth's Fount. I happened to see a blue quest marker in New Gridania. That wasn't there before. What triggered this quest?
23 is tuesday
Reaching level 50.
!quest primal fear
And completing the 2.0 MSQ
Urianger looks beseechingly in your direction, fear in his eyes.
Urianger
The Waking Sands (X: 6.06 Y: 4.99)
Lewin
Seat of the First Bow (X: 3.56 Y: 3.47)
The Black Wolf's Ultimatum
Who Was That Man in Black
And doing the above quest line
I have had 3 jobs at 80 for a while and done BLU 70. I've been to New Gridania every day cause of leveling and sending my squadron to missions. This is the first time I've seen it. I did just reach Bard 60 tho but wtf...
Then it's because you hadn't done the Primal Fear quest Fuilteach linked
Oh it IS Bard related. Then that explains it
It's not
I've had cleared all quests up to this point. Even the non blue ones. I just leveled bard. That's the only new thing I've done last week.
Still never seen it before.
Clearly not the case.
that's because Primal Fear is in the Waking Sands
Since BRD is not a prerequisite for that quest.
meaning the icon will not appear even on the Thanalan map
you need to actually enter the building
I did get Jack of all Cards recently but that's totally unrelated as well.
which you just happened to do and accept (and complete) the quest
I haven't been in the Waking sands for a while tho
But I have been in New Gridania almost daily
remind me: how many quests can be tracked by the journal actively?
did rdm and stuff get alexander gear or?
30, I think
so if you happened to have 30 quests tracked
and primal fear was in the 31+ range
it would never appear on in gridania
Only 5 will actively appear on your quests list at a time.
And if they're not being tracked on your quests list, there won't be map markers for them.
oh really?
I've had 1 quest tracked since a few months back (Fishing for Famine or whatever it's called) besides that I've been doing Beast Tribe and leveling bard.
o after fighting Odon in Urth's Front is there any other quest that opens up or that it?=
That should be it.
Odin is an EX fight, technically.
Ah right
I seriously only am tracking Feast of Famine (FSH) quest and the Three's a Company BRD quest. All other quest markers are gone, I've done all of them on all maps. No idea how this popped up in here >_>. (Bar the job ones I've not yet leveled obviously).
Quest markers don’t show on the map unless you’re in the zone
Wel las I said, been visiting New Gridania almost daily cause of Squadron leveling. Never saw a blue marker on top of Scarlet before...
It's also possible that you'd picked up the quest, set it to 🚫 , and then recently flagged it again.
What is a good price to charge for the ornate chest piece when savage gets released?
And last few weeks I've been finishing Blue Justice and Jack of all Cards. Nothing else in my focus.
is there a list somewhere for me to compare my Duty Finder to to check that I've unlocked everything or not?
The dungeon, trial etc lists on consolegame
The mentor roulette list has just almost everything but Coils, Savages and Ultimates https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Duty_Roulette#Duty_Roulette:_Mentor
Appreciate it!
how feasible is it to get a L60 job to L80 before EW maintenance drops
see, the first time i got a L60 dps job to L80, i did so with the help of SHB MSQ exp
now i don't have that, and it seems like the stretch between L60-L80 is...well, pretty big
But now you have armoury bonus
!faq altlevelguide
You don't need it
You can use Pixie beast tribes/roulettes/leveling dungeon spam the same way.
Decided to solo potd to get to lvl 50. Still not lvl 50
POTD's advantage for leveling is to spam 51-60 with a group so that you tear through it as fast as possible and get the exp reward at the end
potd should really only be done if you like potd
Does paradigm breach still have any loot limits per week? I thought they removed that in the last patch but I still got a tutorial explaining weekly limits when I unlocked this raid
using it as a way to level with no other end-goal in mind is kinda a waste
Nope. Loot limits have long been removed.
Thanks, guess that message is outdated
it would probably be relevant again when the first EW alliance raid comes out
the message is for the crafted clusters
the once a week claiming system in of itself, while understood, could really use a bit more clarification in general for new players
because there are three different claims lol
technically four
When SHB dropped did Blue mage got new level cap and SB spells on day 1?
No
We just got lvl 70 in patch 5.4 or .5
ah
no, blue mage wasn't expanded until like the middle if I remember
like around 5.3 or 5.4
Hey, does it matter what Deity Patron I choose?
depends on what you mean by matters
there are differences, but none enough to care about
Does it have benefits for certain classes?
No. It's an RP option, just like nameday.
It’s all just RP flavor
The only time deity has an effect is during eternal bonding ceremony
yup
Likewise racial stats are flavor, not actually something that will affect gameplay ever.
So pick a race you like.
If I let's say want to play tank as my main which deity is suited best for that class? I saw in a Wiki that it gives you resistance.
Any of them.
Old info
Resistance isn’t a thing anymore
oh
yeah, resistance is gone
and so are individual defense based on job
so dragoon no longer has the lowest magical resistance in the game
it was stupid anyways, dps jobs taking more damage than other dps jobs even in the same category (melee) was stupid
Basically, everything in character creation is entirely aesthetic. Pick whatever suits your fancy.
for the most part, yeah
race can affect stats but they are so small they almost don't matter, but they still matter to the most die-hard min-maxers
Race does not affect stats.
Nobody picks a race for the stats.
Not even min-maxers.
No. They really don't.
Those 3 stat differences literally don’t matter
don't start this argument here, its 1-2 stat difference
its generally not significant enough to matter
Which class is best suited for tanking? I heard that Gladiator is pretty good at it.
there are no documented differences.
any tank, lol
tanks are tanks and not anything else
In this game, every class has a specific role.
this is a trinity mmo afterall.
They can't be anything other than that role.
Marauder and gld are your first 2 tanks
Conjurer is a healer
The rest are different flavors of dps: caster, melee, or ranged physical
Thanks for the advice I think i'll start with Gladiator
If you don't like it, you can always just pick up another class on the same character. You can ultimately be everything on one character.
You lose no progress in the story, just have to level the class from whatever level it stats at.
Is there any way to get the launcher to save your password?

Ok. Does it matter which server I pick? Is there a "begginner" server in chaos?
Thank you
!faq serverpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
Doesnt matter, all servers got equal population
plus content is generally crossworld
so even if we're on different servers on chaos, we could end up in the same raid
Ah good to know thanks.
Basically, since there are no servers with the "preferred" status right now, you can just go with whatever server it defaults to for you.
The server Ragnarok says: (EU Legacy) what does that mean?
Nothing
It just means it's a server that's existed since 1.0
It was around during the [redacted] days
Unless you're magically a 1.0 player
Ah ok
Heya
i have a question ❓ what's the best job distribution for 7 retainers for max ressources ?
Any combination of BTN/MIN
If you do 2 of each, one will be alone
fisher is a bit hit or miss when it comes to retainers
sometimes they can be extremely good but thats entirely dependent on if fish is needed for the end-game crafts
would personally recommend a combat retainer for the last one
since mob drops are usually a pita to get
Man I'm in shadowbringer and now I'm confused with Astral and Umbral.
Is there something like Excalibur in this game?
The ShB 5.0 MSQ forced us to reevaluate some of the fundamental "truths" of FFXIV lore, so we're getting back on track!

Hi! Do the irregular tomestones of lore drop from the duty roulette as well?
is there a good way to look at weapons? i cant quite figure it out on eozrea collection
Yes
If you get put into one
That gives tomes
Garland tools
yes. this means msq roulette effectively is guaranteed to give you mogtomes
7 or 10
Trying to gear lvl 50 miner retainer via vendors anyone can help me locate the right vendor? Too lazy to craft for my retainer
Without crafting your own gear or doing old ARR endgame stuff, you're only option is the 45/48 gear from regular vendors, like Iron Thunder in Limsa.
If you push them to 51 one though you can get some new gear from Ishgard
Oh thank you very much I'll send hin to 1 more venture then thanks for the info
In player search there is a small yellow circle around one sprout but not the other, what does it mean?
The circle means they are in the novice network iirc
cool, ty
Are we going to get a separate thread for the crafter/gatherer LL tonight?
I keep getting this when I try to log in. What’s happening
You must’ve accidentally canceled your account
If you previous tried to unsub, you might have accidently did it with the Cancel Service Account button
How do I uncancel it
I thought I know about the world and history but I was wrong 
Contact support
Welp. That’s gonna take over 3 days
it could be quick

Shadowbringers brings alot of lore bombs which shake up what we know
i had a ticket answered next day before
wtf is eureka/bozja? i always hear people talking about it
Eureka is stormblood relic zone
Stormblood, ShB respectively
I haven't done Eureka
If I buy a copy of the game does that stop my free trial and then trigger the subscription being required? Or does that only happen once I've gotten through the freely available story content?
Once u register the code
It happens when you register the game. Which on PC is activating the code in Mogstation. I'm not sure about PS4/5
The moment a game is registered on ur account the trials over
Cool, thanks!
||So the Eorzea calamities have it backwards?||
have what backwards?
who knows
the calamities aren't in like a specific order.
I feel like they're refering to umbral and astral considering their earlier question
in regards to the calamities, umbral eras = bad, astral = good. its not necessarily wrong/backwards per se
But I don't have the brainpower to actually formulate a proper sentence to explain it rn
||but Astral is dark and Umbral is light|| right?
basically umbral = light = passivity. there's no growth in these eras

Oh
The video Vinyl linked just says we had Astral and Umbral's association with Light and Dark backwards. It doesn't change the order of the eras.
So each elements have it's own Astral and Umbral
it gets explained in shb why light is considered passivity
ah k
Like fire Astral is burning and Umbral fire is drought
ye
It is a matter of perspective (pigment vs light color theory). The real answer I think is closer to the all elements have/are both.
umbral/astral are polarities
and certain elements lean more towards one polarity but they can be both
like fire tends to lean towards astral more, but as your example it has umbral side as well
I thought the the elements were separated into Astral and Umbral individually
no
basically when you look at the elemental wheel, its simply showing which way they lean naturally
^^ can take a bit to wrap your head around, especially after that scene in shb
Am I missing something here? I'm at upper LN, but do not see anywhere named "Oakwood"
across the lake
OOOOOOOOOH, I forgot it's the weird map with 2 places separated far apart from eachother on the same map
ya the videpo is good
What's the fastest lvl 70 dungeons to do for the last relic step ?
Hells' Lid I think
I can't image for the people who played the game years before and learning all the lore and knowing there are some errors in the lore 
Earn 500,000 points toward your skyward score as every Disciple of the Hand and Land. what is skyward score?
There's likely going to be new revelations in EW that make us re-think the lore too
the lore is the best part
guess its like our history, we think we know, but do we really ?
Hi guys does anyone have a link to a bestiary with the images of the mobs
When you turn in stuff at the firmament you get skyward points. There's an NPC that lets you check your score there somewhere, left of the diadem counter iirc
Can I turn in pvp gear I buy at Wolves Den for GC seals? I just want to get rid of my Wolfs Mark currency on some stuff rather than sitting on it capped
would POTD be better for leveling rather than command missions in dungeons
Yea I main blm and the fire Astral and ice Umbral make sense
I don't know of any complete listing, but the FF14 wikis on Gamerescape and sometimes Consolegameswiki sometimes have screenshots of the mobs
Okay I'll give a look thank you!
Anyone know if the cryptlurker set is going to be available for poetics on endwalker release?
hey whoever it was that mentioned the spamming numpad 0 with num lock on to make turning in cookies extremely easy, I love you
It is expected to, yes
idk if we know from the options of cryptlurker, deepshadow or crystarium, but based on the pattern of ilvl growth so far (130, 270, 400) it'll probably be cryptlurker
Is there a blue mage discord?
This is the one that I see recommended https://discord.gg/blueacademy
Is there a countdown till the liveletter stream?

Anyone good at macros? I need some help setting some up 🙂
combat macros? if so then don't use them
No no I have a good mouse for that 😛 I'm running a casino and want to know how to target players automatically when they are trading with me 🙂
I don't think there's any way to do that with a macro
Do the mounts drop from the trials that the story makes you do? (e.g. lunar kamuy from tsukuyomi)
EX mounts
Only their extreme versions
oh ok
Normals drop nothing
Or minstrel's ballad if applicable to the fight
I can't just < /target has bet 50K roll when you're ready > kind of thing?
If you're already targeting them, then yea you can use <t> to place their name
can i do anything with raid/tome gear that i don’t want ? from SHB
Turn in for seals
At your GC
LL is today right?
Yes. On that note, is it going to have English subtitles?
I have a friend with hearing issues who'd like to watch.
if i get glamour armor on one character, does it transfer to another?
I don't think so unless the twit said it
<t> is a placeholder you can use in macros or chat commands like /s <t> has bet 50K to say out loud that your target has bet
No. I think there's some cash shop items that are available across all characters, but the vast majority are only one.
what about the armor from the first veteran reward you get? does that transfer over?
I think so, because it's for account age, not character.
Tyyy
Hi! I just finished Pyros and am thinking of Hydatos. I'd really only be doing it for the story, but is there anything in Hydatos worth grinding for?
given the nature of the free trail, is it even possible to buy a house with at most 300k?
or at least an apartment?
Nope. Apartment alone is 500k. Private room in an FC house is 300k, but you can't join FCs on trial anyway
so a house is absolutely a no go?
well, great, just gonna have to move it to the pay player bucket list
Is there anything in Hydatos worth playing for?
Bunny chests is a great way to earn gil (the best eureka map for it)
finishing your relic weapon as well
augmenting elemental armor (making it glow) which requires crystals
finishing BA or getting Eureka BiS
many things to do
Can I solo battle at Big Bridge in Shire gear?

Right click the server icon, Edit Server Profile
It's very simple
Well, I managed to answer my own question, I managed to solo it, haha
Is there an individual consumable equivalent of the Back On Your Feet buff?
No
Ah well, thanks for the answer anyway
Do we know if FF14 is Windows 11 compatible yet?
I'll post the same question here since it is ff14 related but also tech xD : Hey quick question, since I started playing ff14 again and join a discord if I mute ones my mic just doesn't work anymore, when I close ff14 and rejoin the server it works again, anyone have the same problem or a solution? I think it has something to do with Logitech G Hub but I'm not sure (since my keyboard colours also turn off while I'm in game)
sounds like a hardware problem
alternatively
disable discord overlay
that causes weird shit to happen in my experience
hmm good question.
they're still working on it
Hi, I would like to buy the game (yay) and I'm pondering on how to approach it. I'm currently on trial. Should I go with starter + endwalker or buy complete edition and then maybe endwalker at some point? Thank you! 
Yea, I was just informed that my windows 11 upgrade is ready.... but I don't want to upgrade and it not work going into endwalker
You'd want the complete+endwalker
I can confirm that it does work for some, but as it has no official support there’s a chance of bugs and weird issues
it is
it is not
my friend is playing it in windows 11
it is not officially compatible yet.
See link above
so if issues no support for it ?
seems to be the case
from what i know my friend has no issues
while most won’t have problems there will be a small percentage of people who will
so if you want to take that risk, go for it
I'm usually not afraid to jump into a new OS.... but even this close to endwalker and having to potentially troubleshoot on release drop if there happen to be weird issues with the expansion.... I think I'll hold off
good choice
better to play it safe
better safe tghen sorry
ye that doesn't work sadly, just tried it
thanks for the responses though
It's only discord where the mic doesn't work, on one of those test websites for mics it works
I'm on 11 and it works smooth, although framerate scaling appears to be a bit weird
if you wait to buy EW, then you get all the previous in 1 shot. iirc
i'll be around 100 FPS (144hz monitor), setting to half rate (72) puts my actual framerate to ~90
I'm not sure if you saw my reply. But, if you're going to purchase with plans to go into Endwalker I would recommend buying Complete+Endwalker for everything.
that's only when they upgrade the complete edition to include endwalker I think?
ah.
I believe you can still get the pre-order earring which is huge
I'm usually 7-8 levels above my current MSQ so I never have to actually grind my main job to continue, lol
^ true
although you really should play on a favorite server
trust me you will level up like crazy
road to 70 is very important
the earrings are great for new expansions because they help early for maxed characters... if you're leveling through story regular you'll never have a need for the earring outside of alts
Preferred servers aren't around
I'm on Aether and didn't want to move 😛
They removed them for now
oh gg
glad i joined when there was some
I think EU and JP are the only ones with possible preferred servers now?
No
I'm very new to the game, so just checking whats the best buck for a game kind of deal. Doing my own pace, not rushing to endwalker content. Just wanted to stop being free trial so I can join FC and have fun with people during leveling.
i didn't see anything in light
There's 0 preferred server
any tips gathering specific nodes in the diadem or is it random
!faq buy
It's 50/50 what node you
Can't force one
complete edition is on sale for like 16euro on the square enix store gives you all till shadowbringer
Hey so I'm finally doing final nier raid and I got a pop-up saying I only get one thing a week? How does that work?
Yea... I think if you're lucky Humble Bundle is still selling both the complete edition and endwalker for really cheap?
Oh ok I got worried
nice
yeah I see it now, thank you!
also month;ly sub price too
random question but how do you get on top of the stone in idyllshire
If I may, is it in a form of a code, or will it apply to my account imminently?
Code
Awesome, thank you 🙂
Any way to make map markers, such as DoL/H icons, appear bigger? I'm constantly struggling to discern they yellow ones on a yellow background, especially since they are so small.
@median wind Would you like a recruit-a-friend code to redeem for some free bonuses once you buy the base game? It helps me too.

What is the black thing with the red in it to the bottom left of my map, and how do i get rid of it?
Talk to the guy who looks like yoshi p
he doesn't have a quest
That's your job hud icon it'll be your job bar soon, DO NOT GET RID OF JT
am I missing a mount?

I got ifrit, garuda, shiva, titan, leviathan
But you can move it
Ramuh
how?
ahhh ramuh
Hud layout
It shows you necessary information for your job (your tank status and later resource bar)
ai thanks
What's a good way to get three signatures for a new FC? I'm making one for me and my girlfriend to have as our own, and i have no desire to buy the game 3 more times on multiple pcs to make said FC.
I just shout in a busy town, it works well enough usually
Go shout in a main city and offer gil
why is it important?
I tried that and got trolled by French players.
Because itll display your job specific resource
If it's too big/ugly you can put it on a simplified mode to make it smaller/sleeker
oh ok
You need it to play your job correctly.
Tried PM'ing people without a guild and above 61 level?
Is there an LFG channel on this discord? Anyone know of a good way to find more players?
She has not started playing yet @pale remnant but what I might end up doing is simply asking friends if they can make alts, and i can owe them later for it.
I thought pming people out of the blue about that sort of thing was a bad thing to do?
Is it still possible to unlock and do the Odin Trial?
which crafter uses the materials of the miner ?
Just PM them. It will be alright.
Rock salts and alchemical reagents for cul and alc, all the smiths are self explanatory chemicals for tanning pelts and thread
Fieldcraft for all gatherers
ty
is it not possible to solo Ramuh EX?
I am trying that but the stun thingy gets me
Then just facetank the shock and keep hitting him
is there any discord server or other communities focused on triple triad?
he gets Invulnerbility
ramuh ex is just grab 3 orbs to get the buff, kill adds when they spawn the first time
That means kill the adds
and then burst him down after htat
-_-
