!faq Armory Bonus
Yeah, hence my plans to upgrade for endwalker
Goddamn it
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
Why do people like GNB? I'm just curious
That is a very odd wyestion to ask lol
Well as a GNB main, I like how the combos feel and the aesthetic of the Job as a whole
Is GNB Gunblade users??
Yep
Dang i wanna try one but that's shadowbringer only:( . .plus . .still in Arr🤣🤣
Yeah you'll need level 60
I'm 51 and on trial soo sadly can't get Red Mage/Samurai ether ._.
how do i increase size of chat font? i did char config - log window - chat prompt font size. this is not it
oh under log details, disregard, i didnt read the guide right
Oh ok was gonna give some thoughts lol
I figured it out, the 3D character angle got changed for some reason
After looking at the length of the Heavensward postquest, I've decided to wait for Endwalker before upgrading to a non-trial account.
Good choice tbh
Thanks for changing my mind.

Misc help needed:
Friend's Square Enix account is EU, made it when he was deployed overseas, he has ARR & Heavensward through steam. Just bought Shadowbringers through steam and found he can't add that CD key to his Mogstation account. Can he somehow buy an EU Shadowbringers code compatible w steam? Or maybe set steam to EU somehow? 😦
hey is samurai considered a hard, normalish or easy difficulty job?
Personally, I consider it decently easy in fights with no downtime. But once downtime happens you need to know how to adjust your rotation to ensure Meikyo Shisui and Tsubame-Gaeshi are always used when available.
So it requires a good amount of thinking/knowledge of the fight to know how to handle your rotation after downtime
Will the servers be down on December 2nd in preparation for the early access of Endwalker on the 3rd?
Yes
alright
I'm just trying to figure out how many allowances total I should make coffee biscuits for, lol
looks like with the allowances I have now and the allowances between now and the 1st I'll need... just shy of 1500 coffee biscuits
question re: recruit a friend
i've got a couple friends who are starting to play the game -- they've both bought the complete version of the game, and are both currently on the free 30 days that come with that... but neither of their mogstations are showing the option to put in a referral code.
what are we doing wrong? how can they put in my code?
About the endwalker summoner, does the carbuncle still do damage on its own?
No
oof, bummer
It basically exists for the new summoning system now
what were the two spells it has again?
It only does Searing light (Devotion) and Radiant Aegis (Titan shield)
Should I level up bard, or black mage in bozja. I wanna level up hard because I can make this when I get paid tomorrow but at the same time I wanna level black mage
Do both?
should i prioritize blue icon quests than the msq for my first playthrough?
!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.
Where do I exchange my tomestones in shb
But most of them are mainly for Class unlocks
ok cool bcuz one of my blue quests are further away from the location of my msq
Eulmore after completing the quest titled shadowbringers,
Already finished it 
what do they do?
Then go to the aetheryte plaza and go to the long table
how can i pass him 
Walk past him. Switch to walk and just stroll on by
Be sure to get far enough away before going back to running
Um can I still buy weapons right with tomestomes
What is the max number of grade 3 aetherial wheels you can possess at one time? Primed or unprimed
No, you need to buy 10 tokens using 1000 tomestones + and exchange item you trade for using 4 e12 normal blade drop
there's a little banner toward the bottom that's not in the same spot as all the other code redemption options
I do say "toward the bottom" but it's not quite there, it's above where it lists what things you have on your account
OK thank you
oh, i know about the banner, cuz i had to go there to grab the code -- is that where the friends would redeem the code as well?
I... think so? admittedly I don't quite know because 1) I can't check currently, as I'd need to run to grab my phone for the 2FA, and 2) it wouldn't show up on my end
So, Where do I go to assign my Retainers their job, and send them out on ventures?
I thought this page https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/special/friend_recruit/ would say, but it doesn't
in the menu with your retainer, same place as if you sold items on the market or interacted with their inventory
Ah, So the quest does unlock it, I forgot about it
yeah, i'm just super confused because there's an FAQ page that says "yeah it'll be with these buttons to enter item codes and all"
and in both cases it just
isn't 
...is there maintenance?
nah i think in this case my friend's just not telling me things
because the free 30 days don't count as subscription days, yeah?
for the purposes of veteran rewards and all
correct, free days don't count towards things like vet rewards etc
long story short i apologize for wasting y'all's time 😅
no
this friend didn't bother to tell me her account dates back to the 2.0 days
gonna try updating my computer and see if its an indexing issue then
How do I unlock Heaven-on-High??
im lvl 11 rn but once i get a mount, can i still do all the blue quests that i have at the moment?
clear floor 50 for potd, the msq "Tide Goes in, Imperials Go Out" and do the quest "Knocking on Heaven's Door" in the ruby sea
Is there any way to disable the popup text that appears when walking into a sub-region? Same thing for when a fate is found..
Is th MSQ part in post-stormblood or is it base-sb? I'm in 4.2 atm
hmm
Does anyone have a good HQ pizza macro? Pls and ty in advance
Is the HoH unlock quest a blue quest?
yes
Also, is the parameter bar display dynamic at all?
The only Blue Quest in my ruby sea map is "An Auspicious Encounter"
This may be a dumb question, but would it be a bad habit for me to create my own rotation for paladin. I made sure to look at the Paladin rotation on the balance server, when creating the rotation. I find it easier to learn rotations through this method
you certain you havent unlocked it already?
Well the guard wont let me in
I just finished shadowbringer 5.0 and my inventory and retainer are like full so what should I keep that is worth something?
that's not the correct npc
oh?
kyusei is
Is there a way to disable the popup text when entering a sub-region?
No
Where's Kyusei?
Oh shoot
Thanks though!
Ohh!! Tysm
kamuy mounts are from msq trial extremes or something else too like it was in hw?
same concept as hw
there's an optional side quest series that unlock several trials that also have extreme versions
for stormblood, its called "The Four Lords"
that's the only questline i need other than msq?
You need to complete Hope on the Waves MSQ for it
Then you just clear Auspicious Encounter and the following chain
ok ill get to just before shb starts and start that before farming
already have a lvl 80 ready for it, and it's not even my main job
Hi guys, need help for ast in e11s
I asked the same question in balance but thought I could ask.here as well
Question, for leveling past 75 is it worth it doing duty roullette level 50/70 dungeon? Or is it better to just go into random ShB instances
50/60/70 roulette generally isn't worth it for exp
50/60/70 and normal raids are usually used for tome
since the roulette and the dungeons themselves dont give good exp
should be doing the highest lvl shb dungeon you can (or bozja if you have that unlocked)
So for leveling the only worth one is the "leveling" in the duty roullette?
Wat
msq/leveling/alliance are the big 3
You can use Frontline to level?
yeah, they are decent
frontline is slightly below, and trials under that since its not that much xp but generally quick so makes it worth doing
And yes pvp gives exp
how much is final fantasy per month?
10.99 Euro
!faq subprice
!faq subpriceeu
there's no other faq for subprices..
If i have up to malikah's well, can i go to dohn meg?
i think dohn meg is 76 right? and malikah is like 79
I'm doing a second anima relic, shouldn't it track my progress when runnign the dungeons again?
I made a mistake of alternating between 2 class to get MSQ exp, and now both my SAM and GNB is at 77, while the msq needs me to be at 78
and malikah is 77
then just maliakh
Damn, i can do malikah but ugh
Get wiped really often
you can do wondrous tails if you haven't yet
1 wacky party member usually
im saying if they really dislike malikah, should do the dungeon 1 below the level range that's appropriate
but you should be doing malikah for best exp
Yea last time i did malikah, we get wiped at the last boss section for like 5 times
So im like
The heck
🤷♂️ sometimes you just get shitty teams
"Can i do the crazy frog parkour instead, its less stressfull"
And i always can Wall to wall in dohn meg
It'll be much less xp
have you done your Wondrous Tails for the week?
and roulettes for today?
including frontline?
frontline in JP has very tight queue window
I did roulettes for today, yea just now
what about Wondrous Tails?
Havent unlocked both
WT goated
half a level for barely any effort
Aight idyllshire it is
You can literally just load up an unsynced arr extreme and solo it as your goonbie
WT reset everyday?
yeh don't skip blue quests, some of them has optional leveling dungeon for lower level
Whoa nice
no
on Tuesdays
its weekly
!weekly
Is Eureka worth unlocking?
Cookies is still considered one of the most efficient methods to earn gil right?
complete challenge log, then you gained bonus exp
Eureka has their own section, that's the objective to clear
and then join any FATE like Bozjan
Ooh okay
It also have FF11 nostalgia all over the place
Like, other methods of grinding gil is all just about as time efficient as Cookies?
story is nice
I havent reached Bozja, still doing 4.2 MSQ
ah yeah, can skip that then since it's recommended to get 300 ilvl to enter
Is it recommended to do Eureka in a group?
if you party up with people 5 levels(?) above/below you, your challenge log won't count
but if there's a notorious monster fate, you should use /say to ask for party when you get there
ohh ok, similar to hunts then. ty
just 9 of them
9?
and 2nd chance points can be used to re-do the easy ones if you want
Holy shit that's not easy task
i can do mine in 15 mins if i have all 9 of my 2nd chance points up
they take an hour to do tops … very easy
power of unsynch

My main strategy for WT is the entire top row besides maybe level 71-79 dungeons, all ARR primals along with Ravana/Bismarck, and then the alliance and normal raids
You can easily solo all of Coil as a level 80, though second coil turn 3 and turn 4 can be harder for some jobs
Alexander is mostly doable solo too, but some floors will want you as a tank or healer for keeping yourself alive
You have just sent a man to go insane
if im on free trial and i upgrade to starter, will i have to install anything?
is there a reason why the final coils of bahamut takes so long to queue?
no
ty
there is no roulette including coil of bahamut raid
whelp im dumb, waited like 45 mins. ffxiv lied to me T-T it said less than 5 mins
Blu log question, why isnt delta/sigma v1 listed if 2 spells are from those dungeons?
any tips for a trial player? what do I spend on 
180 votes and 31 comments so far on Reddit
Is there a list on where to farm specific lost arts in bozja
i bought 99 of all potions i need and just carelessly use the aesthetician
also good ideas, I bought a ton of dyes and just stored them in my saddlebag lol
Hi guys, this may be an odd question especially from one new to the game, but as a player looking to invest a lot of time into the game I'm wondering about the long-term viability of classes in later, end-game content. I'm currently in the process of locking down a class I want to continue the game with and my concern is if the classes I play will not be viable as others, therefor causing me to lose favour and be a hindrance to people in later content.
So far I'm considering Bard, Samurai or Red Mage for a class I'm hoping to stick with.
Can anyone clear this up with me? I don't want to be a burden in end-game content later down the line.

Hello,may i ask what hand glam this was?? Thank u ;;
!faq meta
no
no.you have to examine them after entered the raid
i mean, there’s an iLevel setting in pf so i guess not
and there’s no penalty for leaving a pf so no x2
hm true
Question, after i do my eureka relic to hydatos step that requires 5 scales, the glow that the warrior axe will get, can i change it or dye it to something different?
Pain peko, welp, it is what it is
Recently returned to the game and catching up before the expansion drops. Remind me. If I don't have SB completed before Endwalker drops, would I still be able to acquire the new classes if I were interested in transitioning into one?
as long as you own the expac, you can pick up new jobs
and and meet the level requirements too
!faq expansionjobs
Heavensward Expansion Jobs: Dark Knight (Tank), Astrologian (Healer), and Machinist (Ranged DPS). These jobs start at level 30 and require completion of the level 50 main scenario quest 'Before the Dawn'.

Dark Knight - Pillars(13,8).
Astrologian - Pillars(15,10).
Machinist - Foundation(8,10).
Stormblood Expansion Jobs: Red Mage (Caster DPS) and Samurai (Melee DPS). These jobs start at level 50 and require ownership of the Stormblood Expansion and a disciple of war or magic job at level 50.
Quest Unlock Locations:
Red Mage - Ul'dah(14,17).
Samurai - Ul'dah(9,9).

Dancer - Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks (9,12).
Trying to plan out my streams — is the Heavensward quest comparable to The Ultimate Weapon and Before the Dawn in cutscene length/credits? I'm starting tomorrow night's stream with "First Flight of the Excelsior" and trying to sort out whether it'll fit in one ~3-hour go or I need to save Heavensward for Friday.
This might be not the right place but. Does anyone know if this discord or any place outside of here has a section for people that help eachother find a outfit for that fashon report thing in Golden saucer?
Yes
As long as you own endwalker
Expansion jobs aren't story locked, outside of heavensward ones
Appreciate it, thank you.

New to the game, started in October now in shadowbringers. Trying to msq grind before endwalker
Do you have to buy ff14 to get the free trial???
Use the trial launcher
Heh. I'm not that far along, but I've been limiting my MSQ quests to stream times. Just getting ready to finish 3.0.
Oh yeah, does anyone if there anyway to free up space in your inventory..? My inventory only has 2 slots left
Chocobo bags full as well?
Chocobo bags?
You can sell shit you don't need, which is probably a lot of stuff
Your chocobo has a saddlebag that has 60 free inventory slots
Or store it on a retainer
Tbh I'm thinking of just selling all of my crafting materials since I don't plan on crafting until after EW drops and I level all of the battle jobs
I don't really craft and it's taking up space
Is there a video on how can even get into my own chocobo's bag?
Or is there a quest to complete for it?
Retainers also let you sell stuff on the markets, which I still think of as the auction house because I came here from WoW.
Chocobo bags are Ctrl-shift-i on Mac; think PC is same but not sure.
I'd have to find a retainer where I'm at or fast travel. I only got retainers in ishgard and gridania , I'm far away somewhere in shadowbringers
Unlock Companions
Then you can use saddlebag
!quest My Feisty little chocobo

Im trying to login to the trial launcher using my account that I just made, it says the service account in question is not registered and when i try going to the website and registering it it asks for a ff14 code 💀
What am i doing wrong 😭
Use your mogstation info
Ah, i guess i should complete that now. A friend told me i should do it but ignored it up until now
what do i do here???
this comes up
What does your account type on mogstation say
Llauqs
where do i find that?
Do you think it's best I spam ALEXANDER?
Than spending a gazillion poetics and farming them too
Anima Shenanigans.
Do Eureka
that's a lot of alexander runs
hi i just try to get back in the game
should i transfer my character or start fresh?
if there are any preferred servers transfer is good
i have one in Maetus and 1 inMidgardsormr (Aether)
hmm there aren't any prefererd servers rn
if not then whatever server right>?
This or dungeons, ughh
Just do Eureka if you haven't yet
yea, maybe read up on some server stereotypes to influence your decision 
Eureka fates give you like 30-100 each
I paid from Twitania to Raganrok
A friend wouldn't let me sleep if I dind't transfer.
And now look, I'm knee deep
Anyway, repeating my question: I'm streaming my MSQ runs and just finishing 3.0 — "First Flight of the Excelsior" will be my first quest tomorrow night. Ideally, I'd like to close out 3.0 tomorrow but it would be helpful to know if the dungeon-trial combo in the final quest, plus cutscenes, is comparable to how 2.0 and 2.55 ended. And will there be another set of credits? Thanks...
any recommend server?
Honestly, same.
I mean, sure, we play from time to time but most of this is solo anyhow;
On that note, choose the one you're closest in.
CASPIAN!
comparable in what way? in that that there are some long cutscenes and then a set of credits? yes that is how all .0 patches end
Confirm that I can run ALEXANDER one million times to get the stuff for the unidentifiable ore, seed and shell
The materials to exchange for the same.
Much better since it's guaranteed drops nho? And I get poetics too while at it.
you mean as in, will you continue getting drops? yeah
why does my accoutn status
i have no idea if it's efficient
there are limits on how many instances you can clear in a time period, but i'm unsure on the exact numbers. people were hitting those limits with BLU farming of coils T2
if you haven't bought anything you're still in free trial, probably just weird wording
Am I limited for this then?
Ehhhh
you'll probably won't reach the limit, it's very generous
far cry from WoW's 10 instances an hour
OK. I'll play it by ear then based on what time I hit the last quest. Thanks!
what are you getting them for? thanalan topsoil? you can get that with 150 poetics, it's pretty much the only decent thing to spend poetics on after you no longer need gear for your alt jobs

!iglam mimesis lux
@honest anvil bullied me into getting it

But in all seriousness, OK; I'm already at the unidentifiable stuff (already got the bones) will just push through
whats the diff between a guildhest and a dungeon?
guildhest is a tutorial for group play
they introduce basic concepts and are not used later on
oh ok
||it's preferrable that i enter with a duty finder party, right? something about this just doesn't seem good but alas|| (shadowbringers feature question)
Personally, I just tried this when I wanted to push ONE character to level up; didn't finish though.
Just go on the usual way
People will always queue.
friend wants to make SE account and keeps getting i2501 error and he's at his wits' end. Wth is that error because I don't remember getting one 7 years ago?
how do i get rid of this type of targeting?? i've suddenly had this hard lock on when usually there is not
Numpad 5
Right click on the enemy name and reset aggro
Hes talking about lock on
it turns back on when i use Fleche or Contra SIxte but not things like Jolt or Ver-skills
It shouldn't
Unless your keys a bound like that
Or you messed with your targeting settings
hmm okay, thank you Channy I'll look into it!!
Does bozja zones give any revelation tomestones for max lvl jobs?
Like 2 per skirmish
Hmmmm ok that's not a lot at all
I did the quest for the wondrous tails how do you access the journal I don't see any option to.
you can totally do every shb leveling dungeon with trusts, the only thing that is inferior will be the clear time, trusts are noticeably slower at killing stuff and can't handle more than 2 packs
Key items
plus you'll get more gear since all gear will go to you
Oh ok thanks!
plus it's kinda cool to do the dungeons the more lore-appropriate way
is there a way tyo hide necklace adn rings in glamour?
oh thanks
there's a vendor in mor dhona and waking sands
no, very very niche use in some select few savage raids
dont waste a good keybind on it yes
it's a repeatable quest, no limits

350 poetics per
Yeah, that's expensive and will take time in getting those
So 1 run = 1 aether oi; 5
how can i check if a gear is dye-able?
!faq dyeicons
Ty
How can you check if a item that have been glamoured can be dyed or not?
Remove the glamour and check?
why would you want to know that?
but you can do 'try on', then look in the chat log, right click the item there, 'try on' it
and see if it has the dye icon in the try on interface
no reason to, the item being undyable doesn't matter for glamour and its dyes
Yeah
Pick up quest in Mor Dhona called "The Gift of the Archmagus" for 1, can run infinitly for all 5, but you get 100 poetics each so it helps kill 2 birds with 1 stone
I overlooked this; heh; but YES, noted.
what masterwork 7 goldsmith stuff sells the most anyone know?
Does SB have a main city like how all through HW you'd use Return back to Foundation? Just a small thing I like to do, have the main city for the expansion binded to my Return skill.
i mean you can set return to the biggest city in the expansion but like
i dont think there's a "main city"
for stormblood
All expansions have their own Main, large city and an endgame hub area
Kugane is the main city
i was thinking moreso like
Ok, Just a small thing I was wondering, Especially now that I got to Kugane, Doma may be my favorite main region in the game
kugane is the flagship city of stormblood
With the asian aesthetics
All over the marketting and has its purpose as the MB and leve city
the story doesn't revolve around kugane to the extent that heavensward does with ishgard
it’s still the main city regardless of plot relevance
Yeah, I was just meaning more like, If Kugane is the main city, with all the vendors, NPCs, etc.
yeah kugane for sure
All expansions have their main city area and endgame hub area
Alright, Thanks 
i forgot what stormblood endgame hub would be? ||doman enclave||?
oh yea
Hey if my highest level will be a sam can I still unlock dancer and gun breaker with it?
you can unlock those classes regardless of what job you're playing
Alright thanks :)
just dependent on level
So i heard this somewhere and not sure. Do leveling dungeons like 71-79 drop gear dependent on what job you're playing?
Do all DoH classes have the same skills as all the other DoH?
Basically yes
All levelling dungeons do
same skills, different flavor
Is there like a resource somewhere that you the optimal order for the DoH skills or something

Hi, can I check my reputation with custom delivery recipients without visiting them in person?
Timers
go to Duty->Timers
It was added when you unlocked custom deliveries
Thanks!
you can press most entries there
Since it's a timed thing
Thanks
Yeah, I saw the "Allowances: x" all the time, just never bothered clicking the icon next to it
Do we know the time endwalker releases? Like the actual time, not the date
Not really
we dont know how long maintenance is going to be
They'll post the maintenance time closer to the day
They're typically 24 hours
I believe previous ones have happened around 10am pdt
Or around there
oh wow... that page also tells you what the deliverees are currently looking for... dammit... I maxed out 3 custom deliveries already without ever knowing that. this changes everything
Ahh alright
oh god thats a thing?
In your timers
timers window keeps track of a lot of helpful stuff and has more detailed information on some of them if you click through
be aware! 
wow, just started ARC and Straight Shot feels straight up garbage, a proc for +20 potency on your next GCD, does it get better?
I learned today about linking glamour plates to gearsets
Gonna be real here, no
yes
it does
!action refulgent arrow
Refulgent feels nicer
180->200 just feels like you shouldn't bother
5% is a lot
Not like you have much else to do
it's just that all the other classes have ... better incentives for pressing different buttons on lower levels
and fixing a level 2 ability on level 70 just feels... wow
Heard someone say yesterday that the Fenrir bike mount travels at max speed in Zadnor regardless of whether or not you have a map.
This true?
Fenrir bike always travels at higher ground speed
Well not insanely higher but you can still feel the difference somewhat
Hey, do paladins have to go through the ultimates twice to get the skins, or is one clear enough for both sword & shield?
I am nowhere near clearing it but this is a question I've always had in the back of my mind lol
only once
Cool cool, thank you!
1 totem = 1 sword and 1 shield
literally not possible to only get 1 and not the other so don’t worry o/
Nice, I love the TEA paladin set - might be able to clear it sometime in 2022
are there any "reusable" sources of allagan silver pieces aside from retainer field explorations?
anyone know what's the average dps for a decent player at level 70?
ya TEA weapons are the best o/ good luck
feel like this heavily depends on job
doman enclave has a turn-in system for gil
ye I just want to know like a baseline
each week hit the limit and evutally you can sell items for double the normal cash
is it like 6k?
for which content
like are you doin ultimates? hoh? eureka? normal non-synced dungeons?
ok, ucob or uwu?
since those are different ilvls
whichever is higher
uwu is synced to ilvl 375, 30 ilvls lower than non-capped SB content
which job are ya playin?
let's just say average across all dps jobs

i’m told i390 blu does around 14k so … 6k for normal dps feels low?
anywhere from 4-6k depending on job and gear
almost all groups use relics for additional substats so thier dps is higher than back in SB
ah okay ty
Out of curiosity, is there a way for me to get even a rough guess on how likely it is for me to get a HQ craft from quick synthesis for a certain recipe with my stats?
best way would be to just make an item with no buffs to the quality and see the %
wtf does this ruling mean on TT
Just finished doing the Gae Bolg ARR quest, I was told that it can be a weapon that "levels up" along with me, but how can I make it actually do that? Currently its weaker than my equipped lance
https://gyazo.com/df6ae995f0d031fba41b96c9360251f4 Where and what is this quest even? I don't have any other job but my Dragoon lancer
crafting gathering stuff
It specifies requiring a disciple of the hand/land - i.e. crafters and gatherers
do i need to be like a weaver or something?
similarly to how combat classes have role quests in shadowbringers, those crystalline mean quests are basically crafting/gathering role quests
Anything on this page
!faq waytozodiac
oh i see
Just by using them or?
grinding omegalul
generally speaking, any relic weapons for non-current expansions are only worth going for when it comes to glamour
relics are designed to be the "grindy" mmo content in this game
yup
Took me like a day to get it, but how do I get it to upgrade, then?
the shadowbringers relic is BiS rn but in 2 weeks will be the same strength as a lvl 85 weapon
its explained in that reddit link?
ye
with one exception for whether or not it's BiS, iirc?
nope, BiS for everything
customizable substats bby
true
so at this point it's basically not worth getting shb relic?
gonna remain BiS for ultamites for a while too
since in 2 weeks its more or less obsolete
unless you're doing an ultimate or want the glam
nah
then no
I just don't want to do any of the grinds
hot take: unlocking the first few quests might be good, for the xp when leveling 71-80 in Bozja
actually kind of a cold take
mildly warm
like hot chocolate sitting on a desk for three hours warm
sludgy
well back to gathering for cookies
wait I lied it's past 4am
when the hell did that happen
goodnight
are any crafting/gathering jobs needed to do certain stuff though
uhh
a couple beast tribes are crafting-focused
crystalline mean, as mentioned earlier
like if you could make higher ilvl gear or smth
Yes
fishing boat achievements, including the shark mount
Current top gear is Exarchic with melding for ilvl 510
mounts and achievements I don't care about
current top crafted* gear
mostly stuff that could benefit doing content like raiding ect
crafting gets players the basic gear needed for high-end raids, as well as the consumables
Well there's alchemy... with potions and extreme needs food so CUL
at the start of a new raid tier you can make a ton of cash
does gil even have much use
guys, how does one take out the mount that is apart of a quest if you unmounted it?
or you can just farm other content for gil and buy that shit
Gil is time saver
Character -> Mount Guide
talk to npc with blue ! inside
You need to go back to an NPC to get on it again
but apart from that I could just not have anything to do with doh/L right
oh I misread, yeah if it's part of a quest
bc I don't want to do any of that stuff
yeah pretty much, nothing in this game is required after all
You don't have to
see: any Limsa aetheryte, where people stand around all day and that's fun to them so they keep doing it
There are several ways to make coins aside from crafting
I'm not really looking for a way to make gil
just asking if crafting stuff is ever relevant
it is
Only as relevant as you want it to be
if you want it too yeah
but I could also just never touch that stuff, yes?
correct
correct
all up to you
I'm leveling DoH right now because I'm having fun
I don't mind crafting/gathering, but many people see it as a boring grind
or you can grind mgp, those mini game can be time-consuming as hell
I think it's neat.
anyone know who is this, so i can copy the aesthetic
paladin relic weapon/shield, arr iirc
I like it because I have to actually think compared to crafting in other games
and that's artifact armour
Isn't that the PLD job gear?
yes
Roegadyn
just a stand-in roe
bruh the gold saucer is the worst place
I only go there for the cactpot and mini one
Gold saucer is my second home and leap of faith is my bedroom
I don't understand how people can do the same repetitive things there for so long
you've never farmed an extreme that's part of a current expansion have you
I don't have a brain to get bored out of
cultured, good
my brain is too smooth, the boring ideas simply slide right off
triple triad, chocobo, the grind for perfection, completionist
i've seen people say that about raiding, it really just depends on the player
raiding is infinitely more than than the saucer
The important part is just knowing what is your cup of tea in this game
Raids are quite boring tbh
triple triad is pure bs
ok fair
millions of npc rules for no reason and broken decks
I haven't actually played a game of TT, I've just unlocked it to get cards as I do content
I intend to at some point... I want the card mount
every single swap rule takes your card with A and replaces it with utter garbage
it could be like FF9 where you HAVE to do a shitty version of TT for story
but I'm definitely one of those players that will get too into it
I have yet to beat witcher 3 because I just play gwent the whole time
nah TT is just pure rng
How about a round of gwent triple triad?
My only gripe with it is card rewards from npcs is shite rng instead of winning based
Like gwent
Tendou, you said achievements aren't really your thing earlier... but what if it was an achievement not many have?
It really should be more like gwent
Well achievements is something you get anyway, make sure to collect some rewards tho, they are pretty swell
card drop rate from npc isnt bad bar one card so keep on carding
Tho you said you aren't interested in a lot of things aside from raiding
realistically how long does it take to collect every card needed for the mount?
took me a month
I don't know
and how consistently were you going at that? Was it the only thing you did?
though it depends on how much content you have done before
i didnt do any of eureka, blue mage, zadnor beforehand so that took some time
I still need to do the FATEs that give TT cards
then some platinum cards needed so much mgp
fates cards were fast tbh .. i did them leisurely
were you playing BLU?
ugh speaking of FATEs I still need to get my last field note
no but fat Chocobo is a big boss fate, something you can't solo
I'm dreading going back into Zadnor for that note
you can get fat choco from an npc
Lots of people actually have that title
which npc?
more than expected, but it's still the relative minority, isn't it?
one of the gnaths
game only says the stupid fate
oh dont trust the game’s guide for that
Need some help finding all Triple Triad cards on Final Fantasy XIV? ARR: Triple Triad is the website for you! Here you'll find cards location, challengeable NPCs and much more.
use this ^^
If memory serves it’s not in the top 100 rarest achievements anywhere on any tracker sites
interesting
I'm sure Gunnhildr's Blade is though, lol
having to win all six duels
Nope
but that gnath is after reaching rank 7, quite a while to get there
that’s because the top actual 100 are very obscure
wow
Rarest currently is treasure dungeon stuff, then a bunch of pvp ones. Even Ultimate clears aren’t in top 100 rarest anymore
You forgot castle in the sky
ye, cause they are obscure shit no one cares about …
evidently ^
while ultimates, potd solo are actively pursued..
And therefore a losing value
Ocean fishing titles are pretty rare
I mean, same can be said for Saint of the Firmament
My rarest title that I own according to FFXIVcollect is “Manta Maniac”
just because more acquire them does not mean its prestige drop
No, it does
like there’s this one magitek mount on mog station that’s “rare” cause no one buys it …
doesnt make it any valuable, does it?
No, and that’s exactly why the Necromancer and Legend titles aren’t valuable. People paying for clears and piloting
Apparently mine is master miner
20k hq gathers on miner
people buy doesnt make those any less prestigious
4 titles from Ocean Fishing, one from Custom Deliveries, 3 from Crafting stuff, and 2 from Bozjan Southern Front.
Yes it does XD
Does it though
shame on those people but why trivialize lots of people’s actual dedication
The fact that people are willing to spend 3 figures+ shows how in demand they are
So I'm gearing an alt out of boredom right now but what's the best way to do it without spending gil?
Revelation grind is a huge chore, I got a 530 cryptlurker weapon and i've got 520 chest and pants that are augmented exarchic, but I'm 457 so i can't queue for a lot of stuff.
Because they just want the shiny
Alt class or alt character?
k, and that shiny either costs you some good 50+ hours or some hundreds bucks ¯_(ツ)_/¯ value is there either way
Maxed and melded crafters?
Prestigious is something that inspires respect and admiration. Soloing potd from 1 - 200 does that for most people. Same with triple legend. More people having it doesnt mean its less prestigious
I don't have crafters lol
Spam Puppet’s Bunker/Paradigm’s Breach for i490 and i520 gear
Or spam Eden’s Promise for i510
No way around it without gil then if you don’t want to grind
I didn't say I don't want to grind, I'm just asking for the best things to grind.

sorry I didn't make that clear
Paradigm’s Breach for i520 left-side minus belt, then Eden’s Promise for i510 accessories and belt
“X is a huge chore” typically comes off as not wanting to do it.
Cool thanks
take things easy .. find an inspiration and work on it
You'll need all 3 nier raids to augment Cryptlurker anyways
^
Oh actually I need 495 for paradigm
like, i did TEA cause i like the weapons and worked for card mount cause i like TT since VIII but you do you ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I mean sure but it's like 2k nuts per augment
And a hunt train only gives like 400 ish
Yea I'd rather do nier raids for augmenting
2k if accessory or belt, 3k if anything else on left side; 480 per full hunt train with max participation on all marks
but I need to actually get to the ilvl that will let me queue for paradigm's reach and eden's promise
Run it as your main and roll greed on the pieces for your alt until its ilvl is high enough to actually run it
quick question, which class healer is easier to use since i want to give a try
(mostly i play tanks and dps)
I guess that makes sense, I thought maybe it'd be possible or fun to gear it from the bottom itself since i'm just looking for something to do. lmao
Currently? Probably WHM
I'd personally say white mage (starts as conjurer) because it's currently the only pure healer
White mage
Cuz it's fundamentally reactive
You can't do shit for damage you know is coming but you can heal damage received
And fairly straight forward. No stance memorizing or pet micromanaging to worry about
new experience
Yea, Holy spam XD
oh
glare turret go brr
oh right glare bomb
Every class is a dps
Astro has the lowest personal dmg
don't make me get the jocat video
anyway thank you again and i will watch some guides about it
I mean you have divine benison
and that's getting a second charge in Endwalker 
Yeah, but it doesn't really change the fundamentals of a pure healer
Drg gets that single use bloodbath, doesn't make it a tank
hey, so I'm looking at ffxivcollect, right. Looking at minions, and I notice the Wind-Up Palom, which says it comes from Endwalker preorder. Is that only if you preorder the complete edition that I get it, or does every preorder get it, just like.. on expansion release?
Any preorder
Comes with your preorder goodies
The other twin comes with collectors edition
oh I do have it... misinterpreted what I was looking at
thank you
I don't really use this site much, still getting used to it
also I had to turn on my achievements being public, how often would it be able to update so I could see on ffxivcollect
Yea, pre-order bonuses aren’t restricted to the product, just that you’re actually pre-ordering
got it, thanks
Typically the tracker sites ignore exclusive stuff for percentage ownership
Like the white and black fat chocobos, the butterfinger campaign mount, pre-order rewards, expired minions from soundtracks
I see
Also includes events like the regalia, yo-kai minions and mounts, garo mounts, and DQ and FF11 minions

where do I see my rarest achievements on ffxivcollect?
I've only been playing for about half a year, so I don't expect too much, but
can anyone who is subscribed and on hyperion help me and my buddy be in the same party?
I can do it if you gimme a few to transfer over
Where shall I meet you?
@silver mesa
mk got them^
what are the rules on lb resetting? I know Nero in prae resets lb, the bosses in Crystal tower do too. does it happen in dungeons? how can you tell?
I don't think it happens in any dungeons except for meridianum/praetorium; alliance raids it happens at every boss it seems like, but don't quote me
I honestly never gave it any thought on there being specific "rules" in place for when it happens, I just started picking up on where it did occur
never looked for a pattern
I've become a lb hungry rdm. I'll happily LB a bunch of mobs before bosses, and I'll especially do it if I know the bar resets anyway. I just want to be on the safer side of things.
Also, would people kick me for LBing mobs? should I communicate before doing it?
I don't think they'd kick you, but it's most effective on bosses
I know it is more efficient than melee when there are 4 mobs but I assume others don't know that
when I was leveling bard, I'd use it even if we had a melee dps because I wanted to clear adds out of a boss fight, such as in Haukke Manor's final fight
it's a damage gain to use aoe lb on 2 targets than a melee lb on one boss so you can freely LB mob packs
if they kick you it's votekick abuse
caster LB is more effective on large packs than a melee LB on a boss
it is a gain in 2+? not 4+?
its 2
I don't even know how to report people. Someone was toxic in pvp yesterday and all I had for the report button was "report rmt abuse"
System -> Support Desk -> Contact Us -> Report Harassment
that's the true way to report, but the RMT activity got to a state where it was easiest to just do a "quick report" system for it specifically
Sounds dangerous to report a toxic player on rmt, the game says if it finds it false you'd get a penalty
Which is why you don't report them on RMT
you report them for harassment at the support desk
But I'll keep the longer true route in mind
Someone mildly toxic I'll probably leave alone but getting kicked over LB will be a good trigger
yes
hey guys! How many ppl is needed for doing maps lvl 80?
is there anyway we could do it in duo or too insane?
Gliderskin is solo, iirc; Zonureskin can have up to 8
I've done them with 3 before, not with 2
But a more comfortable spot was around 5
okay ty!
With any group, a tank and healer is a must, but you generally don't need more than that - the remaining people can be dps
2nd healer or a SMN/RDM can be helpful if a healer dies
is it somehow bm to use rdm lb3 (verflashbang)?
if there are 2 bosses like that part in Paradigm, go for it
or in extreme farms and the melee doesnt use it and you know boss will die with you using it
I meant it more on the side of blinding everyone and getting people angry
that’s more a meme than a real concern
Making sure doesn't hurt. Thanks for the help.
i’d not worry bout it in that sense
I will start casting my lb 3 times
That's your warning
Then you're getting a vermillion scourge
You: WHM's Holy
The guy she tells you not to worry about: RDM's lb3
I put other players effect to low cuz of holy
Will it ever hurt in the sense of missing field buffs
“show limited”
Like star? I heard that was a thing
Set it to show limited
limited will still display effects like asylum
And pocket sand
yeah that what I have
I'm calling it that from now on
pocket sand? ninja?
yes
So raw emotions can be obtained from any 4.X dungeon from Ala Mhigo onward?
ye
And the drop rate is 100%?
when I eventually level my RDM I'm probably going to set an ability macro to use for LB3, separate from my normal LB button on my crossbar
How do i know if a gear is dyeable or not from the board?
Why would anyone do Delubrum or Dalriada in its place then? :x
grind other stuff at the same time
I have a macro to center the lb on myself because of uwu
top right corner of the item icon, if there's a circle it can be dyed
Mettle, timeworns, achievements, field notes, weeklies
Thanks
if you're running Delebrum, you can get Timeworn Artifacts and Raw Emotions
!faq dyeicons
Kat with the more complete answer^
last field note I need comes from Dalriada 😭
I got that a couple weeks ago
Then went to cll and got the same note from there immediately afterwards
If you catch my meaning
Menenius being stingy on his second note and I'm too small brain for the duel
I still need dabog and sar from bsf tho
my last notes I needed were 38 and 45
38 comes from An End to Atrocities, which leads into Never Cry Wolf, which opens up the Menenius duel in Zadnor
which is the only reason I ever considered the duel in the first place
but like
I have six brain cells and they make up a jello of a brain that's so smooth any knowledge slides right off
You can spawn 38 from with the rank 1 mobs in the area
yeah the Death Machines
I have 38 now
I just need 45
(Menenius p2)
there's no way to like check a relative drop rate, can I
Drop rng is calculated server side
because you'd think after 22 runs it'd drop
No way of knowing short of hacking the servers
alrighty
I've watched four people get the note in my parties
just four
at least, those linked it in chat
there could've been more
but it's so frustrating not having that last one
Since idk where to ask this, but gonna try here and hope some1 can tell me.
SO my question is: I'm currently free trial, but I'm planning in next few days to preorder endwalker, can i play the game when i get endwalker, and can i use my character from free trial since I'm planning buying it from square enix store ?
Do you get anything for turning in HQ shit at the DoH job missions?
You would need to buy the base game as well to pull yourself out of free trial - I don't remember which it is, but you either can't access the content post-Heavensward without doing so, or can't register that content to your account without doing so
if you bought the base game for $20 USD, and then preorder Endwalker for $40, you'd get access to everything (starting when Endwalker comes out, then Stormblood and Shadowbringers would be available to you) and you'd have one month of subscription, which is bundled with purchasing the game.
