you can also grind bozja boxes. those have a ton of great loot in them
and thats why you can buy it on the cash shop for 75 cents
im free trial lf BiS so between Deternm sks and sks direct crit which one do i go
crit and det
Item level
If you're free trial just buy the 270 shire gear and stick with thay
What job?
It's basically impossible to get anything better
monk
crit/direct hit melds. if possible
Just use Shire
For dps, generally the meld priority is critical hit > direct hit > determination > skill/spell speed
for healers, it's critical hit > determination = direct hit = spell speed > piety
for tanks, it's critical hit > direct hit = skill speed > determination > tenacity
Crit > all expect for black mage technically
Farming for gc seals, but the levelling roulette displays (tank in need) instead of my class, how often do it resets?
it's dynamic
it changes based on what is in need. if you are dps, you will almost never be adventurer in need
every couple minutes, but adventurer in need is like 70% of the time tank, 25% healer, 5% dps
Okie
it greatly depends on the roulette
Doing it as the class in need isn't that much more reward than just doing the roulette
anyone know why its showing an X even though they are both for whm
Im a healer, if i done tank in need class for roulette is it still efficient compare to fates?
yes
What level is the robe?
Ok
51
Thx for the information
im lvl 56
iirc the in need bonus is like 10% or so
And is your current robe 51+?

no its lvl 50
Your current items have to be on level or higher compared to the glamour item you're trrying to put on
ah that's the issue
what are you farming seals for?
Blm still has a crit bus
i see, thanks
Crit and SPS are basically the same damage
SPS is more consistent
Crit has more variance but can go higher
technically not best in slot because the average damage is lower but yeah it has potential to be better
both builds viable
The avrg is margin of error territory
It's honestly preference as well
Yeah
I hate fast sps
2.2 gcd
Guys am I just stupid or can anyone explain to me why it is impossible to find bis gear for retainer via google? This game has been out for a decade yet noone has ever bothered to figure out the minimum gear required to get the maximum rewards from retainers? I now know its Ilvl 425/8ish depending on source so which set would be best and cheapest to achieve that?
I also like having 1 gcd filler phases more often
which can be useful if you need to move a lot but then again you have scathe for movement so
facet gear
have higher than 425 gear, thats bis
you just need ilvl
Literally anything above 428
it's a free off gcd that you can weave while moving
substats mean nothing
Yes so Exarchic gear would be 400-800k depending on server
random dungeon crap from Matoya or Pagl'than
Or just run an eden raid for it a bunch of times
yes but you can just buy facet gear off the mb as well
I assume theres a bunch of cheaper items for it to get just the correct ilvl
facet gear
like I said
job gear is 430
ok ty

Well one set is cheapest, overpaying is not something im interested in tbh, as a new player catching up I need my gil :3
You can also greed every related piece you have off of expert or 80 roulette
literally free
ah right
Eden pieces work too
just spam the first tier of eden normal then, easy il440 gear
but yeah the facet will be fine, like to keep it simple
Also, the AF set for left side
for gatherers, you can just farm scrips
Facet is the fastest solution
and homogenous amongst retainers
Current Average Price: 80522
Historical Average Price: 65241
Average NQ: 0
Historical Average NQ: 0

yeahhhhh exarchic should not be costing you 800k
What job has the coolest fire effects
blu or blm
Gotcha, thanks man
Well when I hit 80 on my BLM before I knew about universalis 800k is about what I paid for the entire set
blu not a real job tho
what's the memory drop rate from HW and SB ARs?
oof if I could hop to eu datacenters from NA I'd craft the stuff for ya
ARs? 100% I think.
Well I have my crafters nearing 80 now but thanks 😄 anyways this was a few weeks ago so maybe prices has gone down in the meantime, considering endwalker is soon upon us
guaranteed
But for the rest of my jobs ill stick to the poetics gear for now haha
and the fates are RNG right?
Ideally, you queue for raids and do fates in the meantime
I think they're guaranteed
lol
but it's more than 25% chance you get it
so queue up for raids and do fates
gottem
do you have a blu for fates?
nope
level 1 or just no spells?
dont even where the unlock quest is 😛
...
Lisma
It's literally in the limsa aetheryte plaza
lisma balls
sorry
Is there a specific time to expect the expansion release?
Dec 7th
!faq expansion
who's steve jobs
I mean like hour
!faq expansiontimer
!expansion
Thx
around the weekly reset
all me hehe
What about early acess?
same time worldwide
For ventures, i want to get more retainers and the seals consumption is quite big
God a ton of ppl gonna be awake at 3am
grinding dye or just valuable items
Dye? How does dyes gives me seals
don't you just buy your first two retainers with gil and after that it's just money tho
Yeap
first two dont require any thing to hire
ok but why do you want seals then
Yeah i knew it
because sending them out on ventures requires a lot of tokens for all 10
easiest way to get venture tokens is seals
And if ur gonna dish out that cash u might as well buy the books that instantly get them to 70
Yeah
20 venture coins
so you are sending them out ventures okay
Im only level 30 sadly
uhh
And the leveling process is kind of satisfying too
getting retainer levelup books is a massive waste of time
if you're only lv30 i would strongly recommend not sending them out every single hour and focus on getting higher lvl
as it'll be a lot easier to get seals at max lvl
just level your main job then and give the excess greens u find to the guildguy in exchange for seals
you buy retainers for inventory slots and market slots, not for their ventures
where you can just run lvl 80 dungeons and need/greed everything
massive waste of money*
for a bunch of seals
might want to progress story to unlock gc turn ins for seals then @wind zephyr. its much faster
I buy them for the looks
Isnt that rank 6 grand companies?
Damnnn you read my mind
ye
yeah its some rank in gc. level 50 stuff gives like 600 seals per.
its sergeant second class
How does story progress ties to it?
its not specifically tied to story progress
Owh i see
its the fact that higher dungeon gear turns in for a lot more seals
to level your main so that you can get high level items to trade in for lots of seals
Owhh so higher level for more turn ins
whereas the gear from say brayflox is 196
yeah are you just grinding leveling roulette for ventures?
yeah the higher items give more than 1k seals each time
Yeah currently i am
opposed to 30ish from the low lvl stuff
being max lvl will make getting seals significantly easier
do not 'grind' levelling roulette
can even solo a few 60 dungeons at that point if you don't wanna do lv80 dungeons
ooh yeah might want to level up a bit for expert turins
for seals
it doesnt give you any significant bonuses after the first daily completion
just queue to the highest unlocked dungeon manually
after the daily
Owhh i didnt know that
Thanks for that info
after the daily reward if you happen to get sastasha you'll get exp as if you queued up and did sastasha
What u can do is just spam the highest dungeon to you available that gives good exp as well
yes and higher level levelling roulette gives more seals
Only the queue times might get to you as a dps
basically if you want to get lots of ventures easily, raise your level to like 50 or so first tbh
Later on u buy the venture coins by the 100s easy peasy
I really wanna progress my story quick
But im progressing with my friend and sometimes theyre busy
So when they are busy i just do the farming stuff
do crafting/gathering jobs in the meantime I think that will be best bang for your buck
I mean you can always go back and do dungeons with them
And do story with them later
Oh yeah that was a good idea
I really like fishing
yeah ocean fishing is the way to go
Yeah ocean fishing is super fun
Here let me link u a guide to crafting i use
you don't even have to leave limsa to unlock a level 80 job
Credit to FFXIVGillionare for the guide, but they are a website that provides RMT which I do NOT support, RMT is a way to get your account permanently banned from the game, so I’ve copy-pasted the guide here and removed mention of RMT (so sorry if it’s a bit janky) . The macros in this guide are...
the first 20ish levels u dont even have to leave town u can buy all items from the vendors for supercheap
Thanks man
Appreciate it
how does ffxiv gillionaire even get away with being an rmt site
No problem
this discord was a great help to me when I started out and still is
I dont think you're ever done feeling clueless sometimes in this game
Yeah this discord is super helpful
Altho im just starting im already getting tons of help
Unless you've cleared every single piece of content in the game there will always be something new to learn
Is there something that can revive me when I get KO and no one is around?
Not really no
Just return
I think fur daddy removed the rmt stuff from it, i dont know the ffx1vgillionaire guy but got this guide off a youtube video, been helpful so far
Thank you
you can ask for a revive in shout chat.
Oh I’ll try that
wont always work but some people might be nice enough
MEEDIIIIICCCC!!!
i revive any sprouts i see
True
Lol will try that

I would recommend including a <pos> tag when you shout for a res, though. Makes it easier for people to find you.
Hello ! I'm really sorry for this question, but I'm trying to be a bard. I'm an archer lvl 30 and have already done the quests Sylph Management and the one that got away, but Luciane is not giving me the option to take the quest chain to be a bard. Can someone help me with this? I'm using the free trial version of the game too
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
!buy
!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.
What's the buy command guide?
@outer hound if you have anything at 2 that's probably what's needed
Go to #kupo-bot-spam and faq buy
Also don't forget to actually equip your soul crystal to become a bard. maybe u have done the quest already to get it but havent done that idk.
other than the xp earring, do we get anything extra for pre ordering EW?
early access
Q: what does the glow on my GC squadron members chilling in my room mean?
Minion
It's just their gear probably
When they reach the higher levels the default gear they get is one of the glowy ones
What is this all thing on my HP bar and how do I turn it off
The top bit?
ye
That's just saying your targetting settings basically
So, I purchased the Complete Edition on sale from the SE site, now do I uninstall the Free Trial version of FFXIV, and download FFXIV again from the CE link?
I'm...not actually sure there is a way to turn it off? @solid cedar
Not without mods/plugin afaik
You don't need tl uninstall
It'll update
hi im new to this game and im currently choosing for world to play in gaia any recomendation?
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
Then do I open FFXIV launcher, go to "Upgrade to full version" and register it with my activation key?
I'm not sure actually, I did uninstall it and had to wait like 2 days before I could play again cause net is crap
Crystal ERP 👀
!faq worldtype
Standard: This World has an average amount of players. Standard Worlds have no bonuses or long-term restrictions active.
Preferred: This World has a lower than average amount of players. Marked with a star, Preferred Worlds grant new characters a +100% experience boost for every class to level 70 for at least 90 days, 10 Silver Chocobo Feathers to spend on gear at the Calamity Salvager, and a one-time deal of 15 days of free subscription for hitting level 30.
Congested: This World has an overabundance of players. Congested Worlds are completely locked off from new characters and Home World transfers.
New: This World has been recently added to the game and has a low amount of players. Along with the incentives that Preferred Worlds have, New Worlds will also give players who hit level 30 one million Gil once per datacenter. Home World Transfers to New Worlds are free of charge.
Legacy: This World has existed since 1.0. Legacy Worlds have no bonus of their own and can be Standard/Preferred/Congested.
There are no preferred/new worlds rn
i know it sounds ridiculous for asking what server that has more english player in japanese server but im still currious about it
See the faq
.
It says right there
Along with the incentives that Preferred Worlds have, New Worlds will also give players who hit level 30 one million Gil once per datacenter.
TIL
It's tonberry and kujata
ok gotccha thanks for helping
Ok, I figured it out, Now it is time to dive into the FULL world of XIV
Other than pre-ordering Endwalker later kek
Nice 👏
Is it weird to like ruin a bit more than most of summoners kit? A ruin-caster would be kinda cool tbh... I wonder if there's any job like it
have you seen the endwalker changes to summoner you might like that more
as for ruin casting do you mean like how ruin can give you further ruin and you can insta that
then why not try red mage which is basically that concept except all the time
Is it a bad idea to start a quest if I’m 2 or 3 levels below it?
You physically can't do that
Oh I had no idea thanks
You need to meet the minimum level to accept and turn in quests
Got it
Tru, I might try that
So I'm working on getting all my classes to 50 in a speedrun to speed level, from WHM, BLM, SUM/SCH, BRD, NIN, and MNK, which should I level next? I am thinking either WHM or SUM/SCH
Flip a coin
Try them out in PotD, or, if you don't care, either one first
If you plan on getting all of them to 50 it doesn't really matter. Save sum/sch for later as a little morale boost because u can level 2 for 1 there. I'd say do what you dislike the most first and yeah potd is great but u need to be 30 to get a true feel for the class because else u dont have all the skills
scholar really needs to get split from summoner lol
just make it start in limsa and move the level 30 quest to level 1
then make up some bullshit for class quest
If i cannot equip a piece of gear with better stats becuase it will replace another armour slot, is there any way to be able to equip it in the future?
I think you're unable to replace it because it's too high level
it says "cannnot equip gear to head"
Oh you mean like that
i can wear it but it replaces another piece of gear
Hello, quick one, I've been queuing for this world of darkness thing for a few days now and still can't find a group to do this and i seemingly can't progress the story without this.
so ill have a helmet but no waist
no those pieces of gear cannot have anything equip to head while they are equipped
Has anyone done the math on if instant 70-80 dungeons (plus earring and 15% exp buff) are faster than bozja for leveling? Trying to figure out what is faster for leveling sage
that will never change
Please, please, tell me there is a way to continue without this instance?
so i should just sell it?
no

@tight widget i can help
rule 0: complaining always works
Oh
hi, can you invite people on differetn worlds to your wedding?
no
sadge, thanks
One fps is messing with us!
dungeons are fast if you're a healer I think. But I recommend bozja tbh so that you can start unlocking relic quests
Dps*
I mean
it all depends on your dps at the end of the day
if they're slow and the tank pulls small bozja is likely better
Tanking should be fine as I'll be tanking for my friend saging
but again with bozja you gotta find a good instance that has a good chunk of Fate/CE farmers and cluster farmers
But dps is valid point. Maybe if i can get 2 reapers i can trust to use aoes properly
for sure if you get 2 good dps and you know what you're doing as tank and the healer is doing well then it should be worth it to do dungeons
I don't have the preorder function on mogstation, does anyone know why this is?
do you already own at least the starter edition?

if i comeback today can i still get all rewards from moogle treasure trove?
yeah depends on how gamer you are
I got the deluxe edition day 1, does it already apply to my account?
ok i'll try to do prioritize the mounts
there's no deluxe edition
Will BLU be upgraded to 80 come ENDW?
no news about that yet I think
so you currently own ARR, HW, SB and ShB, yes?
Well digital collectors edition is what I meant, and ye
i am confused. havent played in 3 months or so. i am now grinding towards my 2nd resistance relic. have they made one step optional? the augmented law order part?
there are 2 steps that's only need to be done 1 time
the DR part however is nerfed
Did you just preorder endwalker collector and buy nothing else?
so DR drops 3 fragment each
Because i did that too and i needa buy a starter for that
can you screenshot this part of your mogstation
And endwalkers are only redeemable after the expansion release
you still need a starter edition regardless
you have already redeemed your preorder code
that's why the button is missing
the actual game code can not be redeemed yet
lol well they sent me another code today so I was very confused
yeah the actual game code hasn't been released yet
yes, keep that code handy
ooo it's already released? 👀
for me they ended up just sending me the same code as the preorder
SE is such a tease 🤣
I mean it was originally supposed to release this friday
they probably just didn't change the schedule on that end
Fair
is there an alternat version of Enhancing Sword and Ritter Shield with particle effects? i could have sworn i had seen one somewhere before but I might be wrong and i have no idea how to check
!iglam ritter shield
do you have the picture of the shield with particle effect on?
cause afaik there isn't
no, it's just something i feel like i had seen before
alright, ty
i need to run the duty that drops these, they are all so pretty
!iglam fae shield
Fae is dyeable which is pog
honestly ritter is beautiful the way it is
i just wasn't sure if i had seen an alt with particles
what is the sale on the complete edition on for right now?
how long do you have time to turn in fashion report
60% off ends in a day on the 17th sometimes since they dont name which timezone
ohh okay. They usually do black friday too right?
Judging will begin each week on Friday at 12:00 a.m. (PST) / 1:00 a.m. (PDT)
till when
weekly reset
ah
was there a medicine that increases desynth exp gain?
yea
tinker's calm
ty
bacon broth
bacon broth is the food
which one is more similiar to SAM and NIN, MNK?
but you can use both at the same time
can't find the similiarity -_-
sam shares mnk gear, but not ninjas
ah right yeah they both use striking, ok ty ty
yeah and ninja uses scouting gear
So I created my account for the free trial and have been waiting over 10 hours with my activation code I should be getting for the account. I've tried this with multiple emails and haven't recieved anything. Anyone got an idea why thats the case? Thanks in advance
and aiming jewelry
nin has their own gear and shares accessories with ranged physical
ye, was wondering about gameplay wise
did you get a message on your SE account? if you didn't, what does mogstation say about your account status
Okay thanks I will check it out
They're all melee dps
It says that my log in credentials are incorrect
yeah, I just saw the job trailer and wanted to level a MNK 😂
All melee dps feel pretty different to me. Monk is all about stances instead of combos. That and speed and all the positionals. You don't do a lot of weaving. Just high speed positional non-static combos. You either love it or hate it.
stances to me are combos with extra steps
How does beast gauge work? I unlocked it in the middle of a dungeon and I couldn't check the information
Use your combo
Different combo hits increase gauge
Expend gauge for big hits
click the (?) on your /actionlist
it's just energy you get from doing combos and you spend it with other attacks
that's the tooltips
!action Maim
Henlo, does region of registration matter too much? I'm going to create a free trial account but I'm in SEA, however I'll be moving to Europe in a month so I'm unsure if it will cause any problems if i wanted to continue on that account.
Combo bonus: 10 beast gauge
If i have a Mac licenses and then buy a PC licenses will my account basically be the same
Yes cause codes are regin locked
You can see your account region in your square Enix info on mogstation
If you assign the license to the same account and service account. Yes.
im level 35 but i cant use the "Inner beast" skill
Yes, if you put the code into the same mogstation
even though i have full gauge
thanks
ahhhh
"why can't I use X skill?" always job quests
I see, should i wait till i get to EU to make the account? not sure how to proceed here
not sure, are you using steam?
No, i'm planning on using the application from the main website
If you're staying there for a long then then probably
Idk if Sea and eu fall under the same region
Think it is
Don't think so
Dont think so
you can region transfer, right?
spoke to a person from SEA, their account region is Americas for some reason
Not your square account
or rather
I think from ID?
no, your SE account's region can't be changed
you COULD transfer datacenters from region to region?
That's completely different
just character, yeah, but account could be difficult
so i hear
character region and account region are not in anyway related for any of their nuances
oh yeah but like
cause it's tied to how you pay for the sub/games
your character being in JP while you have EU account issues doesn’t change anything
your account region has no bearing on which datacenter region you can play on
oh so account region is just the currency you pay in, but you can play in any region on a character

you can have an NA acct and play on JP servers
the account region is entirely just for payment for buying stuff for the game
character region is what you choose for your datacenter and world, and you can do it anywhere
Right so you can make your account on JP and play on EU so you could do that
i mean itll be high ping for now of course
but once u get to europe
should be okay
I think what he concerned about is how he pay for the sub/games
like international payment, currency exchange etc
Im moving to Germany and i'm probably going to get another bank account there so i might just actually wait till i get there to download it
like if it's allowed
Since payment is kinda region locked from what i;ve been reading
oh yeah if you're gonna open another bank account in EU you should probably wait
so that you can pay from that account, which would probably avoid the issue of international payment like vielen mentioned
Yeah, aight thanks anyway for everyones help here
can i put a marker on a party member that is only visible to me ?
No
can focus target I guess
am having a hard time locating the other tank in the group so i know what mechanic he is going for
Heyo everyone,
is there any reason to lvl up your retainers as a warr, white mage or any other class/job?
for what fight?
Or should you just go for gatherers?
if you level the class you play often, it's easier to gear them
you don't intend to max out an ARR class/want to give them job specific gear
Combat retainers get monster drop mats
the retainer i mean
hades ex
Like leather and stuff
for combat retainers specifically toh, ye they bring back mob drops
Would gatherers be better if you go for strict gill?
not necessarily
Tanks should be calling out before even pulling the boss which side they'll do mechanics
since mob drops are usually more tedious to get
yeah you coordinate who gets west and east for each thing
Alrighty thanks!
is it just me
we always had the same tank picking up north and south meteor for phases 2 and 3, then west and east for 4
or does the sch hw weapon (final stage) appear to be missing an animation when you unsheathe it? it just... appears
compared to summoner where the wings grow
Can you become CNJ again as a whm?
Remove the stone
Though, as soon as you're done with the unicorn quest, no other reason to have the stone off

Hehe exactly what I wanted to do (unicorn quest).
!expansion
is this early access or?
yes
ok
otherwise it would say 21
ty ty
whats the difference between diurnal and nocturnal collective unconscious ?
As i see it, its the same xD
Which buffs persists
After you drop it
Diurnal causes the regen to persist
Nocturnal causes the mitigation to persist
You mean when you press it and then cancel it ?
the only thing that drops is the 10% reduced damage
ah i see hmm does it stack with other regen abilities ?
Yes, like every other regen
aspected benefic+ helios+ collective regen
it wasn't a bug
ast has two sects
it was intentionally designed that way
it will most likely change yes with endwalker given there will no longer be 2 sects
Yeah
no
huh, it sounds deeper 
VAs only changed with HW, and in the case of a few others, because of their VA's deaths
After HW actors don't change, except yuiguri
but urianger is not one of them
oki doke thanks
leveling my crafting jobs to 15, what should I do with crappy low level gear I craft?
just sell it or?
if i do duty roulette and i get prae, do i still get 10 tomestone at the end?
Yes
yes
if you get an activity for anything via roulette it sitll just counts as the usual thing
the 100 one right?
mount is second in priority if you don't have them and awnt them
Jacket > Kamuy > Lanner maybe > beast tribe mounts
from hardest to get to easiest
What did you have to do to become GC captain again
Squadrons
I know but what exactly
need to run 5 different dungeons with your squadron
and then complete the flagged mission
gotcha, thanks
thank you
if I bought an item from the SE store, how long should I wait until it appears in the mail cat ball floaty thingy?
instant-24 hours
givee it a bit and log-in logout if you get impatient
Just be patient, it can take up to 24 hours...account mounts take on the longer side
Should I play paladin if I wanna play healer, but also tank
You don't ever use clemency in group content to actually heal
Unless all healers are dead
paladin does not heal
clemency is a button that it may as well not have, for all the use it gets
If anything warrior and gnb heal others more cause their healing is free
Quick question, if I give my wedding invite to a friend, are they are able to give that invite to whoever?
paladin and warrior get group and single target heals next expansion and paladin will get more healing on their kit in general in endwalker so yeah paladin will be kinda similar to be a healer-tank hybrid
yes
- self healing
the amount of healing to others will still be negligible
Even people that could be on my blacklist? 
yes. that's why most people only give out invites at the wedding at the time of the wedding. at least, my fc does, and i think it's not a bad solution
yeah I guess for divine veil but intervention and sheltron are getting decent regen effects.
Drk still gets sweet fuck all lol
Idgaf about drk, I just think it's funny how little self sustain they have
They have skills that let them last a little longer but nothing that actually helps them survive
PLD has zero self sustain rn so I guess that's even funnier
#general-discussion or #rants my dudes
this ain't a rant this is a humiliation session
this isn't the place for it
ik im just sayin
how do I go to western thanalan? it says theres a ferry dock but no ferry lol
I checked a weapon at Bertana for totems, but it didnt glow in the preview after I set unsheathe, will it glow when I buy it or do i have to craft it to have the glowing version?
either teleport to ul'dah or use the ferry at the arcanist guild in limsa
which weapon?
gotta craft glowing version. the items you get in ex trials are always basic versions of the craftable stuff
ah okey, thanks
it was the Horde rapier
yeah so you get a material called nidhogg's scale on a random chance in the hard or extreme
its extreme only
is there a way to see what bozja field notes you currently have?
this one? its greyed out though
have you unlocked air ship travel?
nope
Do the msq
Yeah did merlwyb give you a letter to give to kan-e-senna
if she didn't then you need to get that, you'll get it at some point in the msq
I see
duty > collection
ty
Is this game pay to win? Like can you actually buy stuff in store that aren't cosmetic only
not really
Kinda need to know this might be a stupid question before I actually dive into it too much
I have upgraded from Trial, but, how do I get into/search for a good FC? The Free Company button on my menu is still greyed out.
that's just convenience
Aren't there 8 days a week in ffxiv? How many days are in a year? I can't find any information on this anywhere
So like you can't actually buy the cool kids stuff?
I couldn't seem to find anywhere where the calendar you see in character creation for your naming day was posted, so instead of having to sign in and hit "create new character" to see the conversion table, I have it written down here for you all to use. The dates that are bolded are the dates that cover 2 suns, also please note that Eorzean wee...
That’s for when you actually join one
Yes there is 8 days in a week for ff14
Ah
!faq communityfinder
You can look on here
depends on how you define "cool kid"
but mogstation doesn't have anything really on it that's going to give you an edge over other people in game
Like dungeon or raid armor stuff that can only be earned
dungeon and raid gear is all earned in game
the items on the mogstation are entirely cosmetic and its up to you to define whether those items are cool or not
What's this quest?
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/The_Making_of_a_Market
Just a part of the Ishgard Restoration questline?
Do I unlock anything after completing this whole questline?
Since I've already got my exp from Ishgard Restoration
most of them are just cool little side quests
and few of them lead into unlocking 2 custom deliveryn pcs
The only thing you could be pedantic about is the fenrir bike in the store which has a faster ground speed compared to other mounts without riding maps
But as soon as u unlock flying this becomes irrelevant cus they all have the same flying speed
I see, doing the first dilivery now
Otherwise the mogstation just carries cosmetic items and skips
Alright thats all I needed to know kinda relieved thanks
Oh and also extra retainers
That's all
Extra retainers really isn't worth it unless you know what you are doing

175 slots per retainer
But yeah, anyway, it's not super mandatory to play the game
Even if you want to omnicraft and go hardcore end game crafting, 2 retainers is enough
Is there a way to change which job is shown on my character profile in the SE site?
Don't think so
log out as that job, and hope the lodestone update catches it
Your Lodestone page just display which job the game last recorded you in
Ah
but outside of that no way to force it

Is it feasible to solo Gordias Savage 2/3/4 with current gear levels?
Or do mechanics shut that down
when is the latest i can preorder endwalker collectors edition
official release
ah so the preorder was also pushed back to dec 7th too?
yes
good evening, I have a problem. I'm trying to finish a quest (Hair club for Hyur) which needs me to use an item on a NPC. However, the castbar will only lower to 2.77 seconds and then interrupt saying "cannot execute at this time". Any tips?
prae or castrum for farming moogle trove? i dont have a BLM
did you click on the npc first and make sure they are targeted while using the item
because if you lose the targeting on them the cast wont complete
you dont really need a black mage for tome farming
you can still do coils turn 2 regardless of what you have
BLUe mage just makes it a bit faster but again its not really required
ok so spam coil turn 2 with a healer/tank?
you can just DF turn 2

It's actually kinda braindead and hard to fuck up
ok will try that i've been doing castrum runs lol
just take this path
Ignoring queue time, what's faster between dungeons and PotD for 40-50
dungeons
Dungeons are always better exp assuming your group finishes average or above average time
Thanks
For 6.0 will the new end-game DoH/L stuff be Yellow Scrip, White Scrip, a new Scrip or craftable only? Or do we not know?
can I pre-order endwalker collectors edition right now even though im on the free trial?
yellow scrips are being removed, and white scrips are moving down to be what yellow scrips are
we're getting a new scrip, purple, which is taking white's place
that said, we will eventually get purple scrip gear but it most likely won't be released in 6.0, usually gets released in like .1
so it'd be crafted set first
you can pre-order, but you won't be able to enter the code until you buy atleast the starter edition
that's fine but just need to make sure you are buying both full game and endwalker thru steam
once you upgrade to full game thru steam, you are locked into buying thru steam for any and all future expansions.
ah okay, yeah ive been playing on steam
steam will have a code in the library section that you put into mogstation
got it
thx
whats the regular maintenance schedule for ffxiv?

maintenances pretty much only happen when there's a patch to be released
really!
there's no regular "once a week" or "once a month" kinda thing, basically
huh
lmaoo i havnt used steam in forever and messed up.. how do i check if i have the collectors edition or if i have the standard cause i might refund, i think i accidentally bought standard
Hullo.
Beast Tribes that are relevant for ANIMA WEAPON QUEST?
how do i turn off censoring
you’ll be able to see on mogstation what you own
they can be helpful for the unidentifiable stage, since that's one way of getting them instead of burning poetics @boreal tree
Like which ones exactly, Kael?
ARR and HW
though the ARR ones are arguably better than HW
since they take less time to get unidentifiable
where do i check? it says i only have the trial version even though i just bought the full game on steam
the only ones that aren't included are the ixali iirc
i should also mention tho
the ARR beast tribes are only good if you have them raised already
Allrighty.
the dungeons can be done unsynced btw
so that step shouldn't take more than an hour or so
I need some help finding a certain armor head, idk the name for it though
It has like 2 horns on the side and kinda looks like the cryptlurker fending helm
Yeeep doing the same.
do i get my key for the mogstation after launching the official game on steam?
cause its not in my email anywhere
the keys should be in the key section of your library for 14
Yeah I found em, this is just really confusing haha
I figured it out though, i was honestly scared, it wasnt as bad as I thought it would be, i heard a lot about this being complicated so i procrastinated on doing it until now lmaoo
where do i use my code for the collectors edition? i redeemed my other 2
when is the early access gonna start?
dec 3rd
so the endwalker CE code currently can't be used
just the pre-order code
once early access starts, then you'll be able to use the code
Where can I get the shadowcleaver armor?
you can't, its a previous feast season reward
What’s that?
pvp
ahh okay, so will i be able to use it on the 7th then?
ranked pvp
Oh
ye, soma
That’s a shame, it looked really cool
got it, writing this down LOL
even if i havent redeemed the expansion code, the new jobs, map and dungeons are still gonna be downloaded right?
Dumb question. How do you use Limit Break? I figured it would be an ability that I could drop on an action bar but can't find one.
WHM LB to be specific
Yeah, it’s a patch. Everyone has to download it
Anyone know where I unlock pvp? I’m level 80 and finished the msq if that matters
it's a blue quest at your GC
What’s the command for redmage hot bar examples?
Thank you. I must have just been overlooking it.
Is it a pup no longer?
Yes
I don't think there is one?
There's examples on Akhmorning but idk if there is a bot command to bring it up
Bugger thanks I worked something out
i maxed out in friendly namazu relationship how do i advance?
There’s a blue quest nearby, get it
got it ty!
Do trials give good exp if their your level at 50 to 60 or only dungeon?
No trials don’t give good exp
Quick question: are there still gil limitations when transferring servers?
i think so i read it about 2 weeks ago so i know its still with in their I guess ToS
something about only 99m

999,999,999 gil per character and retainer (including any gil attached to a moogle letter).
as per tos
i posted this originally in the wrong thread i think, but: i'm new so i'm not sure if this is a glitch or what, but when i start the arcanist quest "Victory in Peril" after the cutscene it says "Duty commenced" and then nothing happens. it says to defeat the pirates and defend the victory, but no one is there and the timer counts down from 30m to 0 without me seeing anyone. am i doing something wrong? i can't progress without completing this quest

i think it's supposed to put me in an instance, but it never does. i've restarted it 4 times now :/
allrdy tried to watch a guide on youtube to see what you need to do?
Is there a way to tell where you are in the doman enclave restoration quest line other than looking at the map? I'd like to know how many more weeks i have till i can get things i want ;-;
Is there a way to exclude some races from searches in eorzea collection ? It's just all femras and cat girls and it's a shame
What gear should I buy at lv 60 DoH? I don't have any scrips yet
i figured it out and this is what i did, too! it took 3 videos before they didn't skip to the fight! the fourth video shows the path, the rest didn't. thank you though
Hmm, Square Enix just charged me for the Endwalker expansion, I thought I had already pre-ordered. Or do they not charge you when you pre-order?
I see, so it seems the early access is near
!expansion
Two weeks, nice
The original charge date was shortly before Early Access was supposed to start
IIRC they sent out emails letting people know that EW is delayed but you will still be charged at the original date
do we know the peak hours for t2 coil?
Not sure, as it's not ran through DF that often
Everything makes sense now, thanks!
You mean, for moogle tomes farm?
yup
or is there a party finder here in discord?
Do we know if Sage and Reaper will require completing SB/SHB/EW, or will they be like early unlocks like GNB/DNC/SAM/RDM?
Wow, That's amazing, I was expecting to have to at least complete the current expansions to get em'
They learned their lesson after HW 
Which would take, long after EW release for me to get through XD
Is Sage the first new healer released since launch?
AST is also a healer
Oh yeah, forgot about AST for a moment there even tho it's my fav healer lol
r/ffxiv: A community for fans of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV, which has a free trial that includes the entirety of "A Realm …
how does one acquire 475+ gear outside of the weapon?
I'm not in a Free Company and I haven't done any challenging group content, only 4-person dungeons
I think I can get some in Eulmore
you'd have to do endgame content from the most recent 2 large content updates
Raids, alliance raids
^
Nier raids
The third Nier raid drops 520 gear
also tomestone gear
Looks like Tomestones of Allegory/Revelation also.
Yup, this.
I haven't done the Nier raids. Is that something I can farm over and over again for gear or do I only have a limited number of times I can acquire gear from there?
yes
Does anyone know what time the endwalker them is released digitally tomorrow?
Yes, they unlocked the weekly limit
the weekly limitations were removed a while ago for the new stuff
!expansion
endwalker theme, i.e. the song, not the expansion
This
Hmm I don't know
who uses this ability (the big orb)
astrologian
Been playing astrologian recently. It’s the only healing class currently in the game that I like. I think it’s really fun. You should give it a try if you have access to heavensward.
if I use a fantasia and then decide not to use it until later, how long will my character on the title screen keep the ability to be customised?
Will it just stay there forever til I change their appearance?
yep
Cool, unfortunately the reason I would want to do that can't even work anyway so I just won't use the fantasia to begin with.
(I wanted to use it to customise them to see what certain gear looks like on other races, but it makes you take off your gear to customise.)
if i want to maximize my subscribtion time with endwalker, which day should i redeem my codes?
the day you start playing? the day your sub renews?
I don't really understand the question
im on trial rn and have already bought both starter edition and endwalker, im asking which day should i redeem both codes to get the most time of the subscription with endwalker
expansions don't come with game time
yes but i bought the starter edition
I mean even then
the end of HW, I guess?
if you want to get as far as you possibly can before having to subscribe
already beat hw with all the classes im interested in at 60
You only get the 30 days from the starter edition
If you buy the other expansions you don't
wait i get 30 or 60?
No, it’s 30
how do people play whole songs with instruments? I finally got the class but playing anything is impossible lmao
I heard you can plug in midi instruments, or something about plugins?
3rd party programs probably
Anyway after your free days are up, you'll be locked into playing until you pay sub
i think they haven't used the starter code yet but i'm still not sure what the question is lol
ye, will endwalker be available to download before early access?
yeaj its hard to put into words what im thinking
yes, class changes and system changes etc will affect all players when early access starts
and no i havent used either starter code
you need endwalker early access if you want to access endwalker content before the 7th
You should probably put in that code sooner or later
but system changes like belt removal, class changes for all other jobs etc will be live for everyone on the 3rd
speaking of belts
im asking if i can download it before the 3rd so im ready to go as early access goes up
will they still be sellable or tradeable for seals (in the case of dungeon/poetics belts) after the removal hits?
Is there a resource or site to find a place for every current crafting rotation while leveling? Whether it would be ishgard, deliveries or leves?
or should i unequip all of them and sell all of them before EW early access?
it'll be up for download sometime during the maintenance between 2nd and 3rd december
probably like 6-12h before launch
maybe less
The only things you won’t be able to do with belts are trade them to other players, extract materia out of them, and (obviously) wear them
any idea how many gb it will be?
So all the prep you’ll need to do before 6.0 is extract materia from them
Probably like 8-10gb based on Shadowbringers
probably around 10-20gb
I read some old guides where you were supposed to penta the 510 gear, what happens if you upgrade it to 520, can you still penta the upgraded versions?
No.

So its better to just upgrade it?
Yes.
Pentamelding combat gear is only great/necessary at the start of a raid tier.
As the tier goes on, it has less value due to getting capped tomestone and savage gear
Should I just power level all my crafters to 70 via ishgard or should I take my time every day using beast tribe quests, leves and stuff?
I plan on doing 70-80 the normal way
Or should I just power them to 80 as well
Since the xpac is coming
for the Bahamut questline, I just have to do that last raid in each segment right
dont have to do 1-5, 1-4, 1-4
just turn 5 turn 4 and turn 4
so ive been playing for 3 months, is it normal for me to struggle on extremes? ive been getting carried on some ShB content, how much time would a casual player need to ease through extremes ?
it varies per player, some people will boost, play for a week and do them with no issues while others who have been playing for years stay away from anything harder than story mode
lol
if you wanna get better then keep practicing and improving, if you're not having fun then just don't do them
nah im having fun the problem is people flaming
sometimes i might even need 20 wipes before i clear
It’s an extreme
That’s pretty average, tbh
Most extremes I took 2-3 full instance timers to clear
It’s also very fight-dependent.
yeah im not sure if ive reached 3 complete timers yet
I struggled like all hell with Emerald and SoS, but got quick clears on Innocence and Diamond.
well im referring to the harder extremes for example diamond weapon
well with sos i had some1 call out mechanics for me via discord so it wasnt that hard
but i think in diamond weapon callouts will probably avail to naught
and innocence was pretty easu
for me
Have you tried making a PF
no one joins
Or asking for one to be made
nah
moreso is there
another way I should be going about these
if I ahve enough time I usually queue normally
You didn’t advertise free poetics did you
From the first-time bonus it gives to every player in the duty.
^
You still get it even when done undersized.
Helping a first timer do all the coils gives 1200 poetics
thats neat
All endgame duties give bonus poetics for a first timer being in the group
As incentive for experienced players to help
I see
you might want to wait until EW drops
how come
