You can change hairstyle and facepaint at an aesthetician
It's used to change your gender and race.
Rumors of a dangerous madman about town have S'dhodjbi ill at ease.

Can I change the name as well?
Oh alright
How far are you in the story?
you should already have one in your inventory, unless you already used it
I see
Where exactly can I find this fantasia thingy?
You should get a free potion at level 50 MSQ
Oh alright thanks
Enfeeblements
but in pt list it count as buff right?
Do you have to be on the same world to get into a party, for example can someone on Behemoth be in a party with someone on Hyperion?
thats why im comnfused
debuffs show in pf list so uh
No, though you’ll either need to be on each other’s friends list, visit each other physically with world visit, or use party finder
its just this debuff e12s i need to turn on,. im looking to do it without turning on. so enfeeblements?
What's a great way to level 60-70 other than MSQ?
you should uh
Keep the party list on
@grim scaffoldHOH
What if I haven't gone past lvl 11 in palace of dead lol
then msq
Your party list should always be on
Regardless of role
or dungeon spam.
im actually so easy to distracted by it huhuh @regal pawn
can you move an estate itself within a plot?
nope
I struggle in Palace rn, maybe I'm just not great at Warrior.
im playing blm only
don't go solo lmfao
no their positions on plots are fixed
@grim scaffoldis it your first job? or alt?
did they get rid of the NPC in the Syrcus Trench that takes you to the Ocular? or did he disappear as a result of the story? I don't remember anything that could cause it, I'm halfway through patch 5.3 
Alt, I have a 70 machinist that I rode msq up to, wanted to try tanking before endwalker
just teleport?
then you should just spam dungeons
@grim scaffoldwhat i did just unlock 50 floors in potd with randos
then hoh is probably fastest aside from dr lvl
Alright I'll give both a shot, thank you both for ur advice!
Tanking dungeons is best exp
HoH and PoTD isn't really worth if your queues are short
For the Phoenix mount, are all the bird trials required to be extreme only or are some of them also normal mode?
You can only get the birds from extreme
Aiight
if i have friends on another data center should i make an alt there or just wait for data center travel
Your choice. Dc regional travel still a ways off

Assuming that 1 month sub is 10 USD
(I'm not in the US so I dunno)
That would be closer to 60
!faq subprice
Do you get elemental xp from enemies 8 levels above you?
ahh okay. are there usual black friday sales or anything like that also? even for like the complete edition ?
Weird question. How good are Blue Mages at tanking?
with tank mimic and all the spells, decent.
Pretty squishy without any cooldowns, tbh
I recommend a regular tank if you’re not going for the Blue Mage log or BLU achievements
They’re also pretty low on damage due to Mighty Guard and whenever they have to use Diamondback
Well yeah, I'm going through the MSQ as a Paladin first, but as soon as I finish Shadowbringers, I'm levelling a Blue Mage because that is like my favorite thing right now.
Despite being a DoM job, could I maybe still find "tanking gear" for Blue Mage, given I wanted to do that occasionally for the meme?
there's a blue BiS doc somewhere
Couldn't find it in the pins on the primal blue server though
BLU mage only uses casting gear, and melding tenacity does nothing
Heck.
The best you can do is max your vitality, eat food, and pray
Yes, that is what I will do. I will pray to Yoshi P to make Tank Blue Mage viable.
it is """ viable""".... in a blue mage context
You will not be doing damage, most of your spells will be dedicated to MP management to maxmise use of defensive spells
It's a lot more like a traditional MMORPG tank
can you farm gold by buying moogle tome mounts and selling them to vendors? or is the msp 120k thing for something else
What weapon does lyon have in bozja
counterpoint: you can enable your fellow BLU mages to deal even more damage
!action libra
Ooh that concerned me because I thought it needed to be on another Blue Mage, but it doesn't look like it?
anyways for the most part though BLUs do not handle mechanics or most content normally anyways
since you're all DPS the best way to survive a mechanic is to usually pop Diamondback
especially if it's a healer/tank mechanic
Is it better to sell coffee biscuit mats or turn it in leves? Is it a huge pay cut (don't have to to craft)
!action Condensed Libra
Afflicts target with Physical Attenuation, Astral Attenuation, or Umbral Attenuation.
Duration: 30s
Physical Attenuation Effect: Increases damage taken from physical attacks by 5%
Astral Attenuation Effect: Increases damage taken from fire-, wind-, and lightning-aspected attacks by 5%
Umbral Attenuation Effect: Increases damage taken from water-, earth-, and ice-aspected attacks by 5%
Only one of these statuses can be applied to a target at a time.
Invented by complete accident whilst a master mechanic attempted to manufacture an automaton that might monitor his lover's suspected illicit activities, and now a staple mechanism of mechanoscribes, Condensed Libra allows for the rapid analysis and amplification of a foe's weaknesses.

@slate arrow ^^
You’d have to compare/check prices to see which one is better.
For a point of comparison, 9 Coffee Biscuits is around 15-18k in Gil when using the Leve
3 Upland Wheat Flour+Coffee Beans+Garden Beet Sugar probably isn’t worth that much.
When there isn't an ovoo up, why is it so important to be fighting in the center in Onsal Hakair Frontline?
i just downloaded the quick launcher the XIV one but every time i ]click on the icon nothing appears and i go to task manager but the program isnt there how do i fix this
Middle node is the hardest to fight for when it’s up, and it puts you closer to most of the node locations as a whole
Okay. There's two people fighting over leadership in my Frontline run about how important it is to be fighting in the center constantly vs. capturing other nodes.
How do we get gunmetal black dye?
Ishgard restoration with skybuilder scrips or marketboard
Capturing other nodes is more important than keeping established in the centre
For sure
But if a node is currently up and being fought over in centre it’s good to keep a small presence there at least while you cap other nodes if they’re freebies
But it’s all highly dependent on context
You can’t win frontlines with just one extreme strategy, you need to balance kills, nodes and area control
My Chocobo just hit level 10, got all the healer skills. Can't gain any more EXP. I assume I can't train it in Healer/Tank/DPS (have to specialize in one or have 5 points in one and 5 in the other, etc)
You need to use Thavnairian onions to level it up past 10
That’ll let it max out all 3 trees
is there a chance to fail HQ if you have 100% HQ but also finish crafting while on poor status?
When I reach 79 for DPS should I just spam the Mt.Gulg dungeon or continue doing bozja
Finishing on poor status does nothing
I see, I must have hit 99% HQ and not noticed
If Gulg has a long queue, then probably bozja
In this game you can only glamour pieces of the same class?
It will since I’ve been leveling by myself
Yes, the glamour has to be something the class could normally equip
@obsidian patio OK, I had one. Now he's 10*.
... Now what?
Fill up the EXP bar again
Oh cool
read the instructions on the quick launcher/XIV launcher page, maybe check their FAQ, otherwise, go to their discord for support, links are also on that page

How big of a range is /yell, exactly?
I haven't found anything on google.
All I can find is Shout is the whole area, yell is some distance But how much is "some distance"?
What are the most rifle looking guns for MCH?
Yell is some distance bigger than say. I’m not aware of anyone testing how many yalms exactly.
My experience is that it’s roughly around player model render distance
Whereas say would be like display name distance
Or probably smaller
Cryptlurker Pistol and the level 80 MCH job weapon are decently close
Gotcha, thanks man
i just bought shb on steam, how long until it registers?
Until you put in the code
off forgot about that
Right click game > manage > cd keys
You'll find the code there
Pop it into moggy woggy station
Back after 1 year pause and I boosted a Paladin because I liked the armor/glam despite having no experience as a tank and now I regret it soo much V_V
Any idea on how to learn the class/tanking without ruining other peoples experience?
youtube, or palace of the dead
Palace of the dead isn’t great for learning jobs
start from floor 1, so you learn the skills gradually
Totally forgot about potd, that sounds really good
yeah, but no one will care
potd from level 1-50 is a cake walk
and naturally unlocks skills as you go
Yeah I remember leveling some classes there, really liked it
woo locked and loaded
does anyone have any advice on how to keep up with the FATEs in ||zadnor||
just a way to learn the skills a bit,and you can tank the bosses, etc
not a perfect way, but can help
slap dummy for an hour to get the rota down
read up on how to tank (long CD mitigations first, feel free to stack Sheltron on top of any of them)
then off you go to duty finder
the zone is just too big I honestly can't keep up and catch the FATEs in time they go down so fast
even with mount speed increase
Thank you and everyone else, gl ingame!
What's a good place to level at level 30 for a Blue Mage?
how do i get more magicite? can i get it in anemos?
The story in Anemos gives you all the free ones
There’s two additional magicite not from the story, but they require rare drops from NMs/FATEs
when do i progress the story? cos i only got the one from when i started eureka
i got my anemos relic and im rank 16
in NG+ can I redo crystal tower or coil? if so, how do I pick up the quests? when I try to speak with NPCs that are outside of the scope of NG+, I get an error saying "not available in new game+"
Yes.
You need to pick the relevant NG+ category to do the quests again
hmm, I see
A new UI interface should show where the next quest is
oh my fucking lord there are so many other stories I can do
krile asked you to go somewhere with her
or look for unusual aethery spots
!faq anemosmap

Check the blue circles on this map for interactables
thank you!!!
In Diadem, should I go for nodes that have mats which I specifically need
or just ram everything I find
Focus stuff I need, whatever sells best on nodes that don’t have what I need
what's the name of the HUD element that shows the target's debuffs?
or the status info of the target
anyone know if ishgard player housing will be on launch day? or at a later date/patch?
6.1
Around 3 months after ew launch
the area will be introduced in 6.0 so people can scout out the plots
but no buying until 6.1
Target Bar, or if you have the UI split up, then Target Info (Status)
good to know, thanks. That gives me time to save up some cash and pray to Thal's balls that I can get a tier 3 house

So there are no DoL/DoH job quests in ShB?
nope, only crystal mean quests
TY
How do I contact a GM about item restoration in this day and age?
I had bought two of the level boost books (one for WHM and one for AST) since I'm never going to play those classes, but after I used the WHM one and logged back in, I made the utterly stupid decision of discarding the gear I got from it to make room for the second set of it (instead of selling it to the DE). I'd like to get the discarded set restored...
question about botany quest: level 60 job quest, do chysahl green nodes only spawn at 9am and 9pm?
nvm, figured it out. Had to look harder for the "contact a GM" search. Curse my half-blind eyes.
should I always be going for gear then accessories in ilvl

is there an npc who sells food in mor dhona?
Nope.
wack
Is there a way to see what song is currently playing while you are gaming in different areas and dungeons
ask here 😁 , just tell us where did you hear the ost
It's a Piano in Coerthas but I'm on my Samurai chain
hmm let me guess https://youtu.be/mniL9Dq7464

I do not own the video nor the audio.
...
Yea that's it, I must have been looking at something else, the list I was looking at didn't have all the zone stuff, nice channel
TY
The orchestrion plugin on the quicklauncher has a feature for that
I play on a PS
Do I need to complete something in MSQ for access to western ahm areng?
Well then you can't use it, how am I supposed to know that
Going to have to keep this YT Channel handy tho
Did you need to complete something in msq to access the southern half of the peaks?
I don't know
OK, thank you
Does the machinist’s robot summon thing tank aggro for you in world content?
no
Aw man that woulda been really neat
wouldn't really be a point to it since it appears for like 20 seconds at most
Been that way since arr
I think
Turrets had hp in hw
Not sure if they could tank for themselves tho
They functioned differently
Just a stationary thing you threw down
An Aoe one and single target
So does BA drop anything that you can sell for a good sum of money?
Yes
The items to make kirin osode
Ah
Most shit that drops in ba can sell for good money
Shin zantetsuken, that gogforesaken ff11 boss minion
Etc etc
Like skoll's claw good or speed belt good
It's only 13 mil on primal
Those items are high price cause it's rare
Ba items are more commom
But still expensive
A mill or so give or take
Primal is packed to the gils

is there a fast way to check if there are any apartment openings in a housing district
Skolls claw is 4 mil
that’s literally 3 times more expensive
uh so im having a weird issue and im not sure how to solve it. i keep getting an error message saying that my password or iD is wrong on the launcher, despite it being correct and im still able to logon to my sqenix account in a browser
ive changed password multiple times
im stuck
There's no way there's only six Blue Mage weapons in the whole game.
Uhhhh
narrator: but yes
Pretty sure there's only 6
how long do the square enix black friday sales usually last
And the higher level ones don't even have stats.
There's the first level 1 wand, Azulmagia, Spirit of the Whalaquee, the level 60 one, predatice and the flawless gogo one
ye, that’s kinda mentioned in the blu intro
blu weapons dont have stats
focus on armor and accessories, etc
Does anyone know which haircut this character has? https://ffxiv.eorzeacollection.com/glamour/15717/chic-infantry-guardian. I really like it, but I can't find it any where
if it's unique, it's probably hyur exclusive 😹
they have the most hair selection
and not a lot of people play them
I'm also playing a hyur, but I can find nothing even close to it
I am very new to housing in its entirety, and am trying to theme my apartment after Amaurot. Are there any indoor items anyone could suggest that would work for this? Any suggestions on anything housing are welcome as well.
Oh wtf why was that option not in the hairstylist. Ill have to double check
May be an unlockable
that's the default hairstyle
Oh, just saw you mention it was a default, disregard what I said
so you can get them from the beginning
tbh, housing glamour is very extensive, far more then just outfit, so I guess you can dim the light and add some blueish special effect
let me see if I still have that screenshot that I found when I purchased my first apartment
It was also amaurot theme, cause I also just finished MSQ that time
I'm noticing that. I avoided messing with it because I wanted an actual house, but I figured I should get some practice in at the very least. Not to mention I didn't wanna hurt my wallet, but I can always reuse things when I can eventually find an open plot.
Oh yes if you happen to have a screenshot to give me ideas, that'd be excellent
I'm not a very creative person, but just messing with glamour has become very fun for me, and opened up a hobby I never thought I'd have
can't find it 👀
I'm a gladiator and the combo chain is fast blade,riot blade,rage of halone but rage of halone option doesn't pop up after I use riot blade is it because of the weapon I'm using or?
All good, very much appreciate you looking and the suggestions!
!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.
@hearty skiff take a screenshot of this, and finish the (!) when it popped
do you actually have the skill on your hotbar
Like Vee said, that ! is your class quest. if you dont do these, you'll sometimes not have access to skills learned via them
I have the skill on my hotbar
have you learned it
Yes
Which (if any) materia is worth anything these days? What's the cut off for the materia I can just trash?
when I say that, I mean did the "skill learned" prompt thing pop up and say you could use it
All of them basically
If you're in an instance that level syncs you to a level below when you should have learned it, that will also stop you from using it.
^
I'm level 27
ah yeah, then you probably sync'd to sastasha
Crafting and gathering materia will remain useful in Endwalker
Combat materia, not so much
you won't be able to use lv >15 skills then

if you're at the appropriate level, and you have the skill learned, and you're not synced down nothing should be stopping you
Running lower level content can be a pain sometimes, because you get used to having access to all of your moves, and the older content syncs you to have whatever abilities you would've had at the level that content was appropriate.
To be fair, the game doesn't force it on you unless you are massively over leveled
Otherwise, you'd need to choose to do duty roulette to experience down sync
Okay soo...I was using a steel boardsword and when I switched weapons to a more regular blade the move works
that's not how that works
That's just not possible
your weapon doesn't affect what skills you can use
Your weapon has nothing to do with you skills, your weapon simply dictates your class, and adds stats.
Your weapon affects your stat and your class
Does swapping to the previous weapon remove the abililty to use it?
So I was I in a diffrent class when i equipped the broadsword?
you can't have been
you wouldn't have been able to use any GLD skills if you were a different class
Almost guarantee that was the case, didn't think of this
When you say it "didn't pop up" what did you actually mean
Rage of Halone would be greyed out if you couldn't use it - your character would still do the animation, and you can use it outside of a combo, though theres no reason to
Take a screenshot
if it's greyed out you wouldn't be able to use it period
you are sync'd fam
Where were you/what content were you running when this happened?
!action rage of halone
Level sync is not a common concept in most games
So it is possible that you got confused
if you are lv 79 and queued into sastasha, you won't be able to use rage of halone
even if it's lv 26 skill
Satasha is what... Sync to lvl 18?
Your right it was level sync
Also why the fuck does DNC not get its action boosts until 50 and 60 while SAM and RDM get theirs at 20 and 40 like every other job
What the fuck SE
action boosts?
I'm surprised that we don't have a level sync emote here
!trait Maim & Mend
And
it has standard step it doesn't need them
Maim and mend
Tell me why dark knight doesn't get the 2nd hit of it's AOE rotation until LEVEL 72
!trait Maim and Mend
That
also it wasn't designed to be played below 50
idk, DNC is pretty strong even at low level
You know
DNC is one of the strongest classes below 70
That's a good question
Because the other three tanks all get their AoE continuation at 40
Mhm
it's because DRK has flood of shadow
it feels bad but it makes their aoe rather okay even without stalwart
You can make the argument that it fills blood gauge, but gunbreakers aoe also fills it's gauge
What does Stalwart Soul even look like
issue with GNB's is that it doesnt' get the aoe spender so it's not entirely perfect either
idk why it's at 72 for all but whatever
You throw your hand in the air while three beams of darkness hit the ground and spin, creating a blast of darkness on the ground around you
I wish I imagined it and didn't live it
I still get to imagine because my DRK is only at 40 
To be fair though, it does fill blood gauge and mp, which are big for drk
So I've only had to spam one button for ten levels 
Drk was the tank I had the least fun leveling, but I can at least assure you it does pay off. The questline is widely regarded as the best class quest story in the game as well.
only 10 level? that's pretty nice 🤔
Also drk in PvP is 👌
WAR need to spam overpower till lv 40 from 15 😂
Drk PvP is the only pvp ive playrd 🤣
You get a reset on your jump on kill/assist so you can just be a frog
So 34 levels of spamming one button
DRK gets the second part of its AOE combo at Level 72.
Yes
Though, it has Flood of Darkness.
it feels bad but it's fine for actually doing damage
Yeah its super late. Flood helps but considering it costs 1/3 of your mp bar, and your MP regeneration has nothing to do with AOE until...level 72....its not a great solution
agreed
cry as melee 😂 dragoon get theirs at lv 40
It's janky-ass game design.
Is Bloodspiller or Quietus the AoE blood gauge spender
uhhh
NIN gets theirs at 38 so I've felt that pain
!action Quietus
quietus
Got the named mixed up with Delirium
W-we're not budget warriors
W-we can have our inner darkness fight for us!
It just takes 4 seconds of its 22s uptime to spawn
Yeah, it's pretty awful.
It looks cool at least.
DRK is...you play it for the aesthetic. And Blackest night.
Rook does it too when you're not 80 MCH
it's less apparent on phoenix and bahamut but it also happens, pheonix is delayed ever so slightly to where you need to wait a second before it can actually autoattack
necessitating a triple weave in its usual rotaiton to fit this in
TBN is the best mit in the game and it's not even close
It's also hella expensive.
It's the same cost as Flood/Edge of Shadow
And forces you to choose between burning a damage oGCD and not if you don't time it right.
But yes
guess whats getting nerfed in endwalker 🙃
Why am I not surprised
Meanwhile, the rest of the tanks get ALL the shields.
it's not getting nerfed
it’s the same as other 25s ~
Oh wait because TBN is busted
it functions the exact same
Oh I just realized
Warrior gets so many self-shields you have to ask if they're part Scholar.
DRK doesn't have a 25s mit does it
it’s just tied to drk’s dps so it’s … different ig
Because it gets TBN instead
it’s tbn
25% target HP shield is prob what youre thinking of
how long would it take to get carried through coils with an undersized and a few 80s?
this isn't really the channel to discuss this topic especially when it's very controversial
a few minutes average each run
at worst
each turn*
oh thats not bad
yeah it is very easy
Oh I didn't even notice I was in questions channel 
But yeah Coils is a joke if you've got an 80 with you
i mean, 15s is not the real CD of tbn but k, not the channel
To keep in on topic - what did you mean by this? I can't find what I'd looked at a while ago, but if I remember right the %HP had been changed to 20%.
Not trying to fight or anything, just curious if I have misinformation
media tour says it's the exact same at 25%
whether this will change is not confirmed but we know that tentative changes keep it the exact same
it would still be really good at 20%
Hi does anyone know how to kill rank 4 monster in bozjan southern front? I want to farm lost fragment of awaking but the monster hp is so thick to begin and their attack damage is very painful
make a cluster farm party
You need a party
you usually farm in a party
Essenses and actions, and bring a healer
You find a cluster farm party
Fair enough, what I had seen was considered a leak. And it is still extremely good at 20%, on a tank. It's just in those situations where you actually want it to save someone that I would dislike the reduction, but it is most commonly used to proc the free MP spender.
you get bloodsucker as a tank and bring an aetherweaver/profane healer
For the bahamut coil raids is it hard to find duty finder queues?
Normally is better Party Finder for Bahamut
yes
Awaking is normal mobs in zone 2, just kill rank 3 and lower to farm them
Wait tanks that aren't WAR still use Bloodsucker?
All tanks do
even war use bloodsucker
Literally no reason not to
hmm
It's literally Martialist with free life steal
What do I need to get Bloodsucker
I was told Bloodsucker was not optimal, but I'd argue most players aren't playing optimally anyways. Its definitely the fun one.
Castrum
I just entered Zadnor 
the worm in middle zone also quite pain to kill with bloodsucker
Lol what dumbasses said that
Wait Bloodsucker drops from CLL?
Yes
wat
Randoms I ran into the first time I walked into Bozja as a little baby
I need to do more CLL then
Didn't even have an essence to my name
Wait I don't have any tanks never mind
so i bring bloodsucker. what lost skill to pair with farming?
Damage boosting stuff
Different question what should I be looking for/using as WHM? 
Blood rage, banners, fonts, lost slash on war
Damage increasing stuf
If it ain't increasing your dmg it's fucking shit
ya, for posterity i recommend looking at gamerescape's media tour page
not really leaks if we know the plans
tentatively that is
Healers are typically Seraph strike and Chainspell/Font of Magic
I usually stick to Aetherweaver and Seraph Strike
Chainspell for when I want big damage
What do those do? 
profaned only if you have other healers though
Temporarily eliminates cast time for all spells.
Duration: 30s
Additional Effect: Magic Burst
Magic Burst Effect: Increases spell damage by 45% while increasing MP cost
Duration: 30s
Spirit of the Ordained Effect: Raises Magic Burst spell damage increase to 100% and nullifies additional MP cost
Spirit of the Watcher Effect: Lost Chainspell duration is extended to 90s
Can only be executed while in combat.
Be a physical range for 30s
Aether weaver is your damage buff essence, and seraph strike is a cooldown that nerfs your healing for a damage buff
And actually get to weave
then the bozjan wight also need healer to kill that thing?
It's a high rank so yes
Undead are all high ranks
Rank 3 and under are easily soloed
4 and higher aren't
Does it only drop with 3/6 prisoners or do I just have to do it before all six are saved?
At least 3
umm guys so i was hoping to get some help. I wanna do bahamut turn 1 but turns out party finder cannot be used i free trial to recruit. Does someone not mind joining?
You get an additional chest after the second boss based on prisoners saved
It's in the chest that spawns for saving 3
so they can leave once formed if they don't need?
They’re gonna to help you do coils, I thought that was clear
oh right
i thought it could be smthn like how u can form a party for someone and leave so they'd still be in a party with their friends
You NEED that lvl 80, or you ain’t beating coils
is there any database to see what monster has what weakness?
level 80?
oh
dem really?
im 72
They have a debuff on them
oof
Magitek are weak to magic, undead are weak to physical
You just said you were a free trial player
free trial

That's not how free trial works
Maybe he/she read the ilvl by mistake. Or we are dealing with a wizard.
thanks
You guys make keybinds with alt and shift modifier ?
that's not uncommon
ctrl and shift
alt is less preferred for most people since it's a bit more uncomfortable to exactly reach
depends on the person though
I'm sure I didn't finish the zodiac relic weapon quest line, how do I find out where I left off? I can't find the relic weapon either, can I repurchase it?
Ctrl seems a bit awkward for me. But I'm at a point where I need to come up with a good keybind system or I will have terrible muscle memory.
You can’t abandon the ARR relic quest, so if nothing’s there
So it should still be in my journal?
I'm only using shift for 1-5, z-v, q, e, r, t, f, g
Any fishers in chat? Hello.
So Understood that it's different to level FISH from BOT and MIN
What did you do to level your fisherman?
as I understand it people use ocean fishing
Ocean fishing
Is there any way I can get my Chocobo companion to attack a mob before I do? So they can get enmity?
they are bad a tanking
They’re never gonna out aggro you
very bad at tanking
just tank the mob yourself, let them heal you
leves and ocean fishing are your best bet
Noted for Ocean fishing; apparently it only needs me to be level 1
Will give it a try shortly.
how does diadem material works with FSH?
Just make sure your inventory isn’t completely full
if I'm using lv 60 equipment, will I get fish that can be turned into lv 60+ materials to level doh?
Can we craft the gear in free trial???
Yes you can be a crafter, go unlock them
very slightly
most mats for CUL are from BOT
Cul can desynth fish
the vast, vast, VAST, VAST majority of fish from FSH are completely useless
no use for absolutely anything
Hello Caspian
Right, so I got my BOT and MINER already 80
I'm just worried about needing materials from FISH
the only decent thing from fish desynth is water clusters and even then it's probably not faster to farm them than aetherial discobombulation or w/e it's called
you will only 'need' mats from FSH for CUL in like maybe one or two job quests, dunno the actual number
oh
was just wondering what FSH with lv 60 equipments bring, will they bring like BTN/MIN lv 60 doh materials?
So I don't have to level both like I did with BOT and MIN
if you don't enjoy fishing, you can skip it entirely
It's relax time.
I will level up FSH, might as well, BOT and MIN are already 80.
Then on to other crafters, ALCH is already 80.
This I talked about yesterday, costs 1K a piece in the MBs
I farmed it myself and sold it!
Is this the right page? Why is there a discount and how long does it last?
im holding onto the code for the complete experience until i finish up the free trial. do i need to activate the code or can i just keep it?

it’s a 30 day sub and it comes with every expansion except endwalker
I just bought it yesterday
ofc you get to keep the expansions tho
my bad, typo
if your account region is set to Australia/EU & other regions
Have you revealed the code yet? if not you should be able to hold onto it until you decide to reveal it
then you are in the right page yeah
yeah i’m just leaving it not revealed till i use it
Do you know how long this deal lasts?
also try to make an account there at the store instead of buying it with guest account
you can also spend 40 and get endwalker but that doesnt come with a sub and i think you need to buy arr?
if you want to farm something for gold, farm the mats for coffee biscuits and then craft them (CUL). it still works for the next 3 weeks
it's complete edition
right but endwalker comes with most of the complete edition
You can buy preorder Endwalker and it doesn't come with a sub and you do need the base game
And it'll come with both ShB and SB if you don't have them already
then you'll have to wait till it's released if you want complete edition to includ endwalker
i’m not even talking about the complete edition currently
You should be
i just said if you wanna pre order endwalker it’s a decision too
i considered it when buying the complete edition
ends 17th november
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
What about when Endwalker comes out, should we expect another sale deal?
Of course not
yeah no shb is gonna get pulled from stores too once endwalker launches i think and i doubt they’ll give big sales to the complete experience
endwalker will probably not on sale till like a year after its out
especially if endwalker gets added to the complete experience
I'm really confused now, if I want to go from Trial to having everything, what's the cheapest path? I don't understand starter complete etc.
complete experience is the best deal rn
!faq buy
I'm OCE actually lol (and might change server when it arrives), I guess I'll follow my current server (JP)?
yeah, if you are OCE, just buy the EU it's quite confusing to follow the Kupo
What region is your mogstation, use that
check your account region however, just to make sure
What's mogstation, oh boy, I only know my DC/Server
your DC is irrelevant for this sort of thing
!faq mogstation
mog station is just the physical purchase stuff right?
No
includes any account management + purchasing stuff
like character rename, transfer etc
Buying subs
how much does a character rename cost?
$10
also is all of the possible hair available from the start of the free trial or do the other expansions have different hair styles to put on your character
well yeah ofc..
the more expansion you have, the more things you'll unlock
free trials are limited to heavensward expansion
and full version would have the convenience to just buy the missing hairstyle with gil
right, i just didnt know if hair styles were also a part that got updated much/was locked behind expansions
have access to more race, etc
There are more Cosmetics in later expansions, crazy I know
so once i activate the full experience, i’ll have way more options for customizing? i kept my fantasia
https://ffxivcollect.com/hairstyles sort by patch, 2.x is ARR, 3.x is HW, 4.x and 5.x are not on free trial
Thanks
If you just want to change hair, use the aesthetician
there's not a lot of unlockable hairstyles
Yeah i didn’t even know you could unlock hairstyles 💀
i just thought they were all available from the start
Hey quick question from friend who hasn't started FFXIV:
If he buys Shadowbringer, can he make a Viera as his first character?
Yes
but from a monetary standpoint I can't recommend buying shadowbringers or even the base game off the bat unless they know they'll stick with it
whats the best looking dye for ironworks gear?
that's subjective
eh, 15 euro rn plus the free 30 days playtime isnt too much of an investment
I can't recommend it at all with Endwalker coming in about three weeks
If you buy complete edition now you'll have to drop another $40 when EW goes live to go past ShB
Important to note: as Viera your hat choices are limited because of the ears, pretty much all hats will be invisible. I bought the game because I really wanted to be Viera, ended up using the free Fantasia to switch races.
yes and complete rn is 16 euro cus its a massive sale
you get one free Fantasia at the end of the A Realm Reborn campaign, and you can save it to change into viera later when you purchase the expansions
Viera have no alternate hair choices...yet
well I guess if you can start Viera/Hroth from the beginning, you kinda like save a fantasia that you get from the end of ARR 😁
Imagine using your free fantasia
couldnt be me
imagine switching from viera
I WILL NEED IT LATER
I still have both my free fantasia from completing 2.0 and the free ticket from unlocking the Aesthetician
My lizzer's look hasn't changed since I made her
i have my free one for the viera transition
I loved being Viera but I needed the hats 
I used my free to change and then paid to change back
just wait till they implement both sexes male and female
This was me too
and you can see they will start implementing hats and hairstyle, etc
I liked viera but hats were too important to most of my glamours
just mod the hats 
Imagine wearing hats
Isn't male bun gonna be better hats
I usually have both my headgear and weapon hidden
they'll prolly get some hats. plus some of the hairstyles
fem viera will get the new system as well
but what if you're a swashbuckling rogue
question about LB, will it ALWAYS disappear after a boss fight
it disappears on pull of a boss

ok ty
That's why in Prae you use either a ranged or caster LB2 to pull Nero
Because it disappears as soon as he aggros
tru tru
wait so does Alisaie cheat the system? she lbs immediately after i pull
making sure cause been scared to use it during alliance raids
but im going to use it as dps now
unless otherwise
she can look after herself you know
Alisaie has a problem in that she LB1s as soon as she's able to
You can't stack your LB with Alisaie in your party 
no i meant
i play tank, i pull the boss, she lbs the moment i do that when the lb is supposed to disappear
dungeon bosses dont make LB disappear
Oh just raid ones?
oh really?
Dungeon bosses don't make LB disappear
Looks at Praetorium
well prae/castrum is a dungeon 😂
raid and msq dungeons, so i guess it's when 8man?
I guess..
somebody needs to wipe on 4man ifrit and tell us if repulling it resets LB
Are there savage for The Binding Coil of Bahamut?
Sorry to clarify on Ocean Fishing; I can just sit there til I"m 80?
binding coils is savage difficulty
What about Diadem?
When you complete the Final Coils and go talk to the Wandering Minstrel you unlock Second Coil (Savage)
for ocean fishing, you need to wait for expedition
you can't just stay there till 80
But the base Coils themselves are also technically Savage difficulty
Which is why they don't appear in any roulettes
BUT I can still level fish in Diadem, yes?
So there is no normal bahamut
hmm so 8man is when lb disappears on boss pul
it is 'normal' but it's as difficult as savage when synced
if you are also leveling your doh in diadem, would recommend getting fsh level'd at diadem
But there is a sava ge The Second Coil of Bahamut right?
but if you want fast lv 80 fsh, you can just turn in leves
yes
I still have allowances, I guess.
savage coils synced is teeth pullingly difficult
Yeah, plenty.
Why only second coil? Its weird.
the naming of raids wasn't normalized the way it is now
just ARR things
ARR jank
You have base Coils which is technically Savage difficulty, actual Savage Coils and then later you can unlock Unending Coils of Bahamut which is the Ultimate version
things were inconsistent back then
Thanks
No
let's not use that word, but yeah
oh
o4s o8s and e4s

Bahamut T2 with BLU, is fun
People get angerreeyyy when the whole things lasts 32 secs AND NOT 30secs
UCOB and UWU are stormblood, so they're unlocked from omega
Is O4S UCoB or UWU
cob
corn cob
So O8S is UWU
yes
ye
still waiting for Cape Westwind Ultimate
I mean they did say they were gonna rebalance it
What rumor
it's confirmed
That’s what they told us
it's called Dragonsong War Ultimate
next ultimate is dragonsong war
Wait so does that mean after the Dragonsong War Ultimate coming in 6.1 we should get one for the Omega raids? 
possibly
In time
possibly, we don't know if they'll change things up
the pattern would indicate the omega raid ultimate would be next though
warring triads ult could be a possibility too
we're getting this one late as it is because of covid
That would be gross
they could pull a trial series ultimate out of left field yeah
since its a trial series that could be considered, as its additional content
that didn't exist prior in ARR
4 lords ultimate
Cape Westwind + Castrum Meridianum ultimate
Cape Westwind Unreal you mean
alrighty move that to discussion
why do some fates give bonus exp?
does anyone know for sure if we'll be able to make male viera if we only have shadowbringers and not endwalker??
viera is a shadowbringers race
they just do
to add interest
that's it
gotta question, how do people go past the storage limit to be unable to relocate? the storage limit is at 20 anyway, so it isn't physically possible to go past the limit for outside items?
okay, didnt know if there was anything special about it
i know! ive just seen news about the males coming in endwalker, and i wasnt sure if the new races genders would be locked in endwalker or not
it gave a fat chunk tho ngl
if you already have stuff in storage
then have the stuff in your yard crammed into storage on top of that
well my yard is full and my storage is full but I can still re-locate
Storage is temporarily doubled
answer is that they'll most likely lumped into shadowbringers female viera, but you need to buy endwalker to access both anyway if you didn't already have the game
If everything still doesn't fit after the doubling you can't relocate
You basically need full storage + every item placed
right but the storage doesn't go past 20 anyway, so how is it even possible to make it impossible to re-locate
damn.. thank u for answering tho!
Im trying to change the email associated with my ffxiv account but im not receiving the email needed to switch it. How long does it usually take ? Ive waited 2 days now
you onlt need to buy 1 of the zadnor/bsf riding map right?
actually it just lets you keep past the capacity, i accidentally relocated and had like 600 out of 250 items until i cleaned it all out
there no stack?
it just overcaps but prevents you from adding more
oh wat
Relocating sets the storage limit to 400 inside/40 outside no matter the plot size.
correct
For larger house sizes this means that storage can get full.
Also if you were moving from a larger size to a smaller size your storage could be too full.
well reason why im asking this is because im going to be trying to get an fc house
and ill get really tired and i don't want to accidentally relo
so iw ant to make it impossible for a relo to happen
but i can't seem to be able to store more than 20 outside
there is compensation for if you have too much stuff when you relo so the answer is no
clicking simulator is a pain

Is there a way to add an entry level sub to your acc when you still have free time left?
is the ishgard housing going to be priced the same as previous housing and with the same method for buying
No and no they're introducing some kind of lottery system for housing last I heard
the pricing will be the same afaik
but the lottery system will make it so you have to commit the money up front when you enter
And you get refunded if you lose the lottery
thats super interesting i didn't know about a lottery system
will be even more worth trying a pull if it won't require 40 hours of clicking LOL
I'm having some UI problems. I downloaded FR4nSSON's config, i dont like his keybind setup so im changing it. But each time i switch classes the keybinds change, and they are gone when switching back to the class i edited. Is there a specific setting that does this? trying to figure this out before i try setting it up again
Is there anyway to revisit the area in Cid's Memory during the Bozja questline currently?
Why couldn't I call Tsumo?
Either you had no yaku in your hand or you were in furiten
there is no way to have different keybinds per gearset
so this is probably something wrong wit the keybinds you downloaded
make sure the files arent set to read-only
Ocean Level Fishing happens every 2 hours?Earth time.
How many tomestomes of poetics does Prae/Castrum give you each in MSQ roulette WITHOUT the daily bonus?
Caspian?
Players will be matched together to form a full party when participating solo or with a party of fewer than eight members.
The ship will depart even if there are fewer than 24 crew members.```
Does menphina earring last forever?
200
until level 80
until level 80
Oh sorry, time wise
you keep the item forever
it's a piece of gear
it doesn't disappear or anything
Ok cool I was just too used to Maplestory where nothing lasts forever, cool
you can toss all your pre-80 combat earrings after you get menphina
What date is End Walker Early Access from pre-order?
pins
what's the bot command for savage loot?
oh sorry actually my bigger question is, will I get Stormbringer and/or level cap raised from 60 if I pre-order, on the early access date, or do i have to wait until release date
3rd dec early access
!faq savage
^ 3rd one
ty
You get access to EW early meaning...
you will get the expansions if you preorder when early access arrives
any expansion always includes all previous ones
yeah I'm just in a pickle, let me explain, I'm level49 on the free trial, I know I want to buy the whole game
But not sure if I want to pre-order and try to milk the free trial more before I pay
Because if I buy complete edition now (although it is on discount), I'll be double-paying for SB and SHB which I'm not sure if I'll even get up to by EW release or EA
I guess the question becomes "will free trial restriction hurt me badly within the next 18 days" such as capping my level/content, because if not, I should just pre-order
I basically reached the end of 5.0 in a month
complete edition on discount is a good deal even when considering endwalker
And that was with distractions
there will be no complete edition discount when endwalker releases for a few months at least
Do we know what the complete edition EW price will be?
$60
should be the same, but without the discount
Sorry whats end of 5.0 is that end of HW SB or SHB?
60 USD?
shb
Unless I did the math wrong, considering the current discount
Yeah it costs more, but you can actually play the expansions before December
if u pre-order now u get the exp ring. if that is the extra money worth it for u, thats up to u
If EW Complete is $60USD, then it's only $5 to $6 less than Discounted Complete now + EW Pre-order, yeah?
Confirming because I'm AUD and a few store pages are in different currencies
€50 to €56 for EU
complete discount + ew preorder is a good deal if you want the earring
I think I'm gonna do it, I got to level49 in like 5 days so...
At that pace I would get content capped by the trial
character levels don't mean much for progress, story progress does
everything is gated by MSQ
Yeah I was confused by this, I guess I'll find out soon but, the expansion vs level caps interest me
Are you just straight up stuck between level 50-60 for heavensward for example? is exp just super slow? do you get stuck at a certain level like 50/60/70 for a while?
Yeah unless you’ve beat Heavensward, I wouldn’t buy yet
what's your current MSQ?
you get 'stuck' at 50/60/70 content because it was patch content
so people did it at back-then max level
Expansion unlock level cap, you still gain exp pass 50 even when you are in ARR
ah I see, so you could technically be like level70 and still in Heavensward?
yes
Whats the fastest way to farm tomestones of poetics aside from duty roulettes?
There's a person in my FC in that exact situation actually
You'll still get exp from the quests, but once your they're level 60 the amount will be tiny
70 PLD but still in HW
I'm level49, Operation Archon, I did mainly MSQ for levelling
CT raids or Aetherochemical Research Facility
You haven’t even beat ARR
Damn it
hunt trains, probably
I'm doing Aether right now
Also you won't be able to access content to even use your level 60+ skills until you're in stormblood
or trains yeah
Yeah just hold off
15 mins for 150 tomes isn't bad but.. Fml, wish there was an even faster way
you're here
Hey a f2p sprout here Iv hit a small snag in story and was wondering if redoing dungeons was actually a decent way to level up considering my level it’s a decent bit above the dungeon levels
From "Operation Archon", are you saying beating ARR and Heavensward within next 18 days is unlikely?
what's the snag
Is it the 46 to 49 jump at Operation Archon?
You totally can
Just an enemy i have to kill That i cant out tank so it kills me
I just wouldn’t waste my free days like that
Sakaguchi got to current msq in like a month
Is it a lizard thing
Ofc you can
That you have to throw an item on to weaken it
And kill it and take it back to the people at Camp Dragonhead
I wouldn't pick to buy now if I could pick but I heard the complete edition discount is disappearing in two days 😢
So they can make mudpuppy steak
You know that makes sense i forgot about the key item

Thanks lmao i just loss a quick braincell
it is, but honestly if you’re enjoying the game and feel like you’re gonna be hooked for the long run i’d say just buy endwalker , even if you finish heavensward early it’ll only be a few days wait and you have plenty to do
