questions-and-help

[ripe hound]

Don't even tell me if there are spoilers

That's a spoiler

[ashen mountain]

So, if I were to ask if a mentor could help me in game. They could help me with doing the game.

Right?

[twilit arch]

assuming that person is on the same datacenter as you and willing to help out

[ashen mountain]

Ah

Do you know which Datacenter I should join?

[faint flare]

One for your region

It doesn't matter after that

[ashen mountain]

Ah

Ok

Like NA, and EU, etc?

[faint flare]

Yes

3 NA data centres, 2 eu and 2 JP

[ashen mountain]

K

Yeah

I think eventually I'll need one.

A mentor to be exact.

[jade quartz]

Mentors aren’t your personal employees, you’re not going to get someone who’s your personal helper.

[dark copper]

how long do you guys surmise the housing districts in the new DCs will be taken? at least the med and large plots

[twilit arch]

med and large will probably be the first to go

[jade quartz]

There will be some wards with a lottery system.

Those wards that aren’t on the lottery system…all the larges and mediums will probably be gone in like 2mins

[dark copper]

what...i thought it would take at least a few weeks

[twilit arch]

haha

no

most larges and mediums were gone within moments of servers opening when shiro released

[dark copper]

are people just jumping to oceania DC for the purpose of getting a plot?

[twilit arch]

possible

but kind of doubtful since the ping would probably be really shit for some of them

bulk of people are probably going to be OCE peeps

[dark copper]

probably also a lot of english speakers in asia outside of japan i imagine

do we have any statistics on player population by country?

[river vortex]

best way to level after 70?

[spare rover]

If people played perfectly which jobs would do the highest DPS? Is there a list?

[river vortex]

highest dungeon or something else?

[jade quartz]

We don’t really have reliable population statistics on anything

[slate arrow]

Highest Dungeon or Bozja

[dark copper]

i think at the current time, it's tied between BLM, SAM and SMN under very optimal conditions

[shut panther]

The closest thing to this would be fflogs rankings

[spare rover]

I wanted to know who should I buff with AST, so prob BLM and SAM right?

[slate arrow]

You should buff the highest DPS player

[dark copper]

it really depends on the level of the dungeon

and player skill

[twilit arch]

you should be running ACT for that

[slate arrow]

Item level > class DPS

[dark copper]

i believe at level 60 DNC is supposedly god tier in damage...although i dont main DNC so i would't know

[twilit arch]

just because someone's playing BLM/SAM doesnt mean they're playing it well

[dark copper]

and SAM is relatively low dps at level 60

[shut panther]

As long as you're buffing the right class (ranged with ranged card, melee with melee) you shouldn't really concern yourself too much until you're doing max level Savage content

[spare rover]

True, but for now I can barely recognise the blue and purple cards :'c checking DPS is a bit too much xD

[shut panther]

And if you get to that point your best bet is watching DPs and ACTing accordingly

[dark copper]

just look at the DPS aggro list

[twilit arch]

aggro list isn't a good metric

[dark copper]

player doing highest DPS has higher aggro

[twilit arch]

and that's not necessarily true

either way if you're just doing dungeons, it doesn't really matter that much

just play on appropriate role

if you're doing savage/ultimates then it matters more and you should probably get more comfortable recognizing what card goes to which role

[spare rover]

I should start buffing the melee players with the blue cards right? I was using them to buff the tanks until now

[twilit arch]

ye ideally should be playing blue border cards on melee

purple border on ranged

[shut panther]

If you don't have a melee in your 4 man throw it to the tank, but otherwise yeah it goes on melee dps

[spare rover]

Buffing the tanks is so easy I just need to target them with F2 but now I realise it was a bad habit

[alpine vapor]

DOES anyone know the name of the song @ around 1:10 in the EW launch trailer???????

[twilit arch]

its new music

we don't have any of the names

[alpine vapor]

sadge i need it now

[haughty spade]

How do you cycle through players that aren't in your party on console?

Without having to manually click them with the mouse

[faint flare]

Sheathe your weapon and do it

[glass oxide]

L1 + up/down

[haughty spade]

Not working

[glass oxide]

Up/down is whatever you use to cycle through party

[faint flare]

L1 up/down is enemy list

Put your weapon away

[haughty spade]

Still not working and don't have weapon out

[faint flare]

Then check your target filters in character configuration

[spare rover]

For AST when do you use Minor Arcana? Isn't it worse than just playing the cards as it does not give seals?

[slate arrow]

When you're capped on seals

[faint flare]

When you have your seals ready for divination

Or already have that seal

And cant redraw

[slate arrow]

It happens often at level 80 content especially with sleeve draw

before 70 though you won't be using minor arcana significantly

[spare rover]

Oh I see yeah I am still at level 60 and barely get enough sigils for Divination

[sinful cipher]

Is this discord the best place to find a static for EW or there is better places (like a discord dedicated to static, ingame, etc)?

[jade quartz]

There’s #recruitment-aether but you might be better off at whatever the raid discord for your DC is

[faint flare]

There's recruitment discords for data centres

And r/ffxivrecruitment

[jade quartz]

Look multiple places, cast a wide net

[sinful cipher]

Oh ? There is a raid discord specifically for Aether ?

[faint flare]

Yes

For all data centres

Check #resources

Some in there

[frail hedge]

Why tf are they removing HQ?

[sinful cipher]

I'm not used to the terminology, which one is it ?

[spare rover]

How do you play WHM at level 60? Do you cast regens and DPS until you run out of mana? I feel like I can't even DPS that much because of mana issues I always try to use Lucid Dreaming

[twilit arch]

its one of their ways of getting rid of inventory bloat

[spare rover]

Or is it maybe a gear issue

[hasty musk]

when are you pressing lucid

you should be pressing it around 75-80% of your mp

[frail hedge]

Doesn't that just massively dumb down gathering and crafting though?

[spare rover]

At around 7000 MP left more or less

[hasty musk]

press it a bit earlier

[twilit arch]

not really?

[warped nest]

Press it always?

[faint flare]

Pick clean is already stupid strong so you don't really gather HQ anyway

[lean lotus]

how do i get on the ship in unseen? i can't really get up there and i'm trying to level scholar

[twilit arch]

gathering was largely using your perception skills when you had gp, and crafting HQ just made it slightly easier to 100% HQ

also crafting HQ isn't going away

[hasty musk]

also, regens become less useful during big pulls since the tank is taking a lot of damage really quickly

[frail hedge]

But doesn't removing that stuff take out half the challenge from crafting?

[twilit arch]

no

[warped nest]

How?

[twilit arch]

there's nothing challenging about using HQ mats to get a boost in quality

[warped nest]

How will it become less challenging

[frail hedge]

They're removing HQ crafts, no?

[twilit arch]

No

[faint flare]

No

[warped nest]

No

[frail hedge]

OH

[faint flare]

Only gathering

[frail hedge]

Oh that's such a relief

I was like wtf are you doing to us

[hasty musk]

you should be using assize on cooldown and tetragammaton and benediction first and foremost to heal since they're ogcds

[topaz basin]

Does gametime card work if youre on playstation?

[twilit arch]

yes

[warped nest]

HQ raw material funnels toward crafting HQ and nothing else

Removing HQ material is fine as long as the recipe is adjusted

[spare rover]

When using AST in big pulls the regens and Essential Dignity was enough to keep them alive but with WHM I have to cast several Cure II to just keep them going

[warped nest]

HQ craft is very hard to remove as it will, as you said, make crafting too easy

[spare rover]

Yeah Benediction is really good but it has such a cooldown, compared to Essential Dignity...

[warped nest]

Use tetra

[hasty musk]

ast regen has an initial heal, WHM regen doesn't

and that's no reason not to use benediction

[warped nest]

WHM has healing bubble

And WHM holy has stun

Giving you more breathing room

[jade quartz]

HQ materials were only seldom needed anyway

[spare rover]

I see, yeah Holy helps a lot during big pulls

[leaden ginkgo]

what UI are they using for the middle screenshot?

so I can see what mount/minion count I'm at?

[slate arrow]

Looks like FFXIVCollect

[faint flare]

Or some desktop thing

[twilit arch]

that's def ffxivcollect

[faint flare]

But a screenshot of collect

[leaden ginkgo]

https://ffxivcollect.com/characters/27165417 how do I set it so I'm not on private? I have a few mounts but I can't see them on here?

[twilit arch]

you need to log into lodestone

[leaden ginkgo]

ok thank you!

[lament pilot]

does anyone have guides for how to farm levequests for gil these days, what crafting jobs you need leveled, and powerleveling guides for crafting jobs?

[near path]

Hmmm, is there a chance to spells that kill me to make me dead before the enemy? Trying Final Sting shenanigans, and it normally works, but sometimes I just seem to die and the enemy is fine.

[light lion]

So if belts are being removed in patch 6.0, is there any point in using tomestones on a belt now?

[twilit arch]

honestly no, imo

use the tomestones on other slots

[stark karma]

Hi there uh related to endwalker do I have to wait till December 7th to receive the previous expansions? I pre ordered it just a day or two ago

[deep herald]

how does that make sense

[lament pilot]

until early-access so dec 3rd

[deep herald]

of course you have access to the other expacs theyre released

[lament pilot]

yeah they tell you when preordering that your expansion keys are delayed until early access releases.

sadly

[slate arrow]

It's subject to crit RNG and damage variance

[stark karma]

I see

[deep herald]

also you need to buy them separately

[slate arrow]

So usually the lower the better

[stark karma]

Thank you for the answer

[lament pilot]

nah buying endwalker gives you free stormblood and shadowbringers

[deep herald]

complete edition and endwalker

no it doesnt @lament pilot

[twilit arch]

endwalker gives you sb/shb

[near path]

OK, thank you.

[stark karma]

It do

[lament pilot]

it absolutely does

however it gives it delayed.

[stark karma]

That’s what’s in the description

[twilit arch]

But you won't have access to them until you get the full game code

so basically early access/release

[stark karma]

I see

Guess I’ll go freeze myself

[lament pilot]

my son started the game 2 weeks ago, got the base game+heavensward for $19.99, and got all remaining expansions plus endwalker preorder for $39.99

but right at the end of the preorder process they had an easy to miss message saying you won't get your stormblood or shadowbringers cd keys until early access comes out

[sharp forge]

Trying to do this and honestly confused af. I know I'm missing a couple and just waiting on timers but there seem to be 10 I just cant find anywhere. Online someone said old collectables now count but different wikis have different shit and I'm just lost on where tf the last ten are. The only things I haven't collected are all the collectables (plus like 4 things ik I'm missing) so wtf

any ideas

[dire prawn]

Y'all

Rosenbogen

Where do I get it

[twilit arch]

Do you have all of the folklore tome?

[sharp forge]

indeed

double checked it aswell

[jade quartz]

You got all your custom delivery items and folklore tomes?

[twilit arch]

aelina, under gerolt's masterworks @dire prawn

[sharp forge]

custom delivery items could be it

[dire prawn]

poetics or a different currency?

[sharp forge]

are there some locked behind that im assuming?

[twilit arch]

poetics yes

[jaunty compass]

I can’t hide shield no more? On pld?

[twilit arch]

you can, there's a gold saucer item

[faint flare]

Emperors new shield via gold saucer

[leaden ginkgo]

Does Qitari Beast Tribes Quests give out good exp for gatherer

[faint flare]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

Just curious

Ok

[jaunty compass]

Thank you boss! Imma go look

[faint flare]

Beast tribes always give good xp for their level range

[jaunty compass]

Thank you

[deep herald]

oh

[sharp forge]

Are some needed items for (I found that miner 7) locked behind custom deliveries?

[lament pilot]

@deep herald this also if you didn't see it, although date hasn't been updated here yet

[celest coral]

Once I get my 25 bozjan clusters, which map should I buy the mount speedup for?

[faint flare]

Both

[minor fulcrum]

bozja first

nobody farms clusters in zadnor

[celest coral]

kk

Bozjan it is

[wispy shell]

In eureka is pagos the only kettle step?

[faint flare]

Only mandatory one

Pyros has one that's optional

To add stats to the weapon

Which doesn't matter anymore

[wispy shell]

Do you need those stats to upgrade to a hydratos weapon?

[faint flare]

No

[jade quartz]

No

[wispy shell]

Nice

I'm struggling to get the pagos kettle done it's pain

[celest coral]

How do I change what goes in there?

[faint flare]

Put actions in your holster

Then click it in the holster to pick what slot to place it in

[celest coral]

Done

Thanks haha

[dim ridge]

double-checking because I see the changes to levequest gil, if I'm at full leve allowances right now, in theory, max efficiency, how much can I get between now and release? (wheeze) because I want to maximize how much progress I can make towards 'who wants to be a gillionaire' achievement before EW

[faint flare]

It takes 17 days to cap out

[fiery urchin]

Have they announced when they're charging for the preorder yet?

[faint flare]

So stop using leves in the 15th

[near path]

Do higher difficulty Trial enemies have better chances of letting BLU learn their skills?

[dim ridge]

28 days away, i'm at max now. so i'd want to use up everything I have now, right? and then wait for it to be full again or nah

[faint flare]

No

[faint flare]

Yes

Don't use leves past the 15th

To be capped again

[dim ridge]

why? OH you mean like, so use them as much as I can between now and the 15th, then let them cap and gather up a full maxed allowance, turn in right before EW because I should be maxed up again then, right?

[celest coral]

In Zadnor, do I have to be nearby a duel to benefit from the double mettle buff?

[dim ridge]

so that's, in theory, 2 full maxed allowances + some misc ones? That's not gonna be the rest of the achievement for me, I'm sure, but I don't remember how much the cookie/other meta ones give per maxed allowance set

[faint flare]

If you're at 0 on the 15th, you'll be max leve stack on endwalker

[faint flare]

Yes, for any duel

[sterile hinge]

How do i get to Limsa Lominsa

[faint flare]

Do story

[honest anvil]

keep doing msq; you’ll go there by default

[faint flare]

It will take you to it

[ashen mountain]

I has question, what are Glamours?

[faint flare]

Transmog basically

Let's you put a look of one item onto your gear

[floral flicker]

where can i get more gysahl greens?

[uncut quarry]

does the endwalker launch trailer have spoilers for the previous expansions?

[hasty musk]

yes

[uncut quarry]

dem, aight thx

[twilit arch]

https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Gysahl_Greens has a list of all vendors that sell em, but easy options are maisenta near the gridania aetheryte or bango zanog near limsa aetheryte

[floral flicker]

how much do apartments/estates cost?

[hasty musk]

apartments are 500k

[twilit arch]

500k for apartments

[somber spear]

Okay I’m wanting to play on controller but I’m struggling to do the double tap to access the cross hot bar

[floral flicker]

oh great

[celest coral]

Is there a specific area in Zadnor that's optimal for mettle farming?

[shut panther]

Z3 fates give the most

[somber spear]

Is there any controller players that might be able to help me? I can admit I can be slow so if someone help me I would appreciate it

[celest coral]

Top/North area?

[faint flare]

Yes

[celest coral]

Awesome

[hard kettle]

can male viera wear hats?

[leaden ginkgo]

Is there literally no way to reattribute your companion's skill points?

[faint flare]

Higher zone gives more mettle and xp

[somber spear]

No hats

[faint flare]

Reagan pepper

[somber spear]

Well some hats

[hard kettle]

thanks

[leaden ginkgo]

Is that an NPC?

[somber spear]

It depends on the hat

[faint flare]

Item

Brought with gc seals

[hard kettle]

was just wondering because they said their hair styles use a newer system

[faint flare]

They haven't said about hats yet, only hair

[leaden ginkgo]

Okay, thank you!

[spice zinc]

I'm not a pro by any means but I use controller- what did you need help with?

[regal pawn]

Yes they can. They showed the reaper viera with a hat.
There's gonna be Male Viera and Female Viera hats most likely

[twilit arch]

they can't wear all hats tho

someone posted male viera pictures of endwalker media tour

[hard kettle]

err i meant if they will not have the same hat restrictions as female viera

[somber spear]

Do you use the cross hot bars? Expanded if so I’m struggling with the double tap to access it so I’m feeling dumb & frustrated that I can’t figure it out

[twilit arch]

and there were plenty of AF sets that did not show on them

so its still most likely going to be same as female viera in that some will show

[hard kettle]

but yea thanks for the answers everyone

[twilit arch]

others will not

[faint flare]

Character configuration > hotbar > custom to .turn it .on

[somber spear]

Oh I’m able to make it appear so I got that far I’m just struggling to double tap to actually access it

Unless I’m misunderstood how I’m supposed to access it?

[faint flare]

Make sure it's enabled and double tap quickly

[somber spear]

And that’s where I’m struggling unless I don’t understand double tap

[faint flare]

Press, release and press again

[somber spear]

And it’s supposed to be fast? Someone mentioned turning it up?

[faint flare]

Decently quick

[spice zinc]

sorry I'm not home so I had to google terms to check- yes, I use that system with the double tapping
it's a fast double tap, but what it might be is you have to keep holding it down?
so it's more like a quick tap-hold

like normally it's hold to access your active bar, so then now it's tap-hold to access the second bar

if that makes sense

[somber spear]

I’m not the brightest bulb in the bunch but I think so? ^^’

What speed or whatever it’s called that you guys use for the setting?

[spice zinc]

ahh I'd have to check my particulars later, I'm at work for about 7 hours still x)

[true vault]

I never actually did the quest for Eureka but, it's no where to be found?

[faint flare]

It starts in Rhalgars

[somber spear]

Oops

[true vault]

Yeah

[faint flare]

Then goes to kugane pier

[true vault]

but the quest isn't there either

[somber spear]

My bad ^^’

[true vault]

and I haven't done it

[faint flare]

You probably accepted it already

The only reason why quests don't appear is you accepted or completed it

Remember the search function IS case sensitive

Ah the infamous “did you check your journal”

[true vault]

and thats why

I hate case sensitivity except for passworlds

words*

thanks

[spare plinth]

you dont need to craft all of the stuff to level you can just use ishgard restoration can you?

if you want to level your crafters and gatherers

[twilit arch]

sure

oh no

you have to craft the items yourself

[haughty topaz]

just finished SHB, how can i get this gear

[twilit arch]

the turn ins are not tradeable, but the items you can gather from diadem (after they have been approved) are

[somber spear]

Spam some dungeons?

[twilit arch]

buy exarchic from the marketboard, spend revelation in eulmore, unlock eden/nier raids

[somber spear]

^

I wasn’t trying to give a troll answer btw

[haughty topaz]

not enough i think

[somber spear]

The 630 should be enough for like feet or accessories

Shoes

[haughty topaz]

before this guy should have gave me 430 gear right ?

oh he did

need rings and stuff onlt

[spare plinth]

you dont need to craft all of the items to level up your crafting jobs dont you?

[faint flare]

No

[spare plinth]

just use ishgard to level to 80?

[faint flare]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a channel where i can post my recruitment code?

[faint flare]

R/ffxivraf

[leaden ginkgo]

thank you XD

[arctic schooner]

guys do i need eureka weapon to access all eureka zones?

[faint flare]

No

[arctic schooner]

great, just what i need

thanks

[modest igloo]

dont need it for access, but you will need them if you want the armor

[arctic schooner]

i see, i suppose the armor is just for glam as well

not exactly interested for glam right now

[somber spear]

Sorry I need help on my other characters when I Hover over something it gives me a description but I don’t know why this character doesn’t and how to turn it on could someone help me

[snow locust]

Got a question regarding steam and non-steam

say this person has ffxiv stormblood/shadowbringers outside of steam and decides to pre-order endwalker on steam

would their endwalker pre-order work on steam and would you need to use the steam client to play ffxiv?

[faint flare]

No

[snow locust]

?

[faint flare]

Codes don't mix

[snow locust]

sooo pretty much they can't pre-order ew on steam?

[faint flare]

No

You can't use steam ar all

In any capacity if you brought not on steam

[snow locust]

okay so what if they buy endwalker after the release.

[faint flare]

Doesn't matter

If you brought the game not on steam

You can't use steam AT ALL

[snow locust]

Is there a way to transfer to steam?

[faint flare]

No

Other than make a completely brand new account and rebuy everything

[leaden ginkgo]

There is something called the PSRemotePlay app, and it can be run on a computer if that works

[untold cedar]

How effective is early armor crafting? I kinda forgot to check that teleport actually costs gil and now I can't continue the quest because I need armor in every slot:D

[hasty musk]

pretty sure you can't even unlock crafting at that point

[faint flare]

You never need to buy gear outside the starting quest

[leaden ginkgo]

Have you sold all of your allagan pieces yet?

[snow locust]

that doesn't really answer my question lol. @faint flare thanks for helping my friend on this, he's not happy but we got that sorted out.

so to end it, he was wondering because he wanted to set up for steam deck.

[untold cedar]

I'm not sure im like level 5.

[faint flare]

You can't even craft then

You only need to buy a hat

Nothing else

[leaden ginkgo]

Go to an NPC vendor and sell your allagan
You should have enough gil afterwards

[faint flare]

They won't have any

At lv5

[leaden ginkgo]

Then do a sidequest, and hopefully get enough gil for the armor

[faint flare]

It's just a hat

Not that expensive

[untold cedar]

Yeah I think I have a quest that gives a hat. The starting city for maruder is a nightmare to navigate I spend 2 hours just being lost.

But im probably just an idiot.

[leaden ginkgo]

Good luck with getting the hat then!

[untold cedar]

Thanks for the answers and all around folks. :)

[spice zinc]

that was my first first city years ago when I first tried the game out and I feel you
I got so lost there

you pick it up quick though

[coarse salmon]

Anyone can give a help with what is being said in the Launch trailer at 1:25? I am translating it for portuguese but I am having some problems to get the first part of the next sentence before the will be your guide

[jade quartz]

“That bloom will be your guide”

Seemingly referring to the flower seen in the next shot

[coarse salmon]

thanks

[pearl mesa]

If I want to play the game on a different Windows laptop, I don't have to rebuy everything, right?

[faint flare]

No

[jade quartz]

No just log in to the launcher again and it will download

[faint flare]

Just download again

Just remember to upload your settings etc

On the character selection

[limber hound]

What does WM mean in the context of an EX trial

[deep herald]

i have trouble making gil any advice thatll apply in endwalker too?

[somber spear]

What have you tried

Because the general advice is usually gathering/crafting

[hasty musk]

you also just accumulate gil over time just doing normal game stuff, assuming you're not spending a bunch of it all the time

[haughty topaz]

how long does one relic weapon take ?

[faint flare]

Depends which relic series you're doing

[spice zinc]

with a carry ARR isn't bad
can't speak for no carry though

I think I knocked it out in a night or two

[jade quartz]

ARR is the grindiest relic, one takes a few weeks usually

[jade quartz]

I do not believe you

[spice zinc]

gosh, really?? it was a year ago and I have a bad memory so I could definitely be mistaken

if there was pain I do not remember it

[fast hull]

Took me three months to get the level 535 one. I have a job and school though so it might be faster for youbguys

[warped nest]

It is just physically not possible to get it over one night, at least not ARR zodiac

[swift pasture]

is there likee a step by step guide on how I can get the elemental armor in eureka?

[haughty topaz]

aaaand am out

[warped nest]

Anima you can "get in a weekend", if you do all the prep work way ahead of time and have everything ready

[swift pasture]

I haven't done any of eureka

[haughty topaz]

gonna do them later on

[faint flare]

You can do shadowbringers in a week

[haughty topaz]

after we are done with endwalker

[faint flare]

ah it was on my last character so I had to look it up- it's because I didn't actually do the full path x)
soz soz soz, bad info from me

[untold cedar]

Well that's like saying you can build a house if you put every brick windows and door in place.

once I hit a point of 'glowing' I was happy with I just stopped

[warped nest]

See the "" around get in a weekend?

That kinda implies that it is not really a weekends worth of work

[queen veldt]

Funnily enough this was posted on Reddit very recently https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/qneioh

[deep herald]

what do i gather and craft

[faint flare]

Whatever is selling on market board

[slate arrow]

Items which are in demand

The nicher the better, except on expansion launch where endgame gear moves like hotcakes

[somber spear]

Well walk before you run you’ll need to level them up first lol

[slate arrow]

In this Ted talk I will teach you about economics 101 in an MMORPG capacity

[swift pasture]

thank you ! I figured with the delay I can do this isntead while waiting

[dim ridge]

it's unfortunately not a quick easy answer, takes a lil research

[deep herald]

leveled now what

[queen veldt]

It's not a bad idea, I've never touched it either and I was thinking the same thing, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this so it stuck in my memory!

At the very least get a map every day

[slate arrow]

You literally can't compete with level 80 crafters because of this:

!action trained eye

[zinc orbit]

**Trained Eye** : lvl 80 CRP (250 CP) (0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Increases quality by 100%.

Available only on the first step. Recipe level must be at least 10 levels below yours.

Powered by XIVAPI

[slate arrow]

So you won't be moving a lot of units very quickly if you're trying to make gil while leveling

And that's not even getting into econ 101

[warped nest]

Your time are better spent leveling your crafters

Over making low level stuffs

In the long run

[somber spear]

Especially with an expansion about to drop

[deep herald]

im so confused

i have BTN, MIN, and CUL at 80 fully geared

what can i do for gil

[slate arrow]

you can try and sell HQ raiding food

[warped nest]

But again

New expansion coming soon

[slate arrow]

emphasis on try, since we're about to reach a new expansion

[warped nest]

Very very very slow market

[slate arrow]

Demand is at an all time low at this point

[limber hound]

Firmament is the fastest way to grind crafters/gatherers, correct?

[warped nest]

Gil doesn't fall out of the sky in XIV, you have to learn how to play the market

[limber hound]

just pop into diadem, grab stuff, and craft stuff with the grabbed stuff

[warped nest]

It is the easiest way

But last I check, doing leve yield more exp on the same time

But firmament is easier to grind

[limber hound]

hrm

And the skybuilder scrips also give some cosmetics, is it

sorta similar to the collectables system

[umbral dune]

mount, minion, cosmetic, dye

[supple pebble]

Opinion. From 68-70, whats faster; HoH spam, or spamming duties?

[regal pawn]

hoh if dps
duties if tank/healer

[warped nest]

Duty if your queue is 15 minutes or less compared to hoh

Even if you are Dps

[supple pebble]

tank queue, so always quick baby lets go

thank you

[steel canopy]

so uh, how do you gather collectibles?

[limber hound]

Some nodes will spawn collectables

select the thing and the UI changes to fit

Either increase the collectability with the three increasing actions, or obtain one of the item at current collectability

[steel canopy]

How do I know when the thing shows up?

[limber hound]

There's a box icon next to it

[jade quartz]

It’s a whole interface window

You will receive an active help popup which explains things.

[steel canopy]

Cause apparently I got yellow copper ore and it's supposed to be for collectibles

[warped nest]

You can't miss it unless you don't look at the game

[limber hound]

oh those

[steel canopy]

but apparently its not rareified?

[limber hound]

HW collectables are a bit janky

wait no

[jade quartz]

Rarefied x is a separate item

[limber hound]

That's not even a collectable

[jade quartz]

You may be looking at outdated info

[limber hound]

If it was a collectable the UI would switch to one with a circle at the top

[steel canopy]

So basically spam nodes get lucky then?

[jade quartz]

No

Find the correct area to gather the collectible you want

They’re in separate nodes of their own

If an item is a collectable class item it will have a little white box icon in its name

You can see that at the top of the picture there

Cloudkin feather [box]

You then use the actions in the interface to increase the collectibility rating

[limber hound]

For some reason HW nodes have currently useless items

I think I got tripped up myself by that yellow ore thing myself once

[umbral dune]

except collectables for custom deliveries, ephemeral and rarefied have specific spawn time and location

[jade quartz]

ARR has one or two useless items too, some holdovers from older systems

[steel canopy]

also oh god running on a chocobo is so slow

[jade quartz]

You get a speed increase per zone from MSQ

Gets much faster

Can optionally buy an even further speed increase with hunt currency but by that point you unlock flying anyway which is even faster

[wintry trellis]

how do I add a textline to an emote using a macro

[jade quartz]

Just type it as a line of the macro

[jade quartz]

/p hello!

Like that

[wintry trellis]

yeah but would it still be /ac "emote"

[steel canopy]

also remind me, do you need to be at least lvl 55 to mine a lvl 55 node?

[rigid quiver]

Is the moogle treasure event getting extended as well with the delay, since 6.0 comes out 12/3?

[hasty musk]

yes

[jade quartz]

No /ac is for combat (and crafting) actions

[wintry trellis]

what would be the emote equivalent ?

[jade quartz]

A macro literally just works by automatically entering lines of text as if you had typed them yourself

You write /dance like you normally would type an emote

[wintry trellis]

damn

RPers must be fast asf then

[jade quartz]

???

[rigid quiver]

Just type the emote into the macro i thinks

[wintry trellis]

I see hella rpers emoting and able to send a chatline to multiple people entering venues

so thought there was more to it than just combat action

[jade quartz]

??? There is

I just told you how…

You type /dance

As a line in the macro

Or for a custom emote it’s /em tickles your toes or whatever

Again, a macro literally just automated text inputs

Anything you can do by typing in chat, you can do with a macro, and vice versa

[swift pasture]

is there a difference between the elemental armor, the elemental armor +1 and the elemental armor +2 glamour wise?

[mental ridge]

Question guys: does that mean that the crafted gear for raiding can't be crafted before january as well? What about the crafting gear?

[dim ridge]

for people who are not subbed atm, should they be getting housing demo emails at the 30 day mark?

[patent citrus]

afaik 1 week before 45 days?

[slate arrow]

crafted gear will be introduced later, while the crafting gear will be the basic level 90 set melded

[honest anvil]

fenrir, sabotender and adamantoise are the only 3 mgp mounts right?

[leaden ginkgo]

i just completed a realm reborn and the first era questline, i want to collect mounts and glam, where and what should i do? (drg main).

[honest anvil]

too broad question; name a specific mount or outfit and we’ll tell

yknow, since everything is glam to somebody 🥲

[leaden ginkgo]

mount honestly wanna collect them all so any ez ones to start off with, and for glam something similar to the set your given from the dragoon questline but obviously dont want to wear a full set

[obsidian patio]

+1 and +2 are the exact same in terms of looks

[azure dagger]

Moogle Treasure Trove event has some easy mounts that you can get.

[river oasis]

Hello may i ask what the prep needed to try e9s-e12s. I dont really have a static atmm

[honest anvil]

easiest mounts at your stage are probably arr extreme mounts; can unlock those then put up pf to ask for help

drg wear maiming gears so you can look up those for ideas ; also #glamour-discussion or eorzeacollection too

[cursive ridge]

if you are in a middle of gathering a timed node when it times out, do you get to finish it?

[obsidian patio]

No, it abruptly ends your gathering

[honest anvil]

watch, read many guides and clear povs beforehand then join appropriate pfs, then die a few 50 times or so while learning and clear o/

[leaden ginkgo]

thats for the tombstone of lore correct? if so is it worth to get the jacket as i have 59 atm

[civic garnet]

so any idea when the endwalker class changes go live? With expansion launch or slightly before it?

[river oasis]

What about gear? Since bis requires the savage gear

[honest anvil]

augmented exarchic and i520 at the minimum at the moment

[river oasis]

Atm i have ilvl 520 with mix of exarchic and cryptlurker

[leaden ginkgo]

i didnt even know there was that discussion ty!

[obsidian patio]

Expansion launch

[civic garnet]

alright thanks

[cursive ridge]

i thought it was on early access

i guess you can consider early access an expansion launch

[obsidian patio]

In my defense I consider both to be the same thing.

Official Launch date is more for updating store products.

[lethal birch]

I can't have two edenmorn rings, yeah?

[cursive ridge]

look at the ring tooltip, if it has UNIQUE on top of it, you cannot

[daring wind]

Hi everyone! Endwalker is going to be the first new expansion for me, and I got a small question regarding early access. Will early access include everything from patch 6.0?

[solemn jewel]

Yea

[cursive ridge]

current content rings seem to tend to be unique, last expansion content tends to gets changed to no longer be unique

[daring wind]

Cool, thank you!

[lament pilot]

is there any point in lv20-lv60 mining gear if I'm farming diadem and the 2nd item on each node isn't available until lv60 anyways?

[patent citrus]

I don't see much point beside doing that job quest

by doing job quest, you could get that exp boost green scroll thing that can also help you leveling at diadem

[lament pilot]

how often should I leave/enter diadem to go turn things in?

[patent citrus]

up to you really

[lament pilot]

and job quests-like the ones back in uldah? I should keep up with those?

[patent citrus]

you could time it with fete spawn time?

yeh, those job quests

gives green scroll that help you level up faster, don't skip this cause it's quite a boost 😂

[lament pilot]

oic good to know, thank you

don't skip job quest my dude

theres still a few job quests that give skills

[lament pilot]

oh nice 6x more exp

[solar valve]

Did I hear something about levels for endwalker? People were talking about current levels and xp being far too much data and maintenance to be practical? What exactly is changing?

[modest igloo]

basically scaled down

like with damage numbers

will still be pretty much the same

[lament pilot]

when patch 6.0 hits, any partial exp earned towards any level will be wiped on all jobs

so dont leave jobs halfway to level

this is because recalculating everyone's exp and giving the same % would take like 3 weeks of game service downtime to accomplish

[upper pendant]

are the omega mogstations out now or endwalker?

[solar valve]

Ah yeah that sounds super reasonable

[hasty musk]

endwalker

[solar valve]

Also, we're getting faster alt job leveling right?

[upper pendant]

got it thank u!

[lament pilot]

they said after exp scaling happened that it would take the same time to level up

so at least from the perspective of exp scaling, no not faster. I did not stick around for the whole live letter

[solar valve]

Well that's lame. I was lead to believe beforehand they said they were making it easier to level your alt jobs

[lament pilot]

that may be true for some other reason

[modest igloo]

it'll be easier to do 70-80. but now theres 80-90

[solar valve]

That's honestly all I'd need. Especially because I wanna do reaper and Sage along with my ninja.

Well my ninjas cap so nvm. Rdm I mean

[hot eagle]

only the lvl 70-80 part gets a lil faster for alts with ew since the armory bonus will be 100% instead of 50

but the rest stays like before only lower numbers on both sides gotten exp and exp needed to lvl up

[solar valve]

Thats fine. Everything I wanna level will be 70ish anyway

I just didn't wanna have reaper take forever if I decided I wanted to run it through endwalker as the main job

[past steeple]

Will I still get access to storm blood and shadowbringers on the 19th? I pre-ordered endwalker and was just wondering if I would still have access at the same time despite the delay?

[hasty musk]

probably not

[limber parcel]

Is there a transcript available for the live letter anywhere? Or is it still being worked on?

[past steeple]

Well I guess I can't put off leveling all my side jobs any longer

[obsidian patio]

still being worked on.

[limber parcel]

Okay thanks 🙂

[obsidian patio]

the digests/transcription for live letters usually take a few days for SE to make

[limber parcel]

Ah okay, will keep an eye out for it then, thanks!

[outer mural]

no

if endwalker is not out then you do not get access to either

[native belfry]

That's a good question, when is the early access now?

[fossil bloom]

[frozen badge]

Yea i saw that, but you also learn some spells in raids and dungeons without being blue mage there, as i read, but wasn't sure about in open world

[warm snow]

#resources

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks ☺️

[warm snow]

... You can't

You have to be a blue mage to learn shit as a blue mage

You have to be in combat with the enemy and it has to cast the spell

it's a japanese tv show that FFXIV had a crossover with a few years back

so people want it back

would it be a waste to keep playing at a locked lvl 60 char or does the xp somehow get saved up?

[spiral mango]

question

what are diadem scrips useful for ?

[brittle umbra]

how long does it take to get 100 leves?

[hot eagle]

you can buy glam, emotes, mounts and dyes with it line the gunmetal black

[warped nest]

3 leve every 12 hours

So 6 leve a day, so 16.5 days to get 99

[azure dagger]

Should I be doing leves as part of my dailies then?

[warped nest]

If you are leveling doh and dol, sure

[azure dagger]

I am not

[warped nest]

If you are using it to level combat jobs, don't bother

[azure dagger]

Got ya

[warped nest]

You are better off doing dungeons, or even fates if you only needed a small amount to level up

[spiral mango]

so for gatherers

when talking about optimal gear

if I am lvl 54, what ilvl should I have

or is it irrelevant as long as my ore has 100% chance to get

[honest anvil]

as long as you can do your job quests on your way to 80, gears arent important til then

60, 70 have scrips gears, can look into that as lving gears

job quest gears are usable as lving gears too

[opaque anvil]

Got to level 66 BLM, how do I incorporate Triple Cast into my rotation?

[leaden granite]

whats the point of the repeatable "all grind is not gloom" quest after finishing the nier raids?

are there any good rewards behind it ?

just leveled up to 52 but i can't see my job quest. any idea why?

[honest anvil]

some lore

[honest anvil]

!faq whynojobquest

[zinc orbit]

Why am I Past lv50 Without the Abilities of My Job

Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in , you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.

Image URL: https://imgur.com/IQgUjw7.png

[opaque anvil]

You need to be in the Heavensward expansion to get the job quest

[somber quiver]

oh i see

[spiral mango]

thats the issue one super low lvl miner quest i got, had me mine sth and it barely had 30% chance to get with buffs gear etc, and im like 54 when the quest was 20~

[honest anvil]

can invest in a lv54 tool set if you’re really strugging

[mint ferry]

What are some ways to make gil? My friends and I are completely broke like, all the time

[honest anvil]

roulette, treasure maps, extreme farm, and crafting/ gathering

[lament pilot]

the main guy in ishgard isn't approving some of the items I got from gathering in the diadem. is there someone else who approves stuff or am I missing something?

[honest anvil]

approved = can be sold on mb
no = cant be sold; use yourself for crafting

[cursive ridge]

so once you deck out yourself and your retainers in white scrips stuff, is there a good reason to continue doing white gatherer scrips?

[honest anvil]

materia

stock those then sell come endwalker

[cursive ridge]

you can get gatherer materia for white scrips?

[honest anvil]

in others tab

bunch of mats in there

[cursive ridge]

the prices kinda bite

[honest anvil]

ye, that’s why they sell well

[blazing sorrel]

Is the ivalice story worth reading? I dont like it so far but is it worth reading?

[warm snow]

Except gatherer materia doesn't sell very well

Because diadem extraction and sky builder scrips

[cursive ridge]

in my opinion it is the worst storyline currently in ff14, if you've never played the game that this storyline is referencing

[honest anvil]

^ not false x2

[cursive ridge]

it's just a bunch of confusing nonsense

[blazing sorrel]

So if i havent played tactics i should ignore?

[cursive ridge]

i would say yes

[blazing sorrel]

Ill play it for the raids

[cursive ridge]

the raids are great but the lore dumps between them are dry and inconsequential

[honest anvil]

both ways … i played tactics .. went in excited, then hate every single bit of it

[blazing sorrel]

Unfortunate

Also is it better done on the party finder cuz the wait time is 30mins+

[honest anvil]

but that’s just an imo, you might like it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[cursive ridge]

you will never find enough people to run it in party finder

[blazing sorrel]

Nvm you cant do it on the party finder can you

[cursive ridge]

do it at peak population times

usually in the evenings for your region

[honest anvil]

you can pf it but it will take just as long

gathering 24 people for that raid series never will be fast

[cursive ridge]

for europe, the evening time right after the daily reset is best

[blazing sorrel]

Also is eurika only relic grind or is story tied to it

[cursive ridge]

there is story in it

but if you have something more important to do, do that first

the lead writer suggested to do Omega and Coils raids before endwalker and finish the job quests

[blazing sorrel]

Yeah i got those done as soon as i could

[sacred oracle]

Have anyone tried solo lv80 portal from treasure map? If yes what job you use?

[cursive ridge]

that is futile

[obsidian patio]

basically impossible/takes too long

[sacred oracle]

I see

Oh welpp thanks xD

[cursive ridge]

a group of tank\heal will be able to do it i believe

[jade quartz]

2 manning is doable but risky

3 manning is comfy

[cursive ridge]

it will just take longer

[sacred oracle]

Ah okay

[cursive ridge]

maybe once we have lvl 80 BLUs it will be soloable

[sacred oracle]

Gonna try with WAR and a DPS

[cursive ridge]

you're gonna need some heals

make the dps go as RDM at least

[shrewd drum]

Is there a cheaper way to get gathering gear for level 60 than the market?

[cursive ridge]

scrips

is 0 gil

[shrewd drum]

The ones from Ishguard?

[cursive ridge]

idyllshire has vendors for it

[shrewd drum]

ohh ok

[cursive ridge]

look for Scrips Vendor

you get yellow scrips by Custom Deliveries / Collectables

[supple narwhal]

in final furlong fight in bozja. what is the deal with hands?
when you look at them they stop ok. but what about tthe rush?

[cursive ridge]

is that the fight with the NPC spamming aoe at the boss?

if so, you need to lure the hands into the blue circle and stop them there

[shrewd drum]

The scrip exchange only has level 50 and 80 for me

[cursive ridge]

i'm not sure what are the requirements for unlocking the option, but there should be (Lv 61) too

[fossil bloom]

how do i augment exarchic gear?

[supple narwhal]

yes thats it ty

[cursive ridge]

there also should be a vendor that sells level 60 capped gear for blue scrips

you can get blue scrips from yellow

also the Lv 50 gets you lvl 58 gear which is pretty good

[cursive ridge]

there's a gear exchange vendor near the main aetheryte in eulmore

[fossil bloom]

how much do i need to pay?

[cursive ridge]

you will need to turn in exarchic pieces

[leaden ginkgo]

I know that the housing lottery system will be one ticket per player. Do you guys think that would extend to free companies, too? Or will my gf and I be able to try for two houses for one free company? I have 100mil saved up, so I’m hoping I can try for one large and she can go for another elsewhere.

[cursive ridge]

to get tokens to upgrade other exarchic pieces

[obsidian patio]

From my understanding/interpretation of the slides, only one ticket per FC.

[leaden ginkgo]

Ah alright, fair. I didn’t read the notes or slides so I was hoping someone did on that.

[obsidian patio]

Otherwise a person would invite a bunch of sockpuppet accounts to the FC to buy tickets at every plot of land

[sullen cairn]

If I were to subscribe to the game now (currently free trial) and that would run out what would be the consequence? Would I lose things like gil over the limit or my level progress? And how long would I have time to resubscribe until they just delete data?

[obsidian patio]

You cannot play at all until you sub again

[peak dove]

with the number squishes coming in the new expansion what will max level be?

[cursive ridge]

also i dont know if it's a new requirement, but they specifically mentioned that to buy a FC House you need to have at least 4 players in the FC

[obsidian patio]

data/characters never get deleted due to inactivity

[cursive ridge]

level doesnt get squished

only the stats

i think i remember reading somewhere that there's some sort of diary that the main character has kept, and you can read from his/her POV? where can i find this?

[cursive ridge]

in the inn room

"The neverending story" to look up all the quests you've done

oh, you mean some sort of additional material

dunno

google 'ffxiv short stories', maybe that's what you're looking for, there's a bunch of official ones on the lodestone

[iron yarrow]

hmmm maybe that's it

[cursive ridge]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/#side_storyes
here's the index

also, lol at 'storyes'

[fossil bloom]

so basically i have to buy exarchic gear twice?

[obsidian patio]

no

[cursive ridge]

not quite

it's intended to be upgraded in pieces

so you turn in pieces you no longer need

[obsidian patio]

If you buy HQ exarchic gear, the exchange is 1:1 for the augmented version of the same type

[cursive ridge]

to get mats for ones you still use

[limber jolt]

How do I summon my minion?

[obsidian patio]

character > minion guide

[sullen cairn]

So is there anything I should do in the trial before I upgrade to the full game?

[cursive ridge]

unless the monthly subscription is a burden to you, not really

[fossil bloom]

but all of my exarchic gear is in use :/

[limber jolt]

Thanks.

[fossil bloom]

i'm too chickenshit to try eden raids for better gear

[obsidian patio]

You upgrade pieces as you can so you don't have an empty slot

[cursive ridge]

if you don't mind the 15 dollars a month or whatever it costs, just buy it

[sullen cairn]

It is making be a bit unsure if I can mentally survive getting pulled into this game

[half scarab]

can someone help me where is this? cant find it 😂

[obsidian patio]

x30, y11

[half scarab]

thankyou

[weary rover]

Hey, i'm about to buy 180 days of game time for the first time
Does anyone want me to enter their recruitment code?
I heard you can only do it once?

[warm snow]

Yes but I already capped on recruits

[lament pilot]

I can get you one

[warm snow]

So if you want to be nice you can go to r/ffxivraf and advertise

[weary rover]

I tried DM'ing you to ask for yours since you helped me with some questions

[weary rover]

👍

[warm snow]

My dms are open, I don't take friend request randomly tho

[lament pilot]

43AJS4JC if you'd like to use mine 🙂

[weary rover]

I can't send you anything though

but then you can decline it, ty both!

[bleak cipher]

Does gear break inside savage raid?

or once you go outside the instance?

[warm snow]

It'll break inside

[brazen zodiac]

how do I call a winning hand in mahjong?

[warm snow]

Just be an omnicrafter and repair your own gear

Gear durability changes when you clear an instance or die

Whichever comes first

[bleak cipher]

I remember an update where they updated gears not to break anymore in the instance? Is that just for dungeons?

[warm snow]

Probably dungeons if at all idk

If you're going into high end content with gear about to break you should know better

[inland pasture]

What's the SB beast quests for combat job exp?

[lament pilot]

gear definitely breaks when spamming bahamut t2 runs for what it's worth

[obsidian patio]

the game will let you pick Ron or Tsumo when it's a winning hand.

[warm snow]

The sneks and the ninja turtles

[warm snow]

Coils are high end content

[brazen zodiac]

thank you

[obsidian patio]

If it doesn't then you don't have one yet or you put yourself in Furiten by discarding a Tile that would've won it for you.

[warm snow]

So Wynne do you know this from experience with full on mahjong or ff14 mahjong

Also nice omori pic

[obsidian patio]

I played a lot of the FF14 mahjong

and a bit of it from the Yakuza games

I still very much suck at it, but I know the general gist of it.

[spiral mango]

question im in my GC, where do I buy lvl 60 gatherer accessories ?

[obsidian patio]

with Yellow Scrips in Idyllshire/Ishgard.

GC doesn't sell level 60 crafting/gathering gear

[spiral mango]

oh

[gloomy mortar]

What is the difference between Role Quest and Job Quest?

[spiral mango]

so firmament or crozier ?

[warm snow]

Ones for a group of a certain role

Ones for an individual job

So any tank can do a tank role quest

[obsidian patio]

I prefer the blue bag vendor at the big ishgard aetheryte

[warm snow]

Only pld can do pld job quests

[solid garnet]

expansion releases 9th?

[patent citrus]

you think I should bank some blu scrips token for "future use"?

[spiral mango]

it got delayed for 2 weeks

[warm snow]

No

[patent citrus]

to trade for crystal sand

[warm snow]

3rd of Dec for early access

[solid garnet]

jesus

[warm snow]

7th for official release

[patent citrus]

like just in case I wanted some new anime for some classes

cause I totally missed the memo for the blu scrips change

[warm snow]

Go to #rants if you take issue please

[warm snow]

You have an extra 2 weeks just get all the anima relics done in that time

[patent citrus]

ye, I'm not getting that >.>

[warm snow]

Select a subcategory @spiral mango

[spiral mango]

there is no subcategory.

[warm snow]

Then you didn't unlock the scrip vendor

[spiral mango]

how do i unlock

[obsidian patio]

!faq scripunlock

[zinc orbit]

2nd quest

[warm snow]

Wynne beat me to it

[brazen zodiac]

I don't get this

what?

[rugged thicket]

nothing, surprised to see u here

[brazen zodiac]

yo

[obsidian patio]

You're in Furiten because you recently tossed a 1-dot, which makes your hand invalid for winning.

[brazen zodiac]

how do I call a riichi?

[obsidian patio]

You can't call Riichi if you called a Pon/Chi/Kan

[brazen zodiac]

oh

I mean, how do I call it since I am in another round

[obsidian patio]

You'll be able to call Riichi once you're one tile away from winning

[brazen zodiac]

ok

[fervent coral]

What are the specific dungeons I need to do to unlock lvl 80 dungeons? Is there a webpage for them?

[obsidian patio]

!faq contentunlock

[gloomy mortar]

Meld Aesthete gear with Gathering instead of Perception now that HQ isn’t in Endwalker?

[obsidian patio]

The non-story dungeons needed are Akadaemia Anyder and the Twinning.

[fervent coral]

Ah yes. The Twinning.

[obsidian patio]

Perception in 6.0 will be used to proc a buff that increases the yield on your current gather by 1.

And I bet some of your skills will still scale based on perception.

[sage ice]

If I were to world transfer onto a world where someone locked my name on a lvl 1 alt am I just doomed to change my name or is there a priority?

[fervent coral]

Just one more stupid question and I'll stop bothering yall.

Do the normal raids routlette only consist of the Alexander raids?

[warm snow]

Until you unlock omega and Eden yes

Coils are not in roulettes

[obsidian patio]

You'll be forced to change your name.

[warm snow]

Do they charge you for that name change Wynne?

I'm curious

[obsidian patio]

nope!

You could probably try to do some 5-head big brain strats to get a free name change that way with alt characters.

...if it works.

[spiral mango]

and uh how do i get these blue gatherer's scrip tokens ?

[sage ice]

Id rather pay to keep it sadly haha, rough your name isn't locked DC wide as I'm effectively blocked from transferring because someone either enjoyed my name or thought of it only to make an alt..

[obsidian patio]

buy them with yellow scrips or just buy the gear directly with yellow scrips at the ishgard vendor

[spiral mango]

the blue sack vendor on foundation?

[obsidian patio]

yep

[spiral mango]

nice, ty

[candid tulip]

I have been trying to get a new chocobo color, but I have always gotten different colors than I wanted :)

[velvet shoal]

Hey guys i buyed Tales of Adventure: One Black Mage's Journey II to skip to level 70 do i need Tales of Adventure: Stormblood?

[tropic flame]

nope

unless you want to skip stormblood as well

[warped nest]

Getting a high level job but doesn't skip story is very unnecessary

[spiral mango]

it seems there are 2 kinds of yellow scrips or no ?

[warped nest]

Unless your goal is to unlock an expansion job

[obsidian patio]

crafter and gatherer

Each one uses their own scrips

[spiral mango]

dont you get

gatherer ones, by auto submiting in firmament ?

[velvet shoal]

So skipping level jobs doesnt skip questing?

[obsidian patio]

no, those are Skybuilder scrips

[warped nest]

No

[spiral mango]

oh

[tropic flame]

its separate

[spiral mango]

how do i get the gatherer ones then

[warped nest]

If you skip questing, but doesn't skip job, it is very straightforward to grind level

[obsidian patio]

turn in rarefied gathering items from unspoiled nodes

[warped nest]

Since you no longer need to run around to unlock dungeons

[obsidian patio]

or do custom deliveries as a gatherer

[coarse isle]

Does anyone know a good video to learn about the transition and lore from FFXIV version one to ARR? I'd ask Lore spoilers but I'm still doing story in ARR and dont want to risk spoiling anything

[velvet shoal]

Okee understand

Gonna buy Tales of Adventure: Stormblood to

[spiral mango]

is there a bot command for these 2 things should I google them or what

[velvet shoal]

And see how it is

[warped nest]

We strongly recommend playing the game at your own pace, and don't worry about rushing

But in the end it is your choice to make

[obsidian patio]

http://garlandtools.org/bell/ and type "Rarefied" into the search bar. Pay attention to the level of the nodes too

!faq dolcollect

[velvet shoal]

Yeah i rushed to fast already rushed to 70🤣
