few hours, give or take
ok
However long it takes for you to get to the level 50ish msq
mhm, which is a few hours regardless
tbh you should be a few levels above 50
Nice. Was sorta worried that it'll feel like forever once the level gets higher.
due to the xp
Your level itself means ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, what matters is the level of your current msq
The checkmark next to the maelstrom flag, what does it mean?
Won't higher msq levels become harder or take longer to furfill?
Aight
Once you finish the a realm reborn, msq exp will become garbage for a while, this is because you're doing patches that were released while the level cap was still 50
So keep that in mind
Ah, I see. At least I'll be able to become a DKR then. Speaking off. If I switch from PLD to DKR, what level will I start as with the DKR?
30
i guess we cant preload ew… have to dl on patch day?
you download while maintenance is running
ah ok
and since it's a 24h maintenance you should have enough time to be rdy for when the server are up again
I wonder now if it's actually possible to speedrun from msq level 20 up to the point where I arrive Ishgard until the end of the weekend.

playing 2 years worth of content in 2 days sounds .. intense
with cutscene, and queue time, and reading and .. etc
Heh... quene time... 
if you play healer/tank you can strike that part out
I'm a PLD. Having sometimes quene times up to 18 minutes.
To be fair though, it's early and I doubt much people are up.
well
which honors should i go for in bozja first hmm

DPS honors are +3% per stack
HP honors are +4% per stack
Healing honors are +10% per stack, and work on all your sources of healing.
If you play healer a decent amount in bozja, the healing honors are VERY good.
Personally I went for a mix of both damage and healing honors as I mainly play healer in bozja content
and HP honors to like 6 while they were cheap
means you're affiliated w/ that GC at the moment.

Are all 3 of the level 80 24 man raids coin unlocked?
yes
kk, was just told it doesnt drop after 1 run for the 3rd one
it drops on every run, for all of them
kk ty
That's the materia clusters
Those are still weekly locked
But that really doesn't matter
Ty!!
Will I be able to buy the lv80 blue gatherer/crafter gear with yellow scrips when EW hits?
like cryptlurker becoming buyable with poetics
Best way to level crafters 80 to 90?
I'm planning on levelling up reaper in Bozja, which would be a better place to do it? Zadnor or the southern front?
exp is the same
leve, and the new set of blue quests
yellow scrips will be gone and white takes its spot + another new scrip for 90 stuff
i see, thank you!
so I should start building up my white scrips and blow my yellows now
I presume 
I'll just assume it's arse like the tomestones
plus I do have things to blow yellow scrips on anyway 
I unlocked afflatus solace but cant use it because i dont have the gauge..?
Why is this happening?
Did u do all ur job quests
Iirc there is something wonky with whm where u get the gauge later
So just continue lol
the job gauge comes from the 52 job quest
whereas afflatus solace is at 52 naturally
@mild mountain
For a FT Player, how difficult is Alexander Savage?
depends on if you can get lvl 80s to help you

if yes, ez pz, save like a12s where you still have 1 or 2 things to watch out for
if not or doing i synced... its a bit hard yeah
OK thanks
What are the requirements for a player to join an existing free company?
There are most of ur abilities my dear
Isnt there a level 10 requirement?
you have to be level 25 to make one
but to my knowledge there is no level restriction on joining an FC
Thank you. Also, to buy a guild plot, do you need 3 or 4 free company members?
4 iirc
Oh yeah iirc last month when i first started someone gave me a code which is supposedly going to give me something for buying the game full version. Is it still available? No expire date?
as long as no one lese used it ye
mog station
just google ffxiv mog station, log in, there should be a button to register game code
How much does 3.5 and last bits of HW take?
3 hours ish
Nice, thanks

Are some servers more end game content focused? I seem to be on an RP realm, or are they all mainly RP driven? I'm on Coeurl (Crystal DC).
im raiding just fine on crystal
only its like a week before endwalker most ppl are done with the raid tier since a while ago and are waiting for endwalker
how long does it take to complety recharge allowance?
for leves?
yes
about 20 days
https://www.gamepur.com/guides/best-servers-to-join-in-final-fantasy-xiv i refered to this when i first started the game. Dunno if its true but better than no reference ig
yeah that one aint true
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
Ah i shouldve aimed for oceanic server
@modest igloo nice, but is your server more rp driven or content driven? I ask because all I see in chat is DJ's and party's.
it's 6am est
crystal has a larger rp presence than most DCs
so raids are primaly prime-time stuff on crystal
what glam is this?
People RP, but they still play the game
I really want that coat
that looks like a mod but I'm not sure
@mild mountain thx yeah I watched that vid and thought with the pop explosion since wow has it's drama that they may have changed a bit.
At this point no ones raiding cus Endwalker is here soon
Where do they usually rp? Because i hardly see ppl rp in crystal but maybe my timezone or something
People don't roleplay publicly
Oh you changed your name 
yeah they advertise come to my party with dj's and rp there.
They do it in housing, linkshells or tells
I change it whenever someone misspells my name
shoutout to the time I saw someone erp in yell chat by accident one time
NOO
it's from jp database
it was super explicit too
but I don't read moonrune so I have no idea
looks like a crafter top
cause it is
thanks
ugh so that mean I have to level my ALC to wear it
but then again I can't use it for battleclass
D:
that looks nice .-. any dow/ dom equivalence?
why Yoshi-P, why torture me with such a good set and not allow battle class to wear it
actually, snow’s coat on mog station looks like that .. somewhat
not as sleek but will do .. with $$$

there are replicas of DOL/DOH job gears sold in Chinese server
idk why the mog station miss them
hey i kinda have issue
how do i get the potd window back open,,,i closed it accidentally
i cancelled my endwalker pre order when they delay to save money but i still have it access on my mogsation
i haven't payed anything
it's the character menu
press c
How do you unlock scrip? Is it obtainable through only specific classes and jobs?
With special tomestones being eliminated, what will be the point of Hunt trains now? Just achievements? You’ll be able to get poetics from daily roulettes as everyone will be leveling 80-90. Also, will there be level 90 marks?
?
ty
they're not eliminating tomestones?
there'll be new special tomestones
they're cycling them like normal
if anyone knows please help
same as the sb hunts
you probably won't have access to early access if you've canceled the pre-order and they haven't charged you, but to be safe you might want to disconnect whatever payment method you use?
Sushi!
idk
from what i leared once the pre order release it will send you a code
you need to apply it in order to play it
is that right ?
They might update your page when EA releases
So will revelation tomestones be converted/exchanged to the new special tomestones ?
Revelation and Allegory will be exchangable for poetics
And you won't be able to use R and A to buy anything that you can buy with them currently
then we begin the grind all over again!
@regal pawn@hasty musk
thanks for the help
What about Nuts?
lvl 90 gear tomestone gear will be bought with Aphorism tomestones
The higher tier of 90 gear will be bought with Astronomy tomestones
nuts will be left alone
Nuts will stay as the SHB hunt currency
we don't know what the EW hunt currency will be
afaik
They'll either add a new hunt currency or might use Centurio Seals
Where is the website that the picture is from?
the tomestone/scrip link in this
Did they remove the afk kick after 30mins? Will they have it in Endwalker launch?
No, why would they. 100% it’ll still be there
afk kick is still active, i think
and will definitely stay active for Endwalker launch
Major ShB spoilers:
||So the exarch Graha Tia we see in ShB, he hasn't experienced the events of the crystal tower raids right? From what I can make out of his story, he comes from the time when the calamity of the source and the first happened. We still have no clue what happened to him after the crystal tower raids?|| I still need to finish ShB and haven't touched post ShB yet so please keep spoilers to a minimum
||The timeline he's from is the same as ours until basically patch 4.4/4.5. We still did the crystal tower raid in that timeline||
evidence outside of the game is generally not considered sufficient for a report.
since it can be faked and SE can't verify it for themselves.
I see, so basically after Stormblood ||the calamity happened and he travelled back in time. That still leaves me very fucking confused on how if he was locked up in the crystal tower (even in his timeline where the calamity happened) all of a sudden just appears back in the source. Probably some trick from Cid to bring him back then because he knew Graha could do it with the tower?||
||He was locked in the Tower after CT, and many many generations after the Calamity of his timeline, he was woken up by residents of the Source and flung, with the Tower, to the First back in time||
Gotcha. Thanks
i mean, toxicity is bad but .. missing an ult clear on an a2c party sucks too so might have been just, heat of the moment
We will never experience his timeline - as his goal is to unwrite that eventuality
Well, past the divergence that is
is this card required for mount
no
alright i know the last things i need to farm from this event before endwalker
Can you get House Fortemps Kite Shield again if you discard it? since untradeable
calamity salvager should have it
Does it have a sell price
you know what sux .. failing on a potd boss solo :/
floor 20 boss?
ya .lol
this is #questions-and-help
wiki says Sale Price: 100 gil (Restricted)
UnsellableMarket Prohibited
yeah that plant is pretty overtuned
drg cant do it too well
Make sure to use the POTD sustaining potions and use a succubus for the vuln stacks
Then yeah, calamity salvager
Selling NPC Area
Calamity Salvager Limsa Lominsa Upper Decks (X:11.3 Y:14.3)
Calamity Salvager Old Gridania (X:10.0 Y:8.4)
Calamity Salvager Ul'dah - Steps of Thal (X:12.6 Y:13.1)
hmmm succ, was gonna use it too
is there an item like the tea/syrup for gathering?
oh yeah the page even says that, cool ty
You basically gather all the white scrip unspoiled items as they pop up
same for yellow scrip, you basically gather from as many unspoiled nodes as possible as they spawn
no no like a medicine buff, like how DoH has the syrup/tea for the small buffs
oh then no
oof
Just FYI the entire last page, character cards, are not needed for "Jack of All Cards" and the mount you get. So not as horrible but still a grind!
thank you for the info @lethal mist
So i heard you can exchange allegory and revelation into poetic after ew but whats the exchange rate?
probably 4:1 and/or 2:1
Wait that sounds cool. Is it only one way?
well, since allegories/revelations have no use after EW hits
why would it not be one-way
you also won't be able to obtain them once 6.0 launches
they'll be soft-removed from the game
and Phantasmagoria, an older SHB tomestone, will be hard-removed
So stuff that right now is in "Discontinued" in the Currency menu will be removed entirely?
yep
Cool, why do they soft-remove first tho?
to give people time to trade them in
You wouldn't like it if you had to burn all your allegories/revelations now rather than have the choice of conversion to poetics
would you
A question about crafting, why am I lvl 30 but have the 31-35 recipes unlocked in the log?
You unlock recipes 5 levels ahead
Did they say if the diadem and the skybuilders' stuff would get removed in endwalker?
but im lvl 32 now and don't have the 35-40 ones
Tbh I've been capped on Allegory/Reve for a while cause I just keep forgetting about them while leveling and doing other stuff. The mere number of currencies and things to keep in mind alongside dailies/weeklies is overwhelming. But I understand the issue ofc.
you can do recipes 3 or 4 levels above you
They unlock in brackets
so once you hit 33 you should unlock 36-40
ah
hm?
in the long run trying to get HQ items, am i better off using King's yield 3 or Bountiful Yield 2?
Bountiful Yield is more GP-efficient assuming it gets the max bonus
ty ty
How do you get gold scrips?
yellow scrips come from turning in collectables to the house of splendors or from custom deliveries
!faq scripunlock
Unlocking scrips (Foundation x10, y10.)
Unlocking Idyllshire's House of Splendors (Mor Dhona 22, y6)
Unlocking Rhalgr's Reach House of Splendors (Rhalgr's Reach x10, y12)
Unlocking Eulmore's House of Splendors (Eulmore at x11, y10, on the top floor)
Ah okay
One way to get a lot of scrips weekly is doing those Custom Deliveries you can unlock. Every week I gotta use up scrips to clear to even complete all 12 deliveries. You'll get enough for all the gear and whatnot you'll need.
guys about retainers i have 6 of them as gathers but i wanna know is it better to equip them with stuff gives GP or anything?
That's the only stat that matters for gather
so wut is the recommended gear for them at level 36-40 anything the same level?
kk thx
i can just sell my beginner weapons right
Yes
They serve no purpose once you out level them
Unless you want to keep them for fashion
is there any use of maxing the spiritbond?
free materia
So do people just carry some stuff around when they want to change glamour cause 15 palettes is hella few especially if you have a few job specific stuff.
so its not like when it reach 100% it will improve something?
nope
only in town too on top of that
I actually carry stuff around bc of that
Damn, I'm far from that privilege as I still need to make room for sub 80 gear. One of the reasons I want to level all characters is to be able to yeet everything sub80 and then maybe get space for glamour stuff :x
it still sucks for weapons
Is this the best i can get for hw tank?
Nvm stormblood i mean
My lv is alrdy 70 but im still in heavensward hence the confusion
If you're still in HW you really don't need to worry about buying lv. 70 gear
you'll get synced down for instances,
and after clearing base SB you get access to tomestone gear
Hw tomestone gear is better than this?
SB Tomestone gear is
As a FT should i bother trying Ocean Fishing or rather wait for LV 70/80?
Fisher can easily level up by doing just that, ocean fishing. It's one of the fastest leveling jobs.
Do it any time you can
do it yeah
great from lvl 1 to 80
Every second hour I believe so quite often.
Well i Just reached Fishing lv60 yesterday, Just need scrips for better gear
yup, in perfect trade with open tournaments.
which happen every hour the fishing does not
Dno't worry about gear going into Ocean Fishing.
Might as well not buy anything new now, power to 80 then get scrip gear.
Already finished both so ;).
you got more luck in your little finger than I got in my whole body
Don't forget you need one of those for phoenix card
For purely levelling on ocean fishing you can just spam versatile lure and make exp out the ass
Lole, I started in April and one of my first goals was cards basically. Got Jack of All Cards asap.
You don't even need bait lol
why can't i use desynthesis on my fish?
need cul lvl 30
Because you don't have desynth unlocked
The NPC on board the ship sells bait tho, so it's easy to get 99 of it and start going at it
Your cul is insufficiently levelled
i do
Or its a collectable
oh only cul can?
yah
ic
Specific items are desynthed by specific jobs
alternatively, just take the one that's basically infinite use if you don't know the bait
It’s cul for fish
What job desynths what is the same as what job repairs what
You don't ask a chef to fix your weaponry so they get fish
to be fair, cul should 100% be able to fix knives lmao
At least their own
nah not being a blacksmith means they can't handle knives
I know, but logically a chef that doesn't know how to maintain their knives is a bad chef

suggestions on making a printable version of my character?
Printable?
as in 3D-Printing
DoH/DoL worth getting into? i havent bothered with any whatsoever
Side content, but being able to repair your own gear and meld for free is very nice to have
Also lucrative, if you know how to play the market board
repairing gear as DoH at 99% sets the durability to 199% instead of 100 like NPC repair does.
just for that it's already worth it.
plus theres the beast tribes, weeklies, etc
Ah shit, I'm running out of dark matter again now that I think about it
aint there gonna be grade 8 next expac?
They should.
No idea
Should be yeah
Can others see when you type this in chat?
Side notr
Yes
Nearby players yes
ty
It's short range
20 yalms
they should of measured it in lalafell
should have* friend
i still cant visualize how much a yalm is in my head 
one lalafell
is it actually one lalafell
A metre
Exactly one lalafell
A Lalafell would be less than a yalm actually 
lalas are about 1m so it checks out
mad because meter
very, very angry
legit 1:1 meter?
Okay I'll stop
Obvious joke: who tf uses yards
Fun fact in the JP client attack ranges are given in metres instead of yalms
a yard is 0.9 meter
lalafell football
We use yards in Britain on the roads sometimes
!whoami
Oh wow how do you set that up?
alphinaud, you have ...grown
I...AM NOT...
#kupo-bot-spam
How do you make that bot bring up ur char?
There's some setup involved
probably best to pop the command in #kupo-bot-spam and follow the instructions
Do you link your account or something
go to #kupo-bot-spam and do !iam firstname lastname @ world iirc
Oh ty
Best way to get Crystal Sand? ^^'
i used blue scrips and amber-encased vileskin
Alright, thank you! :>
When you make those whoami cards, which character will be shown? The one you had active at the time of making it or random or something else decides?
Can I ask technical related stuff here?
The one you assign to it
where can i buy the gathering manuals for up to lvl 70
Next seal rock is on Saturday, right?
You can buy them with Scrips
yellow scrips
but where
Scrip exchange
they're under the lv50 section
70 for the one that goes up to 80
cool ty
can someone help? i started doing the ARR (Zodic) relic a few months ago and took a break from the game, I have completely forgotten where i was and I just tried doing one of the Book of Netherfall I objectives and I didn't gain progress (and the enemy didn't have an icon above it's head) so I think I may have skipped a book by accident. Is there any way I can check my progess?
whats the fastest way to get poetics? I need 3K. apart from roulettes
you need to have the weapon equipped for the book step, don't you?
you need to have the relic equipped for the books
i am so stupid haha, thats probably why :,)
thank you!
run aetherochemical research facility (150 poetics per run) or any of the 50/60/70 dungeons that give 100 poetics
!faq poetics
still didn't work o-o
check against the book in your inventory
thanks
its up to you whether going for a line or not is worth your time
personally don't bother since i'm not in need of poetics/dont care too much about the extra rewards that come with 1/2/3 lines
the week just started, you'll probably get a bunch of second chance points yet
anything i should know when fishing for white coral? I'm at summerford using pillsbugs rn
If you got that book after Tuesday then it'll still be redeemable til the official launch of endwalker so you'll want to keep it to level reaper and sage during early access
use the trawling ability
since it's not alive you will only catch it while using that thing when you put extra hooks on
so, how many levels can you throw into reaper/sage on day 1?
wondrous tails being 1 level, roulettes being at least 1, challenge log probably another 1?
If spend enough time that day, all 20
You could farm dungeons and you can finish it day 1.
How does voice chat in this game work? I am on PS4 and i have not heard anybody talking? Do i have to put it on somewhere? Or does it only work in a party?
tru
there is no voice chat in this game
do i get that at lvl 15?
36
also if i complete a leatherworker levequest as a blacksmith which job gets the exp?
you can't
oh
The leve exp is for leatherworker
as in give them the item as a blacksmith
although since white coral is low level maybe you dont need it for that
but generally for not-alive items you need to have it on
You can't
hmm really?
yes
im pretty sure i did just that tho
Even if you're on another job while turning in leves
you're getting exp for the leve that job is for
oh right thass what i was asking
you didn't. you don't need to be the job at that moment to receive the exp on it
so leatherworker leve gives leatherworker exp
i thought u meant i couldn't give the item as a different job either
so i'll still get the exp for ltw
great
i thought i wasted all my exp on the wrong job
If a piece of gear is in the glamour dresser, can I still glamour single things while being in there or do I have to remove it, glamour, and re-insert it? (Don't wanna waste a palette slot on one item).
you can glamour from the dresser
Right click, apply glamour
Base Item Level cannot be lower than that of the glamour cast. My bow is L70/IL400 while the one I want is L71/IL390....
Guess they're close enough that I can simply just use the bow as is, no? 390 to 400 cant be that big of a diff.
item level is irrelevant
the equip level is the thing that matters
so trying to glamour a lvl 71 item onto a lvl 70 won't work
scaevan (assuming that's what you're using) is going to be better than the 71 bow
But you can't glam it to look like the 71 bow
Yes I know, wanted the look tho
Then just get a better bow from the 73 dungeon or later
Gonna have to wait until you get to the 75 dungeon
That one drops better items than scaevan
That too i guess
Still, why even have that restriction? Looks shouldn't be locked :x
Make you work for it
It's most likely just spaghetti code
because they don't want you making a low level gear looking like high level gear
That probably plays a role too
And why you can’t wear glam not suited for your role
One of the reasons I am basically only looking at "All classes" gear for glamour
Sadly I assume that doesn't apply to weapons
That would just be asking for trouble
I just wanna be pretty
Then work within the restrictions
I have fabulous glams for all my combat jobs
Restrictions breed creativity
I'm trying, I'm new so I have to give it time I guess.
There's always the eorzea collection for inspiration
I took some ideas from it for my current whm glam
Which you can see as my banner cuz I don't want to spam images here
oof i did not know this one existed
And yes, there's a version without the effects
the pvp AST weapon has an owl and a baby owl 
What's that?
Website where people post glams
Website
Oh
I'm still using the zeta relic for my brd glam
i'm working on the anima one cause it's fucking huge
so i want to preorder enwalker for the earing but im gonna be able to play until endwalker is already out will i still get it if i do it now?
Welcome to the true endgame
You get preorder bonuses now
my sub has already ran out
That said, need to own the game to get those
i already bought shadowbringers
Idk anything about applying codes without sub time, but it's currently Endwalker prep week since this week's wt can be used for reaper and sage
So might be a good time to resub
And mogstation will be down before and during the Endwalker maintenance
Ok thanks
Should get 30 days free when you purchase but that’s it
Dudes owns shb
Don’t recommend buy now if you are planning on getting endwalker
expansions don't come with sub time
Apologies I read this as he just purchased up to ShB, not that he was already through it
O okay my bad
Are they gonna add exp rewards to lvl 80 quests when Endwalker releases?

Only post MSQ and EW side quests
Assuming they keep same level sync system as they had in ShB
Hey I’ve heard their are 100% drop mounts but apparently it’s not the extreme primals cause I found out their 20% dc
yes, the lvl80 post msq for shb will get exp
Anybody know if this is true want too get all the bass ones
Yes but it'll be garbage
same as the 50/60/70 quests, it won't be as good as the leveling msq portions
but it'll have some exp
Drop rng is calculated server side, no way to know exact rates short of hacking the servers
Thanks so I’m guessing I have too do all the extreme too unlock savage ?
Nope
No
Totally separate
O okay so just have too be a certain level?
And clear the normal version yeah
And complete the normal raid tier
Alright sweet tyvm for your help, Kat and paragon 🙂
how do i solo a dungeon? i swear it was through party finder but its not working o-o
!faq unsync
In your duty finder window select the ⚙️ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
thanks!
is there anyway to be aware of dalrida pop times outside of being in zadnor?
no pop timer discords or bots?
aha
well i guess dalrida wont be my method of raw emotions
it's been an hour since one popped
do ces and skirmishes
You're probably in a closed instance
to make it spawn faster
and that
dal only spawns like.... twice in an instance iirc?
closed instance?
It's on a half hour timer, provided there's x amount of people who can do it
ohhh
or well, practically twice
do i just leave and come back to reset it?
Said half hour also reduces when CEs are completed
the instance usually dies after the second run in my experience
yeah
just leave and go into another instance
thanks
If i decieded to activate undersized party with level sync deactivated and go into 'The Praetorium' whould i be able to skip the cutscenes and get the Allagan Tomestone of Poetics at the end of it?
dammit
Unless you have a first timer
as a black mage should i replace blizzard 3 with blizzard 4 in my hot bar?
blizz 4 is solely for the umbral hearts

Are there many bots in FFXIV? I see a lot of this but not sure if it's a RP thing or a bot 😛

Theres bots in every game
pretty sure they're bots
Did think so, but didn't wanna judge someones keyboard rolled name 🙂
only roes are legally allowed to have keyboard smash names 
sometimes they float under the ground and watch you 
I'm in queue for Haukke Manor watching like 20 spawning so I'm just writing a giant report whilst waiting ^^
Begone uglies
Hi guys
I am having problems with the controls.
Everytime when more then one enemy is on the field it gets hard to focus on them. And i lock onto different other enemies.
Sometimes while attacking i am suddenly locked to my own character and i am not attacking anymore. What am I doing wrong? Is there something in the settings i should change?
(PS4 controller)
lock on target
Why I am suddenly locked on to my own character? Why is it loosing the lock on the enemy?
not sure why but there is a setting for that you can turn on / off .
maybe you have a button assingned to target self ?
on your ps4 controller ?

I don't know anythijg about targeting yourself unless you are using the up arrow on the D-Pad but I usually just target an enemy with x using line of sight on my characterwith my PS4 controller.
Oh interesting. I put my strong shot on dpad up. Could it be connected to this
Maybe so. I used WXHB so I dont need to use the D-Pad as a hotbar.
As default, up and down goes down the party list.
Left and right switches between targets.
are MGP card affected by MGP boost effect ?
don't think so?
they're not
oh thx
lol
I wanna edit my character's appearance where should I put all my stuff
did you use the fantasia already?
any1 know how to export code from the lulu's tool ocean fishing
hi guys i just download final fantasy
which sever should i pick
Oh
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
Server choice means nothing
ohh what you mean
If you right click -> unequip the gear automatically goes into the armoury chest
unless yours is full or something
yeah I did it
Everything is cross server
Instances content pulls players from your entire data center, so server choice really only matters if you want to join a specific player guild (free company)
You can visit other servers for stuff if you want
ohh but how i know this server close to my country
EU servers are all in the same place in Europe
All data centres for that region are in same place
ohh
EU server is in Germany
can I get banned for using macro programs? specifically, I'm using X-Mouse to bind my cheap shit mouse's M4 button to act as CTRL
That's fine
You won’t get banned for that
That’s on the level of standard gaming mouse onboard software
so i can change from chaos to light server at anytime?
no
But early next year you can travel between them
thanks
wait do job quests stop at lvl 70 currently?
Yes
There are role quests for 70-80
Then a lore-only level 80 class quest for each job once you’ve completed the corresponding role quests
u mean those at crystarium ?
Yes
Role quests cover every class within a given role. Tank, healer, physical dps, magic dps
Endwalker will break down the physical dps category into physical ranged and melee
wait so first you complete the role quest at crystarium (which lvl is required to pick that quest? ) and then the lvl 70-80 combat job quest pops up ?
No, only a level 80 
No
It’s only a level 80 yellow quest but yeah. They appear after you finish the role quest line.
The role quest is a questline from 70 to 80
oh i see
Or well 71 i think
You need level 71 with an appropriate role to pick up each of the four role quest chains
But you only do each of those chains once
You don’t have to do, say, the tank role quests four times
what is patron deity
RP
what is best rp
is it just me or are the AST quests shitty af ?
flavour
Whichever one you like. It’s not relevant for gameplay. Only RP (role play)
❤️
do u have tips for begginer
!faq new player tips
Follow what the game says
!faq newplayertips
@frosty wave yea
It's infinite because it either closes my game
Or it's just stuck for hours
Update your drivers
The issue is this
I was playin
Then I closed it and went to play a bit of league
Then hop back in
Never got in since
your best bet is to open a support ticket
It's either a connection problem, or something is wrong with your pc
I'd lean toward the latter
Update your drivers and see if it helps
I mean your GPU, it can't hurt, but I know for me only recently, Halo took like 2 mins to load, now it takes 2 seconds, since I updated
So far I've tried the following: 1) restart computer
2) disconnect router and modem and reconnect
3) try 50 times, with various results but none of the results get me in
4) downloaded the game twice
I will give that a shot
The frustrating thing is that
It was working
Did you do a windows update in between playing?
Until it just stopped
Nope there's one league game in between
I have ran out of ideas to narrow down the issue
Peculiar but frustrating
I've also never had FF crash
Clear your internet explorer cookies
so the equivalent of exarchic gear, but for endwalker, will be a different recipe each patch ?
It MIGHT have something to do with ISP
I can't imagine it would have an effect on the game
But it does help with launcher issues
Exarchic is the final tier of crafted gear
yes but for ShB
The reason why I think that MIGHT be the case is, I've rarely gotten stuck in queue
every 2 patches then
But for everytime that I got stuck on loading screen, there was a queue
Not sure if that has something to do with it
No
Nope
Or the subscription
You'd get a message saying there's no valid FF account
There’s login restrictions on trial players if the server queues are overloaded
It was a rule-out question
Can you use a different connection?
It is a home computer but I gave tried connecting to the modem instead of the router
Needless to say that didn't fix it
Gnna try that later
I don't remember the kupo command
I'm not at home atm but it just feels like a puzzle that should've been easily fixed

I've recently placed my ff14 in an external SSD
The circle surrounded by the funny burny things
For 2 days it never had an issue, but one hour after the no issue
The issue started
SSD shouldn't cause problems
That's what I think as well but you know, cover all bases
One thing I'm considering is roll back the PC 2 days
If it's possible
If nothing works, support should be able to help, at least they'll have more specific troubleshooting steps
i cant find the gathering manuals for lvl 70
im at scrip exchange in firamont
Yeppp thanks guys I will test the server ping thing
If it still doesn't work I will roll back, last resort is the support
Support will likely tell me to access FFXIV.cfm and change the cutscene setting from 0-1
Check in with #technology-discussion too
Cool!
They might have ideas
Ye let me try that
whats the best way to know when hunt trains are starting? are there soecific linkshells for it?
Yes. And discords
how can i join these linkshells?
Ask for an invite
just shout in a big city?
Yes
cool
i have no main quest in my map what to do
-
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.
ohh
these ones give very little exp or gil, u can skip them
i bought the story skip but im trying to get coils of bahamut and minfilia isn't in the waking sands-western.
i need to level up to 4
you need to finish some prerequisites, unfortunately I don't know which quests you're missing due to the story skip
guess you gotta do those
then

unless they're done, then well
k ❤️
job quest will prolly give you enough exp
what % of your exp bar does the wondrous tales give?
half, all the time
50% huh wow
That's why people say to save this week's book for RPR
half a lv70 xp bar filled for free
It can be redeemed on any class except BLU because screw BLU 
i was thinking about it but im gonna go through the msq on my main job anyway
doesnt hurt i guess
how much is story skip
25USD to skip ARR, HW and StB all at once
is it "legal" to link a midi music keyboard to my computer to play bard songs ?
to play them myself of course
tons of people use straight up midi players without any issues so i'd say that's more legit than anything
what's the current ilvl / gathering cutoff for max retainer rewards?
isnt that not authorized ? got a message ingame about this when getting bard
So I'm seeing some PoTD videos, and I see some people to use pommander of lust and transform into a succubus. But 10 seconds in with still 40 seconds of transformation left, they transform back to normal. How do they do that?
It's more of a legal thing
If you record third party performances and upload them, sqenix is not responsible for anything that happens to you
yeah i think it's more about being careful about playing songs you don't have the copyright to
but that isn't a problem in practice either unless you like stream it to tons of people
What’s a good way of looking for parties for extreme trials? Trying to use party finder and discord and not having much luck
If you're trying to do old Trials you're out of luck sadly
is it known when the exp penalty occurs in eureka? i just started there, so im lvl 1 and my friend is lvl 20 so we cant play together (yet). which lvl range do we have to be in in order to not suffer exp penalties?
Damn, so looking into recruitment for statics is the only real way to do it?
right click the buff
seems like the mog-rapier
Specifically it's the crafted moogle weaponn
You either craft it or get it off the marketboard
If you want the clear or grind mounts/weapons u can make unsynched farm parties
hey guys
im new here i'm trying to look for someone who can teach some savage raids because i'm afraid to do it alone lol
Are the moogle items tradeable, like the direwolf whistle?
If the item says it's not tradeable, then no
But still you’d need to find a group for that right?
which ones
People are more open to doing unsynched farms
for an ARR extreme you only need 1 person at lvl 80
e9s is the one ive seen the tutorials for now
throw up a party finder and put in the listing description learning party
Thanks industrial and Atorasu
how to open skill menu
i did but i didn't find enough people and then everyone left :c
Main menu > character > actions and traits
Yeah that'll happen
Especially because we're only a week away from Endwalker most people are getting ready for that
honestly i think you're kinda sol at this point
default keybind is P
one week away from a new expac and all
or at least I think it is
maybe you can ask in ur free company
no one's really doing learning right now
personally i wouldn't
Makes sense, thanks!
I'd say no but it's your money
me personaly i don't care about stories in games
just i love to grind and doing dungeons and stuff
Fair warning:
Ty

Most of the dungeons and other group content are related to the story
but they says you will be overwhelmed
this is a story based game ultimately so
sure you can have a romp through it without the context
Expect to be disappointed then because most of the dungeons are unlocked via the story and require questing anyways
eeyeah
plus you still have to do the current expansion story
Even if you skip to Shadowbringers
That's the lv71-80 story you gotta go through
and then some in the post-expansion patch content
this isn't a game where you can skip to endgame easily

The first expansion is slow and boring and is only good for about 10/300 quests
how useful is this item
ohh
lol
around 50k on the market if you want to yeet it
Sometimes you get only gil
You make a map group in party finder and open it to get loot
you can get 500k if not more if you get good loot
Timeworn thief maps give upwards of like 750k if you can get to the end
hmm interesting
What rewards are worth that much?
enchanted elm lumber, calf leather off the top of my head
what's the current ilvl/gathering cutoff for max retainer rewards?
!faq retainerbp
Enchanted elm is how people make the flying bed mount
so it would fetch a good price
Enchanted elm lumber is 210-230k. Calf leather is 140-150k. Frontier cloth is 70-80k.
Ah so it is
aether prices
This is ontop of the random mats, raw gil and materia you can sell
today I rolled two of them
Also handful of minions and music sheets
lol there is a stack of 20 lumber for 73.5k each
regular elm, or enchanted elm
enchanted
too poor
is there something important to buy like mounts and stuff
A mount is given as part of the story
as well as others you may happen upon
ohh mounts on store can u get them in the game?
Mounts are very rarely directly bought with gil
Yeah maps contain common crafting materials for that level range, along with materia, crystals, and clusters. A few decorations, emotes, and minions are also available.
You can't even use store mounts until you unlock mounts via the quest

Damn primal got some nice prices for elm lumber
damn this game has no p2w system
there is no winning lul
Adding p2w on it would be fucking stupid
There is PvP I guess but there are so few who legitimately care about it that making it P2W would do more harm than good
where can i buy riding maps for these areas?
With the new updated ToS, does a person who purposefully relocates multiple times in a row once near the 8hour mark for housing opens up to screw others out of the chance to get the house an offence?
One can argue boosting is p2w, until they get rekt and dumped on by Holminster and the unfortunate party respectively

with irregular tomestones from the event
and that's bad?
so i can no longer get them ?
No
iirc allied seals can buy riding maps
i just wanna spend 20 of these
