Materia & Melding FAQ

How do I unlock melding?

Complete Forging the Spirit (materia extract/npc melding) and Waking the Spirit (player melding) in Central Thanalan.

How can I get my gear melded?

To meld visible Materia slots a NPC melder in any major city will do (marked with a Blue Materia icon on the map). To overmeld gear you'll need to request another player to meld your gear or to do it yourself.

Why can't I meld this Materia to my stuff?

Every Tier of Materia has a minimum item level requirement that gear must meet to allow melding of that Tier. Tier 6 Materia requires an item level of 290 while Tiers 7 and 8 require an item level of 420.

Why is my meld giving +0 stats?

Every item has a maximum amount of stats that can be given through melding and the natural stats found on the gear. This can be seen at the bottom of the Materia Melding menu, as seen in the picture below.

The secondary stat with a higher number is already at the cap and cannot be further melded.

modest igloo
#

if you have rank 7 and 8 materia lying around yeah

median wharf
#

Is that the only improvement u can give gear in ffxiv ?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Outside of trading in gear for its upgraded version for tome gear

median wharf
#

hmm confusing at first

#

can i just buy rank 7 materia and put it in 510 gear?

#

worth doin that?

faint flare
#

You want 8s

#

Cause they're stronger

median wharf
#

ok than i buy 8s xD

faint flare
#

7s are for overmelding

#

With the expansion close its not that worth

#

Materia is a endgame thing for when you're doing raids

median wharf
#

okok so its my first 80 class

#

so i guess leveling jobs to 80 is important xD

#

and maybe get 510 for main

#

how much more enmity generation does tank stance grant?

faint flare
#

10x

#

It's absurd

visual sandal
#

a tank with the 50% dmg debuff from dying 2x would stuff have aggro over a dps with all their buffs on, yes?

faint flare
#

Yes

visual sandal
#

bc at some point in eden I ripped aggro in time to get tank bustered

faint flare
#

It's kinda impossible to lose aggro

#

Unless they just died and didn't voke

#

Or super ungeared

visual sandal
#

they were up for a while idk

honest anvil
#

the e12s buster targets 1st and 2nd highest enmity so maybe you were 2nd highest cause one of the tanks died or had stance off

visual sandal
#

was normal e12, not s

#

maybe first tank tried to shirk 2nd tank who didn't provoke

#

and ended up on me idk

dim hull
#

One thing I'm confused about, I watched somewhere that Flashing Red enemy skills = Interruptable, but now in this video I see mobs attack (not flashing) being stunnable, is it a difference between bosses (interruptable = flashing) and trash mobs (many skills even not flashing are interruptable)?

faint flare
faint flare
#

Ie bosses

visual sandal
#

in dohn mheg there's one fauth add

#

you can't stun his cast, but can interrupt

faint flare
#

Interrupt ALWAYS works on interruptable skills

dim hull

#

i have interupt on my hotbar just for that one stupid fuath

faint flare
#

Stun is subject to the mobs stun resistance

left whale
#

interject ftw

#

low blow is ass

faint flare
#

Moves themselves aren't stunnable

#

It's the mob

visual sandal
#

seeing stun immunity is just testing what's stunnable

faint flare
#

Itself

#

If the mob can't be stunned, you can't stun it

visual sandal
#

which means kicking everything you see

dim hull
faint flare
#

Interruptable skills can only be stopped by interrupt

#

Unless the mob itself is stunnable

visual sandal
#

seeing what can be stunned is done through testing or knowing beforehand

#

almost every trash mob is stunnable

faint flare
#

Trash mobs are generally stunnable

visual sandal
#

few bosses can be stunned, mostly in arr iirc

faint flare
#

Bosses aren't past arr

visual sandal
#

like the brayflox dragon

idk it's weird to me how you can kick ifrit and hes stunned on normal

if i preorder EW, would I still get the EXP acce even though I'll use the code after release? (still using trial, still lots to do in it, have little time to play)

drowsy hornet
#

yes, but the code expires on 31st of March 2022 so you need to use it before that

onyx talon
#

oh..what about the complete edition? same exp date?

faint flare
#

Only preorder codes expire

I'm in the same boat and wrote a ticket to ask.

faint flare

No other codes do

What's a good amount of piety to have on healers?

#

tbh I don't see much actual usage of the stat, idk if I should meld more of it or get gear w/ it

faint flare
#

It's a comfort stat

#

If you find you're running out of mana regularly, get more

visual sandal
#

hmm

#

how much is good enough, to get a scale of things

modest igloo
visual sandal
#

On astro, no

leaden ginkgo
#

noob, should i start playing on NA or wait for OCE? OCE player. worried about lack of playerbase if most australians already have thousands of hours on other datacenters and don’t want to start again on a local one.

On scholar, going low but not oom

so about ~1700 from gear itself should be fine aye

frosty badger
#

What would happen to belts if not unequipped when 6.0 is out?

faint flare
#

Become useless

leaden ginkgo
#

then i’ll start on NA and transfer when OCE is ready

#

thanks

visual sandal
#

hmmm what about spell speed then

faint flare
#

Equipped belts will go to the calamity salvager for retrival

visual sandal
#

I've got both 520 ilvl rings w/ two slots, one materia slot has deter already

faint flare
#

SCH wants like 2,42 iirc

visual sandal
#

since piety is good enough, would spell speed suffice? Already have enough for 2.42 gcd

modest igloo
frosty badger
faint flare
#

Should yes

visual sandal
#

spell speed it is then

#

on materia though

#

is direct hit doing much for healers?

faint flare
#

It's damage increase

visual sandal
#

But given how low it is from gear stats

faint flare
#

But will only work when not synced due to being materia

visual sandal
#

Is it even worth to put in DH materia?

faint flare
#

Getting some Dh when you have none is a noticeable gain

#

The first few points are worth more

frosty badger
#

Will Aetheryte Tickets become obsolete in 6.0?

faint flare
#

Due to gaining the ability to Dh and Crit dh

visual sandal
#

ehhh

faint flare
#

380 is 0

#

It's the Base of all stats

visual sandal
#

maybe I'll slap spellspeed on my rings then

#

so don't bother with DH maybe

#

given there's that little already

lethal birch
#

pretty sure dh>sps unless you dont need much sps to hit next tier

faint flare
#

Even melding abit raises dps by like 5% or more

visual sandal
#

well yes I understand the dps part

#

it's just the way I see it, there's not much to add onto already so why not add more to something else with a lot

sleek needle
faint flare
#

Cause diminishing returns and scaling is a thing

lethal birch
#

crit's the thing you dont meld if you dont have much or any of it

visual sandal
#

2.9k is too much then?

lethal birch
#

no

faint flare
#

Crit gets better the more you get

visual sandal
#

guh meld stats hurt my head

lethal birch
#

most sets stack crit bc it's better with more

#

but there are exceptions

faint flare
#

First points of Dh are extremely valuable

sleek needle
#

Building sps above what you need will just hinder you as well, not sure how much you're on and/or need but just stacking it for the sake of stacking it is not a good strategy

visual sandal
#

I can't meld crit on my rings, already fully maxed

lethal birch
#

dh then

visual sandal
#

1262 sps w/ 2.41 gcd

lethal birch
#

det if dh/crit are full

#

2.41 is fine

visual sandal
#

I just put a sps materia on either ring

#

other slot has det

honest anvil
#

not sure how serious you play but in casual content, no need to meld ~ in more serious content, dont meld .. randomly. Meld to meet specific sets or breakpoints

visual sandal
#

looking to do savages ect

#

i'm following the general idea of crit>deter>sks/sps tier then whatever else

near rover
#

What's a leafman

honest anvil
#

check out the balance discord ~ there are prog sets

#

#

!faq thebalance

zinc orbitBOT
visual sandal
#

tbh the balance gives me a bigger headache

honest anvil
#

if you’re new to savage then it’s worth considering gears with piety

#

prog parties .. die a lot

visual sandal
#

1804 then? is my current amount

#

only 2 piety materia melded

lethal birch
#

1804 is plenty, but meld more if you struggle even w/ lucid on cd

honest anvil
#

well … 1804 is good piety

visual sandal
#

I should be fine given astro is my main healer

#

800mp from cards is nice

#

I don't run close to low in normal content unless it's reviving a few times or smth else, will prob change it if I do go lower

lethal birch
#

but yeah, dont bother with sps melds unless you dont need that many to hit the next breakpoint

#

even the "fast" sets almost always have innate sps on the pieces that make them fast, with maybe a 1-2 sps melds to meet the next breakpoint

noble pasture
#

Just got to the beginning of shadowbringers, and so far I haven't had to go out of my way to get gear for msq. Does that continue through here or will I have to start actually grinding for specific gear?

lethal birch
#

msq throws gear at ya

#

but

faint flare
#

You're on your own after finishing shadowbringers

lethal birch
#

do role quests

#

post shb either gates gear progression behind grinding eden normal or dungeons, or buying gear straight up through currencies

#

5.0 pukes gear at ya though

noble pasture
#

Cool. Thanks!

lethal birch
#

@visual sandal Outside of BiS, your meld priority should be piety to comfort (if needed) > sps if you want to hit a certain GCD tier > crit > det/dh > sps. That said, the difference between meld setups is so small overall that you could opt for det over crit, or take more spell speed than usual if that's what you're more comfortable with during prog. The raw effect of the stats is quite insignificant as long as you're melding something that you're going to make use of.

#

taken from bal

#

dh generally has better returns than det, if crit is maxed

visual sandal
#

that's the general guideline I'm going off of

i'll go do more testing w/ my setups to see how it works in my style tho

more on level term than actual gil

In theory 0 gil investment

wispy copper

what level?

green grail

fisher level

#

higher level > more skills > easier to get the achievement

presumably

umbral dune

and more gp which never enough

are there any guides for it assuming I've never fished before

probably tons on google

neon sentinel
#

how to mark yourself with a number with macro ?

umbral dune
#

@wispy copper I suggest continue MSQ all the way to HW, there are skill locked behind quest, and quest are separated by expansion, you need to do at least 60-70 quest to have a decent chance

wispy copper
#

fair enough I'll do that

Rested Experience FAQ

'Why does my EXP bar have some blue or faded yellow in it?'

That's Rested Experience, which is an extra source of bonus experience shared between all of your classes. You gradually earn this while inside a sanctuary (town or area with a major aetheryte), regardless of whether you're online or not. Sanctuaries are also indicated with a crescent moon icon near your experience bar.

'How much of a boost is it?'

The most amount of rested experience you can have at once is one and a half levels of experience. That means that lower level jobs use up the rested experience faster than higher level jobs do.

Why can't I use glamour plate set to save a set

So it'll apply the gear set glamour

patent frigate
#

I used "cast glamour" on my whole armorset but now I can't save it

#

does it have to be a special type of armor?

gaunt pendant
#

Oh, your set has to be in the glamour chest to apply to a plate

#

you can't "save" manually glamoured sets, sadly

#

the closest you can get is having a gear set

#

So you'll have to visit an inn, dump the glamour stuff you want into the chest (the items you want to be part of your glamoured set), then set up a plate

How do you get the emote where you can put your hands in pocket?

what game did u buy

and where are u trying to enter it

raven willow
#

i dont think so, i bought the game on steam for 9.99 and then the dlc bundle, think the base game was like called the starter guide?

open coral
#

You bought both on Steam?

#

The Starter Edition and Shadowbringers?

raven willow
#

yes

solemn jewel

Okay

#

did u register the basegame

open coral

Did you enter the Starter Edition code first?

#

On the mogstation?

raven willow

yes and it said i already have it

i can re try rn

Can you go on the Mogstation and take a screenshot of your account status?

Where it says "Account Type" in the blue box.

#

My things all just changed atm

open coral
#

Okay. That's good. I just wanted to make sure that it was registered as Steam.

#

You should only need to register your code for Shadowbringers, then.

faint flare
#

Press thr Enter expansion code button and enter the shadowbringers code

hoary kayak
#

btw you can use windows key + shift + S to take a screenshot of your screen, faster that way thumbs_up

open coral
#

I also don't recall if the Steam launcher updates automatically to the full version when you go from trial to full game, or if there's a separate download for that.

#

Might use my phone to see if that will work

patent frigate
#

How do I un equip a glamour plate

open coral
#

Use the glamour removing prisms.

#

I forget what they're called.

patent frigate
#

I mean a set

open coral
#

You can't remove glamours as a set.

heavy wadi
#

yes you can

open coral
#

You can?

patent frigate
#

No like I don't wanna wear the set anymore I don't wanna delete it

heavy wadi
#

if you have glamour dispellers you can lol

open coral
#

Ohh

#

In the wardrobe.

#

I always forget that's there.

raven willow
#

think it worked on my phone fingers crossed

patent frigate
#

I don't want to delete it tho

open coral
#

It won't delete the plate

#

It will just remove the glamour from your current gear

boreal storm
#

If you have enough dispellers

raven willow
#

yep it worked! now i need to download another 18 gb :))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

#

i hope this game is gonna b worth it or istfg

#

thanks for the help though ^^

open coral
#

Did you not do the free trial first?

raven willow
#

i downloaded the base game then ive just bought the dlc and its downloading now

#

i didnt want to start the game cause i wanna pick viera

open coral
#

I mean, we're all here because we think it's worth it, but YMMV

raven willow
#

fingers crossed it wont take too long lol

heavy wadi
#

feels like a waste of money just for viera but it's your money shrug

hoary kayak
#

actually im playing it against my will Kapp

heavy wadi
#

when you can just use a fantasia later and race change

barren granite
#

is there a trick to learn the blu spell exuviation, ive kilt and seen it cast at least 10 times

raven willow
#

so the dlcs arent worth it then?

open coral
#

As long as you've seen it cast, you have a chance to learn it.

barren granite
#

kk ill keep at it

boreal storm
#

The next expansion is in 1.5 weeks

blissful silo
#

How do I get the fourth squadron member … I played so much before starting this quest haven’t gotten one application fir two weeks now

open coral
heavy wadi
#

next expac is due in like... a week or so

raven willow
heavy wadi
#

and it's a linear story

raven willow
blissful silo
#

I have it completed 😦 I played the game a ton off and on … no more challenges left

heavy wadi
#

point is you coulda tried the game and the first expac for free and then just race changed later instead of buying upfront when you don't know if you'll like it or not shrug

open coral
raven willow
open coral
#

But if Viera are worth the $80 + monthly sub to you, then that's fine.

raven willow
#

i work a lot, got a lot of money and never get to spend it so

blissful silo
#

What if your challenge log is completed ?

open coral
#

Challenge logs are weekly.

#

So you have weekly chances to get new squadron members applying.

raven willow
open coral
boreal storm
#

this is a subscription based mmo

heavy wadi
#

This is a subscription based mmo.

raven willow
#

oooh nice nice, most mmos are nowadays

open coral
#

But that's also why we recommend that new players start out on the trial, which is free until you choose to buy and register the game to your account.

#

"Unlimited free trial" is more than just a meme.

raven willow
#

idm buying it !

#

this is coming from the person who just bought 150 dollar custom bunny ears just cause lol

oblique yew
#

is zadnor the best way to lvl reaper from 71-80?

hard aurora
#

bozja/zandor, probably

faint flare
#

Bojza/zadnor yes

#

As DPS ques will be long

#

For obvious reasons

static yacht
#

does ranged LB actually do less than caster LB? I thought that was debunked

regal pawn
#

It does a bit less

#

LB1
Melee 1
Caster 0.6
Ranged 0.540

LB2
Melee 1
Caster 0.591
Ranged 0.532

LB3
Melee 1
Caster 0.6
Ranged 0.54

#

As per Akhmorning's tables

faint flare
#

!faq limitbreak

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

Tables in here

regal pawn
static yacht
#

ok good. I remember reading somewhere that caster LB did more than ranged, but then someone said that wasn't true

regal pawn
#

Sometimes Ranged LB has a better line up

#

Like in Delubrum Reginae, at the 4 bosses

#

You can hit all 4 of htem with Ranged LB
Caster i think can only hit 3

faint flare
#

Pieces?

regal pawn
#

ye

#

didn't remember the name

#

been a while since i did it

faint flare
#

With lb2 or 3 you can hit all

#

Uh, I was trying the EW benchmark, but I ran into a problem, it only detects my integrated gpu?

fossil bloom
#

uhh, how long does ||the nier raid quests go? i thought it would've stopped at the quest that unlocks/requires TTAPB||

dim ridge
#

do we know when the pre-early access maint is going to start yet?

boreal storm
#

Yes

fossil bloom
#

define "a really long time"

dim ridge
fossil bloom
#

i don't mind being spoiled for this one

raven bolt
#

there's like 6 more quests after the last tier of the raids

#

and a few of them are time gated weeklies for some reason

fossil bloom
#

...what

raven bolt
#

so I didn't bother even finishing

#

Yoko taro got us haha

fossil bloom
#

and what would i even get for those

raven bolt
#

an achievement

#

weight of the world orchestrion

fossil bloom
#

so...not worth it

raven bolt
#

unless you really love weight of the world no

boreal storm
barren granite
#

man something wrong with this exuviation, seen it cast 20+ times now

fossil bloom
#

i like the song, but i mean...there's youtube

#

and it's not like i have a house/room to play the orch roll in

#

🤷

raven bolt
#

there you go, I don't like the song so I didn't even bother namazuconcern

hoary kayak
#

i mean its worth it if you wanna see the end of the story lol

raven bolt
#

bruh I skipped like 70% of the cutscenes in that questline

fossil bloom
#

i did the nier raids for the fights and i520 gear

#

just that, really

#

and the occasional i530 gear since it drops the tokens for aug cryptlurker

open coral
fossil bloom
#

yeah, i'm gonna skip that chief

#

thanks for the info

barren granite
#

oh you know what? i friggen already have it, must of got it early and missed it lol

#

hmm must of got it else where, exuviation

#

oh i got it from lost city of amp heh

Hello! Just bought and redeemed the starter edition + endwalker preorder. I ended up with this setting in my mogstation. Did I do everything correctly or should I still redeem something somewhere?

faint flare
#

You're set

#

You don't get stormblood or shadowbringers until the 7th

boreal storm
#

3rd

faint flare
#

It's the 7th for getting the other expansions

#

That's how it's been with others

north citrus
#

Yep, counted on that. It's just that I used the "enter preorder code" button or something - so I was unsure whether I activated both Endwalker and the preorder Endwalker product.

boreal storm
#

Weird

regal pawn
north citrus
regal pawn
#

It will arrive by E-mail
I'm not sure about the website however

#

my guess would be that it'll update the order page or you'll get another entry for endwalker itself

north citrus

Oh okay, thank you, I will keep an eye on it. As long as it comes I don't mind it either way 🙂

you can recieve from both the website and the email

Cure 3 is good to heal melees because of the aoe and Medica 2 initial is weaker than Medica , but has a hot

faint flare
fossil bloom

@dark sphinx

boreal storm
#

Yes, which is why people unsync and get it done with quick

faint flare

And that's why no one cares for syncing old high end content

Literally no reason to

boreal storm

A minority of people

drowsy hornet

some do

faint flare

If you want challenge it's the current content

if people want challenge they play current stuff

You'll NEVER get to the difficulty it was when it was released

im sure some people will do old fights synced if you wanna see what they were like

Min ilvl no echo is the closest you'll get

You still have to mechanic but yeah pretty much

You join learning parties for current content

i just got a 1440p monitor but the game wont let me run full screen and i don't see a 1440p option?

#

the highest i see is 1080 60hz but that opens it on my second 1080p monitor if i set it to that

astral edge
#

why does it highlight japanese but underline english

faint flare
#

Underline is the client language, highlight is their duty finder search language iirc

astral edge
#

...im in europe

heavy jewel

can anyone with a 1440p monitor help

astral edge

Is this game on Ps5 with mouse and keyboard?

faint flare

Yes you can use kbm if you plug it in

Anyone know if I need ps plus to play the game or is the subscription enough?

Get aesthete and overmeld it

was that screenshot from a 4k monitor?

When you do a name change, does it tell you if the name is allowed and/or taken by someone already before confirming?

boreal storm
#

If the name is taken, it should let you know

twilit arch
#

it wont let you change to a name that is taken

glad robin
#

Okay cool

topaz ibex
#

Anyone in here mind helping me with hotbar set up for some reason I can bind stuff to my cross bar or I dont know to

alpine shadow
#

just the sub for the game is enough

lethal mist
#

Just started DNC and curious about the Standard Step and how it works exactly. When I enter I get 15 seconds to do the dances. Sometimes they get that combo square around them but other times not. What exactly does that rely on? Just wanna make sure I learn this particular mechanic... Don't see much in the description about how to combo more just that "the more I dance the better Second Step hits" basically.

faint flare
#

That combo square is the one you're meant to do

#

It's random every time

minor fulcrum
#

You only do the order it shows

faint flare
#

The order is also on the job gauge

lethal mist
#

Where does it show a specific order? I obvuiously click on the combo square if it's up, but as you said it's random.

minor fulcrum
#

Say it's green red. Only press those two and finish

lethal mist
#

Oh

faint flare
#

Your job gauge

minor fulcrum
#

No, its random

faint flare
#

It shows the full order

#

But it's random each use

#

Same with technical

minor fulcrum
#

Your skills will also light up properly in order

faint flare
#

You just play Simon Says

lethal mist
#

Oh so I do these:

faint flare
#

Yes

minor fulcrum
#

Yep

#

Green then red

slate spindle
lethal mist
#

But it's enough to just do the two and then Second Step or should I keep doing them over and over within the 15s window?

faint flare
#

Yes

boreal storm
#

The tutorial job quest explained this

minor fulcrum
#

Yes

faint flare
#

Only those two

minor fulcrum
#

Your standard step should be 5s total

#

Activate, step, step, finish

lethal mist
#

The job quest was a "performance" per se and it did say "do two dances then Second Step".

faint flare
#

And that's teaching you how to do it

minor fulcrum
#

Yep

lethal mist
#

Was just unclear on the order and why sometimes when I ENTER Step I get a combo square at the start and other times not. Guess that's the RNG part.

leaden ginkgo
#

I'm in new gridania and want to switch to CNJ, where is the guild hall?

boreal storm
#

Because the order it picks is random

faint flare
#

That combo square is the same order as the gauge

#

It's another visual reputation of it

lethal mist
#

But sometimes I don't get a starting combo square (After hitting Standard Step I mean, before doing any dances).

faint flare
#

You are

minor fulcrum
#

You are, just look

#

As soon as you start the dance your first step lights up

lethal mist
#

Oh nvm, I hadn't put Pirouette on my bar 🤦

minor fulcrum
#

Oof

lethal mist
#

Big oofs, thanks

boreal storm
#

How

#

It’s on by default

minor fulcrum
#

Did you reset your hotbars lmao

lethal mist
#

When I start a new class I remove all abilities and put them on one by one. I don't like the whole "here's 2 full hotbars GL" bit.

minor fulcrum
#

1234 should be red blue green yellow in order

#

This is mine for example (ignore the endwalker ones)

boreal storm
#

I put Green and yellow over red and blue

minor fulcrum
boreal storm
#

12, ctrl 12

lethal mist
#

Yeah I like to read each ability and then put it down, so I cleared and did that. I do have 3 rows as well ofc. Just haven't put everything down as I can't use them all yet anyway.

minor fulcrum
#

That's always good. Starting at even 50 for rdm/sam I do that cause it's too much info at once

#

Just make sure you scroll all the way down in your actions for your skills that replace other ones

boreal storm
#

Again this is why we look at weskalber guides

waxen siren
minor fulcrum
#

Nah fuck wesk

#

Balance better

waxen siren
#

Unless you’re not in which case just use the map, it’s pretty handy

How to I Relinquish my house? It says I can't do it because of Furniture? I have taken everything out of storage and out of the house. Does the exterior model of the house count?

Ah

#

How do I reset that?

faint flare

Go outside

And open the housing menu like usual

#

weird question: if my retainer is at 80 and i give it reaper job at launch, what happens to the level?

faint flare
#

If it's a class then it will keep its level

tender ice
faint flare
#

If it's a job you'll need to reset it to lv1 and relevel

full berry
#

so even tho i'd be 70 on reaper it will stay on 80?

faint flare
#

Remodel takes off the walls and fancy exterior...you remove furniture as usual like you do inside

full berry
#

cool thanks

tender ice
#

I can't do anything in the remodel bit

#

I'm a bit confused how this works, not used it in a while

faint flare
#

Then you have no exteriors

#

You need another basic wall to replace it

tender ice
#

just any?

faint flare
#

Yes

sweet thanks ill try that

at least i think they're normal

And the store room in the outside

oh there is still stuff on the inside

i thought i took it all out

glacial grail
#

historically speaking, which weapon lines do new jobs usually get? tomestones and final raid tier of the previous xpac along with dungeons?

faint flare
#

Savage and tomes

#

With dungeons ofc

#

Reaper/sage will have Eden weapons

spare plinth
#

oh no somehow mogstation doesn't deliver my items in game? do i have to submit a support ticket?

#

im not really fond of posting personal information

boreal storm

It takes time

okay thanks sounds good 🙂 was fixing to get the deepshadow weapon for reaper

#

That’s about it

spare plinth
fresh gate
#

Yoshida P, the director, has hinted towards adding missing weapons such as heavensward weapons or older ultimates to Gunbreaker and dancer

On a interview

scaevan

#

and smth else

fresh gate
#

I misspoke

ripe hound
#

It’s just Scaevan right?

faint flare
#

Scaevan, cryptlurker and eden

fresh gate
#

Just scaevan and crystarium/cryptlurker

normal oasis

are these raid zones similar to crystal tower and such? sort of the equivalent to LFR from WoW?

Also there’s that one button when talking to the delivery moogle

spare plinth
#

which one? i might have pressed it

fresh gate
faint flare
#

They will, cause people are gonna go try solo potd with it

#

Thus they'll need model

Sage might actually be very nice for solo

You can ask square support

Otherwise you're out of luck, the game asks u like twice if u selected the right character

That’s great, the problem though is if kinks isn’t red lol

glacial grail

that would be really surprising tbh haha

sleek spear
#

How can I know what Item bonuses I should be looking for? Like when I have 3 rings to choose from, which one should I pick?

faint flare
#

One that gives your jobs main stat

sleek spear
#

How do I know whats my jobs main stat?

faint flare
#

It's on ALL your gear

#

Strength, dex, int, mind

regal pawn
#

Check your weapon

#

each weapon will have a different main stat

sleek spear
#

okay so , vitality, crit, dex, and determination

faint flare
#

No

#

That's literally every stat that's not a main stat

faint flare
regal pawn
#

Depends on your job

#

What job are you?

sleek spear
#

AAA, this is so confusing

#

I am bard

faint flare
#

I listed the 4 different ones

regal pawn
#

Then your main stat is Dexterity

faint flare
#

You want dex

regal pawn
#

So pick whatever ring gives you Dexterity

#

and is an upgrade to your current ring

faint flare
#

Everything else is useless if it doesn't have dex

sleek spear
#

I see

#

thank you

regal pawn
#

If they all have the same amount of Dex, you pick whatever has more Crit

sleek spear
#

Still its very confusing because nothing actually tells me what my main stat is, and all my gear has the same bonuses haha

regal pawn
#

Actually

faint flare
#

Your character page says

#

Which each stat does

regal pawn
faint flare
#

When you hover over it

#

Like so

regal pawn
#

But generally

sleek spear
#

right, but that doesnt tell me which one I should prioritize

regal pawn
#

whatever attribute your weapon has

faint flare
#

You priotise main stat

regal pawn
faint flare
#

Main stat >>>> substats like ones listed above

regal pawn
#

Higher item level > higher weapon damage > higher dex > higher crit > higher dh > higher det

sleek spear
#

right, but again. Without asking I would have no way of knowing what was the main stat

regal pawn

Your weapon

boreal storm
#

It’s on your gear

faint flare
#

Again, character page tells you and your weapon

regal pawn
#

Though to be fair, they did list Dex alongside the others and Vinyl said that none of them are main stat

#

But yeah, weapon

sleek spear
#

okay, but that weapon also has other bonuses, how do you know that one is the main one?

#

because its first in order?

boreal storm
#

The first one

faint flare
#

It's always the first one

sleek spear
#

I see

#

okay thank you

regal pawn
#

Main Stats do the most for your damage

#

Right after weapon damage and ilvl

ripe hound
#

Tank's main damage stat is Strength right?

boreal storm
#

Yeah

brave dawn
#

I don't see the damage my dots do, is there a way to enable that?

outer mural
#

if you have damage numbers on then dot damage should be on by default

#

can you describe the circumstance more clearly

faint flare
#

Pop up text shows your dot damage..... And all the damage from everyone else, hiding it

outer mural
#

i see

brave dawn
#

no like i'm trying on a dummy right now and I don't see dot damage

faint flare
#

You have pop up text turned off

#

It shows as small, purple numbers on them

brave dawn
#

I only see the damage numbers for spells that do direct damage, is there an individual setting for dots? monkaHmm

faint flare
#

Turn

#

Pop up text

#

On

brave dawn
#

where PepeHands

faint flare
#

Character configuration > ui > hud

#

You really don't need to see it

brave dawn
#

It's on, I just have it disabled for the other players, but mine is on

faint flare
#

Flying text is yours, pop up is other people

#

And dots fall under pop up

#

Regular damage falls under flying

amber edge
#

Anyone know how to get loads of gc seals

#

I've done the leveling

#

And all the hunting logs

#

But is there another way?

faint flare
#

Arr fates if you can't turn in gear yet

amber edge
#

How many fates do I need to get 5k

#

Estimate is fine

brave dawn
little swift
#

Uhhh 16

#

If each fate gives you just shy of 300

amber edge
#

Damn

faint flare
#

Dot damage shows as small purple damage when it's applied

amber edge
#

I guess I'll wait for tmr🤣

faint flare
#

Not like regular damage spells

balmy haven
#

Hello guys, I was wondering if someone could tell me which jobs have procs as part of their core rotations?

faint flare
#

Bard, red mage

#

Dancer

brave dawn
#

there's no purple numbers, I only see orange numbers

faint flare
#

Black mage had some procs

balmy haven
#

Do all the melee DPS have deterministic rotations?

faint flare
#

Yes

balmy haven
#

oki ty

sleek spear
#

as a bard when clearing trash, is it even worth it to sing my songs? I find it very hard to actually use because by the time I cast my dots the mob is already dead so I dont get any benefit from it.

faint flare
#

always have them up

#

You can dot mobs as you run

brave dawn
#

oh nvm i see dots now, thanks @faint flare though if I have to see other people 's damage then i'd rather keep it off lol it's kinda dumb

faint flare
#

You really don't need to see dot damage

brave dawn
#

yeah I guess so

sleek spear
# faint flare always have them up

I dont have all 3 just yet so I cant always have them up, but I will try what you suggested, but I feel like I would struggle to keep track of If I have my dots up at least on one mob, as they die all the time around me

Mkey. Which servers in Europe are the ones people usually use for RPing?

boreal storm
#

There isn’t really a RP centric server for EU

hasty musk
#

afaik RPing is largely centered around Balmung and Mateus, which are NA, not European, but there's RP presence on most servers

sleek spear
#

I feel like every world RPs

#

yesterday I saw a player ran wedding happen on Twintania

#

so you know, that was super cool

faint flare
#

Not to the extent balmung and mateus do

leaden ginkgo
#

Is Balmung and mateu in the chaos datacenter?

#

Watching the cinematic so I can't check rn

faint flare
#

Crystal

#

NA

leaden ginkgo
#

Ah

hasty musk
#

not like you need amazing ping for rp tbf

sleek spear
#

I would guess Irish would be better off in EU datacenters right?

leaden ginkgo
#

What's the difference between the Omega server and the Cerberus server?

Sorry for asking so many questions-

faint flare
#

Literally none

hasty musk
#

there are different people on it

#

that's it

faint flare
#

Cause they're both chaos

#

So there's legit no difference

'Which world should I pick?'

You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.

The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.

If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.

Notable worlds:

  • Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
  • Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
  • Moogle (Large amount of French players)
  • Shiva (Large amount of German players)
    ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
hasty musk
#

you can visit other servers on your datacenter and all queueable content is cross server so it's whatever

#

Connection from Ireland to the US can get fucky

#

Speaking from experience

leaden ginkgo
#

#

Sorry if it felt like I asked too many questions

heavy wadi
#

outer mural
#

yeah you 're not gonan get much luck unless you join an FC willing to let you use their facilities to craft it

zenith dragon
#

So to follow my question, how do I join a FC? xD

#

I know what they are kinda, just never thought of joining one

hasty musk
#

you apply to one by right clicking on someone and looking at theirs, or you get invited to one by someone else

zenith dragon
#

No way to browse recruitments or anything like that?

Q: When selecting a grad company, does it matter which one is picked for your job? or is it a RP only thing?

faint flare
#

Literally no difference

regal pawn
#

They have different gear visuals and locations
But outside of that, no difference

dim quarry
#

how important is bis gear and materia if im practicing stone sky sea?

faint flare
#

It speeds it up

regal pawn
#

well BiS gear and Materia will speed it up
So you're doing more dps

#

But outside of that, it's kinda whatever

dim quarry
#

faint flare
#

Weapon is fucking God awful

dim quarry
#

faint flare
#

A better weapon will make it jump massively

dim quarry
#

oh really

faint flare
#

Weapon damage is the BEST and most important stat

dim quarry
#

i figured 496 is above 485 so i should be fine.

faint flare
#

Literally 1 weapon damage increase is noticeable

faint flare
#

Ilvl means nothing if you're ilvl inflated

dim quarry
