coils of bahamut is closure for the story of 1.0
best to bring a buddy to those if you have one
cool, thanks for the advice
coil basically won't ever be mandatory unless they go in and adjust it
i think turn9 is the only one that destroys solo players
because of its oneshot mechanic in the end phase
you have to either burst it down very fast or cheese it with BLU so you dont even get the last phase
https://ffxivteamcraft.com/db/en/item/4885/Blue-Octopus
It doesn't say what lure or bait to use?
Also what's the difference between lure and bait apart form lure being multi user?
basically that
one is mechanical so it doesnt get 'eaten'
it's a bit wonky but this means it's from mooching
strange that it doesnt list mooch chains
the angler site did
quick question for anyone who's preordered a FFXIV expac on console before, I'm concerned because of the "your purchase has been delayed until the 7th" notification I got on PSN. I know it's bc of the delay, but I also know early access is this Friday, so this worries me. Am I still gonna be able to do Early Access for Endwalker or am I screwed and my PTO time is to be wasted?
You are good for early access, it’s just 7th is still the official launch
okay, thank you
alright let me clarify a few things for endwalker prep
is today ( monday ) the last day to try and get 9 seals without intercepting with challenge log ?
as BLM should I be basically watching the firestarter proc like a hawk? it seems to proc sooooo late into the cast, it's very awkward to use right away
so i end up using it after the next cast
You win't trigger it that often at endgame
i know but still
I usually save it for refreshing astral or if I need to move.
feels half-baked
It's lower dps than than fire4,
still have to use it while leveling and synced
BLM feels bad at lower levels, Endwalker will fix some things.
But in general (not an expert) for Fire3 proccs (firestarter), save it for either Refreshing Astral Fire, or for movement.
ok number 2 can i save up daily hunts ? if so how many ?
the ones you have on you dont expire
and you can always pick up this day's hunts
so if you picked it up and didnt do it you can do both sets one after another later
so i can have them from everyday this week ?
picking one up replaces currently held
how does WT work
ok i see
but you can finish before replacing
!faq wondroustails
Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.
Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.
Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!
so ultimately it's random?
best odd are... making at least a line in the middle?
No, each spot is mutually exclusive equal rng
get to 7 and then spend your second chances rerolling until you get something decent
and then pray the last two go into the spots you want
oh
you know the text that sometimes come in the middle of your screen during a trial/raid/dungeon etc? is there any way to move that
@flat basalt just noticed
this window lists mooch chains
a very confusing website
So I did the mooching chain and I got this fish.
But I couldn't continue the mooching chain.
Are there 2x or 3x mooching chain or are all of them 1?
Thanks I noticed as well.
Though I I just want to point out, I used different bait than Lugworm
One fish left
usually can catch everything basic in that fishing place
Oh ok, I should be using that then, I have some 99 of them.
How do I tell if something is rare or what?
basically have to check lol
there's a bajilion fish in this game
and 99% of them serve zero purpose
no recipes, no nothing
just desynth or vendor
or aquarium if you're into that
Nah I wanted something that synergise well with cooking/culinary
there's very few fish that are used for cooking
I have two questions.
What is that spawn timer for and what is it based on? Server time? UTC?
And does this mean I need a harbor herring of HQ quality to chain? I guess all mooch requires HQ.
it's autoconverted the Eorzea time spawn time into your computer time
Mooch requires HQ
Mooch 2 consumes GP but can be used with NQ
Until you unlock non hq mooch ability but its expensive
Hi I want to ask when do I start to focus on gearing up?
On 1st class or an alt
what is the best way to farm for gears?
What is NQ?
@flat basalt also note that fish with specific spawn times usually are 'endgame' fish for that expansion
normal quality
so you won't be able to catch them in leveling gear
as it required basically top of the line gear to catch it during that expansion
they're spread all over the continent
Hold on, is it assuming I am on EU server or is the spawntime the same for all servers?
I'm trying to pick up Missile from Battle in the Big Keep. Is it really at the end of the Hildebrand quest line?
Yes
eorzea time is same for all servers
Ah ok, thanks
I am trying to catch this one.
I did mooch and get the correct Harbor Herring but it failed after the chain
also, eorzea weather is deterministic and has a set rotation
Is it pointless to do now? Do I need to wait for the spawn timer?
green rarity fish are big fish
Wait for the timer
you will need at least level cap gear of that expansion to catch it
You wont get it under current conditions
0 chance to do it in leveling gear
They are fixing the bullcrap windows for fish in ew tho
best to just use the next expansion's gear
Some of them have like...5min windows every 6hrs
as you would have to use food buffs to have a chance of catching it in 'relevant' gear
And thats irl time too
Personal hell
experimentation crowdsourcing bruteforcing
I am lvl 25 with no gear basically.
Yeah dont bother
So this fish is impossible https://ffxivteamcraft.com/db/en/item/7707/Octomammoth ?
absolutely
Go do ocean fishing until you hit 80 tbh
any green rarity fish is impossible for you unless you're level cap gear for that expansion
How do you see green rarity fish?
its name is green
Ah I'm so dumb
and the icon
@minor fulcrum Thanks a bunch dudes @cursive ridge
Ok, well I was thinking of finishing Limsa lomsa lower distrctir before moving on, but I guess I will have to leave that one unfinished.
I'm so far back on the Hildebrand quests...is it really necessary for a BLU to know this to do the Second Coil of Bahamut speed run for tomes?
It's time gated with 2 hours between each
You waste other peoples time not having lv5 death and missile
also note that fishing log doesnt actually require you to catch one type of fish from each place
Essentially worse than a normal job
catching a fish in one place will autofill it in all the other spawn places
fiiiiine...I'll try to get this done ASAP
can someone please teach me what to do on MSQ "Good Intentions"
Not you, ninja
I know I just wanted to finish that particular distrcit before moving on.
What does it have you do
!quest Good Intentions
Minfilia is considering which of her many responsibilities demands her utmost attention.
Minfilia
The Rising Stones (X: 6.14 Y: 5.21)
Ilberd
Eastern Thanalan (X: 21.15 Y: 21.13)
Let Us Cling Together
Bait and Switch
Hard mode unlocks are in waking sands from urianger iirc
@frozen oar https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Primal_Quests here's a list of level 50 primal quests, you need to do the top 4 for MSQ
click on them, they have their questgivers listed and prerequisites if appropriate
ty ty
but i have done all the 3 quests just not in hard mode
so idk.. whats going on O_O
and idk how to unlock hard modes
if you've not done them in 'hard' mode, you have not done those quests
The quest chain is tracked under the main scenario tracker as well
Also npcs are always in their place for quest
Time bubbles
Yes there's multiple scion and Minifilla is still in the waking sands
If a character is needed for a quest, they will be there
only the jacket
how do i make it so that i dont go into "idle animation pose" when my weapon is drawn?
if it's possible that is
make it not auto seathe
cycle your /cpose until your character has no pose
Hey everyone. Whats a good tank guide for someone who is brand new to the game (Warrior)? I actually don't main tanks so I can't help a friend out in this aspect..
if you stop on that, your character wont change poses while idle
thanks caspian
Any of the tanks works well for starters
They seem to enjoy warrior but don't know how to help them in terms of actually tanking beyond the basics
oh wow didnt know weapon being out had idle animations
Let them do the hall of the novice tank thingies and then let em run around, tank is rather self explanatory
@solemn jewel Got it. Thank yoi

Henlo team!
We heard you needed some pointers on how to play WAR while leveling. The splits below are done based on what skills you unlock, and what you should take into account.
Do your job quests every five levels.
Upgrade your gear every 2-5 levels.
Remember your role actions.
Gear We want Strength and Vitality. And Weapon Damage. Lo...
talk to the glasses lionboy changed to that job
I don’t need to do anything to my belts now right?
Need 1k poetics in 4 of the aethersand or smth items though to start a 2nd relic
you'll be able to retrieve them from calamity salvager
Can also just delete them before maintenance
Does Calamity Savage keeps it forever?
As far as we know yes
Dope
they'll probably delete it in like a year
I kinda want to keep some on him forever now
I wonder if there are still any 1.0 items on anyone’s salvager
just like they keep the removed housing items for you for a few months
You can probably just leave them in a retainer
u can take em and put em on a retainer.
prolly for the best
Have to admit, I don’t really have anything left to do in game now
only the armoury chest belts will be deposited to calamity salvager, my understanding it will not be a 'rebuy' feature, but 'retrieve once'
and equipped ones of course
Yeah it’s retrieve
The only thing you need to do to belts before 6.0 is extract materia from belts at 100% spiritbond
Since that option will be removed with 6.0
do people (who have unlocked materia extracting) not extract them right away?
i usually retrieve mine at the end of a dungeon
It can be easy to forget when leveling up
Also having all of your slots finish means you dont have uneven progress
Which bothers some people like myself cause ocd about certain things
you're also wasting some progress by not extracting
|| https://youtu.be/hnmsvGc613Q?t=468 || does anyone know the english name of this ost? i shazamed it but shazam always gives me the japanese title, which i translate then find but it wont work this time. name is 古のジョブ which translates to old job. searching this or the japanese name doesnt yield results
I'll be honest, Gaius' kids' "plan" was probably one of the worst thought-out plans in all of Eorzea, but we finally reach this Weapons questline end, with the Warrior of Light coming up against the Diamond Weapon.
#FFXIV #DiamondWeapon #DeathUntoDawn
oh god i figured it out!!!!
its because i didnt do one of the chain quest, i thought i can start with the 2nd one and misunderstood they had to be done in order
ty all
for helping me
isnt it asia server or something
Relics
Hi I’m farming the Aesthetic Light and the weapon light not showing up
How am I suppose to know how much I e got ?
Story spoilers in the video so if you haven't at least completed The Vault I forbid you from watching.
Relics from Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn and Heavensward
The video shows the death of a much loved character. Don't cry. Anyways, it's been requested a few times, genuinely forgot about it though because the track was originally on Before ...
wow...thank you. its all the way from hw wth
believe it or not i saw that vid, clicked on it, and decided that wasnt it
lmfao
Which ones?
Heavensward raid (hard)
forgot which one but the blue mage needed spells from there
So I joined them
It’s the Striking Tree
i've not done that questline yet, but the striking tree is ARR, not HW
and it's a trial, not a raid
It can be from there too right
¯_(ツ)_/¯
No
Here is a list of raids and dungeons that will give light
Its recommended you get an 8 party going and do alexander 9 (savage)
only had to run that shit like 20-21 times
A9S unsync farm can finish the step in well under an hour easily
when does the class changes kick in
Early Access release
that's when the expansion drops
for all intents and purposes it's the full release
so i take it reaper and sage are on normal release
no
Early Access = the expansion is live.
even msq?
yes
nothing is held back until full release.
Early Access is the launch for all practical purposes from a player perspective
They cant split the playerbase for EA
oh no I still have to finish shadowbringers raid, trials and alliance raid
and stormblood trials + alliance raid
in 8(?) days
Dont rush
!expansion
The games not running away
4 days till it drops
but you don't need to be on the bleeding edge
one of those days will be taken up by the 24 hour maintenance
So really there are three days of play left until Endwalker
so this is me but why ea friday and not release day on friday
cus EA is the release in all but name
so is it just marketing
Most people intending to play on release pre-ordered it anyway
just an extra push to get people to preorder
Ehh...like
you can still preorder between the 3rd and the 7th
so it's
really just "if you have bought the game you can play"
which is y'know. How it always works
Preordering isn't even a particularly special case
how is "if you buy the game earlier you can play earlier" not a push to get people to preorder
it's nothing insidious but that's literally the purpose of early access
If you buy the game earlier you can always play earlier
Whether it's a preorder or not
early access is more of a last minute quintuple check to make sure everything's running smoothly without the stress of the game being launched "officially" than anything else
You could say it's partly called Early Access so that it doesn't sound so bad if there are server troubles
understandable

question: is there a silly costume I can buy on my server's MB right now, or is the chance of that high
theres the fat hatchling mask at the achievement guy
which launcher does she open
did you buy it for her on steam?
is she trying to open the trial launcher or the actual game launcher
How long will it take to get the Ozma mount?
Ye try the normal one
Finish Eureka and get thru Baldesion Arsenal iic
I cannot answer that cus i didnt do either
anima is normal mode
eureka relic is savage mode
ozma is ultimate (the grind, not the difficulty)
you’re looking at around 40 50 hours of nothing but in eureka for the relic, provided you cough up some gil and .. have some luck
for ozma, another 10 15 hours with lots of gil and/ or luck
<good luck>
ozma took me like 2 hours but i had some homies help out in the CAFE discord
the run itself is 2 hours right? otherwise, i’m moving to crystal
About 2 hours of time yeah
variable based on how long it takes to get into the instance together, and how long of a break people take in between each fight
like in first time parties they often take 5 to go over mechs before each fight
while those who already know just go into /hudlayout to avoid the afk kick
^ ya, good idea to join a eureka discord for your dc to get into organised runs
otherwise, you may not even get rez
Set aside 3 hours of time to be safe
also, if you die as last boss dies, it’s another 2 3 hours of that place .. again
Side note: basically the same for drs
I wish I was tireless
I need to IV coffee into my veins this morning 😩
What's Ozma?
!mount ozma
rip
Stop trying to mount ozma
btw the 24-man dungeons don't give much exp right?
!mount demi-ozma
After concluding that Ozma of the Weeping City was but a preliminary attempt to weave an aether-based simulacrum of the Eurekan phenomenon Proto Ozma, the Students of Baldesion endeavored to apply similar magicks in the creation of what they dubbed “Demi-Ozma,” hoping to learn what makes the entity tick.
We're On Your Side I (Achievement)
It's just the 24man roulette gives a lot
Not really but the roulette is worth it
Yeah
Highest level dungeon after roulette is generally the go to
I still wish the 506070 roulette gives more exp
Just for a reason to do it
The old max level dungeons are all pretty fun
It's not awful for the time it takes to clear one
Yeah
the reason to do those is tomestones
I guess I should measure exp efficiency next expansion
Yeah... it's just that it only gives Poetics and the lesser tome...
The most efficient thing to my horror is MSQ Roulette
Is there any way to know if a levee offers a triple turn in?
Though some variant on that, if you have road to 70 oddly unless you are closing in on the 60's it is not as fast as dungeon spam.
Seems to me like biscuits might not always win if I’m buying stuff on market? Lol
these 2 plates mean triple
Also I want to record and upload gameplay
Crystal Sand is easy, a breeze given I have DOHs and DOLs.
i preorderd endwalker on steam and i went to put the code in the mogstation, but it says the code invalid. i tried both codes
good luck 
Can OBS record screen and save locally?
Sure! That should work.
I should have just joined this discord first. I have a question that might not have an answer.
Do you own the basegame on steam?
Did you enter the Early access code in the specific early access code box
yes and yes
I asked the same ages ago.
The early access code should work
thank you!
the game code not
im using the code you get when you right click ffiv online and press manage
should i be using a different one?
It will come when the game releases nho?
so I've been playing a couple weeks and the whole novice network thing hasn't really been a thing just a place people talk about endgame content. Well I actually had a serious question today and was harassed it was way more toxic then it usually was.
As a new player I'm FORCED into it every time I log in! do I have to just quit it with that icon every time I log in? is there an "opt out" option?
oh nvm...i put it in the wrong place
Also check your thingy in Mog Station
Does EW EA also unlock preorder items?
Hahaha
i just started so ill try
You can't
Nahhhh
Don't try
Rushing levels is a really horrible idea
No worries at all!
i have 662 hours in game, I maxed level 4 DOM/DOWs, I maxed one crafter, two DOLS and got the crafter mentor
Take your time.
Enjoy it! ❤️
This won't go away.
/novicenetworkleave
should work
So I downloaded ACT so I can work on self improvement. What overlay do you recommend?
And I rarely AFK...
another suggestion is /nnetwork off
i never joined so i dont know which one works/is better
Ok I can try that next time I'm logged in. It auto joins me on login so maybe one of those can keep me out of it permanantly
thanks
I will visit you and show off my memisis lux, I swear.
third suggestion
Settings icon next to chat input -> General button -> Uncheck Novice Network. It's not leaving, but you won't be exposed to it if you don't care to see it.
I'm almost done, I'm crying.
that can work. the harassment I got today really soured me on the whole game so I'll do that next time I'm on. If i can make it so I never see it I wont worry about leaving it if I'm auto joined. Thanks alot!
there are bad people in any big enough group of people, that's just how it is
best book is worth it o/
I'll just ask questions in this discord from now on
Why was there a sticker
probably the better idea
NN also depends from server to server
LMAO
I think the Faerie one is pretty good
soon^TM

Hey after I complet a realm reborn what's the next expansion
Heavensward
I think I'm almost done with a realm reborn 😹😹😹 it has so many quests
Like so many lol
well it do be the base game
I thought HW was almost as bad as ARR for the most part. Stormblood was the gamechanger, and I just unlocked ShB tonight. The hype is real.
That is not a popular take lol
Spiciest take ive seen
But tbh i was replaying stormblood in ng+ and it felt so nostalgic compared to heavensward
i ruined stormblood for myself by doing every sidequest as they unlocked
i would not recommend doing sidequests like i did to anybody
Either I’m an anomoly or most people praising HW while shitting on SB are completely tainted by their initial playthrough.
Coming in fresh, it just felt like a significantly better game. Also Namazu
in what capacity
Initial playthrough meaning they played HW when it was the meta, that is. Bad phrasing.
Some people dislike Stormbloods story themes
I doubt you'll find many who disliked stormbloods content, its got some of the best duties
you are an anomaly, most people vastly preferred HW to Stormblood
I’m interested in new players like myself though. I don’t think I’d be an anomaly in that more players would enjoy both the story and content of Stormblood over HW
the 'most' also applies to new players
I started in summer, i am a newer player
also this has stopped being a question and turned into a discussion
Tru
Also I’m not trying to shit up a super helpful channel, lol.
Sorry yall.
Aaaaanyway... have any announcements been made on Chocobo companion getting more skills/levels?
Wondering if I should save some Thav onions or get rid of em
no word
Drat, my Chocobo is stuck at level 9.
i dont think they've done anything with chocos since 3.x
So nothing on gardening OR Choco? 🤔
thav onions sell well tho
not really much point doing anything with chocobos they're fine as is
just sell the onions if your chocobo is level 20 already
They just need an onion from 11-20 is all, and I just got a house and a garden in the last few weeks.
So I’d be hella bummed if my gardening investments become worthless
there are other things that require gardening crosspolination too, do those
I do
But most gardening is centered around Thav Onions
In nearly every case
Seeds sell for 50k when the harvest is worth 1gil. Because those seeds make Thav Onions.
So a change to that would destroy the current garden economy. Not saying that’s a bad thing, I just wanted to prepare if any info had come out.
My retainer is currently a 74 pally, can I change it to a rdm without losing all my exp or not
you'd need to reset their levels since you already made them into a job
damn

Is there any way to make it so a sound plays when a skill is ready?
i think i've seen a third party plugin for that, but not in the base game no
Damn :/
is the exp changes coming in early access also?
all system changes are coming in early access
Desynth Belts or sell them yeah?
it would be foolish to balance the game for a 3 day period
you can decide later
GC seals!!

I have an exarchic belt; so I shouldn't exchange it for AUGMENTED nho? It'll be useless this Friday anyhow?
dont bother
Aight; anything but the belt.
How much total Potency does Doton do, if an enemy is inside it for the full duration?
Maiming gear is for repear?
Oo, thanks for the heads up
One change I wish from Endwalker for Black Mages was automatic casting of Umbral Soul out of combat while in Umbral Ice.
I hate spamming it while moving from trash to trash or through portals etc.
Like if you're out of combat and in Umbral Ice, it should just top up with Umbral Soul instead of me spamming the button constantly in the case of cut scenes or portals.
Scythe will be PIERCING yeah?
physical damage type do not matter anymore
and if it did, it wouldn't be piercing, it would be slashing, because it's a scythe, you don't pierce with it, you slash
So... since it’s 800 I’m guessing Raiton is always superior since it can also Direct/Crit, assuming it’s just a singular boss or something?
yes you do not use aoe on single target
Do I always wanna open up with Suiton to get that Trick Attack too for bosses?
yes
Katon can also direct/crit, that's not why raiton is better
YAY!
just remember to Huton and Hide before pull to get the buff and mudras back
Doton can direct/crit also
I mean, it’s naturally lower Potency so that’s just off the table already haha
Doton costs an extra second of mudra time to execute compared to raiton, and is dependant on the enemy being inside it for the full duration
Doton should not be used on single target outside of prepull and downtime shenanigans
And last question, does Huton affect charge time of mudra or no? I’m assuming not since it’s not recast time?
Reduces weaponskill recast time and auto-attack delay by 15%.
Duration: 70s
Mudra Combination: Jin→Chi→Ten or Chi→Jin→Ten
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills, mudra, and Ninjutsu upon execution.
※This action cannot be assigned to a hotbar.
also note that Doton is not affected by Kassatsu thingie, i've been told
That’s why I bought up the 2nd part of the question yeah
Alrighty thanks y’all
Time to miscast these
it's bunny time
bnuuy
NOoo cat boi forever.
The other bnuuy
(ninjas get a bunny on their head when they use their mudras wrong)
Told my guy, I'll file a divorce if he goes bunny
(In cute little classic BLM clothes too)
i really like au ra but bunny boy looking real tempting
Doton VS Raiton comes down to extreme min-maxing and specific scenarios for it to be better than Raiton
so when im levelling a new job from 1-50 in potd what do i spam?
floor 51-60 if you have it unlocked.
im just starting so im on 11-20 now
if you log out in a super populated area like limsa and there's tons of people in it, it might not let you zone in
when asmon was doing his first stream, he couldn't get down to limsa lower decks from the starting inn because it kept saying the zone is full
release will have split instances though
better be safe
yeah but if you're in an inn room, you'll get the same problem walking out
you can teleport out
teleport to an area that'll be overloaded too
but at least you will be logged into the game
logging into a full area might put you at the start of the queue if it's full
just log out in like, il mheg or amaurot
theres so many areas theres gonna be at least one crystal not full
who's sitting in amaurot?
the queue is saved if you get kicked out, for like a few minutes, but yeah probably better to log out somewhere else
me because its beautiful
ur an outlier and u should not be counted
like literally just dont be in one of the main cities
People think Amaurot look bad?
yeah u should be fine

pretty sure uldah and whatever sage start in will have split instances too
no but theres nothing to do down there
they better not
so theres no reason to be at the aetheryte
One reason is because no one will be there when EW drops, meaning you can actually log in
Checkmate
anyway I'll be logging out in the crystarium, maybe I'll just go to the inn first
pray log off at the waking sands
good luck
Thats what i said-
Yes
crystarium is pretty empty most of the time
camp drybone >
As the first quest likely starts at the rising stones, do not log out there
My preferred empty zone is Coerthas Western Highlands.
log out in the wolves' den, nobody does pvp xD
actually big brain
then again new pvp mode might actually be good who knows
new pvp isn't till 6.1 iirc
i might just vibe at the namazu aetheryte
anyway you'd need MASSIVE amounts of people in the area you're logging in to block you, and people gonna be split all over the place with ppl logging in RPG/SGE areas and Mor Dhona for MSQ plus limsa afkers and stuff, so don't think it'll be much of an issue but might as well
rpr/sge start quests are in the starting cities
rip
like sb/shb
think it would be cool to have new classes start in new places but eh, like heavensward
nah that would suck
they stepped away from that model for a reason
to let people switch to those jobs easier
Question about the new lottery housing system in 6.0, what about house transfers? Do you bypass the lottery or do you have to relinquish your current house to submit a lottery for another house?
it's not 6.0, it's 6.1
pretty sure transfers are out, but there's not that many details yet on all the systems, because it's not soon
you gotta submit a lottery to relocate
they'll do a live letter for 6.1 eventually and they'll answer all/most questions then
Ah okay, thanks 🙂
after killing the boss yes
you will start at next 10 set
if you kill boss on 20, you can exit and continue later from 21
only on that save mind you, a new save would need to start at 1, or 51 if you have unlocked it

EU player here, need to renew my sub tomorrow, I don't have a credit card, what now?
can buy crysta with paypal if you have that, or buy gametime cards on various websites
so if I want to do entry, I have to buy 1099 crysta?
yes
Thank you!
do all mounts fly same speed ?
yes
some def seem slower
all mounts are the same speed, only outlier is the Cloud bike from cash shop which always goes at least at 1star ground speed even if you haven't unlocked it yet
the cloud surf board ride ?
you can just run tests, bigger mounts will seem slower because of perception/stupid brain shit, like how you'll feel you go faster if you play a lalafel versus a roe
na the bike
ya its the bigger ones seem slower heh
cloud as in the FF7 character
ok
levelling pld: do you still use your spells under requiescat even if they've got cast times?
I assume you do
and you just weirdly tank damage while casting
am i doing this wrong? i feel like it shouldnt be a 40min queue?
besides that, it's just the fact that 11-50 aren't run as much
most people do 1-10 or 51-60, maybe floors 61-100
if i start a new job in potd do i have to start from 1-10 again?
wtf
i restarted finder after checking language (i didnt change anything) and it popped straighta way.
Luck
yeah the files are class/job-specific
but once you unlock floor 51 as a starting point, that unlocks it for all jobs
how do i save my char in the kupo bot?
Ask Kupo #kupo-bot-spam ! Me
anyone else super lag this morning ?
If I preorder endwalker like, right now can I still get early access
ye
Sweet
Depends where u bought the game
im asking him....
that's just a typo obviously, since literally right after they says a free edge/flood, not 2700mp gained+free edge flood
how much space is endwalker going to take up on top of a current ffxiv install?
Can I join another FC without deleting my own FC?
Honestly I don’t even know how to preorder I’m gonna figure that out later today but from steam
You can only be in one FC
they haven't said what size it is, probably 10-15gb download, not sure if it'll translate to 10-15gb on disk though @shut panther
So it must be deleted?
Yea
yeah no make room for sure
Sheeh
even if we don't know, there's no way 7 will be enough, especially since often patches need more space than they take to install
you can have someone else join your FC @frosty badger then join with an alt to "hold it", but you can't actually be in multiple FCs on one char
Hi, is it possible to play with a xbox one controller?
Oh so it's not really practical option
can play with any controller supported by a PC yeah
But not from the same user account, yes?
ok thanks - i would try to play FF14 - should i just buy a sub?
could be same user account but need standard sub to have more than one char on the same server(at least for a month to make that char GM, then can be entry you just won't have access to it until you resub as standard)
Service account I mean
Try the free trial
it gives u basegame and first expansion
i did already 4-5 years ago, cant do it again on steam
oh that sucks yea
Aha
buying the game gives u 30 free days
Sounds like a headache
so u can maybe use those before paying for a sub
if you've never bought the game you can still play trial, if you've bought then yeah need to sub
the standard edition is rather cheap
Is there a way to teleport to the "Soft-Faced Bloke" or Stone Sky Sea? It's a bit cumbersome to go there all the time
nope
there are dummies in various places though unless you're specifically trying to do times on these
can you use manticore on boss?
what's manticore
oh the pom, no
I mean yes you can use but bosses are immune to knockbacks
so it doesn't instant kill
just does shit dmg
can use the succubus thing to stack vulns for more dmg though, and the holy ghost thing does good dmg on undead bosses(not that there's many of them)
yeah but stuck with subs then.
Best would be to use free trial for most 1-60 stuff and then buy the game after you finish it.
What else should they do if they cant do the trial anymore?
why did they end their trial lol
The old trial was only up to lvl 35 and timegated
bought shadowbringers?
The current trial was created in 2020
i did already 4-5 years ago, cant do it again on steam
use the ingame luncher lol?
They said they cant do it again, i gave them an alternative 
I have a free trial account and one with a sub
but use ff14 luncher not steam.
They could also make a new steam account?
If not, just buy complete edition lol
or u know, just buy the cheap starter edition, use the free 30 days to see if they wanna stick with it before buying the full thing.
maybe send a ticket and ask them to open free trial and explain lol?
lmao they wont
!faq communityfinder
community finder, just checking lodestone for pop, reddit recruitment, this discord's recruitment channels, stuff like that
ultimately takes some effort if you want specific FCs, and if you just want buffs just join whatever big FC there is on your server that invite everyone
ok thanks
which one have better CE exp? Bozjan or Zandor? or are both the same?
same
ah
zadnor is just better for mettle
Can you get early access on endwalker on PS4?
hey this may be a spoiler or not, but outside of the raid, alliance raid and the notebook thing anything else to be noted for heavens ward
for resurrection immunity, can you use sprint or that also voids it? also it's on cast start, yeah?
The trial series, beast tribes if you care
Oh right hard mode trials
Oh yeah, Tales of the Dragonsong War questline
Once you start getting into the worlds stuff
if I skip mining a map, can another map show up later?
yes
Dope I can start doing my ultimate weapons and complete what I didn’t do in arr
Can it be of a different variant of map?
yes
Thanks
How much MP do these skills/stance recover:
- PLD riot blade and atonement
- DRK syphon strike and stalwart soul
- BLM Umbral Ice 1, 2, and 3
1000/600/ idk
Natural MP regen is 200 per tick, right?
can free trial players play dungeons, raids and other stuffs?
yes
Yes
oh ok ty ty
riot blade is 1000. atonement is 400. syphon strike is 600. not sure about stalwart soul tho I'd reckon it's between 400 and 600
in combat, yes. 600 out of combat
in combat regen affected by piety for healers
riot blade recovers 1k, atonement recovers 400
the drk skills both recover 600 each
yes it modifies the tick
the free trial contains almost all content from the first two expansion packs, including dungeon,s raids, gear, etc
but yes, the base rate is 200 per tick
around 200-300 hours of content
but only to 60 right?
akhmorning has a whole ass table for how specific amounts of piety affect mp regen per tick
just FYI
@warped nest note there's also delirium for DRK and Carve and Spit. i dont remember but i think delirium is 200 per and carve is 600
!action delirium
Oh, I genuinely forgot about delirium
and c&s is flat 600
So are zodiac weapons arr relics? Just started hw anima stuff and it mentioned I
Yes
the idea was that if you did the whole ARR relic you could skip the first step
which is NOT worth your time
Just do your Anima, don't grind Zodiac to skip one single step in anima
It was meant as a freebie for players who invested time in ARR grinding out a zodiac
I plan to do the zodiac stuff at some point. They make good glam
good luck
Can I obtain a Map from any node I am capable of seeing or is there a restriction?
needs to be level cap node for expansions
Is the "every job to lvl 90" mount time limited?
No
lvl 80 you mean and no
Why would it be
we dont know if there will be a lvl 90 mount yet
all the other lvl caps just got dumb hats
What does this mean? :((
50/60/70/80
Heard it was a bitch and a half
Yeah but like, when is it 50, 60, 70, 80, etc
If you want a map you don't go and find it on a lvl 15 gathering node
there's also level 40 and level 45 maps but those are absolute garbage lol
its the level of the node
says so on the node name
63 AV runs and that wasn't the worse step
63 INDIVIDUAL runs
Like, is it based on my MSQ progression, or am I at HW MSQ be able to mine a 70 Map if I can see it
Av?
aurum vale
Lvl 47 dungeon
why
you cant get to lvl 70 zones while in hw msq
lv 70 nodes are in stormblood zones
light farms are fun 🙂
Very tricky for new players
Thanks
Oh god that gonna suck
you need to mine lvl 60 nodes for heavensward maps
doing AV for light farm...
faster than tam tara
politely disagree but not going to argue
just search the name of the map that you want on google, gamer escape lists nodes that you can find them at.
plus can always double up on some other relics like doing ST instead
and doing shb relic step at the same time
god please no
im so tired of that place
Is the new housing plots opening on the 7th?
but yes i see the value
no
circus tower home of the clowns 🤡
the wards will be available for viewing, but purchase won't be available until 6.1
so im now at floor 61 of potd but should i reset and start at 50 again for fast levels
yes
Damn really 6.1?
this option?
eeyup
and i wont have to start at 1?
nope
okay i trust you
if you've beaten ||edda on floor 50|| you won't have to reset from 1. you can start from 51 at that point
housing wards are pretty much never going to be available for purchase with an expac release. if a ward is coming with an expac. they want people to be able to freely focus on the new expac
phew it worked 😄
not racing to get a house
and this is like 1 level per run?
eh
Lol no
wasnt for me
at lower levels yes but around level 35 or so it starts to become 2 runs and eventually at level 50 or so it's 3 runs per level
im level 20
how good is dragoon?
Then it should be at least one level per run no ploblem
good
they're all good
XIV is unusual in that you get to pick jobs based on what you want
Not what's good
Because as said, they are all good
yeah i want dragoon jsut curious if its like op or sumthin xd
Its all well balanced
ooooo
it's quite op at dying
does ff have pvp?
not on free trial
wym xd
yes, but the classes are so different in pvp that it hardly matters what you play normally
Does my exp boosts work in potd exp?
Please no jokey answers in here
only armoury bonus and road to 70 work in POTD
you'll understand when u hit level 35
experience boosting items and foods don't give extra experience.
dragoon, has animation lock on its jumps, meaning if you mistime it you won't be able to avoid the aoe
I don't think the FC actions work in POTD either, but I can't test if so
how should i level then if i have this boost to 80 earing?
Do dungeons
Dungeons
i see i see
also DRG had no magic resist in 2.0 so it died to every raidwide lol
it has now?
but yeah its great now
its not "meta" bc every other melee brings something just as good as drg, so you're free to play what you want
which one has the highest dps in melee ?
player skill > class
Samurai
Asssuming you're good and have perfect uptime
Samurai due to not providing any party damage utility
DRG doesnt deal as much but brings 2 buffs to the partty
And you're no better than a phys ranged
you can apply that to every job, not just SAM
Yeah, but samurai ahs the whole strict loop
!faq metameme
until ew that is
Joking aside
I think SAM will still have the loop of sorts, or at least the concept of filler GCDs
When we talked about job ranking and what not
The underlying assumption is they are played at the highest level of competency and knowledge
none of the jobs are op
We don't talk about blue mage because it's limited
Every jobs has something good about it
BLM and SAM have the highest rDPS and no party buffs
Blue mage is quite OP in content under level 71
We don't talk about blue mage because it's limited
as you can see, theres a lot to discuss about every class in FFXIV. theres a ton of optimization to learn and enjoy @opaque void
are there any relationship checks when breeding race chocobos?
e.g. can I breed my bo' w/ their offspring for better chances at a full 5er?
thx alot
Ever breed Pokémon?
so no checks? great
No, I invested way too much time into that shit, i can't not talk about it 😭
92 spells
The gist of it is
Play whichever job is cool
And whichever job you think suits your playstyle
And the game let you swap whenever you feel like it
That's a much bigger factor than "this one has highest rdps" or "this one is used most"
i kinda like someone who can be tanky and deal damage at the same time
You can play all jobs on one single character
play whatever job you want as long as you aren't running 4 dancers or 4 bards
Because yeah
SAM and BLM have highest rdps
But if you don't vibe with the playstyle and can't perform at the top level, you're never gonna reach that highest point
you can run 4 dancers
40s of devilment is funny
well in statics sure but good luck clearing savages in pugs with that shit
idk, that sounds like a different kind of party
ehe

indeed
We need a job that uses a drum as a weapon, make it a tank 
why can't bard just buff themselves 😩
All classes deal damage, including tank and healer
i mean lime huge dmg
hammer tank is gonna be a tank at some point does that count?
like*
there isnt a big HP big DPS class, but all tanks do deal good damage. gunbreaker is the most "i want to tank but also have a melee rotation"
not gonna happen
Closest you can get is GNB in lvl 70 content
all dps are pretty squishy, things hit hard in FFXIV unless its solo content
the big damage buttons are on white mage, samurai, and dancer, and blue mage
lynn do you have the 10mil afflitus pic
Hey so are they banning bots in XIV with EW? I saw something about housing getting turned into anti-bot system or something what's going on with that? Also are they doing anything about RMT bots too? I keep seeing a few in Gridania all the time so maybe it's not a big thing?
I also have 300k blasting zone
hey, I'm playing on the free trial and I'm wondering where can I get some clothing to use for glamours since I can't use the market
Black Mage is consistent good damage
It doesn't have nukes like an afflatus, midare or tech step
they tend to be more consistant good rather than BIG 1-SHOT
what job(s) do I need?
I guess xeno is kinda big but enkindle bahamut/phoenix are meh
usually weaver and leatherworker
yes, but BLM doesn't have "big damage button"
got it, thanks
but you will only able to do level 50 and 60 stuff
a lot of nice glamour is from 70 and 80 recipes too
Midare is 1.2k with kaiten, tech step is 1.5k
also those usually require exotic materials
like stuff from treasure map dungeons and free company dirigible/submarine missions
dancer step is like 1500
750
Despair is 684
f4 is 540
It's just consistent really good damage
No "Fuck you" buttons






what the best way to find a fc
