[potent lava]

Qs for elemental:
Are there still farming parties for moogle going on
And
Is turn 2 still most efficient even without blus

[limber hound]

1. If not now then later when it's evening Japan time
2. yes, but the boss can't be cheesed as hard

[ripe hound]

5.55 added quite a lot of stuff right?

[cursive ridge]

are there currently any master(specialist) crafting recipes in the game? do they usually return at the start of the expansion?

[ripe hound]

Like, it's a very small "Big Patch"

Added story... Zandor... yeah that's about it

[twilit arch]

yes, the byakko/hades weapons/diamond extreme stuff

they basically change every patch.

[cursive ridge]

do you automatically learn them when you're a specialist?

[twilit arch]

so whatever barding/orchestrion comes with the 6.0 extremes will most likely be specialist

and no, you have to have the appropriate master recipe book

[grim maple]

why were the byakko weps only introduced in 5.5

i dont get how they schedule stuff

[cursive ridge]

how do they look in the crafting log?

what am i looking for

[obsidian patio]

The EX primal crafted weapons are very sporadic

[cursive ridge]

oh found one

[twilit arch]

They state in the characteristics section

[cursive ridge]

i was expecting an icon or something

[obsidian patio]

Like how they’re doing Crafted Hades weapons, a current expansion extreme, before we got Crafted Susano

And Crafted Zurvan took a long while to add

[limber hound]

I'm awaiting crafted sosex

[twilit arch]

I assume there's no icon for it since as i said, they change every patch

[limber hound]

[twilit arch]

easier to just remove the characteristics section prob 🤷‍♂️

[cursive ridge]

and the old ones become generic?

[twilit arch]

yes

[limber hound]

When did they add crafted tsukuyomi tho

[cursive ridge]

good to know thanks

[twilit arch]

5.3 for tsukuyomi

[cursive ridge]

also

[limber hound]

oh dear

[cursive ridge]

why is there a level 80 recipe in master(6)

[twilit arch]

there's pretty much no real rhyme or reason for the crafted extreme weapons being added

[obsidian patio]

They do that for fresh expansion master stuff

Since the master books for that expansion aren’t in yet

[cursive ridge]

hm ok

[twilit arch]

master recipes won't be in until .05

so haveta add the .0 extreme trials to what is already in

less.. "have to" and more how it works since the .05 brings the crafted gear for that tier

[warped nest]

Correct me if I am wrong, didn't the lvl 70 Shadowbringers gatherer resources also shows up on the Stormblood list too? In the UI

[near rover]

How do I be a good tank?

[hasty musk]

keep aggro, use your mitigation

[cursive ridge]

learning and practice

[lethal mist]

Oh that parts obvious, but I keep Captain for the one I've already finished (Twin Adder) and start from scratch for the other ones, right?

[hasty musk]

turn the boss around and away from your party

that's about it

[lethal mist]

Cool that squadron comes with, that's one less thing to care about!

[warped nest]

Use your defensive ability at higher health, this gives your "more" health, and the enemies would need to work harder to actually kill you

[grim maple]

damnn i see , guess part of the fun is anticipation tho

the tsukuyomi axe is beautiful i need more like that

[warped nest]

In dungeons, group of enemies are more dangerous than a single boss

So don't skim on using defensive cooldown for them

[cursive ridge]

expect to do mistakes first time around, that's part of learning

[warped nest]

That

I really want to emphasize my point on using defensive at higher health

[cursive ridge]

i don't think it's that big of a deal

a healer can bring you up in like 2 GCDs

[near rover]

But do you like intentionally hold reprisal until the boss is doing an AoE

[warped nest]

Aside from your invuln skill, other defensive cooldown aren't meant to be your "oh shit, I will die in 3s, I need more defense now"

[limber hound]

Dungeon boss AoEs aren't really anything I can't top up with a single gcd + ogcd

[grim maple]

reprisal is on a short enough cooldown to where id say that doesnt matter much but it certainly helps in raidwides

[warped nest]

When your health is dangerously low, taking 25 percent less damage doesn't matter much if any damage can whack you dead

[cursive ridge]

it's hard to know beforehand when you want to use defensives when you're running stuff blind

you will learn when to on repeated runs

[cursive ridge]

for raids, yes, for dungeons, reprisal is better used as your personal defensive on big trash pulls

[grim maple]

^^

[limber hound]

10% on a dungeon boss is like one tick of a HoT

[grim maple]

its not a single target so taking 10% less damage from every trash mob adds up

[warped nest]

In the context of dungeons, you can just treat all your defensive cooldown the same

[limber hound]

10% on a raid boss can actually be life-saving

I think

[warped nest]

In raids, you'd need to be more purposeful with what to use when

[cursive ridge]

also Arm's Reach is secretly very powerful for large trash packs

[warped nest]

Yeah, the slow debuff

[cursive ridge]

gives your healer a lot more time to react

[warped nest]

Is very good

Slow is effectively, the enemies deal less damage in the same time frame

[grim maple]

yea i regret not using arms length beforehand cause people often just see it for its knockback immunity

[warped nest]

Or you take less damage in the same time frame

However you want to see it

[limber hound]

I keep forgetting Arm's Length has the debuff

[warped nest]

Only for tanks, I believe?

[cursive ridge]

it's essentially your second 15s rampart

[limber hound]

I should check if melee DPS also get the slow component

[cursive ridge]

they do

but they dont get hit

so no slow

[warped nest]

Yeah, they do

Making it slightly more advanced, enemies dying faster also means you take less damage

Serving this purpose

[covert patio]

Is the sever down?

[flat stream]

Is there maintenance right now? I just got kicked out and can't reconnect.

[covert patio]

I just got disconnected

[warped nest]

You would start to think about, hey, if the healer doesn't need to heal me, then they can do more damage

[flat stream]

Primal?

[covert patio]

[amber kayak]

[lavish python]

[flat stream]

It's 4:13pm in Japan at least.

[worn crag]

All of the NA data centers are down

[flat stream]

So people are awake to freak out accordingly.

[ripe hound]

FFXIV: A Realm Exploded

[ripe hound]

Weird, my world didn’t even have a queue...

[mossy field]

blizzard attacking SE

[wispy niche]

1k queue xd

[flat stream]

Haha I was in the process of working glams when I got DC'd!

[lavish python]

when did servers crash? how long ago

[ripe hound]

Nope I just didn’t got into the queue

Not sure, I was watching Kill Chaos a second ago

[mossy field]

10 mins ago

[ripe hound]

And just got a random DC

[lavish python]

ok, i think servers will be up in 30-45 at latest

[amber kayak]

my dps is actually higher when i wear my fave glam

[flat stream]

Back in queue.

I'm very good at glams.

I'm way better at dressing up than I am at playing the game.

[amber kayak]

i feel attacked

[flat stream]

DM me your best glam.

[ripe hound]

Seems like I can’t reach the lobby server

Looks dead

[hollow kraken]

Friend sent me this image and I just thought it was really funny

[waxen sky]

the true endgame man, fashion fantasy

[limber hound]

The one true endgame

A raider can deck themselves out in max ilvl gear

[flat stream]

Should we all head to #glamour-discussion and just post fun glams until the servers come back?

[mossy field]

at least this happened b4 EW. imagine this happening like 1-2 hours into early access

[limber hound]

A fashionista can do so while looking spiffy

[mossy field]

they have time to fix it

[limber hound]

probs, I haven't made anything new tho

[flat stream]

I'm over there. POST YOUR GLAMS.

[leaden ginkgo]

i'm sad, i wish i could get back into eureka

[waxen sky]

here i am thinking my bad shiva pun made the server cold enough to be down lol, was in her EX stage

[mortal forge]

bruh this is scary, im online (famfrit) but everywhere is empty af

just a few people

[waxen sky]

[wispy niche]

[junior walrus]

Is the server outage bc of congestion or something else?

[normal sand]

ddos probably

[junior walrus]

ddos?

[normal sand]

people attacking the server or something

[jade quartz]

Dedicated Denial of Service attack

[junior walrus]

oh

but why though

[jade quartz]

i.e. someone deliberately setting up bots to flood the servers with requests

[heady knot]

978 in queue wtf in jenova rn

[junior walrus]

lodestone is down too??

[minor fulcrum]

Probably upset that ea isnt out yet

[normal sand]

Zalera

[jade quartz]

eh

nah

If this is DDoS

probably just taking advantage of the current popularity and publicity to pull a big trick

script kiddies use situations like this to get noticed and to prove they can pull it off

[minor fulcrum]

At least it's not anthem ddosing themselves

[jade quartz]

so people might recruit them for other purposes

[sharp forge]

the lodestone says they planned for it and its a isp thing

they put a post like 3 hours ago about it so hmm

idk lol

i big dumb :D

[solemn jewel]

isnt that post about the issues they had last night

[barren granite]

[Date & Time]
From Nov. 21, 2021 8:28 a.m. to 8:45 a.m. (PST)

this was all a ploy

by square enix to make me look dumb

:(

I can do that myself tyvm smh

[ripe hound]

Well it still can happen during EW

[mossy field]

dont even joke

EW. smother than ShB pls

[jade quartz]

ShB was smooth AF

[heady knot]

guys this is to practice your queue skill

[mossy field]

exactly

[ripe hound]

I still miss my Raubhan (Savage)

[mossy field]

i did so much DoL gathering that day

[normal sand]

How do you unlock this quest?

I completed a city fallen already

[meager sigil]

With maxed out ShB gear, it's pretty easy to solo farm HW extremes, right?

[warped nest]

Seeing that it is listed as 4.3

Perhaps you need to do more MSQ?

[normal sand]

I'm at 5.5

[warped nest]

Just a guess, btw, I have no idea

[normal sand]

already done

[warped nest]

For some yes, for others, I'd still recommend getting a small group together to make it goes faster

[solemn jewel]

are u on the prima vista

[meager sigil]

Got cha.

[forest goblet]

this place for tech support with the game too?

[normal sand]

Yea, i even checked outside the tower, and nothing.

[solemn jewel]

Before u ask, if u got login issues, thats the game rn

[forest goblet]

wait.. I see the tech channel now.. lool

nah, its with my controller

[solemn jewel]

Check ur journal again maybe u started it already

or didnt finish the other

[normal sand]

Yea i've done it

nvm im dumb asf

[stone cosmos]

Ahhhh, sitting there sowing clothes for hours on end

[west parrot]

Are sage and reaper going to start at lvl80 or lvl70?

[meager sigil]

What are the odds of getting 3 lines in Wonderous Tails?

[meager sigil]

I believe they start at 70.

[faint flare]

70

They're always 20 levels under the cap

[west parrot]

... I need to save up for scaevan gear T_T

thank you all

[meager sigil]

Except for Heavensward, which is the only expansion which breaks every norm in terms of its jobs.

[faint flare]

Cause it was the first

[meager sigil]

Doesn't start in one of the three ARR cities
Starts at level 30, which is 30 below the cap instead of the usual 20
Doesn't start at the level required to start the job questline

I mean, yeah it was the first.

So no biggie.

[ripe hound]

Is there a way to copy PVP hotbars?

Copy PVP hotbar of one job to another

I think there is a macro for it?

Anyone on Elemental wanna carry me through Whorleater (Extreme)

[minor fulcrum]

Should be the same as normal hotbars just with /pvphotbar copy instead

/pvphotbar copy pld 1 gnb 1
For example maybe?

[ripe hound]

Thanks Fox!

I'll try it out!

[minor fulcrum]

[ripe hound]

https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/text_command/c1384ef838d/

Yeah should be this

[hushed pewter]

hey everyone

i have a question its been a while i played FF XIV so i can't remember my data anymore to log in can some1 help me with this? what i have to do to get it back.

[cursive ridge]

i sometimes get +2 from Pick Clean and sometimes +3, on the same nodes. is it random?

[minor fulcrum]

!action Pick Clean

[zinc orbit]

**Pick Clean** : lvl 77 MIN (250 GP) (0.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Reduces the chance of obtaining HQ items to 0% but increases item yield by up to three. Number determined by your perception rating.
Does not increase item yield if all gathering node items start at 0%.

Powered by XIVAPI

[minor fulcrum]

Perception

Your stats may be too low to get +3

[cursive ridge]

perception doesn't change from node to node

[minor fulcrum]

It does per item though

[cursive ridge]

same node, same item, same gear, same buffs, same everything

[minor fulcrum]

Hmm

I know some nodes have different baselines for bonuses

Some will give more gathers and some give yield bonus

[faint flare]

3. How does Pick Clean work?

Based on your perception and the item you're gathering, you will gain up to +2 on a node, with +3 being a random chance that can occur.

[cursive ridge]

strange that the +3 part is so random

[minor fulcrum]

Hmm

[faint flare]

Just rng bonus

[minor fulcrum]

Gotta love tooltips that are worthless right

[stone cosmos]

God, is sowing in this game the quick solution to afk gaming? lol

[cursive ridge]

sowing? as in, planting stuff in the ground?

[stone cosmos]

Whoops sewing

[cursive ridge]

i'm afraid i still have no idea what do you mean

[stone cosmos]

Uhhh "weaving"

[cursive ridge]

crafting stuff from cloth? what does it have to do with afk gaming?

[stone cosmos]

Don't you just let it auto synthesize like 99 resources?

[faint flare]

Yes but you don't use it for proper crafting

[cursive ridge]

you shouldn't use quick synthesis much

for crafting that matters, HQ is very important

[stone cosmos]

Just using it for the simple stuff

[cursive ridge]

and quick synth has a cap of 15% chance of HQ item

but for crafting stuff when you're just starting a job yeah you can use it

closer to 80 you will be using crafting macros instead

that look something like this:

/ac Manipulation <wait.2>
/ac "Waste Not II" <wait.2>
/ac "Preparatory Touch" <wait.3>
/ac "Preparatory Touch" <wait.3>
/ac "Byregot's Blessing" <wait.3>
/ac "Groundwork" <wait.3>
/ac "Groundwork" <wait.3>```

[minor fulcrum]

Quick synth is fine if you're doing low level crafts that dont need hq intermediate mats to hq

[stone cosmos]

It's really simple stuff, like lvl 10-15

[cursive ridge]

yeah that's fine

[minor fulcrum]

Yeah, that's fine, past 50 ill advised unless you just dont care about the 4x bonus for hq

Or whatever it is

[leaden ginkgo]

The extreme where you get the dyable Artifact job gears from Shadowbringer is from Bozja right?.

[honest anvil]

yes

[solemn jewel]

Yes, but very early

[faint flare]

It's unlocked during its story

[cursive ridge]

bozja is not a trial, it's a separate zone

[solemn jewel]

You unlock it before u even go into the Bozjan Front

[leaden ginkgo]

Ok ok thanks need to follow the Bozjan questline then.

[coarse meadow]

From 70 to 71. Is hoh the best after roulette and dailies?

[solemn jewel]

pixie quests

[minor fulcrum]

Hoh is awful

[silver ruin]

hoh is for 61-70

just do 69 dungeon

[minor fulcrum]

It gives you maybe 100k max past 70

[solemn jewel]

ur best bet is pixie quest, roulettes and if its not enough, 69 dungeons

[minor fulcrum]

Khloe book + challenges btw

[coarse meadow]

Ok ty

[copper sonnet]

I've been wondering about ways to make FFXIV look better graphically and thought of GShade. Does anyone here actually think it makes it look better? All I've seen is basically just people changing the saturation of the colours.

[hasty musk]

there are several dozen options that do make the game look better

[solemn jewel]

Well thats what it does. Its post-processing of the lighting and many ppl dont like the way ffxiv isnt really saturated

[copper sonnet]

I see. Guess it's not for me then. Changing the saturation and lighting does not really change the graphical quality in any noticeable way in my opinion.

[solemn jewel]

You can try it out and tinker with it

[rigid kite]

is this a macro? how do I make this?

[faint flare]

Auto translate

Press tab when typing

To get the arrows

[quaint pivot]

as a NA player that works night, is the lag durable for JP servers, if i want a more active data center at this time?

[faint flare]

They'll appear in whatever language the person's client is in

[leaden ginkgo]

What's the best way to do the materia step in ARR relic?

[leaden ginkgo]

You can do most of the content in this game with 250ms, but forget ultimate raiding

[karmic niche]

weird my client giving me connection error ._.

[heady flare]

you only need to worry about lag if you plan on raiding

[leaden ginkgo]

And certain savage fights are harder, but most are fine

You will need to premove for a lot of mechanics though

[heady flare]

though you might be better off playing on an OCE World when that launches

[karmic niche]

how the heck you get 250?

are you in NZ?

[leaden ginkgo]

By playing in a region that isnt close to yours

[heady flare]

I also work overnight tho and I dont think the game is so dead at night that you cant progress in the MSQ. the thing you have issues with is optional content like the side Trials and Normal Raids

[karmic niche]

wth ._.

[quaint pivot]

like pvp and that is dead at this time in my data center lol

[heady flare]

the game is havign issues

[leaden ginkgo]

How many materia of each stat can I insert in the ARR relic?

[karmic niche]

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

now what i play...

halo? i ask at that game

[faint flare]

[junior walrus]

whats the ost that plays in the upper rung after ||we infiltrate eulmore|| 5.0 spoilers

[karmic niche]

i just got home and want to play some ff14 but ff14 said no

[heady flare]

the thing they posted said it was internet issues but its probably a DDoS

[karmic niche]

story of my life

[heady flare]

the game tends to get DDOS'd a lot around big updates

[minor fulcrum]

Both

Hq doubles the rewards

[spare scroll]

yes, but it's somewhat unpleasant at times

I've done ultimates with people who have 2-300 ping and they generally do fine, but they sometimes get caught by crappy snapshots and generally have less leniency on moving out of aoes if they mess up slightly- savage is generally slower so you shouldn't have as much of an issue if you're just doing that

expect to have to use xivalexander or noclippy for a bearable playing experience if your class involves any amount of dual weaving though

[steel canopy]

Question for wonderous tails: if i don't complete a journal by the time a new one comes, does that mean I can't complete the journal and need to get a new one?

[quaint pivot]

i keep that all in mind, really consider the move to EU/JP because of the time i get to play on has very very limited stuff to do

[limber hound]

nah, the journal lasts for two weeks beginning from the weekly reset

[faint flare]

You can only hold one journal at a time. Having a previous weeks journal doesn't stop you getting the current week

Provided you turn it in first

That's how people get a immediate level on endwalker lauch

[hasty musk]

you have 1 week after the due date to turn it in

after that you can't turn it in for rewards anymore

[glass oxide]

Did the preorder for EW end?

[faint flare]

No

[junior tundra]

my gatherer is level 70 what gear do i get with the yellow scrips

[coarse meadow]

I need to start script farming in the firmament. What do I need? Do I need to max out my equipment on both doh and dol?

[faint flare]

No

It helps to gather more/make stuff faster

Just go gather and make the highest stuff you can

[pallid hearth]

At this point, Midan, Gordian and Alexandrian part are just for glamour right?

[faint flare]

Yes

[pallid hearth]

Hmm not one of them looks good anyway. Time to discard all of those

Thanks~

[faint flare]

Can just unsync savage for the dyeable versions

[formal condor]

gordian has good boots for me :

[limber hound]

Not solo, I presume

[faint flare]

Some are soloable

All but A4 and 8

[limber hound]

I use the gordias chest and midas visor thing myself

[faint flare]

For obvious reasons

[limber hound]

Is a7s one of the more un-soloable ones

[pallid hearth]

Hmmm I'll go hunt for them again when needed. I need some inventory space XD

[limber hound]

I might want the pants

[faint flare]

7s is doable iirc

Nothing super stopping it

[limber hound]

Assuming BiS I guess

[modest igloo]

nah that was soloable in like 470 gear

[limber hound]

I couldn't solo Ifrit EX in 470s

As DRG

[pallid hearth]

Also my friend told me to not go for BiS at this time since EW is coming soon so it would be a waste to go for BiS now

[faint flare]

Not necessarily

It's basically levelling gear

[lethal mist]

Got all the items for fashion report this week. Some things are Striking specific (PUG, MNK, SAM) so I assume I go into my Glamour dresser, set everything up, apply the glamour plate and then present myself?

[limber hound]

Just take what you can get

[faint flare]

Equip or glamour them

Game doesn't care

Both work

[solemn jewel]

you cant glam striking stuff on a class that doesnt use striking just fyi

[lethal mist]

Yeah but I can't equip OR glamour class specific gear except for that class. and neither PUG/MNK/SAM is leveled so I gotta glamour plate them, no?

[faint flare]

Plates won't work

It still follows the glamour rules

[visual sandal]

should SAM be putting up shifu/jinpu before AoEing

[lethal mist]

Ah so I glamour them one by one then?

[faint flare]

Plates are just templates

For mass glamour

[solemn jewel]

You cannot glam striking stuff on if ur not a striking class

[visual sandal]

you could meikyo after those two buffs into mangetsu/oka too, yes yes?

[faint flare]

Yes, can do it as they pull

Then Meikyo for fast rapid tenkas

[visual sandal]

yeah ive been doing that

[lethal mist]

If I want to turn my pants into another type AND apply dye, which order do I do it? First the type, then dye?

[modest igloo]

ye

[lethal mist]

Ok thanks

[modest igloo]

changing the item makes it a brand new-item, so it loses materia and dye

[lethal mist]

Ok well shit: Unable to apply glamour. Base IL cannot be lower. So I can't get 100 points in this weeks fashion report cause I haven't leveled a specific set of classes?

[cursive ridge]

are the lvl 80 job sets reobtainable for free if you delete them?

[faint flare]

Yes

Just go back to Grendolt

[cursive ridge]

cool

[modest igloo]

for this week yes, but you always get the full mgp reward, so you could just wait for next week for better chance at the title

[junior walrus]

Where can I get ilvl 415 gear? i dont want to be undergeared as a healer

[faint flare]

Lv77+ dungeons

[junior walrus]

so Malikah grind?

[heavy mica]

what are some rare accursed hand loots that sell for good gil

[faint flare]

Yes, If you're not 80 yet for your job gear

[faint flare]

Only the mount from 150+

[junior walrus]

im lvl79 but msq is lvl78

[heavy mica]

ah ok, ty

[faint flare]

Just keep doing story then and take the gear given

[junior walrus]

aight then

ty

oh wait, do i unlock anything from doing my role quest besides af gear?

[faint flare]

The ability to finish the story

And a catch up quest from your old job trainers

Completing all 4 chains unlocks an additional heavy lore side quest

[junior walrus]

okay then

[willow sandal]

what is that catch up quest?

what does it do

[faint flare]

Just go hang out with your trainer

See how theyre doing

Get a title and materia

Maybe a tiny bit of lore about a thing

[willow sandal]

oh I think I've done it

[faint flare]

It's a yellow quest and not tracked on the Msq tracker

[junior walrus]

no wonder

welp

also do i have to meld materia as soon as i get lvl80?

[slate arrow]

Nope

[faint flare]

No

[slate arrow]

Materia isn't required but it's nice to have

especially in content which doesn't sync you, namely extreme and Savage contents

[lethal mist]

https://external-preview.redd.it/wHjqxPZ3lRrNC_hwygN_URbJlrw-iCr46y-9J2hmC2g.png?auto=webp&s=aeb4fbd889ba14779c43b525e09fb8f1f7236aad

Wait this shows ".... of Healing" in all columns basically so I could technically do 100 points with healer? Although not sure if the "Ghost Barque Armguards of Healing" are dye-able so maybe not anyway?

[willow sandal]

btw, how is materia scaled?
does it get shrunk to a lower materia level or just removed completely?

[hasty musk]

removed completely

[willow sandal]

what's the hardest raid content that was done solo?

[slate arrow]

Materia is not accounted for at all

[willow sandal]

can you do stormblood trials solo?

[hasty musk]

no

[faint flare]

Highest level content soloed was Lakshami

[slate arrow]

not many

susano requires two players because of the party mechanic

And everything else requires at least two players but preferably more

[willow sandal]

yeah I couldn't kill Zurvan because you need 4 people to soak

[faint flare]

Zurvan is doable iirc.. Remember seeing one video of it

[willow sandal]

yeah I think you can just kill him faster with better gear than mine

[honest anvil]

ye PLD/ WAR solo-ed

those 2 solo-ed all HW stuff iirc

[willow sandal]

but all this will shake up with 6.0 anyway 🙂

[willow sandal]

even extreme Bismarck?

[faint flare]

That's easy as fuck

All you need is just burst one snake fast

And anyone can solo it

[willow sandal]

oh, I'll try it then

[honest anvil]

ye if you cant burst then stay alive and kill slower

[lament pilot]

After hitting Lv80 on retainers, what's the best type of venture to run?

[dim hull]

I just realised something, I'm a relatively new player (level62) who has not bothered with Extreme Trials yet
But I need to learn and clear at least one if I want to capitalize on Daily Roulette Extreme right?
So which one should I do, is there an order I have to clear them in or is there an easy one I can pick, and just clear and do it once per day for rewards?

[faint flare]

There is no extreme roulette

[lament pilot]

you can get clears for extremes unsynched with higher levels

[honest anvil]

if i dont need anything specific, i just send then on quick ventures to gamble

[lament pilot]

quick ventures can give valuable things?

[faint flare]

Extremes are only in mentor roulette and L.O.L mentor roulette

[honest anvil]

minions, jet black dye, some 1m glams..

[lament pilot]

I did the 18 hour ventures to level up all the way

[dim hull]

oh ok so I can't even get Extreme roulette even if I cleared one rn? no need to clear any rn?

[faint flare]

Nope

They're not in any roulette that's worth anything

High end content are generally not in roulettes anyway

Cause that's just fucking torture

[dim hull]

Oh I must've confused Extreme Roulette with Duty Roulette Expert... I just looked it up, I can't even do that until I completed SHB (and later EW) right?

[faint flare]

Expert in just the 2 newest dungeons

[slate arrow]

Extremes have mechanics which are usually mandatory when synced

That or they're slightly obscure and will require multiple pulls with coordination to clear

Basically don't expect to facepull and succed with sheer healer grit

[willow sandal]

ultimate roulette

they should do it on april 1st

[dim hull]

wait so how do I unlock Expert Roulette, do I need to just hit level80 or would I need to have finished post-SHB?

[faint flare]

Unlock the two newest dungeons they're added

Which is in post shadowbringers story

Currently

[dim hull]

ok all good then, yeah i thought Extreme Trial Roulette sounded strange in theory when I thought about it, I guess it doesn't exist lol

[faint flare]

Both

It locks in when you que

And also checks when you enter

If you que when it shows your role you'll get it

[mortal void]

can someone help me do the Fate Special Tasaque Force in Dravania Forelands?

[honest anvil]

ask your fc, shout in the area might be faster

[mortal void]

did it empty in both

[honest anvil]

ye, it’s not a sought after FATE

How do you do main quest scenario if you are the only person in a group?

[honest anvil]

Duty finder?

[stone cosmos]

Wuts that

[faint flare]

Instance matching

It's how you que and enter anything

[solemn jewel]

Default key should be U i think. It opens the Dutyfinder and you can choose which duty you want to q for

in ur case probably Sastasha

[stone cosmos]

:B In this case there's no one (as of now)

prolly cause it's 2 in the morning -_-

[honest anvil]

!faq dflanguage

Why does it constantly take hours for my queue to pop

If you're on the EU or JP servers, it might be prudent to use the ⚙️ to change your duty finder settings to allow more players speaking different languages to be matched with you!

hi guys where can i buy some lvl 80 430 gears ? that isn't too much of money tho

[zinc orbit]

Role Quests FAQ

What are Role Quests?

Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.

At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.

I can't find where I left off!

No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.
Tank Role Quests
Healer Role Quests
Physical DPS Role Quests
Magical DPS Role Quests

[modest igloo]

do that and you get free 430 gear

[coarse lotus]

wait i did that u mean the role quest in Crystarium ?

and ty for the fast answer

[modest igloo]

ye after that you could just grab some exarchic accesories

need ilvl 500 for later SHB content anyways

[coarse lotus]

yee

i didnt get nothing from the dude xD

this dude lmao

i finished the quest

that's the tank role quest

[solemn jewel]

Go to the ondo cups

You had to bring the Smith there a crystal

[iron yarrow]

how do you get the armor sets that are commonly called "job gear"? like zepla showed an ARR set in her 90 job gear ranked video, but im not sure where to get these sets

[coarse lotus]

ondo cups ? ok

[solemn jewel]

He also has the gear

[solemn jewel]

Capstone job quests

[coarse lotus]

this guy ?

[solemn jewel]

No

[coarse lotus]

[warm snow]

You'll meet the npc during msq

You give him a crystal from the role quests

[solemn jewel]

You did the msq right? You had to go to a smith to bring them one of the crystals

[solemn jewel]

They're past that part

[coarse lotus]

i did

im in 5.1 quest

[solemn jewel]

Ye go there to that person

Hes got the gear

[coarse lotus]

where is his location ? tho

[solemn jewel]

Right of the ondo cups

[coarse lotus]

u mean the man ?

i did that

[warm snow]

There's only one man in the entire tempest

[coarse lotus]

buy everything but i still dont have 430 ?

yes i did

https://youtu.be/YUjLoF2NrkU?t=151 i did that part

[warm snow]

Bruh wtf is this bloat

430 is your starter level 80 gear

If you already have it just spend your allegories on 490 gear

[warm snow]

Yeah, you're at just finished 5.0 gear levels

[coarse lotus]

i can't go in the dungeon

msq dungeon

need 430

[warm snow]

So you should at least have enough allegories from first time clears to go buy some 490 accessories

[faint flare]

Eden and nier raids

While buying gear with tomes

[coarse lotus]

cant wait for nier raids tho

[coarse lotus]

where ?

[faint flare]

Past the main expansion story, you're on your own for gear

[warm snow]

Eulmore

All the tome exchanges is eulmore

Once you're in current patches you have to work for gear

No more catchup freebies

[coarse lotus]

im there where can i buy

[faint flare]

Tomestone vendor

Up the stairs

Line of 5 npcs

[coarse lotus]

idk man im up stairs but i just can talk to them

can't talk to all of them

[faint flare]

Wrong ones

Up the stairs

South West

[coarse lotus]

i need some shit for that man

i dont understand anything

[faint flare]

Aymark

See it's title

TOME VENDOR

You'll spend your allegory and Revelation there you get from doing 80 content and roulettes as 80

[coarse lotus]

i need stones for that

[faint flare]

And you'll get them.by doing content

Do Eden and nier raids for gear

[warm snow]

There's a dungeon unlock here

And one in crystarium

Plenty of other shit to do for gear man

[coarse lotus]

[leaden ginkgo]

[barren granite]

whats best item stat for BLU ?

[modest igloo]

400

[barren granite]

i mean spell speed or CH ?

[modest igloo]

and for tank/healer

CRIT is decent for dps but i prefer SPS myself

[barren granite]

k

ty

[astral bolt]

is there an exact memory droprate chance for PotD?

[modest igloo]

100% after floor 150

before that RNG

can't datamine for droprates in FFXIV

[astral bolt]

is there a higher chance to drop in floor 140 compared to floor 10?

[modest igloo]

ye

at 50 it feels like 30%

higher you go higher the chance is

[fast talon]

so first time entering a new expansion, how early do expansion codes usually come out if you pre-ordered from the SE store?

[silver ruin]

email

prob during early access

[fast talon]

okay, thanks

just gotta keep an eye out for that email then i suppose

[silver ruin]

i might be thinking of something else, its either email or you can see it under the account history under the SE purchase site like where you found the early access code

its one of the two

[faint flare]

They make a news post about it when it's time to enter it all iirc

[uncut quarry]

are tomes of lore the only way to get the MGP plat card?

[faint flare]

They're occasionally on Wonderous Tails as a reward

Usually for 3 lines

[dim hull]

What's the keyword to buy for DRG augmented Shire (level60) tome accessories?

Pankratiast?

[faint flare]

Yes

That's how much the duty gives you in total

Only 150

[barren granite]

can i solo arum vale to learn glower ? or it need party ?

[faint flare]

You can

Glower and mind blast are both guaranteed regardless

[barren granite]

sweet ty

[obsidian patio]

[pure maple]

Do all (old) accounts automatically have the base MSQ/free trial to lv50 unlocked, or do I need to make a new account?

[wintry chasm]

New account

Free trials don't update like that

Also free trial is to the end of HW now which is lvl 60

[midnight grotto]

at what level can you get to summon ur minion?

[pure maple]

I see, ty 🙂 How long does the free trial last? I have an account I made a few months ago but I want to make a new character

[wintry chasm]

Any level

You just need a minion @midnight grotto

[midnight grotto]

o okay

how do you set it up

[wintry chasm]

If you have the minion in your inventory

Use it and that adds it to your collection

[solemn jewel]

Its not timed, its until u buy the game

[wintry chasm]

Then go to minion guide in the character menu section to go to your collection and pick it there

[wintry chasm]

Yeah literally unlimited time up to the end of the first expansion Heavenward

[pure maple]

perfect thanks 🙂

[midnight grotto]

minion guide?

[wintry chasm]

Ye

[pure maple]

is the best way to go about it to do the free trial until lv60, then buy the complete edition with all the expansions at lv60 to progress? or buy the game sooner

[wintry chasm]

Ehhh

It's kinda up to you and what you value most

If you really wanna play the Stormblood jobs when you hit 50 for just a single example

[pure maple]

oh yeah, lv50 then since I want to play samurai

[wintry chasm]

Doing it when you hit 60 is the latest I'd recommend doing it just so you don't lose xp

[pure maple]

but theres no benefit from level 1 right?

[solemn jewel]

u can do social stuff

for many thats a major drawback of the trial

[sleek needle]

And matketboard

[wintry chasm]

Outside of being able to START as the Shadowbringer races (you get a free race change after the main base game story anyway) only what the other two said here

[pure maple]

is this like the auction house?

[solemn jewel]

kinda

[sleek needle]

Kinda, but not an auction

[wintry chasm]

As far as it's a player to player selling feature

[sleek needle]

Just listings

[pure maple]

cool ty

though since I'm guessing the 30 day free sub period starts as soon as I buy the complete edition, I may as well just make the most of it and get it later

[solemn jewel]

its as soon as u activate the code

i'd honestly say play until EW drops and then buy complete.

[sleek needle]

Although endwalker drops in 2 weeks ish

So best to wait to buy complete/expansions

[pure maple]

oh will the new expansion be in the complete edition?

[solemn jewel]

after its release yes

[pure maple]

it'd be amazing if so

wow ok I'll do that then thanks!

[leaden ginkgo]

for fisher leveling just spam doing ocean fishing but
what is the roations just use the bait in chat and cast and hook thats it ?

[sleek needle]

Can also buy starter + endwalker pre-order now, which will give you shb & sb once endwalker gets releases

If you wanted the free trial restrictions gone

[pure maple]

not sure what shb & sb is, but if its cheaper to get the complete edition (which includes endwalker) in 2 weeks' time I'd much rather do that

[faint flare]

Stormblood and shadowbringers

[pure maple]

aha

[faint flare]

Starter edition + endwalker is the same price as complete edition after endwalker

Complete edition is just everything in one package

For the current time

It will be updated to include endwalker on the 7th

If you want the xp earrings you'll want starter + endwalker preorder

[pure maple]

ohh because the endwalker pre-order gives the other expansions too?

Makes sense

[faint flare]

They always bundle old expansions into the new

[pure maple]

are the xp earrings worth it?

[faint flare]

Cause it's linear

They're 30%

For 80 and under

For all mob kills

It's noticeable

[pure maple]

and there's no other way to get those earrings?

[faint flare]

Nope

[sleek needle]

They're very good if you're planning on lvling alt jobs, but definitely not a necessity

[faint flare]

Preorder exclusive

Always a new preorder earring every expansion launch

There's a weaker version for 71-80 only with 10% bonus

[pure maple]

its tempting then, i can also just buy the starter edition now and wait until just before release to make sure I enjoy the game before pre-ordering right?

I'll probably do that

[solemn jewel]

Or just play the trial first

[sleek needle]

!faq freetrial

[zinc orbit]

Free Trial Download and Limitations

Click Here to download the Free Trial

Click Here to see the Free Trial limitations

[sleek needle]

2nd link has the restrictions

[pure maple]

oh yea, trial then starter then preorder?

[sleek needle]

Apart from that free trial and starter is literally same game

[faint flare]

Trial until like the 5th then starter and preorder

So you can milk the trial

Before starting sub

[sleek needle]

Can you buy pre-order after early access started?

[faint flare]

You can preorder until the game launches

[sleek needle]

Cool

[pure maple]

awesome, ty for all the help lovely people

[sleek needle]

If you are playing through steam, make sure you buy it through steam

Because you can't swap steam > stand-alone

Other way is fine tho (before you bought the game that is)

[pure maple]

I don't like using steam for games with a standalone client option 😮

but ty for the heads up

this time I'll actually try to pay attention to the story

[solemn jewel]

Its worth it

funnily enough, when u buy from steam u still play thru the ffxiv launcher

[junior walrus]

i keep forgetting but what does piety do again

my role quest gives me materia at lvl80

[agile laurel]

Someone remind me at what story point ||Gosetsu and Yotsuyu are revealed to have survived?|| Can't remember, and can't find it either (stormblood spoilers)

[obsidian patio]

Increases how much MP you generate per 3 seconds in combat

[faint flare]

Better passive Mp regen

[junior walrus]

should i pick that one for healer then?

[agile laurel]

no

[faint flare]

You only get enough piety to be comfortable

[obsidian patio]

Nah. Piety is a comfort stat

[faint flare]

The less you can get away with, the better

[junior walrus]

oh okay

[agile laurel]

healers should prioritise crit and direct hit stats

[junior walrus]

crit then gotcha

[faint flare]

Piety doesn't directly help with damage so

And damage is king

[junior walrus]

ty

[thorny yoke]

End of 4.0 I think

[open coral]

Sometime in 4.1 or 4.2 because ||Tsukuyomi|| is the final trial in 4.3

[agile laurel]

i know that but I can't find it still

[open coral]

Hang on, let me check something real quick and I'll narrow it down for you. It's at the end of the patch when you see it.

[honest anvil]

it’s end of 4.1

cause 4.2 is about finding them

[heavy wadi]

it is not the end of 4.1, it's 4.0. just looked it up and found it

[glossy forge]

When do i start Wonder tales for EW prep, tomorrow?

Tomorrow at the earliest right?

Or was it this week

[honest anvil]

||the reveal scene is the scene in Kugane where she eats that Japanese sweet treat no?||

[raven star]

||End of Stb, he's fishing||

[open coral]

No. It's ||when you see Gosetusu fishing on the island and then it pans over to her||

[hot eagle]

tomorrow in a week since early access starts on the 3rd december

[glossy forge]

Ok

So tomorrow and then the next week

[raven star]

WT last 2 weeks so yeah

[honest anvil]

now i need to watch end of 4.0 again kk

[glossy forge]

And how does beast tribe work

[green grail]

you hold tomorrow's book until early access then do one in early access for the next week

[raven star]

Do we have any news on the collectors box? Person who ordered for me is moving house soon

[glossy forge]

I can hold beast tribe quest completion until Early Access?

Then do it same day?

[raven star]

Beast tribes are daily,

[green grail]

you can but yeah

[raven star]

Only issue is the servers go down for 24 hours

[green grail]

you just grab them before maintenance

[dapper oyster]

do we have countdown for endawlker early access?

[heavy wadi]

it's !expansion

[glossy forge]

Are they worth doing for level 80s or just save for sage and reaper?

[raven star]

Level 80 is the last level they are worth doing it for

[heavy wadi]

should do for sge/rpr to get them to 71 quicker

[glossy forge]

Ok

[raven star]

Once u hit 81, beast tribes wont be worth it

[glossy forge]

Ok

[raven star]

I think ||Bozja|| will be ok till 81 as well? 🤔

[willow sandal]

why would you do that? the story gets you to levelcap anyway

and you need to do flight unlocks and stuff

[open coral]

For SGE/RPR 71-80 to do story with them.

[raven star]

I had to do MSQ roulette twice for ShB launch

[willow sandal]

oh true

[raven star]

Any way to avoid that again would be amazing

The queue was insane

I think i did 2 trust dungeons as well

[leaden ginkgo]

Character settings and client settings; when it comes to backing them up, which one of those settings holds my hotbar configuration data?

[raven star]

Right click ur name when logging in to save it

[open coral]

Wait. Why did you have to do MSQ roulette twice for ShB launch? I had to do like, two leveling roulettes for the entire 70-80 process.

[raven star]

Idk, i just remember doing msq roulette, then 2 hours later had to do it again (reset was during that 2 hours)

I did a few roulettes

[median wharf]

Buying 510 ilvl at 80 is a good idea right? can i do some high content then? max ilvl is 535 ?

[raven star]

Highest u need

and thats e12s

[open coral]

Yes, 510 will get you into any level 80 content.

[median wharf]

510 is the highest i need?

[raven star]

u need, yes

535 is just the relic weapon, highest is 530 from raids or upgraded tomestone gear

[median wharf]

How are these badass weapon called again?

oh relic weapon right?

[raven star]

yup,

Dont want to say specifics cause spoilers, but yeah xD

I just wanted to see if there was any news on the collectors box :c guess we got no news yet

[median wharf]

im still a noob

need figure ou

how can i upgrade gear more

[raven star]

Hunts or nier raid coins

[median wharf]

there are crystal slots right?

i was so intelligent and boosted my first char lmao

[raven star]

Just 2 materia slot for that

[median wharf]

1 year ago xD

[raven star]

xD

Bike gives u +1 speed till u get the first speed boost

[night sable]

Fox

only thing u can grind fo free

[median wharf]

mount grind is a thing here?

[raven star]

Its not as bad as wow,

[median wharf]

xD

[raven star]

@night sable are u free trial?

[median wharf]

i played years black desert online so im fine i guess

[warm snow]

The worse mount grind is pteranodon

Or the tank mounts

Okay, I forgot astrope

[raven star]

That will be stupid easy in 2 weeks xD

[warm snow]

Doubt it

[raven star]

Worst one imo is the 2nd S rank mount

[warm snow]

They'll probably nerf the hell out of the grade 4 craft points

[raven star]

2 buttons to fully HQ and complete a craft? It will be easy xD

[warm snow]

And/or disable trained eye for expert crafts

[raven star]

[raven willow]

been trying to download this game for 3 days now, just got to 60% and a server error came up and ive been downloading it for like 20 hours, so sick of this shit fs

just going to try the other launcher now

[night sable]

^server has been having problems these past few days

[raven star]

The servers have gone down twice over the last 2 days cause of ddos attacks

[solemn jewel]

it continues where it left off if u restart

[raven willow]

so fucking annoying

[raven star]

Its not the games fault this time xD

[raven willow]

how do i restart cause every time i restart it goes back to 0

[solemn jewel]

the bar goes back to zero but the gigabytes it already downloaded stay

[raven willow]

at this point i just want my money back & to go find another mmo to play lol

[median wharf]

GG to people who ddos FFXIV

[night sable]

[livid geyser]

[raven willow]

[raven star]

[modest igloo]

[solemn jewel]

oh i think thats after gulg...

[night sable]

Okay ill see ya there!

[raven star]

\o/

[junior walrus]

wdym

[faint flare]

Controller doesn't hold you back in any way

Alot of people prefer it

[raven star]

I've only seen people complain about 1 mech with controllers. But everyone I know is fine with it

[faint flare]

Usually typing

[raven star]

DRS gunner > turret, only thing I've seen

[faint flare]

Like targetting?

[raven star]

The gap towards the gunner, then to a turret in DRS, all the controller people i did it with couldn't do it faster enough cause of the turning

[faint flare]

Oh Side unseen

[raven star]

yeah that

[faint flare]

I never had issues with that

[night sable]

@raven star Here!

[raven willow]

sorry to bother you but could i Dm you so i can ask some questions about my issues?

[night sable]

im the one whos dancing

[faint flare]

You legit just point your camera in such a way you just press forward

[raven star]

Got it!

[faint flare]

To position youself

[raven star]

I dont have a controller so i dont know, just seen people complain about it while farming DRS xD

[solemn jewel]

I'm not great at tech support. All i can tell you is that the game saves chunks when downloading and restarts the download at the nearest chunk

[faint flare]

Those people haven't figured out the tech

[dim hull]

Is there a difference between Black Chocobo and any other mount? It was introduced in such a unique way in HW, not sure if it has unique features there or if I can just use my favourite mount

[faint flare]

It was the first flying mount

[warm snow]

Lol no

[faint flare]

Before everything could fly

[raven willow]

so like, it was at 29gb but when it closed itself & reopened its back at 0% but only 19gb, so it saved that other stuff basically?

[dim hull]

oh wow, but now all mounts are the same?

[faint flare]

Yes

[dim hull]

ok cool, and just to confirm all LoS box and hitbox are the same right regardless of mount

[solemn jewel]

Basically aye

[modest igloo]

maybe? not really something that every comes up in gameplay

the shark mount is fun to poke around in 2.0 areas

[faint flare]

Yes

[raven willow]

okie cool, dont have to pull my fucking hair out after all lol

[faint flare]

All hitbox are the same

[warm snow]

Your targettable hitbox for other players is bigger

[drowsy hornet]

one (store?)mount has the first mount speed unlock by default so it's faster before you get it regularly for all mounts.
