agile laurel
#

Those places have riding speed increased upon completion of 3/4.0 msq

fleet steppe
#

static yacht
#

to confirm: it is impossible to HQ 4* crafts without HQ pre-crafts, right? (level 80 stuff)

faint flare
#

All zones but shadowbringers do

hot eagle
#

shb also has some you buy them with bicolor gems iirc but only unlocks the first ground speed upgrade

ocean abyss
#

Question. Is there any way to hide the "pet bar" completely? My game is set so that my Bar 1 changes to pet bar. Which is fine, but I also have a 2nd pet bar on my screen that i can't figure out how to hide.

slate arrow

#

Character configuration > hotbar

#

Or hud editor and right click

ocean abyss
#

Ok I'll try that in a sec. Doing Prae so i'm in a cutscene. 😛

#

Ok it was already off in both, so I turned it back on, then off again. So maybe it will stay off now.

#

no really "BiS" for crafters since melds are catered more or less towards what u want to craft, but that's with the high tier set from balance

#

If you're trying to get into crafting and getting pentamelded, don't bother, expansions hits in a week and all those melds will go to waste before u even hit level 90 on crafters

leaden ginkgo
#

my moggle mails was full and i didn't recive my purchase from mogsation what should i do

iron rock
#

clear them out and hit the option to resend mail

leaden ginkgo

I am still on Trial, so I am waiting until the last day to maximise my time on it

iron rock

warped ferry
#

Can the versatile lure catch anything that isn't a special fish?

warm snow
#

I believe so

patent frigate
#

Is there a way I can remove my weapons like not show them will walking around

warped ferry
#

okay, thank you!

patent frigate
#

cuz I wanna make a casual look

warped ferry
patent frigate
#

Oh that was easy

#

thanks lol

warped ferry
#

no prob!

warm snow
cyan kelp
#

I got you Serph

night plank
#

i pre-ordered EW on my pc, i dont have shadowbringers on my pc but i do own the expansions on ps4, basically im switching platforms, steam, i wanted to know if on november 3rd, since i pre ordered it, ill still have acess to EW, or if ill have to wait till december 7th for the official release since i dont own shb on pc and thats the official release date

lethal mist
#

How long is 24h in game equivalent to irl? I always thought it was like 70min or so.

tardy patio
#

because theres one more tuesday reset before endwalker early access, does that mean if I grab a khloe journal now, its my last chance to complete a book, turn it in on reaper, then grab a new book and turn that in on reaper again

tardy patio
#

I cant like grab a book now, complete it, and still do a double book turnin on the 3rd

#

cool thanks

regal pawn
#

you want to save this week's book to double dip next week

cyan kelp
night plank
#

*december 3rd i mean

hot eagle
cyan kelp
hot eagle
#

since the 3,4,5,6 counts as preorder period

cyan kelp
#

I've never paid attention if it's the day it comes out in early launch or not, I would think you could do it right away given there's no reason to hold off

#

You only have a week of play without the key

regal pawn
#

Early Access is 6.0 patch and people who pre-ordered can do EW stuff

#

Actual release is when you can enter the proper EW key from steam and you get all the other expansions

night plank
#

oh so like, every player progress during the early acess is just reset?

regal pawn
#

no

night plank
#

after its over?

#

oh

regal pawn
#

It's a head start

#

people who pre-ordered can go grab sage/reaper, start doing msq and progress through the gear and stuff

#

basically if you pre-ordered and own shb, endwalker starts with EA for you
Otherwise, you gotta wait for actual release to get shb and stb

night plank
#

its pretty stupid to be honest...

cyan kelp
#

Kinda silly how SE handles this

night plank
#

it is

cyan kelp
#

It's overly complicated

regal pawn
#

it is what it is

night plank
#

like now im debating if i should just rebuy shb or wait another week

regal pawn
#

you'll only have to wait like 4 days anyways

cyan kelp
#

You're only waiting until Tuesday

regal pawn
#

yeah

#

EA is on friday
Release is on tuesday

patent frigate
#

Whats the best way to farm allagan tombstones?

hot eagle
#

not like the 3/4 days will hurt since savage ony comes out after 4 weeks

night plank
#

Yea you're right, its really not worth it, just gotta avoid spoilers with all i can

regal pawn
cyan kelp
#

It would be nice for them to give temporary access to all expansions, since they have the EW early access

regal pawn
#

Poetics?

night plank
#

Gives me some more time to get my dragoon to 80 too

iron rock
patent frigate
#

Poetics

night plank
#

thanks for the replies everyone

patent frigate
#

and I just finished arr dunno if I have that

regal pawn
#

Assuming you ffinished HW
Aetherial

cyan kelp
regal pawn
#

Otherwise, iirc there's a lvl 50 dungeon that gives 80 or a 100?

hot eagle
#

!faq poetics

zinc orbitBOT
regal pawn
#

Also your daily MSQ roulette is like 600 if you got daily bonus

iron rock
#

I think the hard dungeons give 100poetics

patent frigate
#

Will the stuff go away in endwalker like inferno jacket?

solemn jewel
#

the mog event will be gone yes

hot eagle
#

yes ends with maintenance

#

so best to spend before

patent frigate
#

How much time do I have left?

iron rock
#

until endwalker releases

patent frigate
#

So a week

hot eagle
#

[Date & Time]
Dec. 2, 2021 9:00 to Dec. 3, 2021 9:00 (GMT)

  • Completion time is subject to change.
iron rock
#

Wait...are u asking about poetics or the tomestones for the event?

hot eagle
#

is the maintenance time

patent frigate
#

Oh I wanted to know how to farm both but someone told me to just keep doing last arr quest

#

so poetics yeah already have a plan for the other one

finite owl
#

So I'm trying to get the Emperors New Gear but the vendor is not selling it. Is there some quest I need to do first to unlock the gear.

meager sigil
#

What are the most profitable items to exchange company seals for?

ionic estuary
#

I have a problem: i don't know what to do with trash loot like fish. As i remember there was a Doma where you could donate trash items and level this area. Did they add something like that in Shadowbringers?

modest igloo
#

Nah

iron rock
meager sigil
#

Alright.

hot eagle
#

you can lvl any crafter to like 15/20 rly fast and cheap with the materials from the npc were you unlocked the crafter

fringe ridge
#

whats the best way to level up BLU at higher levels? (60-70)

hot eagle
fringe ridge
#

ah ok, thanks 👍

finite owl
#

Thanks for the help

opaque fiber
#

Is there a 24h maintenance before EW release?

hasty musk
#

Yes

opaque fiber
#

Kk

finite owl
#

but I got another question can you see the Emperors New Gear

slate arrow
#

it's literally just your character naked

#

The point is it's nothing

finite owl
#

ok

#

Thanks for help

wispy copper
#

if I drink fantasia, the option to change my look will remain until I commit to them, even if I go to the customization page and back out, correct?

twilit arch
#

yes

worn crag
#

yes

#

You have to "confirm" it

haughty topaz
#

for a non steam player from where should i buy EW ?

#

SE Store ?

worn crag
#

Yes

haughty topaz
#

PC Download

#

right ?

open coral
#

Yes

#

That's correct.

patent frigate
#

Should I do hard dungeons blindly

#

arr

open coral
#

You can.

regal pawn
#

Despite the name, they're not hard

haughty topaz
#

my country isnt listed 🙂

faint flare
#

Hard tag means nothing

#

It's just another dungeon

open coral
#

Some of them have individual mechanics on bosses that could be considered harder than regular dungeon mechanics.

faint flare
#

No difference in difficulty, just in the same location but different layout and bosses

open coral
#

But from a scaled level, they're on-par with anything else as long as you've got the appropriate gear for them.

patent frigate
#

alright thanks

haughty topaz
slim lion
#

Anyone has a advice on what to spend clusters on, Odin Server?

queen gulch
#

is there a dyeable version of the sharlayan coat?

leaden ginkgo
#

So I just bought EW standard on steam, and just redeemed the pre order bonus, I tried to use the standard edition code but it says its invalid, will I be able to use it only when EW comes out?

faint flare
#

Yes

leaden ginkgo
#

Cool, ty

willow sparrow
#

Will you need to register a second code after Early Access for full game?

slate arrow
opaque fiber
slate arrow
#

I say probably as this is the first only digital release of an FFXIV expansion

willow sparrow
#

aha

leaden ginkgo
#

One for the pre order bonus and one for the actual expansion, its super unnecessary to have 2 codes but w/e

slate arrow
#

Well formerly it was because the EA code is to give physical preorders a grace period for their actual game code to arrive

willow sparrow
#

2 codes? I only got 1

leaden ginkgo
#

Where did you buy it?

slate arrow
#

The actual code will be given to you via your storefront once EA arrives

#

That being said Steam and PSN give you it already

willow sparrow
#

storefront?

slate arrow
#

This is only for the SE store as far as I'm aware

willow sparrow
#

I bought digital

slate arrow
#

yes but where

#

There's SE, GMG, HB, Newegg

willow sparrow
#

square store

slate arrow
#

Then you'll be given it in your Orders page once EA is out

willow sparrow
#

so they send an email?

slate arrow
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

#

Usually they charge you when your code is ready

#

I've been charged and I have no updates on my EW code

willow sparrow
#

I've already paid in full

slate arrow
#

so just check your SE store account orders page after EA is out

#

EA is a grace period after all

hoary kayak
#

been charged and got mine like a week ago

slate arrow
#

oh neat

#

I'll have to check later then

willow sparrow
#

by email, or do you have to go check the store page manually?

opaque fiber
#

What if I always checkout as guest?

slate arrow
willow sparrow
#

alright

slate arrow
willow sparrow
#

man they're really taking 5 steps when only 1 is needed

opaque fiber
#

It has 1 code, I'll get another mail when EW is out?

slate arrow
covert patio
#

Is there a way I can auto sort my inventory like world of Warcraft

hoary kayak
#

got my invoice per mail and a link at the bottom that redirects you to the SE store basically

leaden ginkgo
covert patio
#

Dang I’m so stupid thanks

wispy copper
#

is it a good idea to start fishing for Hybodus at my highest job being 50

#

assuming thats what i wanna do

slate arrow
#

As long as you have access to the zones you can do whatever

wispy copper
#

will I have access to the zones at that level I have no clue how fishing works

#

it'd be my first time fishing

slate arrow
#

Okay so all crafters and gatherers have their own independent level

#

You'll have to level them up by gathering, though your Class Quests and Leves let you level them faster by having you create or gather specific items

#

Once you hit 60 and complete the 3.3 MSQ in Heavensward, you gain access to Ishgard Restoration which is also another source of EXP

#

Except for Job Advancements and Arcanist jobs (Summoner and Scholar) nothing shares EXP

wispy copper
#

so do I need to be 60?

slate arrow
#

Specifically you need any combat job at 60 to complete the 3.3 MSQ

#

As 3.3 is the final arc of the Heavensward stories

#

but that's if you wish to use the Restoration to level your fisher

wispy copper
#

how much harder will it be to do it without restoration? in what way does the level impact how I get the mount

slate arrow
#

OH THE MOUNT

#

well you can certainly try but there's a lot of useful skills behind job quests

#

I personally wouldn't recommend trying for it until you hit 80 for both maximum GP and the skills

wispy copper
#

I see

slate arrow
#

anything less and you'll have to both get lucky with the boat and cross your fingers RNG is on your side because well

#

Fishing

sonic gazelle
#

is the endwalker early access just some kind of beta test? or will stuff from the beta test carry over to the "official release"

lone totem
#

early access is just a way to disclaim problems with the servers

slate arrow
leaden ginkgo
#

does colectibles give you more exp when youre mining ects or when you hand them in

slate arrow
#

that being said it's mostly just grandfathered in now since it's all digital now

sonic gazelle
#

gotcha, ty all

leaden ginkgo
cyan kelp
#

All progress carries over

solemn jewel
#

When early access starts all changes except the new Quests n classes are live for everyone

leaden ginkgo
#

cause im getting nothing out here

cyan kelp
#

Unless Yoshi decides to rollback everyone...

#

👀

slate arrow
#

unless something catastrophicly breaks rollbacks don't happen

cyan kelp
#

They've only done 1 rollback

slate arrow
#

that being said they did delay it for QA reasons so

cyan kelp
#

As I recall

#

That was at the very start of the game when it came out

#

It's the climax of the story, there'll won't be many issues I'd imagine, given how important this expansion is storywise, and the fact Yoshi is making sure everything is ready to go

warm snow
lone totem
#

from 1.0 to 2.0

#

everyone was reset to Level 1

slate arrow
#

no

cyan kelp
warm snow
#

I think that goes a wee bit beyond a rollback

lone totem
#

oh that one

#

yeah that was weird

warm snow
opaque fiber
#

If I test a rotation on teamcraft, can I export it as a macro somehow?

cyan kelp
#

Battle macros don't work

opaque fiber
#

teamcraft is crafting

cyan kelp
#

Omg

opaque fiber
#

XD

cyan kelp
#

I need coffee

opaque fiber
#

ohh I found the generate ingame macro button!

cyan kelp
#

I'm glad we came to a resolution lol

opaque fiber
#

XD

past verge
faint flare
#

They'll be adjusted

#

But crafting yes

#

Cause you can still make hq

past verge
#

Bleh well thankfully that's easier than HQ gathering

spiral mango
#

should I skip the roulettes not mentioned there and go straight to dungeons ?

faint flare
#

Yes

spiral mango
#

alright

worn crag
#

So if it was 15 HQ, 30-45NQ

waxen siren
#

Because it seems to hand out decent xp and usually doesn’t take more than 6-10 mins depending on which raid series you get

faint flare
#

It's meh

viscid nexus
#

So uh. How do I place retainers in my apartment? I know you can put them in. I'm in an apartment right now with one.

faint flare
#

They're outdoor furniture

#

Not inside

sudden mango
#

hey is there a good website with a gallery of weapon glamour ?

viscid nexus
#

That's a retainer. In an apartment.

#

And my FC house has tons of retainers.

#

Not mine but the FC I'm in.

faint flare
#

Those are normal npcs

#

Not retainers

#

Those are via the permit things

viscid nexus
#

Then are you unable to customize them?

faint flare
#

No

#

They're set

#

Based on race and gender

#

And the permit used

viscid nexus
#

Rip. That's a shame. I'll need to look up the different housing NPCs. That explains a lot.

ruby lagoon
#

hi, I switched job from lancer to rouge and I want to continue doing MSQ with rouge but I need to be level 15 to do it. any tips on how to level up fast?

faint flare
#

!faq altlvlguide

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

Basically do your hunting logs

viscid nexus
#

^

ruby lagoon
#

Thank you!

viscid nexus
#

I can agree.

#

Anyway, yeah. Thanks for clearing that up.

cyan kelp
#

I've never done my hunting logs

#

👀

viscid nexus
#

Imagine

cyan kelp
#

I've done every side quest in the game

#

I think I've suffered enough XD

heady vortex
#

what do i do when im leveling a healer and im not comfortable with a tank doing massive pulls, but im on ps4 and cant type fast enough before they run off and start fighting

hard aurora
#

erm

#

try to type it before the dungeon starts i suppose

#

ye thatll work

#

say youre newish to healing or something

heady vortex
#

oh does it not get removed if i pretype it?

hard aurora
#

im actually not sure lol

#

try it

heady vortex
#

ill try next time i queue for something im bad at (which could be very soon lol)

cyan kelp
#

You can pre type

#

Or make a macro

#

Macro would make the most sense to me

#

Type it once, never type it again

#

Though you should really invest in a keyboard for your PS4, it'll make a huge difference to how you interact with people

remote lintel
#

@heady vortex make a macro

heady vortex
#

i should do those it would help a lot

cyan kelp
#

Cerberus stole my answer

#

Where do I file my claim?

heady vortex
#

but man
this experience makes me respect healers, way more how do yall do this all the time lol

cyan kelp
#

Just takes practice

#

You'll build up the confidence over time

#

You'll also be better geared, so it won't feel as bad

heady vortex
#

ah yea true

cyan kelp
#

Most competent tanks will pay attention to the first pull and see if a healer is struggling

#

And pull smaller after that

heady vortex
#

im a tank main that tries not to pull every enemy in existence so healers done hate me but then theres tanks like, that guy
who did none of that

cyan kelp
#

If needed

#

It's the norm to do wall to wall pulls

#

In later dungeons

heady vortex
#

i struggled to heal him cuz of how massive he pulled, and he was laggy

#

so aggro kept dropping too

cyan kelp
#

👀

#

Did he have tank stance on?

heady vortex
#

yea, he would just lag and freeze in place for a full min or so at a time

cyan kelp
#

Ooooooof

remote lintel
#

if it's an experienced healer then pull as much as you want

heady vortex
#

and also
never, used, the defense cool downs-

remote lintel
#

yeah he sucks

cyan kelp
#

I had a Tank that did that to me once

#

I let them die

remote lintel
#

you get some tanks with the WoW mentality

raven bolt
#

Competent tanks should also know what dungeons have mobs that smack the hardest too

#

Cough bardams mettle cough

cyan kelp
#

Context, he was trash talking me for dpsing and keeping him alive

heady vortex
#

oh damn

remote lintel
#

I had the same thing lmao

#

expected me to spam physick on him

#

instead of dpsing

cyan kelp
#

The mere fact he used no cooldowns means he lost the fight before it begun

heady vortex
#

im just so rusty at healers...ive leveled one before but they are changing that job so im learning a new one all over again cuz it has, also been mutiple months since i tried healing at all

cyan kelp
#

I had the moral high ground on both accounts

slate arrow
sweet yacht
#

Will you be able to join FC feom different world on Endwalker?

slate arrow
#

no

slate arrow
#

FCs are still home world bound

sweet yacht
#

Shit

heady vortex
#

i figured

raven bolt
#

Just play warrior

#

Be your own healer

cyan kelp
#

You misspelled Paladin

remote lintel
#

warrior has better self healing without crapping your dps kek

#

esp for aoes

cyan kelp
#

I'll take the higher survivability over dps

slate arrow
#

I think the point of the channel has ran away from y'all at this point

heady vortex
#

yea lmao

remote lintel
#

I forgot this channel is stricter

slate arrow
#

understandable I'm busy with Thanksgiving stuff

#

Just keep the lounges in mind next time

uncut quarry
#

Is EW going to make crafting simpler?

slate arrow
#

Just the removal of HQ materials you can gather

uncut quarry
#

heard someone ask smthn bout it being a synthesis grind

uncut quarry
#

why would they do that??

slate arrow
#

because inventory space is limited and people hoard materials they don't need

#

leading on that raw HQ Mats will also no longer give a quality bonus

#

HQ precrafts still will

uncut quarry
#

precrafts?

slate arrow
#

like ingots and leather

vernal urchin
#

when you craft crafting material

uncut quarry
#

right

vernal urchin
#

so you can craft while you craft

uncut quarry
#

okay so it doesn't sound too bad

slate arrow
#

It won't be changing how I craft stuff anyways since I only need HQ alc mats and HQ aethersand which is guaranteed

uncut quarry
#

but the HQ gathering stuff was the best part of gathering

#

the other job quests were lowkey go get 99 wood

slate arrow
#

good news you'll have more yield up abilities so those will be less of a grind

uncut quarry
#

yea but now there's nothing much to look fwd to in gathering

vernal urchin
#

collectables will still be around

slate arrow
#

That's debatable and probably outside the scope of being a question at this point

#

Point is for a crafter like me yield up will help overall since I never bothered with HQ

#

Always downgraded my materials to save on inventory space haha

uncut quarry
#

cudve just increased inventory space

slate arrow
#

to show you the power of increased inventory space I snapped this server in half

boreal storm
#

Do you know how much fish is in my inventory after a single ocean fishing trip

#

Too much

uncut quarry
slate arrow
#

ocean fishing shouldn't take any more than half a page

#

And there's no reason to keep ocean fish around

uncut quarry
#

im scared to go ocean fishing now

slate arrow
#

you have retainers for a reason

#

unless you're on the free trial in which case good luck

uncut quarry
lone totem
#

does free trial have access to the choco saddle bag?

faint flare
#

Yes cause they get companions

Looking at the stats, probably a bit better than the two, but you won’t get much use out of it as a non-BLU.

is there a way to change the class here?

Since everything is predetermined

they don't have the animations for Warrior in it for example

bronze hedge
#

I'm level 55

#

When is the main story starting?

#

And I dont mean that sensless crystal thing

slate arrow
#

msq these are the main story

bronze hedge
#

Yes but that looks more like skip skip skip skip skip

#

I need a real story 😦

slate arrow
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

faint flare
#

It's not

slate arrow
#

There's a lot of setup in ARR

warm snow
#

Crystal tower is plot importsnt

faint flare
#

Welcome to world building

warm snow
#

And all the shit you're skipping is also plot important

agile laurel
#

if it isn't plot important it's not the MSQ

slate arrow
#

*it's not required

molten dome
#

crystal tower is very plot important trust

warm snow
#

This is the main story

molten dome
#

pay attention to the characters atleast

bronze hedge
#

So I killed those imperial re***, I cant find better words to describe them, I got that nice cutscene with the red crystal of light (Much cooler), what is next?

warm snow
#

It's currently building up to stuff

agile laurel
#

literally what you're doing

hasty musk
#

How about

#

Soldiers?

#

Invaders?

leaden ginkgo
#

Or imperial bastards if you must

warm snow
#

If you're implying the word I think you're implying

leaden ginkgo
#

They do

slate arrow
#

they are doze

agile laurel
#

this reads like bait anyway, the answer has been said - it is story, like it or not

warm snow
#

Sigh

agile laurel
#

if you're inclined to skip it all then this may not be the best game for you

bronze hedge
#

But did I finished at least the main story, the one pre expansion?

agile laurel
#

a. not the.

warm snow
#

The patch content you're doing now

#

Is still the main story

slate arrow
#

It's a linear sequence you can't just cherry pick

leaden ginkgo
#

There's no pre-expansion story you can do

warm snow
#

It's more story from a realm reborn, and the build up to heavensward

#

All mandatory

bronze hedge
#

So I'm in the stormblood or whatever the expansion is named?

hasty musk
#

No

warm snow
#

All important to the story

leaden ginkgo
#

Nope lol

agile laurel
#

you are still in basegame

hasty musk
#

You're still in ARR

warm snow
#

You're still in a realm reborn

leaden ginkgo
#

Not even Heavensward

bronze hedge
#

I have to suffer more then 😦

leaden ginkgo
#

Yes

bronze hedge
#

LOL

slate arrow
#

well you don't have to play FFXIV if you don't want to

bronze hedge
#

I wont make it until the expansion hits 😦

agile laurel
#

there's a reason it's called the filter

slate arrow
#

the point isn't to rush to the end game

bronze hedge
#

But I want to, really

warm snow
#

That's your choice

agile laurel
#

if you don't like story based games then it might not be for you

hasty musk
#

There's no point in rushing anyway

warm snow
#

Content isn't going anywhere

leaden ginkgo
#

Tbh post-ARR is a pain in the arse. It gets better near the end but otherwise it was a snooze for me too

bronze hedge
#

Yes, I dont rush, but I feel like the delivery guy

agile laurel
#

skipping through to endgame doesn't really achieve anything

bronze hedge
#

Go to x, go to y......

slate arrow
#

If you're skipping everything we can't help you

leaden ginkgo
#

Yep

hasty musk
#

You are the delivery guy, that's not gonna change

faint flare
#

Don't focus on objectives

leaden ginkgo
#

Warrior of Light more like Errandboy/girl of Light

bronze hedge
#

Like I only did the main story and a few blue exclamation mark quests as well, it's just not all that interesting, the main story so far and I tried to follow

warm snow
#

If you boil it down to that, all games are just you being a delivery guy, you just sometimes have to fight between deliveries

slate arrow
#

For what it's worth you show more initiative in the cutscenes in the expansion quests

#

But that's a result of the character and world building in the patch quests

bronze hedge
#

So when do I enter the main story of the expansions? At what level?

leaden ginkgo
slate arrow
#

whenever you finish the ARR patch quests

leaden ginkgo
#

Not tied to level

slate arrow
#

level =/= content access

boreal storm
#

Which are lvl 50 quests

warm snow
bronze hedge
#

Ok, so now I'm doing some quests that give me little xp and some blue gear

#

Ah

#

I understood

faint flare
#

That's post arr

bronze hedge
#

So I have to do the main story no mater what

faint flare
#

That's 80 quest total + hard mode primals and crystal tower

warm snow
#

And while you're in patch content, which you are now your exp gains will be shit, because this was all level cap content

faint flare
#

It's mandatory yes

slate arrow
#

eyup

warm snow
#

It didn't give exp in the first place

bronze hedge
#

Got it

leaden ginkgo
#

You are right now in what's called the Seven Astral Era, it's the collection of post ARR patch quests which leads up to Heavensward

grim maple
#

well you can buy a story skip lol

#

if you really wanted to

bronze hedge
#

I didnt wanted to skip the story

hasty musk
#

It wouldn't be worth it at this point

bronze hedge
#

Until I did it

leaden ginkgo
#

It's obscenely long even though they cut out like 12 quests

bronze hedge
#

:)))

slate arrow
#

I wouldn't recommend viewing this game like a checklist as is other MMORPGs because this game is still a mainline FF game first and foremost

faint flare
#

Post arr ending catches everyone

bronze hedge
#

I just want to heal in raids/dungeons...

grim maple
#

well you can

#

that wont be an issue

leaden ginkgo
#

Post-ARR is what I call the filter, you either break or break through and reach HW

slate arrow
#

you're still going to have to do the current expansion story regardless so might as well settle in and enjoy the ride

#

You've paid for it already anyways

bronze hedge
#

Yes, but I wish to be in the relevant content, not in the 1 century ago era 🙂

slate arrow
#

This is relevant

#

That's why roulettes exist

bronze hedge
#

What is roulette?

faint flare
#

Forces people into old content for stuff

slate arrow
#

you queue for all content within that catagory in exchange for bonus rewards + first time bonus if there's a new player

grim maple
slate arrow
#

Scaled to your level as well

grim maple
#

that's how it is

agile laurel
#

Unlike some other MMOs, new content is additive not subtractive

#

Content does not get less relevant by time

slate arrow
#

There isn't as much as people say that currently exists at the endgame. personally I had more fun leveling alternate jobs and doing old content for their collectibles

agile laurel
#

Or at least, most of it doesn't

slate arrow
#

by focusing only on the max level content you've missed like, 80% of the actual game

#

Being an MMORPG doesn't change the fact this is still a final fantasy game

#

A mainline one at that

warm snow
#

A mainline final fantasy better than its previous 3 entries, but that's just my opinion

hasty musk
#

Being at endgame content also doesn't mean shit cause you don't actually miss anything for being there earlier other than getting your stuff earlier

bronze hedge
#

Guys, what about those blue exclamation mark quests?

#

Are those important?

faint flare
#

Unlocks stuff

agile laurel
#

ignorable if you feel like it

slate arrow
#

those unlock content

warm snow
zinc orbitBOT
#
What do all these quest icons mean?

msq - These are how you reach the endgame and every other bit of content is locked behind it to some extent. MANDATORY
bluequest - These unlock a feature, instanced content, job actions, or a thing that is important for you to have. Do the ones related to your job/class and ones that unlock new content
sidequest - These usually have very little exp/gil as reward and are usually just part of the world/lore expansion. Mostly optional unless you are interested in doing them for the fluff
repeatquest - These are quests you can do more than once, how often you can repeat it is up to the individual quest.

agile laurel
#

not of consequence if you don't do them

#

but often useful/interesting

slate arrow
#

Usually important, but you can ignore the ones which unlock extreme trials, classes and coils of bahamut for now

agile laurel
#

in Heavensward and onward, it's worth at least glancing at them because some will have rewards you will require in order to fly in the zones

#

not for ARR though.

bronze hedge
#

I had this extremely annoying blue quest, with a dude that was doing poses and some cat lady and it kept coming back over and over

lone totem
#

lol

bronze hedge
#

I abandoned it after the 3rd quest in line or so

warm snow
#

That's a comic relief side story

#

Good fjn

#

But optional

faint flare
#

It's a comedy quest line

bronze hedge
#

OMG

slate arrow
#

Hildebrand is 90% cutscenes and shenanigans

bronze hedge
#

Was that supposed to be fun 😮

lone totem
#

it also has trials locked behind it

faint flare
#

Yes

lone totem
#

three of them in fact

sudden wolf
#

Yes haha

faint flare
#

Like a Saturday cartoon

warm snow
#

Have you heard of comedy?

#

You know, shenanigans ensue

bronze hedge
#

Yes, but that's not my kind of comedy

warm snow
#

Like Tom and jerey

#

Or three stooges

#

Not saying its for everyone, but that's what it is

bronze hedge
#

I already deeply dislike the small mouse like, gimp-ish little ppl

warm snow
#

Actually, the naked gun movies would be a closer equivalent

slate arrow
#

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

bronze hedge
#

And not so found of the beast like ppl as well, not into waifu and the half naked elf chicks, I wanted more of a wow experience where I go, do some shit in 3 hours and then start dungeoning 😄

#

To be honest

slate arrow
#

This ain't wow

#

This is final fantasy

warm snow
#

This ain't wow

agile laurel
#

then you won't find it

warm snow
#

It's never been wow

spiral ridge
#

Will the armoury bonus for 70-80 be raised to 100% as soon as EW launches ?

warm snow
#

It's never gonna be wow

bronze hedge
#

Damn

faint flare
#

Yes

spiral ridge
#

Thanks

warm snow
bronze hedge
#

Well, it does have skills to press, a tank/dps/healer concept...

agile laurel
#

well, unless you want a detox.

warm snow
#

This is a final fantasy game that happens to be an mmo

slate arrow
#

that's not original to any mmorpg

bronze hedge
#

Not much to choose from nowadays

warm snow
boreal storm
#

That’s just normal party comps

agile laurel
#

wow players are gravitating to FFXIV because it doesn't have the glaring issues WoW currently does, and is more respectful of its playerbase.

not because it's the same game but better

bronze hedge
#

Probably, they just so happen to implement it in the best way, at least they did, 6 years ago

slate arrow
#

If you want to immediately start doing big quests I'd recommend Guild Wars 2 or ESO

#

This is an MMORPG that's also a mainline final fantasy game

warm snow
#

Trinity systems have been in rpgs for decades, long before the Internet even existed

agile laurel
#

man, can we not just post hot takes in #questions-and-help like we have done for the past 20 minutes

slate arrow
#

Expecting it to be anything else you'll be disappointed

bronze hedge
#

I think their point is they reached end game in GW2

bronze hedge
#

ESO has no combat system, like seriously, I love the voice acting the meaningful quests and overall game design, but seriously, pressing 12345 swap 12345 with light attack weaving in between... That sh** is depressing

leaden ginkgo
#

Something I myself felt in several MMOs, except FFXIV

bronze hedge
#

Thank you for the tips, anyway!

sullen cloud
#

Hey all, question regarding the update in 6.0, are all exp that was mentioned in the letter, going to be slower, or is it just some kind of adjustment?

faint flare
#

Just smaller numbers

warm snow
#

All exp requirements for levelling are being reduced, all exp gain is being reduced

slate arrow
warm snow
#

Should be about the same overall timewise

slate arrow
#

however the time spent per level will be about the same

#

It's just a numbers squish

#

and a slight increase due to the removal of the belt slot

#

Since they're using an algorithm to automate the squish

warm snow
#

And due to all the required calculations, any progress towards a level is being deleted during the maintenance

#

Say you were level 71 with 1 million exp toward 72, you're going to be 71 with 0 exp toward 72 after maintenance

#

Blue mage or regular classes?

When given a choice, blue mage is almost always better than any other job at an equivalent level

Anyone know what the circled furniture items are?

warm snow

I'm pretty sure it renews before expiration

And each renewal is a purchase of 30 days of game time

#

So cancelling your sub doesn't remove that game time

#

Since its already been purchased

Is it possible to just copy over a Windows install to another PC?

Wait
I can't even download the client if I don't have active subscription?
I just wanna download the client first so once I buy subscription I can start playing immediately

#

Does that 3rd party launcher allow me to download the client regardless of subscription situation?

slate arrow
#

nope

#

still uses the official servers

#

which requires a subscription

iron pewter
#

45GB is an entire day's worth of download

slate arrow
#

For what it's worth XIVLauncher uses the torrenting approach when it comes to files so it'll probably be faster

iron pewter
#

my internet connection tops out at about 1.5MBps so

#

Hmmm can I log in using a free trial account to download the game?

#

then switch to my real account to actually play?

slate arrow
#

Assuming you have shadowbringers, no, you'll still need to download the expansions afterward

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

There's always gonna be that type of shit, but a price tag makes it less accessible

#

Playing the free trial, and almost at the end of realm reborn, should I wait till the end of heavensward to buy the complete game? And are there any chance of a steam promotion for ffxiv during christmas ?

warm snow
#

Severely doubt that as the new expansion launch in...

174.5 hours

#

Will put the game in high demand over the Christmas period

dusk merlin
#

Is there a good way to level BLU solo that doesn't take forever?

limber hound
#

Get a mate, go to an area with lv70 mobs

#

aggro a mob and let them kill it afterward

warm snow
#

He did say solo

limber hound
#

ah derp

dusk merlin
#

That's the problem, I don't know anyone haha

limber hound
#

No FC?

warm snow
#

And the answer to that is, kill overworld mobs 2-3 levels above you

dusk merlin
#

FC is all clubbers

#

They don't really do content

warm snow
#

Blu gets 10x exp from overworld mobs

obsidian patio
#

I recommend killing the same level as you if you have the Missile spell

#

That’ll speed up kills massively

limber hound
#

Any noteworthy spells you got?

I pretty much just have drill cannons as far as damage doing spells goes

This should have everything you need

so i need to get those bj earrings then

Just bite the bullet and find another one, wish those dudes well but say its too quiet or something

Was that deleted character on jenova?

Cause the backend probably hasn't updated yet, it's abit slow on that

Anyone familiar with the market board? I got a few questions about how the tax works

honest anvil
#

i asked about that some time ago and was told “doesn’t matter”

slate arrow
#

Both parties are taxes regardless now and the tax is now more or less the same across all markets

gray fern
#

Is there a picture data center for all the dancer weapons?

honest anvil
#

no gil making guide emphasizes that aspect either

boreal storm
zealous wigeon
#

it's 50k per 1m you trade

honest anvil
#

50k is indeed .. doesn’t matter …

zealous wigeon
#

Yeah depends on how much you sell on MB

#

For me, I've lost 1.5m to taxes so far, that's pretty huge

honest anvil
#

but you made 28.5m then?

#

or sth

#

so that 1.5m doesn’t matter compared to how much you made still …

slate arrow
#

You can't really game the system anyways unless you want to take your chances on party finder

#

You can't avoid taxes

#

The irs is built into the mb

#

It's too unpredictable to bother trying to optimizer in the first place

#

And finally there's pretty much never a retainer location without taxes, unless there's a massive inbalance

#

Like the great wow refugee flood of 2021

#

But that's already settled anyways

smoky glade
#

is the character creation in the benchmark final or is it still subject to change? I noticed the female viera from live servers have the same skin color palette as the male viera in the benchmark, but they apply differently. like it's just.. duller and weird on the male for the same shade

warm snow
#

But enough that you can hammer out most of the details in advance

zealous wigeon
# honest anvil but you made 28.5m then?

That's not really the point, I flip items so a 5% margin increase is actually really really good. If I'm making 5% on a flip minus taxes, it straight doubles my profits which is nuts. But yeah, not everyone thinks that way.

smoky glade
#

okay that's good ty, it's really just the skin color i'm picky with lol

#

they're either too white or too dark or too yellow or too blue

slate arrow
#

there is literally nothing else to spend gil on so like make your point please

#

Unless you try selling shit via pf and trades you're not gonna avoid the taxes consistently and at that point you're losing more gil via wasted time

At least not consistently

And probably not at all, no location on twin has a 0% tax rate

True, in fact, the more people don't care about it, the better it is for me since it'll stay low

Is there any significant difference in playing on ps4 or ps5? Wondering if i should even buy a ps5 just to play

faint flare
#

Just to play, no

Just looks nicer and loads abit faster iirc

leaden ginkgo
#

slate arrow
#

leaden ginkgo
#

outer lodge
#

fastest way to farm raw emotions for last relic weapon step? (other than me crying from the pain of having to farm this)

faint flare
#

Speedrun DR or hells lid

lone briar
#

i used a fantasia potion but i cant change my characters appearance, took my equipments off as well. Does it just take a while?

outer lodge
#

log out i believe

#

I havent used a fantasia yet

#

but I think it's supposed to log you out?

lone briar
#

i logged out and logged back in, didnt get the option to

limber hound
#

Pop the fanta, unequip everything

faint flare
#

Character selection > right click character

#

Edit

lone briar
#

dont have the edit option

faint flare
#

Everything has to be removed except weapon

lone briar
#

did that as well, my character's naked af rn with a book on the hip lol

heavy wadi
#

squint did you remove your accessories

#

else it sounds like you didn't actually use the fanta

lone briar
#

pretty sure i did, lemme check

#

yup got no accessories

limber hound
#

iirc when I fanta'd, I went into an inn and did the full undress

#

Then the option appeared on the right-click menu after logging out

heavy wadi
#

you don't need to go anywhere specific for a fanta.

limber hound
#

Not sure if the location matters

#

but iirc the option remains open until you re-enter the character editor, so it's not wholly wasted

lone briar
#

yeah hopefully, imma just give it some time and hope i get the option soon

limber hound
#

Just to confirm, you're right-clicking your char at this screen, correct?

lone briar
#

yup

limber hound
lone briar
#

i do have connection as "Poor"

limber hound
#

Then aside from the fanta not being used yet, I guess try again later

lone briar
#

yeah hopefully it works that way, i appreciate you all for helping tho :D

limber hound
#

take the time to make a new char appearance

#

unless you've already done so, then

chilly briar
#

How many ARR zeta relic wepaons are there?

lone briar
#

ah as in make a new character, save it then upload it onto my current character?

limber hound
steep egret
#

one for every class id assume

chilly briar
#

Why I am asking

limber hound
steep egret
faint flare
#

There's 7 expansion jobs

#

So

#

8 counting blue

steep egret
#

10 ARR jobs

chilly briar
lone briar
steep egret
#

i usually recommend, starting a new char with your new appearance first, to make sure you are really happy with it
some things look different, in-game vs the char creator
i especially like to see their expressions/emotes and its caused me to change my mind on using a fantasia before

#

also remember you can change scenery and rotate the character in the creator, left click and drag mouse, rotates the char, right click and drag rotates the camera

How hard is UCOB Ultimate these days, if you are brand new to Ultimates (but not EX/Savage)?

#

Mechanical wise, I mean

faint flare
#

It will still can spiral into a wipe if you die at the wrong placr

slate arrow
#

you're still resetting to the beginning every wipe

faint flare
#

That hasn't changed

slate arrow
#

The only thing that got easier is the DPS check

faint flare
#

Do mechanics or wipe

leaden ginkgo
#

So I can assume an average of 100 hours or so to clear UCOB?

#

That seems to be the common number I see

faint flare
#

In an average group

slate arrow
#

Depends on your team competency and who's already completed it but yes

faint flare
#

Overall consistency etc

#

How many dumb nael wipes etc

slate arrow
#

thankfully it's mostly a mechanic check instead of a puzzle check since people know how the gotcha mechanic works

leaden ginkgo
#

One more question, in Ultimate fights, are skill cooldowns persistent between bosses or do they reset?

modest igloo
#

persistant

leaden ginkgo
#

I assume the first

modest igloo
#

its one long fight

leaden ginkgo
#

Fair

real sequoia
#

when is allagon tombstones unlocked? I turned level 50 but I don't see how much i have in the currency popup

modest igloo
#

beat 2.0 msq

real sequoia
#

i see thats why

#

yh im trying to do an msq close to endgame but im lacking in ilvl

modest igloo
#

make sure to do your job quests

#

they give you i90 gear

real sequoia
#

yeah i did my level 50 job quest to get my dragoon gear

#

but im still lacking in ilvl sadly

#

probably the belt is the reason

modest igloo
#

ye then grab some accs from the shops

real sequoia
#

accs? sorry im still kinda a newbie

modest igloo
#

accessories

real sequoia
#

oooh, gotcha

crude cape
#

If I normally play on PC, is there any way to play on a Mac with my same account/login?

#
