Where on my computer can I find the FFXIV sound files? Trying to find Gangos Theme
Where can I go to find good free companies? Like is there a list or something?
!faq communityfinder
Lodestone also Reddit has a Recruitment SR I believe
hey did they remove the legacy mark on the inside of the blade's shield?
Like, the name of it?
Yes
The names aren't listed anywhere in the game files.
Ok, where are the files listed? Didnt see them in the FFXIV Program Files x86
The Gangos theme is just called "Gangos".
You can find the names of the tracks on the official albums.
@scarlet venture You'd need to use a utility like FF14 File explorer.
hey, a friend got me interested in the game so I'm trying to download it, but the download's been a hell of a ride. It started at a decent 1mb/s, but halfway through the download, my internet cut out and the download restarted. since then it's been super inconsistent, I had it at 5mb/s for like 5 minutes, now it's just stopped downloading for the past hour.
my question is, I saw someone say there's like a third party launcher that's better, my download's at 50%, is it worth stopping it to use the other launcher
or is there something else I can do
!faq quicklauncher
Thanks @errant palm
@open coral Any idea if it will improve my download speeds?
Also @open coral Gangos is not on any of the Official OSTs.
Is there a way to filter only the fisher collectibles on GarlandTools? For miner and botanist its easy because you can just type rarefied on the search bar, but for fishing, none of them have the name rarefied on them
It is. It's on the Death Unto Dawn soundtrack.
I don't have any first hand experience with it, since I've never had any issues with downloads from the standard launcher. But from what I understand, yes. It should.
Assuming the problem isn't like, your internet.
Yeah no, its not. I was testing with Steam games and its much faster
@open coral @chrome belfry I highly suggest using that launcher. Immediately its patching 15x faster
As I said. Never been an issue for me, so I don't really care to mess around with it. But if it's doing better for you, then that's great.
yeah it's downloading much better, wish I knew about this before I spent 24 hours to get 30% through
can commercial survival manual be bought ?
Which grand company should I choose in the story?
Oh so it doesn't affect the actual story
no
You can switch once a week as well
For a small sum of gil as well as saving your current Grand Company progression
I'll go with Ul'dah now since its where I started I guess
so im trynna mine https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Adamantite_Ore i use lay of the land and it detects nothing, im at the specified location. do i need to use a specific skill? i have 4 activated

ah i see
i see just have to wait then ig
is there a teleport spot to Vesper bay?
No, because lore reasons
Is Stormblood included in the FF XIV free trial or is that part of shadowbringers now?
Shadowbringers
ah thxs
Should I build for SPS or crit for blm?
Where do u get byakko totem?
afaik sps is more reliable damage wise but it's more important to play the one you're more comfortable with
By doing the EX
the jade stoa extreme, to be specific
It drops from the chest?
or the boss itself
you get it from killing the boss
it exists as a pity system in case you don't get the things that drop from the chest
I honest to goodness wonder
Why do the Job Gauges seem to just reset?
It works the same as every other Extreme past ARR
Wdym
I got all jobs to 80, and I like to set em as simple, move them and such
Every so randomly, one of my Jobs, the unused ones at that? Just goes back to default, and resets its position
It happens so unusually often that i unno what background notes its doing
Each one has different default positions
wtf is this 1 node per 12 E hours ?
Eorezan hours
Well the point is it resets ;x
no i know what it means i just dont understand
One eorezan day is 72min
holy shit
As every eorezan hour is 7mins
When someone logs in with a newly-created character for the first time, are they in an instanced zone until they go to the next zone?
Yes
so i go to mine it, there is like 5% chance to get it and theres one node per half an hour
I don't have it since I skipped with this character
(I'm not doing ARR a third time)
You can reclaim it in the forgotten knight or Rhalgars reach
If it is lost, a replacement can be obtained from Gibrillont in the Forgotten Knight in Foundation or from Gaufrid in Rhalgar's Reach in The Fringes.
jesswren is in the crystarium
alright, I got it
Thank you
I went to the forgotten knight
ahh, it was on the beach. Thanks y'all
its HQ not normal quality lol
Point still stands
hey does new game+ include job quests?
Yes
is there like a table on the ilvl of gatherer's gear I should have? how do i know if its bad good average

if you just want a table
how do you get raiden thrust ready?
is there a pic showing the positions
What's the meld priority for crafters? Is it job specific?
It’s based on what you’re wanting to craft.
But as a general rule you usually want to try to max out the CP of the item if possible
It doesn’t unlock any of the 8-man and 24-man raid series that aren’t the Crystal tower
It should give every optional dungeon
So if you weren't crafting HQ things, you should go for CP > craftsmanship > control?
If you aren’t going for HQ, then you don’t need CP. Crafts are ridiculously easy to do if you ignore the quality bar.
Guys,
I haven't played in a year.
What should I do now to catch up?
I only got level 490 gear. It seems like new main quests got added as well
But you should always try to go for HQ, especially on combat/crafting gear.

could i clear and prog this in one night
it seems like there are so many mechanics to remember
Definitely
diamond ex seemed easier
With a good group, you completely skip the last phase
Depends on how long "one night" is.
How do I know what mq part I am at?
4 hours
i dont want it to take more than 4 hours to clear
this counts finding people
You have a tracker
!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.
Sure, that's possible. Like always though it depends on the skill level of the rest of your party.
This is not mq then?
It is
Anything with a unique symbol is MSQ
And the tracker should say that quest name
Hi quick question. If I prepurchase Endwalker does it come with a monthly subscription?
But how do I know if I have quest 5.3 ?
@chrome pilotIt does not come with a free month of game time, if that's what you meant.
If you use it before the spell finishes casting, yes.
oh okay thanks!
So I was just doing some lvl 1 leves and I got a message saying my lvl is too great and that I would get a penalty if I keep doing them?
is it possible to auto target the closest enemy or something?
Yes, that's how it works
i need advice on gearing for alt jobs
Combat or...?
yes
No. It means you won't get the full rewards of the leve, iirc.
You’ll know when you’re done with 5.3
What do u mean?
You’re at the very start of 5.2 btw
before lvl 50 unlocks tomestone gear, what gear should i be using to avoid cluttering my inventory?
Wasn't replying to you
i'm thinking i will just craft a HQ set for lvl 20 and lvl 40 and use those exclusively
I'm a completionist so I just wanted to do them all lol
Okay thank you!
if you're not anticipating the rewards of the leve then it doesn't matter ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah thanks thought it would affect the rest of the gameplay
Whats the best way to level up 71-80 as a dps that isn't doing msq
Bozja
You can enter as lvl 71 and your gear and your level gets upscaled to lvl 80 while you still earn xp, decent xp even
@leaden ginkgo where bozja
You have done the Ivalice raids, yeah?
Oh I haven't got there
At first Yes
How do I get the relics
is there any option for autodismount ingame?
Do the lv70 24mans fully and finish shadowbringers
Is it possible to auto target the closest enemy constantly?
The whole of it
like dismount when i try to cast an ability instead of having to recast the mount
?
You need 5.1 done to access bojza
No
Bozja is an area, not a dungeon or raid
You need to complete Shadowbringers 5.1 and the Ivalice raids to unlock it
Does anyone know this?
No
there's a keybind to target closest enemy
it's unbound by default so you have to assign it
do squadron members ever unlock the specialization classes or always stay the same jobs?
They don't
huh
Unfortunately they remain like that, also they generally suck at certain mechanics
What does it mean when an item in a gather node has "Hidden" next to it?
It's rng to spawn in the node
im just running them cause potd is killing my mind and so is dps queue
Do the voices for the WoL sound different in JP as compared to english?
It means you don't see that on every node
because i kinda fantasia'd to the wrong voice and its really bothering me, dont wanna buy another fantasia again lol
if I fight a mob, do I always have to press tab after killing one mob to go to the other? because my attacks button dont work
Yes
If it hits you
And you can confirm by using a skill
If you really wanted to auto target closest, you could bind it and then run a macro that presses the key 24/7 lmaooooo
or y'know just press tab
Eh, that's a bad advice
I mean mobs do switch positions sometimes
Im pretty sure on the playstation u automatically attacked the one most nearby
Constantly flicking between targets sure is unfun
yeah, would never want it to always auto-target closest
double sucks when you're minmaxing targetted AoEs too
you could be targetting something on the edge of a pile of mobs instead of the middle
Yep
You dont
Controllers have to target just as much as pc
i am at grenoldt but he does not have dancer gear, did i miss something ?
Do the role quests
I would be surprised if Grenoldt had a dancer gear... just imagine him in that Thavnairian bustier...
where should i check my role quests ?
!faq rolequests
What are Role Quests?
Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.
At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.
I can't find where I left off!
No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.
Tank Role Quests
Healer Role Quests
Physical DPS Role Quests
Magical DPS Role Quests
i got it for my warrior. do i have to do this for dancer too i guess ?
Yes
Yep
thx guys!
any free triala ccounts want to start subscription, if you use this code HSS2EWXA you will get rewards!!!!
Not the place to do that
!faq raf
Is this wearable?
no, that outfit is not available for players
quick TT question, has the cloud TT card ever gone on sale? Or it has always been 1mil?
Always been 1mil, it didn't go on sale even during the MGP event
Does releasing fish actually affect fish poulations?
Cool
I see players hugging each other and all but I can't seem to do it with my friend any reason?
Is it embrace?
What class has highest melee dps? 👀
Because you have standard hug and embrace
Oh I'll check
Melee classes
Which one lol?
Which one do you like?
Reposting this here: Kinda salty I have to finish Heavensward msq before I get access to the materials that let me craft at that point
Is it like that for the rest of the expansions
Kinda curious because I really enjoy the crafting and just wanna plan ahead
The holy rainbow stuff
Idk, I want to pick the melee class that has the highest dps overall lol
The DPS difference barely matters
If you mean you have to unlock areas to get the mats, yes
Like, there is a tiny bit of potential DPS difference, but skills matter a lot more
Your personal skills
Yes because you need materials from zones you unlock via the MSQ
Naw, I mean the actual materials are only available to you after a certain point in msq
Also next expansion is in less than 30 days so balance will get a new shuffle lol
Holy water is only available after getting access to the Ishgardian rebuilding thing
If you want to craft stuff from a certain expansion bracket you're generally expected to have the zones unlocked
No its not
To turn scrips in for mats
you can craft holy water yourself
False
Woah okay didn't know that
at most you need lv55
I never noticed, then again never touched crafting before finishing ShB
to be able to access churning mists
Aw geez Im an idiot i see it now
literally nothing about holy rainbow requires you to finish 3.0
Thanks guys
Right click > recipe tree next time
Also I kinda wonder what do you mean by "Melee DPS"
Do you mean the job that does the most raw DPS?
I saw a healer once out DPS a DPS job
The theoretical "top" DPS are Samurai and Black Mage
I have ARR through ShB on PC.
I just bought EW for PC. I have the activation key, just used it in Mogstation, and it now says that I have EW early access. But I never saw a download button. Did I do something wrong?
In practice it's whichever job does their rotation 100% perfectly with 0% downtime
EW literally isn't available yet
EW early access is on Dec 3
You can't download what isn't out
Also weird question, does anyone know why BLM does more rDPS than SAM, but SAM does more aDPS?
https://www.fflogs.com/zone/statistics/38#dataset=99&aggregate=amount
This is what I was looking for, thank you.
Fair, fair, it was a dumb question. Just wanted to make sure I'm not crazy. Site was like "MAKE SURE TO CLICK DOWNLOAD" and I was like, "but the expansion ain't out yet."
I thought both jobs have no rDPS stuff?
Just wanted to check, sorry, and thanks >_<
If it says you have it on mogstation you're all set once EW maintenance is over

No, you're fine

Like I said it was a dumb question, but I'd rather be dumb now than on release day 
I'm dumb on any day
For free
Same
We're all dumb on this blessed day
Am I misunderstanding something? Or are the lowest level gathering collectables 51, but they're aren't available until you are 55 for their nodes? Seems to be what I'm seeing.
anyways shoo there's more questions to answer
Which collectibles are you looking at
Because anything that is NOT RAREFIED X is no long available
Rarefied Pyrite in this case, seems to be the first collectable for Miners
Are you looking at the right nodes
I mean, the log says it's available in the wastes at 55
Because there's frequently subsections of nodes that have vastly different materials
nvm figured it out,
aDPS values your ability to go brrr under buffs, rDPS don't
Unspoiled Mineral Deposit
At the way it works is you see nodes up to x5 of your level bracket
So at 1, you can see level 5 nodes, 5 you can see level 10 nodes, so on and so forth
OK, so it'd just be a low chance to acquire at first.
Unspoiled node 4-6am/pm
Not even that low tbh assuming you're using vendor gear
Unspoiled mineral deposits happen at certain times btw, keep that in mind
that too
Recommend setting your in game clock to Eorzea time
48 minutes a day, most nodes spawn twice at day, 12 ET hours apart
Also why the hell the game is so coy when it comes to ephemeral nodes? Like it says when unspoiled nodes appear, you can even set an alarm but not for ephemeral
So you can do collectibles about every 24 minutes, but the speed strat once you hit 'max' level is to rotate between collectible nodes to maintain GP regeneration uptime
Because ephemeral nodes are always up
Nope
they're always available
They spawn at a specific hour and remain for an hour
For That node
Once that node is gone another one is immediately available somewhere else
No
yes
Pretty sure not, I don't think I noticed it ever respawn
it does
It does
you just need to interact with 4 near by nodes
actually they changed that and made is so you can just rotate between ephemeral nodes now so you don't have to tap 4 other random nodes
That what separate them from unspoiled
They never in spawn as 4, best I saw was 3
and the emphereal will be gatherable again until its timer runs out
That and when the window closes another one immediately pops
there's always 3 sets of 2 nodes near the ephemeral
You gather/check 4 nodes nearby
How do I customize my mount (chocobo) and is there a way to make it move faster?
You can unlock bardings by buying/crafting and you can dye it by putting it in a Chocobo housing thing and feeding it over a period of time certain fruits
Aethersands drop 1 to 3 normally bonus drops double of original results rng tho. 1000 collectability automatic aethersand drop anything less is rng.
Node times
Miner
8am to 12pm
12am to 4am
4pm to 8pm
Botanist
12pm to 4pm
8pm to 12am
4am to 8am
Rotation 700gp with max collectability results
Scrutiny
Meticulous
Scrutiny
Meticulous
Scour if 800/10...
I don't think I unlocked that yet? I just got a chocobo mount
That's Shadowbringers
Same rules apply
What about ephemeral of Stormblood or Heavensward
And we’re in ShB
The nodes follow the same rules
Your rotation doesn't change and the same technique still applies
Is reflect worse than muscle memory for high difficulty crafting?
You find emphemeral > you loop ephemeral > you keep collecting until window closes > you find new emphemeral nodes
Depends what you need
Dependent on your rotation and craft
Okay but that doesn't change the fact ephemeral spawns at a specific hour
Because that’s their gimmick
And another set immediately pop right afterwards, you just have to find it
It alternates between BTN and MIN nodes
how would I choose the one I need?
Does it tho?
Usually the minimum stats (before buffs) are listed in the macro if you're looking at those
Based on your stats, what rotation you're doing and stuff
Yes I literally spent weeks ephemeral farming for crafting
Abd if you need more progress or quality
Stormblood spoilers:
What would in theory happen if after ||Urianger and Y'shtola collapse in SB 4.4|| and I continue doing the Heavensward trial quests in which they appear. They should be ||passed the fuck out||, but then they'd just be there in the side quest?
I never switched between jobs before so no idea
Time bubble shenanigans
content happens in the patch its released in
Content happens at the time it's introduced
so if it was released in 3.0, what has happened in 4.4 has no bearing on it
Ain't there some side quests though that involve ||Papalymo||?
the only alternative is that you wouldn't be able to do content until missing characters come back
The scion are still there in their places even in shadowbringers
if they even do come back
It results in some weird things happening but it's better this way
Instead of just straight up removing content
stares at certain other games
so it's stat dependant basically? neither is explicitly better than the other in most situations?
Pretty sure ||Papalymo|| is spoken to in the waking sand for a side quest thing. Would he just be there? xD
yes
yes, he would be
because that would be the 2.0 version or w/e patch that content is released in
as would ||urianger||
Well would you rather be permanently locked out of sidequest content otherwise
Is this safe to click? I'm still in 4.4...
yes
Weird if you go back, makes sense from a timeline perspective
is a char you've already mentioned
It’s magic, stop questioning things
Any tips for alchemist hotbar? At level 38 currently and I feel like I could make my whole process of getting quality up more efficient
I know that’s super vague and out of nowhere but idk, just wondering
Anydoo, I never needed ephemeral so much, my issue is you can't tie an alarm to it nor the game tells you when it pops also not all ephemeral nodes have the same mats on both BTN and MIN
That is indeed super vague, what do you use right now?
anyone can tell me which haircut this is?
You can set timers for ehpemerals tho?
Manually
Pretty much just been using basic touch/standard touch combo, using TotT when quality changes from normal, master’s mend when I’m almost out of durability and then basic synthesis
??
I just joined the storm private company as part of the hero quest and I want to get seals so I can start the mount quest but there are no supply or provisioning quests available, is it a daily thing where I have to pick up missions earlier?
Try to use the stack one... forgot its name
i have been doing little but gathering and crafting for weeks and i did not know this was a thing
inner quiet?
It doesn't let me do that
then its because you haven't gathered from it
Perhaps
Yes
I see, that does make sense
What if I gathered from it and still doesn't show time tho?
it will
if you've collected an item, it will show the time it appears if it's on a timed node
You don’t have crafters or gatherers, thus no missions for them
are those the retainer things?
no
The realm's premier publication on beauty and fashion, this specific copy of Modern Aesthetics covers, in detail, a hair styling technique which ...
disciple of the hand and land jobs
Also the next msq gives 300 seals so do it
They're classes
Thanks! I didn't know about that cool website
so where would i go to learn the crafting then?
I thought I was done with ARR until I saw the second part 😞
Crafters have their own skills and are their own classes
Got their own gear, stats and everything
What is the state of machinist? Is it a good time to play and level this job?
or is it c l u n k
!faq meta
is the only other way to get storm seals public events?
For the most part no job really has glaring issues now
ah okay flamethrower time 🙂
the grand company hunting log, and daily roulettes in the duty finder will reward them
leveling and guildhest roulettes give seals
And as I just mentioned
The Quest should give you some
it said that I couldn't join the hunts or something like that
msq?
ah
Just do the next MSQ, then spend those seals on your first mount
200
Msq gives 300
alright, thanks
So you can get a chocobo and still have 100
What ring should I get for SAM slaying fending or aiming?
Aiming is for ranged classes
slaying
do they sell anything relevant or useful after the mount?
Yes, plenty and lot
good
although nothing you'll really afford with just 100 seals
but you'll have plenty of chance to bank up seals later
im still not 100
the mount is the most impactful thing you can spend those seals on right now
For starters you can get glamour prisms and dispellers which are basically the most needed items ever
you grab them like any other class, they're available across the three big cities
and they have their own abilities and mechanics related to crafting and gathering items
Crafting is basically any combat class, but as a Crafter, your fights are on the marketboard
oh, i thought they were a job
They're
so they're a class and a job?
Nope
Just jobs
Classes are the starter things you pick like archer
Altho
Crafting jobs do lack soul gems like classes
soul gems?
Yep
Soul Crystals
Every job has a soul gem/crystal
Archer with one becomes bard, gladiator becomes paladin etc.
what does maraurder become?
warrior
Warrior
Warriro
Some don't even exist without it, like Gunbreaker or dark knight
is warrior good?
Yes
!faq meta
all jobs are good
what level do you use soul gems at?
30
you get them at level 30
or well, you get access to the quest that grants them at level 30
You should not be above 30 without one
the little mini-quests that appear below your main scenario quest on the big tracker are class quests
Unless you are massively overleveled and have not unlocked hte MSQ yet
but I get my last ability at lvl 50
that's where it's wrong, actually
False
you get your last marauder ability

however, once you get your warrior soulgem your action list expands greatly
until you get your crystal
so new class justs adds more skills to my list?
indeed
i thought it would be transitioning to a completley different one
Nope
nah, a job is an upgraded version of a class
The ARR jobs just upgrade
job does whatever that class did, just way better
jobs are extensions to classes, not something completely new
You build on your already existing one
Almost all of your basic rotations are formed by class skills
so i'll get the soul gem quest at lvl 30?
yes
Aye
As long as you have completed your job quests to that point
assuming you've done all of your marauder class quests so far
!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.
assuming you also did all you class quests up to that point
The quest in #2
which you should
You should never let a quest in that spot be left undone
Those quests take priority over main story
every class quest i've done has been a main scenario quest though
Nope
those aren't class quests
if you look at the guide above, class quests are 2
Class quests aren't MSQ
Under the main tracker
if i don't have a class quest then all i need to do is go to the guild right?
Nope
If it's not there, means you did it
If you don't have class quests atm it means you are caught up for that level
if no class quest is displayed underneath the tracker, it means you don't have one available—which means you've done all you can so far
Unless you just completed the lvl 30 job quest that grants you the soul crystal
Class quests unlock every 5 levels in ARR
im lvl 27 so im guessing i just need lvl 30 then
Yep
Nice
aight
Once you got your soul crystal I do recommend however saving your set in the gear sets
Even before then
why are they so needed?
So if you switch jobs you can always switch back
Because looking good is more important than everything else

I recommend after so you don't forget the Crystal
A person who cleared the hardest fight in the game is not as cool as a person who cleared it and has a cool outfit

I have not mentioned a single bit about glam plates 😗
Then why are you talking about glams
Scroll up
Oh
I didn't see they replied to the old message
so so glams are endgame fashion?
No
Glams are fashion in general
They are all game fashion
Gearsets?
i heard i can get previous steps of anima weapons for glamour after completing the entire weapon. where do i get it?
Gear sets are basically snapshots of your currently equipped items
hello, im gathering opinions on which class people think is the easiest to get the title necromancer with, anybody?
the node on the other side of the circle
Reconstruction node
MCH
or RDM
where is this node? i dont think i have heard of it
Azya la
ah thanks
You know the recommended gear button, press the button to the right of it
You're introduced to it when you light grind
Gear set list?
Okay so starters
Above your main hand
"You have no gear sets saved"
There should be three buttons
registered
Pretty hud you got
Press the plus
so i can go back to it when I change?
Yup
Yis
It's basically an easy way to save specific sets
because your Soul Crystal is not equipped by default when you change classes
So you don't have to go naked almost ever
why would i need to save it for the soul gem part though. won't i get better gear then?
You can update the sets
It.makes you.the job
ohhhhh
so if I change then I can go right back to this class
The refresh button updates to whatever you have equipped and saves it
Best button combo ever is recommended gear + update gear set
hey, so I was downloading the game off of that third party launcher, it finished in 2 hours but now it's stuck on 0GB left to download, patching 15/101 for the last hour, is it stuck or is that normal?
Otherwise you'd need to change weapon, equip armors and accessories, then equip job stone
When I put on the Tonfa
My class changes to "Pugilist"
Despite me having unlock "Monk" which is the upgrade.
Gearsets save the soul crystal equipped so i don't have to manually equip it every time.
If a collectable's collectability is too low for turn in, is it just junk?
yup
hello guys. i completed the role quest for phys. dps and grabd the gear from grenoldt. where can i increase my ilvl now ?
currently 423
ok thx!
And as Amykah pointed out, there's a button on the character page to automatically update the gearset.
There is no reason not to use gearset
Would it be wise to start leveling summoner? Or will the entire kit change with the rework
Gearsets are a blessing 
Essentially do I have to relearn when end comes out
Yeah, reworked in Endwalker
The kit will change, but leveling it before hand will give you a bit of a headstart
Just wait a few weeks
hmmmmm
and they share the level with Summoner
oh they do?
big brain
Where do you get Rarefied Mythrite Sand?
How?
📣 my brain is stupid, leave me alone
Schoalr isn't being reworked
it's only getting minor things
Unlike summoner, Scholar will play basically the same in EW as it does now
So learning current scholar isn't time wasted, like learning current summoner
understandable and based on what we've seen that's more or less correct
Ahhh, I see what you mean now
So very tricky question
Yeah, SCH is pretty much the same with a few adjustments
my brain no worky sometimes and i word things poorly
Do any of you all know, a Spiritbonding Guide?
Just a minor change to the AoE heal no longer using fairy gauge and getting an additional damage migitation skill
Do content near the item level of that gear
SMN rework is very massive, so the only reason to do SMN right now, is to experience old SMN before it is changed in Endwalker
THe reason i ask is to farm Grade 1 to 3 Materia
G1 materials is about 1-20 content, 2 is 21-35ish, 3 is 35 to 49
I say ish because the brackets have a lot of overlap
do you need to stick to the same range, or can you do far higher level content for the low end gear?
That's a hard question to answer but yes you generally need to be near the level of the gear to maximize spiritbond
so you'll have to do stuff level synced for maximum spritibond gains
If the gear are too low for the content, you probably don't get enough contributions
Which means low to no spirit bond
grenoldt doesn`t have a 430 waist armor for my dancer. where can i get one ?
Level 80 dungeons such as the twinning, akademia andyer, or amurot
Basically just be within a 10 ilvl difference
Waist are like accessories
Honestly is it worth it to raw farm, or just bite it and buy
I just buy mine but I've only done one zeta relic
You'll be grinding materia for a long ass time if you don't
!faq buy
what level do people usually get flying mounts at?
Everything flies
all mounts are flying mounts
You just need to unlock it
!faq flying
'How can I unlock Flying?'
Flying is unlocked in A Realm Reborn zones simply by completing the level 50 story quest 'The Ultimate Weapon'.
Flying is further unlocked in the expansions through the collecting of a zone's Aether Currents, with every zone having ten 'green' Aether Currents found in the overworld and five 'yellow' Aether Currents obtained through the MSQ and side quests marked with a plus sign. Azys Lla is the only zone to not have any green Aether Currents. You must collect all Aether Currents in a zone to be able to fly.
'Where can I find the green Aether Currents?'
Upon obtaining the Story Quest 'Divine Intervention' you get the Aether Compass, which is a key item you can use to locate the nearest non-quest Aether Current. This can be set to your Hotbar for ease of use. Alternatively, you can use this website to show the location of all Aether Currents for a zone. http://heavenswhere.com/
Should I get gloam choker or noct choker for SAM
anyone knkow how to make discord show your Ff14 zone, the job you are ,and your location?
Ironworks if you’ve got poetics to spend
Ive noticed a few friends of mine have been able to do that and want to do the same thing as well
It looks something like this
Is there any armor that can be crafted by blacksmith but not armorer?
Not really, no
!faq quicklauncher
One more, what's the best way of lvling doh? The dailies are a bit too.. searching for mats all over the world>crafting 
ty
Marketboard
Free trial player
Rip then
Oki 😢
i just hit 80 on my warrior but i still have a few msq things left any tips on how i can get my gunbreaker to do them and get the huge amount of xp not go to waste? gnb is 74 but when i try to do those msq quests it won't let me
is it worth speed levelling the gnb sand then finishing msq? or should i just finish it on warr and level other jobs later
I still think it's stupid free trial people can't buy from marketboard. I can understand not selling and keeping retainers for subs but buying should be allowed for free trial too
seems like a big waste of xp
seems like an obvious way to curb RMT
Got nothing to do with RMT
if free accounts could use the market board it woudl be rampant for rmt wdym
Why would it be?
and impossible to stop them because they;d just make a new trial
The market board is how bots transfer a large amount of money
when does black mage pick up?
They would still be capped at 300k gil
Not enough to worth it imo
I don't see it that way
Good for you
Not like I care tbh
They don't care
lmao
if there's any leeway for bots to use the marketboard, even with 300k, it will be made profitable for them somehow
These trial limitations are for the health of the game.
Please dont argue over my question
60ish
Paying customers’ experiences take priority
Can the ishgard restoration items not be HQ? I got my Ink to max quality, but there's no HQ symbol on it.
blacksmiths handle weapons so no
They’re collectibles, they don’t have quality
Ah
You need to meet a certain collectibility rating
That’s what filling the bar does
Collectibility rating replaces quality
The turn-in NPC interface shows what collectibility ratings have to be met for certain reward tiers.
What about leatherworker and weaver? What's the difference?
Kinda self explanatory ngl
I thought leather and cloth are the same thing but maybe not very same afterall

Leather is processed and refined animal skin
Uh
Cloth is made from plant fibers or another animal products, but not skin
Granted I never been /r/outside either
Cloth != clothes
Oh
That make a lot more sense now
I remember I studied English before
This is like, when you enter a fight, then you get hit by something
Then you remember “hey I know this mechanic”
Leatherworkers focus on belts, gloves and boots, whereas weaving delves more into hats, chests nad pants
This is not a hardset rule and there are some exceptions where Leatherworkers make chestpieces, but they generally focus on a certain type of gear
@mild mountain
though
the safest bet is logically asking yourself, 'is this made via leather or cloth?'
Thanks
In one tank gearset for example there might be a blacksmith sword, an armourer shield and chest, leatherworker gloves and boots, weaver trousers, and goldsmith or carpenter accessories.
With alchemist ingredients used as materials in all those recipes too.
I finally completed my first ShB relic, but i got a few questions.
- Is it me, or do the replica weapons look... duller... than the real weapons?
- If so, is it possible for me to put the real weapons into my glamour dresser?
The replicas are 100% identical
Matte Replica has no effects on it
Replica weapons look the exact same
And no
Oh... must be my imagination then...
What do u guys do with the real relics when you're done with them and they're outdated
Actually, you can put some in the dresser
toss them away?
store 'em
I put Honeshirazu inside because I didn't wanna do the next step after
i see
I store em away, doesn't really matter but I don't feel right tossing away something I worked for
100% personal thing though, there's no logical reason to keep them unless you anticipate it may be used for future expansion stuff
Keep them around for Ultimates and stuff until next relic with adjustable stats come out, no?
Do U guys think I should focus on ninja or samurai?
Up to you
Dang it I was hoping u didn’t say that 😂😂
If it was up to me
What content are you trying to do?
More Casual or more raid?
doesn't really matter either way, the classes do both different things that are valuable in any raid setting
Samurai currently has a strict loop which won't be a strict loop in Endwalker
I'd personally pick NIN if you 're wanting to pick up an easier class atm
I feel like SAM is more fun Casually
And when your 24 man raid gets 5 NIN... it gets painful
Just stagger TA, 4head

Well 3 of those ninjas are already doing 0 gcd tricks anyway
Guys if im a lvl 1 character and buy the DRK job skip, will i get the class automatically or do i need to unlock DRK first
are the graphics usually this choppy in the distance?
job skips don't care if you have the job unlocked, all that matters is you own the correct expansion
You get it automatically
Not if you disable the low poly model for faraway objects
Nice, thanks guys
Free trial user here, if I were to buy barding for my chocobo, could I use it and if so, how
Nevermind, got it
what can i turn in for some cheap and fast gc seals?
If you have expert delivery, undersize a level 60 or higher dungeon and open all the chests
Then turn in all the gear for seals
If you have a bunch of poetics that are burning a hole in your pocket, you could also buy a bunch of accessories for turn in as well
any mb stuff?
thats the problem lol
no poetics
need gc seals for pneumite for relic
i got all crafters/gatherers max

Then I'd do the undersize dungeon option
Hi, so I have a ps5 and ps4. I use the same PSN account on both and I purchased FFXIV and shadowbringers on that account. It's tied to my square-Enix account.
My partner would like to play with me now. They have their own PSN account.
My question is: if I'm on one console and they are on the other, what all do they need to play with me?
Do they just need another square Enix account of their own (subscription and all that, etc) and we can use the same "game" so to speak?
Or will they have to also purchase the game and expansions all over again also?
If you wanted to play together, you'd need to buy another copy of the game for their psn account
Hey, maybe I'm a bit dumb here
I'm a lvl 80 smn, trying to set up new hotbar since computer changed, this is all i can see
equip your job stone?
Uh yeah hes right actually
💡
no brain moment
/pet
best way to level as a DPS 51-60?
HoH worked fairly well
!faq altlvlguide
Potd and beast tribe quests i hear
Thank you. So by that logic, they would be able to download the free trial version of the game on PSN then, and the fact that I have purchased the game on my PSN wont conflict despite use using the same console?
Hey so i got my activation code for endwalker pre order, where do i put this?
Mogstation
at what level does monk become not a pain and fun to play
Im level 65 and im absolutly hating this stupid job
To farm the aether density, do I have to equip the anima weapon to do activities such as FATEs?
its not the enter item code button. its enter pre-order bonus code
yes
oh ok lemme try
ah damn, thanks
where did you pre-order from
Square enix store
I made sure i put the same email
as my account
and i gave my username also
and you're absolutely certain you're copying the pre-order code correctly?
yes i typed it out as it was shown
Same region?
Regarding palace of the dead drop rate for memories should I keep replaying 51-60 or keep going up?
You have the starter/complete yeah?
erm ye
I think this is region issue happened to me once in stormblood
what region did you buy from and what region is your account
My account NA but i bought from EU because My character in EU server
and also did you buy the starter edition from SE store?
Idk what region, Im EU tho
Im sure it was EU cuz it said something about merge cart or something
the currently it should was £ also
ye my square enix account is linked to the account i bought it for
but idk why it says invalid
Wt if no one comes for dungeon
Anyone know what I can do?
is there a target of target macro to swap targets
No I just bought endwalker
oh endwalker starter yes
mb
Sorry for late reply. As long as you use two separate PSN accounts since it's one SE account per PSN, I imagine there wouldn't be any conflicts with that
Whats a good skill speed for paladin?
Gather and Craft Scripts are only released once per expansion right?
I mean, a new one gets released every expansion
So White is new in ShB, Yellow was new in StB
Compared so, Tomestone is released 3 times every expansion
Following the 3 tiers of Raids
That make it a total of 4 new types of tomes every expansion?
There's always the max level scrip and the old scrip, and poetics, unlimited max tomestone and weekly limited
!faq pldbis
2.43 and 2.41 are suggested for optimization except with latency or other consistency issues causing unreliable mechanic/phase timings. Listed speeds assume food is active.

2.43 - Smoked Chicken

2.41 - Chicken Fettuccine

2.40 - Chicken Fettuccine
Deprecated 5.4 Savage BiS sets if Blade's weapon (535) is not available:

4 different BiS for 0.01s difference .-.
So yeah x.0 introduces a new scrip and shifts the existing scrips to "non maximum" (currently yellow), new unlimited tomestone at launch, a weekly limited on raid release, while shifting all existing tomestone to poetics
And scrips don't get replaced got an expansion, new limited tomestone are introduced with every 8 man raid patch (the existing limited tomestone then becomes unlimited)
/tt, or <tt> as a modifier on a line
Got it, thanks Ropter
Is it possible to blacklist someone while in a duty
This fuck is just spamming se.1 lines
Reporting is a pain in the ass with going on their official report site
dont know why RMT is the only quick-report in the game
same honestly
Though if I were a betting man they want to reduce report volume because it reduces effort
how can lvl up new jobs fast?

When farming tomestones, how do i death the 3rd orb more efficiently?
Like... is there a way to J-kick or sardine from the ramp?
Ah...
Will give it a shot
Hmm, J-kick doesn't work, i get stuck at the wall
But Sardine does, thanks
When was ||Ehll Tou|| added as a Custom Dilivery?
I usually target it before rounding the corner, swiftcast, jkick after turning the corner, level 5 death
what time is gilg usually accepting new players
Both ||Ehll Tou|| and ||Count Charlemend de Durendaire|| are unlocked after you complete HW, but they are recently added right?
like 4 am ?
Was refering to the 3rd orb though?
Oh... nvm
What is the macro for picking a gear set?
1st is 5.3; 2nd is 5.5
cause i cant spell them
I see
Sorry coming back from an FF14 hiatus, is endwalker pushed back?
No biggie, more time to focus on school and save the sub money lol
thank you for the info
hey, so I was downloading the game off of that third party launcher, it finished in 2 hours but now it's stuck on 0GB left to download, patching 15/101 for the last hour. my friend is using the normal launcher and his didn't have to do anything like that, after his 40 gb he was done
should I restart it or something?
Where do I find a good FC I can never find one
i got byakko katana, how do you make it glow?
