Is there any code I need to register to get access to Endwalker on Tuesday after early access? I have Endwalker early access on my account and the code from SE says its already been used
heavy wadi
if you preordered then dec 3rd is your launch
should get your code on the 2nd or maybe a bit before
wild sluice
Yea I already got the code just wanted to make sure there wasn't another code I needed for the full release after the Early Access weekend
heavy wadi
full release means nothing to you if you preordered so dw
wild sluice
Awesome thanks
forest sage
there is a full code, which can't be entered yet, and as such hasn't been sent yet for the most part(I think steam has it already)
you have until dec 10th to enter it though
well to not lose access that is, can enter it whenever

Are people being finally charged on their EW purchase? Or does it still just says you've preordered it but doesn't charge you right away?

they'll probably start charging automatically during the early access? but you can bill it early, or at least you used to be able to a while ago

The rotation for BLM is quite simple and they have some of the fewest buttons, however they need to know the fight beforehand to fully excel, since any movement could potentially crater their damage. Though I believe this will be helped a little in endwalker?
tiny siren
thank you ❤️
steel horizon
It's not super uncommon for BLM's to take a hit just so they can pump out their damage.
green grail
that's not really a good mindset to have for learning a job
steel horizon
Compared to new summoner, where their kit is full of instant spells, so movement isn't a big issue

you have movement tools and instacasts, learn to use them instead of sitting in aoes

BLM is really slow untill l60
forest sage
EW makes it a bit less punishing if you fuck up your rotation, but it's not really much

BLM is really slow untill l60
BLM is slow until you start building spell speed*
BLM will pretty much always be slow unless you go SPS BIS
forest sage
basically you don't lose Enochian, so you don't have to waste time recasting it, and IF you fucked up twice in a row, you don't get double fucked(cause no Enochian)

open coral
Should I buy started edition + end walker pre order or complete edition at dec 7
Up to you. Depends on whether you want to be able to play Endwalker during early access.
Although if you don't already own the game, then you wouldn't be able to get to the end of ShB in the next two days, so you may as well wait unless you want the preorder rewards.
vocal cobalt
Which is better
open coral
Neither?
vocal cobalt
I don’t understand
open coral
They're basically the same thing.
vocal cobalt
I am on free trial now
open coral
The only difference would be that if you preordered Endwalker now, you would get a code that would give you a couple of in-game rewards.
green grail
preorder for the preorder bonuses
open coral
And if you wait for the Complete edition after the release, then you won't get those in-game rewards.
vocal cobalt
Endwalker pre order includes shadowbringers and stormblood right

faint flare
Aka healing on the spot
open coral
As what class?
river oasis
Scholar
river oasis
Didnt know what it meant
open coral
So spot healing will be at your discretion, not anyone else's.
open coral
If you feel like people are stable enough, then they don't need spot healing, by definition.
jade quartz
if no one died then you did enough
river oasis
In dungeon i usually just leave the tank with rec+ excog and press dps buttin
open coral
As WHM I'll reflexively spot heal with a Cure if I don't feel like a big heal is necessary before my next AoE heal, but that's about it.
It's a terrible habit, really.
river oasis
Ah ok
open coral
Pushed high enough, yes, it increases the number of ticks on a HOT
But to get enough SpS to make that really effective, you'd be sacrificing a better stat, like Crit.
Mostly healers have the same stat build priority as dps - Crit > Det/DH
Whether you choose Det or DH depends on whether you want to prioritize a more balanced healing/dps build (Det) or a dps build (DH).
BiS healing sets for progression will lean towards the DH-focused dps build, for obvious reasons.
mild mountain
Pushed high enough, yes, it increases the number of ticks on a HOT
But can det increase hots?
faint flare
Yes
open coral
It can increase the healing done by them, yes.
faint flare
It's general healing and damage up
mild mountain
So det is the better route
open coral
It increases both damage and healing universally.
Better than SpS, yes.
Better than DH, it depends on what your end goal is.
mild mountain
Well im sticking as healer
open coral
If you're doing primarly pug/queue content, then Det is the way to go.
If you're looking to do endgame Savage progression, then you want more DH.
mild mountain
Oh?
worn flume
DH won't do anything to increase healing done
open coral
DH is an increase to damage output, and in Savage progression, that's more important than the universal, but less potent, increase to damage and healing of Det.
faint flare
Don't really need to buff healing when it's already dummy strong
open coral
^
faint flare
Just snap your fingers and boom everyone is full hp
open coral
Det is the way to go for pugging only becaus you can never trust random players to have decent gear... or raid awareness.
faint flare
Healers are too good at healing hp
worn flume
at endgame on healers DH and Det are about equal in value, what you want more of is Crit
mild mountain
Idk, many healers told me they cant keep up with endgame tank's hp
open coral
That's hilarious.
And yeah, as Vinyl said, that's because either the healer is bad, the tank is bad, or both.
mild mountain
Anyways i appreciate all the extra tips but theyre kinda basic. But
Explaining details such as how many % increase would help a lot
open coral
Push Crit as high as you can.
faint flare
!faq stats
zinc orbitBOT
open coral
Then do DH or Det as your gear slots will accept.
But also yeah, the tier lists exist.
mild mountain
That's already basic knowledge too 
worn flume
then check the stat tiering that kupo linked
jade quartz
Pushed high enough, yes, it increases the number of ticks on a HOT
no it does not
open coral
It doesn't?
jade quartz
SkS/SpS do not increase the number of ticks of HoTs/DoTs
they simply increase the damage/healing per tick
open coral
I thought SpS affected HoT/DoT ticks.
open coral
Ah. My bad then.
jade quartz
Which is why speed buffs tick strength instead
otherwise it would be a dead stat when applied to dot and hot damage/healing

Hi there! i have a question regarding my game cuz i just started
right now when i play ffxiv, there is a significant difference from playing on fullscreen vs windowed + the size of the window
when fullscreened the frames drop all the way down to 10 frames per second
and when windowed, depending on the size it can reach up to 40
(my pc is old and not that great, the biggest issue of which the laptop has integrated graphics and i have 8 gigabytes of ram, 6 of which are usable and not automatically locked to the graphics card)
fleet steppe
turn all the settings down and pray lmao
jovial ocean
it does
jovial ocean
its radeon vega 8 graphics, Ryzen 5 processor
silver ruin
if anything dont full screen it
jovial ocean
i turned it all down to normal laptop settings
and even further by turning off physics, grass, shadows
fleet steppe
I don't think igpu is minimum requirements
silver ruin
what was the score
jovial ocean
apparently it even meets the recommended requirements without the ram issue
and it WAS 65% before i managed to tweak the benchmarker to adjust for actual ram
now its 15%

at least i think so
the benchmarker said it was fine at least
it didnt even really bring it up

yes
jovial ocean
no no i didnt use the stormblood benchmarker yet
stray osprey
thanks
silver ruin
you dont get any skills locked behind expansions you dont have yet
silver ruin
no no i didnt use the stormblood benchmarker yet
use the endwalker one
not stormblood
jovial ocean
just an online specs comparison website like pcbenchmarker
silver ruin
yea dont use that
fleet steppe
vega 8 is worse than the r7 260x by about 40% lol
silver ruin
use the official one
^ would be why your fps is in the shitter then
you dont meet the minimum requirements in that case
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/benchmark/ can test the benchmark here
but if thats really the problem then theres not much you can do about it
jovial ocean
vega 8 is worse than the r7 260x by about 40% lol
man, im literally getting hard duped by whoever told me i was good
aight, this is gonna suck
fleet steppe
Integrated graphics are garbage
jovial ocean
i know they are
university student though, i cant do much about it
i move around constantly so i just had this thing for 5 years and pray its good enough
silver ruin
page says itll report something like this
fleet steppe
there are plenty of cheap used gpus tho
silver ruin
if the preformance says "very low" or "low" you're kinda screwed
especially for something like launch week
fleet steppe
gtx970, rx 560/480, etc
jovial ocean
thing is im brand new on the game
im still in the starting area
havent even gotten past movement controls
so people arent loaded in yet
so thats my worr
y
jovial ocean
like if its bad rn hows it gonna be if others load in
fleet steppe
your pc is not able to run the game smoothly
silver ruin
that def sounds like an older than 5 year pc tbh
cause ps4s can run this and those are.....old
fleet steppe
Ahhh
jovial ocean
got it for 600 bucks when i started university
fleet steppe
Yeah.... that's tough. not sure what to say
fleet steppe
you could look for an old gaming laptop with a 1060
jovial ocean
yeah thats the point, its hitting like 15 frames WITHOUT people in game
with the first guy just there
fleet steppe
Yeah its shitting itself lol
jovial ocean
thing is its not overheating
fleet steppe
limsa will likely cause a freeze
jovial ocean
and it can toggle onto high settings and generate them
im 100% sure its also a ram thing
cuz i did a hardware scan
fleet steppe
fx8350 moment
jovial ocean
and my disk writes I/O is
well...
its SUPPOSED to be like
500
but it was 1200 I/O
so either this bitch is mining bitcoin or the RAM clearly isnt enough
jovial ocean
i think both are
fleet steppe
but more than likely it's the gpu
silver ruin
ram is probably fine
jovial ocean
of course
silver ruin
it syour gpu
fleet steppe
Yeah all i can say is sorry, get better hardware
fleet steppe
you can't even do that because it's more than likely that the purchase was for pc so they'd have to buy it again for ps4
silver ruin
you sure they arent on trial?
fleet steppe
Yeah actually
jovial ocean
you can't even do that because it's more than likely that the purchase was for p...
its a complete version yeah.
GOD
silver ruin
yea ok you're screwed
fleet steppe
do i deadass have to shell out 1000 dollars for this game man
eh used laptop maybe 500 usd. at least
jovial ocean
a friend got me the complete version from a bet
so
im good on money spent
i mean not the subscription money
silver ruin
ps4 + game is still cheaper than a pc
silver ruin
if you reaaaally wanna play
jovial ocean
lemme look it up
fossil bloom
what is this used for? i don't see any listing requiring it in the kugane rowena NPC shop
jovial ocean
how old is this GPU
jovial ocean
MOTHERFUCKER
THIS INTEGRATED GRAPHICS CAME OUT 2018
THAT WAS THE YEAR I BOUGHT IT
silver ruin
huh
thats a bad gpu then, i dont think its meant for gaming
its more of a work/school laptop then
if its that new and cant run it
kind tree
whats the best/fastest dungeons to do with your squardon?
jovial ocean
well i mean that doesnt feel right cuz it runs valorant smooth 60 fps
idk
it does
id rather have a smart fridge rn
and its not a bad laptop physically
i just
man...
strange coral
what is this used for? i don't see any listing requiring it in the kugane rowena...
You can trade it for a housing item. It's under the Combat Supplies - Mounts and Miscellany section for that npc
silver ruin
for school work and stuff myabe
maybe*
looked at 3 diff websites, they all said "light gaming"
dont think xiv is light gaming
solemn jewel
i mean the early expansions were made for ps3 in mind
silver ruin
true
jovial ocean
like, the processor is good, the thing has like 4 usb ports and thunderbolt, backlit keyboard is a cute bonus, dummy high battery life
silver ruin
but hes not even loading in correctly
silver ruin

gpu is the bottle neck
it seems like
jovial ocean
its just outright garbage integrated graphics ig
jade quartz
XIV kinda is light gaming.
jovial ocean
and that shit burns up APPARENTLY 2 gigabytes of that
dude it ran every other game i played so far
silver ruin
which other games
jovial ocean
i even played Ark on medium
like 45
yeah but like thats what i dont get
SURELY on low settings
it can manage more than 10 frames
silver ruin
didnt you say you got 10 on full screen and 45 on normal
or 40 on non full screen
something like that
jovial ocean
like i dont mind 30 i fuckin have a nintendo switch
40 on windowed mode when its a quarter size of my screen
silver ruin
try making it half the size of your screen?
jovial ocean
and 15 if fully englarged/borderless windowed
silver ruin
see what teh fps is
silver ruin
dont fully enlarge it/full screen it/borderless window it then tell us the fps, at like half size
where were you , zone wise
starting zone?
jovial ocean
gridania, starting NPC that teaches you how to walk
leaden ginkgo
Ok so I have a treasure map and I deciphered it. I’m at the world that it’s at. How do I find the exact location of the treasure
boreal storm
Use your map
silver ruin
Ok so I have a treasure map and I deciphered it. I’m at the world that it’s at. ...
go to zone, search map, cry
jovial ocean
so other people arent in game yet
fleet steppe
Ok so I have a treasure map and I deciphered it. I’m at the world that it’s at. ...
find zone
find the location that matches
jovial ocean
i am in tears
leaden ginkgo
if its a party map
No it’s not
silver ruin
oh, yea then just use that site and go to the zone and find it
theres a button that says dig
once you'r ein the right area, use that
uhhh
there should be other people around in gridania
so its def your gpu
even at starting out
just thought about it, yea the npcs teach you how to walk and stuff but ive seen other players around during the first quest
atleast in uldah
jovial ocean
even at starting out
no no theres like 4 individuals and i can see them, i mean like, when other players load in its gonna be awful
silver ruin
i could be talking on sleep deprivation, let me look
silver ruin
no no theres like 4 individuals and i can see them, i mean like, when other play...
have you tried running it at half of your screen size and checked the fps?
fleet steppe
no no theres like 4 individuals and i can see them, i mean like, when other play...
are you purposing trying to kill your pc at this point so that you have an excuse to buy a new one? lol
silver ruin
it sounds like running fullscreen doesnt help your fps at all, same with boarderless
nvm you're right
is content even doable in 30 fps in xiv
silver ruin
its
fleet steppe
better yet, boost to 70, unlock bozja, and get into a full castrum 
jovial ocean
and that in combination with setting it at half of my screen boosted it from 10 at borderless, 25 at half screen, to now 45 with the ram allocation tweaked
fleet steppe
is content even doable in 30 fps in xiv
yes, I've got a buddy who cleared e12s on that fps
silver ruin
that is wild
wintry chasm
better yet, boost to 70, unlock bozja, and get into a full castrum <:haha:240841...
Just walk around Pyro or Asmon or something and get melted by 1000 people nearby
silver ruin
ok so
jovial ocean
idk what will happen with bigger areas
fleet steppe
even easier
silver ruin
get to the point where you get to more people
jovial ocean
or players loading in
fleet steppe
Just walk around Pyro or Asmon or something and get melted by 1000 people nearby
go to cactpot board on a saturday night
fleet steppe
you guys pay for my funeral
I'll buy you a ps4 and a copy of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV free trial, which includes the entirety of A Realm Reborn AND the award-winning Heavensward expansion up to level 60 with no restrictions on playtime.
silver ruin
was testing settings for memes, if i lower my settings to 72 refresh rate 1/2 it dips to 42 fps sometimes
what the hell
144 it is
fleet steppe
i play on 120 fps with an r5 2600/rx580 med settings
like cmon
the game is 11 years old
silver ruin
im on high settings 144 , gpu is a 3050ti 
fleet steppe
3050ti what
silver ruin
laptop
fleet steppe
ah okay
silver ruin
but idk why it dips if i hit 72 1/2 refresh rate on game settings 
jovial ocean
I'll buy you a ps4 and a copy of the critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy X...
you have yourself a deal
fleet steppe
but idk why it dips if i hit 72 1/2 refresh rate on game settings <:thinkfish:44...
72 and a half?
silver ruin
1/2 refresh rate
or something like that
144 is 1/1 refresh rate
under system settings
get weird frame dips if i change it to 72 fps 1/2 refresh rate
minor fulcrum
Yeah it's shit
just use your gpu overrides
or an external program to limit fps properly
silver ruin
nah fps isnt an issue, was curious what the other settings did
can confirm they suck

Steam code question! I got the Endwalker preorder, and have already registered the base game + "Endwalker Pre-purchase Bonus Content" codes on my mogstation. I've been told by my friends I can only register the "Endwalker Standard Edition" code after the early access release. Is that correct?
regal pawn
yes
between ea and proper release they'll start sending out the EW codes to sqenix users
that's also when the redemption should become available
river summit
Right, right. For people without those expansions, will SB and ShB become available during the EA as well?
regal pawn
I was told yes and no
but mostly no
wintry chasm
Yeah pretty sure it's official launch
regal pawn
Industrial lied to me, the bastard

• This product also includes Stormblood and Shadowbringers expansion packs, which will only be provided when Endwalker is officially released.

i'd like to ask something, if anyone knows the answer
my gf is currently f2p and she'd like to buy EW
if she preorders it now, will she get the other 2 expansions too or just EW?
heavy wadi
we don't know where in ul'dah though
tacit jungle
close enough, just need somewhere to log out
solemn jewel
i'd like to ask something, if anyone knows the answer
my gf is currently f2p and...
The other 2 as well but she needs starter edition to use the codes
And the others will unlock at release
shell geyser
so she needs to buy the base game as well?
zinc orbitBOT
tacit jungle
what sush said, the free edition is actually a whole different client than a subscription account uses.
faint flare
You can't use dlc for a game you don't own

would log out in your inn room in the quicksand if you wanna rush for rpr

leaden ginkgo
what is the thing with the coffee biscuits i keep hearing about
boreal storm
A former money maker
solemn jewel
Something that won't matter in 3 days
It's a Culinarian lvl 80 leve that can net you a lot of money with little work to put in
leaden ginkgo
outdated ?
leaden ginkgo
how do you do it
leaden ginkgo
i just need xp to get to 80 i don’t really care about the gil
boreal storm
Make coffee biscuit, give coffee biscuit, money
leaden ginkgo
you can turn in 3 sets ?
strange coral
You can turn in 9 at a time iirc. Turn in a stack of 3, then they'll do the "do you have more to submit" thing twice. And then pick up the leve again and repeat
solemn jewel
The payout will be nerfed with Endwalker so we gotta wait for the next quick money scheme
boreal storm
That isn’t scamming people on MB
solemn jewel

Are they changing the uh.. dwarven mithril file (?) as well?
I heard that one was rather simple too

It's leves in general they're adjusting

Fastest way to farm gil to buy a house?

You can't get anything other than mounts with Stormblood EX totems, right? There's no special glamour or crafting items for the shiny versions of the weapons that you can only get with totems?
fleet steppe
You can't get anything other than mounts with Stormblood EX totems, right? There...
no, only mounts and normal weapons
twilit arch
weapons and mounts are all that the totems buy for stormblood exs
open coral
Okay good. Just wanted to be sure before I started trashing totems to make space for EW.
heavy jewel
any idea if we are going to get any new gold saucer games and events in endwalker?
twilit arch
unless you didnt level desynth
may as well buy the shields and desynth them for the crafted item
open coral
I have one crafter at level 50. I don't have desynth leveled at all because I'm laaaaazzyyy.
twilit arch
any idea if we are going to get any new gold saucer games and events in endwalke...
they mentioned updates to the gold saucer but didn't go in depth on what exactly the updates will be
heavy wadi
it could very well be just adding new rewards
boreal storm
Probably just new items
thorn thicket
I remember them saying updated Gold Saucer a while back but if I were to guess, it’d be like 2/3 of the “EW” stuff and actually be in 6.1, not 6.0x

Hey so I'm trying to gift an FC member Endwalker on PSN
Only problem is they're in a different region
Is there any way I can circumvent this and probably purchase a code for their region?

open coral
Hey so I'm trying to gift an FC member Endwalker on PSN
Only problem is they're...
You can't gift XIV on PSN at all because of how the game links to accounts.
The PS version doesn't use codes - they just automatically apply the game to the SE account that your PSN ID is linked to.
mystic gorge
So what you're saying is I CAN'T gift them Endwalker
open coral
Correct

is there a loop command for macros?
open coral
No. That would be botting.
sudden dock
i know exp bars for battle/crafters are getting reset with endwalker but did they say anything about desynth level getting reset?
faint flare
No
Cause it's not using normal xp
It's only for stuff using normal xp
Jobs, trusts, retainers
boreal storm
If they dropped desynth back to 0, people would be pissed
random sphinx
does the free trial have a time limit or am I allowed to play the game as much as I want to level 60
strange coral
As much as you want
random sphinx
wow that's really nice
strange coral
You can keep playing at 60, just can't level past 60
Or move on to Stormblood content
random sphinx
I want to get leveled for the new expansion coming out, if I max my free trial cap I can just start on the new expansion?
queen fern
You also have some chat restrictions, your gil is capped at 300k, and you can't join a Free Company.
wintry chasm

No
The story and progression is linear
Free trial you can finish the first expansion
random sphinx
ok, do I have to buy every expansion or can I just buy the new one and then quest through everything?
wintry chasm
That means when you get off free trial you got Stormblood and Shadowbringers story before you can do Endwalker
queen fern
I want to get leveled for the new expansion coming out, if I max my free trial c...
You have to buy the standard edition and Endwalker, then finish Heavensward, Stormblood, and Shadowbringers to start Endwalker.
wintry chasm
^
random sphinx
so new expansion comes with all other expansions
random sphinx
ahh cool
boreal storm
What item level is needed for the end of SHB msq
random sphinx
so I can max my trial, then buy endwalker to get totally caught up
wintry chasm
so I can max my trial, then buy endwalker to get totally caught up
You'd need the starter edition too but yes basically
Because you still need to buy the base game
queen fern
What item level is needed for the end of SHB msq
For 5.0? 430. For the very end? Uh... 495?
random sphinx
so I'm looking at 80 bucks once I max free trial for both base game and endwalker
which is fine
just asking lol
warm snow
so I can max my trial, then buy endwalker to get totally caught up
Yes but you'll still be capped at 60 til Friday, and you'll need to play through all the other expansions
Just warning in advance
warm snow
so I'm looking at 80 bucks once I max free trial for both base game and endwalke...
That is the most cost effect solution yes
random sphinx
yep that's fine, I'm looking for an MMO with good story content so that doesn't bother me
boreal storm
For 5.0? 430. For the very end? Uh... 495?
Okay I’m at 479, so that’s not a big jump
warm snow
If you can, preorder Endwalker before next Tuesday so you can still get the bonus code
You'll have til March to redeem the preorder code
warm snow
What item level is needed for the end of SHB msq
End of shb: 475, start of endwalker: 500
random sphinx
good info, thanks! lots of time to learn the game and get caught up
warm snow
Contents not going anywhere and our director actively dislikes fomo
Don't worry about rushing

Also stay FAR AWAY from the lore spoilers channel.
warm snow
Oh yeah
random sphinx
will do, all I've heard is how great the story is so I'm excited to get into it

Best to stay away from anything ff14 related till you finish msq in endwalker.
wintry chasm
Well...
prisma hill
People have loose mouths
wintry chasm
Maybe keep this channel open lol
random sphinx
lol understandable, coming from destiny 2 everything got spoiled
heavy wadi
people are generally good about spoilers
but come friday
definitely be super careful
random sphinx
thanks for the tip
going in blind for the best experience, just wanted to know how much it costs to get deeper once I hit 60
prisma hill
Well it could be unintentional.
Like googling a picture of a character could ruin a reveal or somethiingb.
warm snow
If you're still on free trial you almost definitely won't be getting into the game on Friday
prisma hill
Like if you google a certain masked character...
pictures of him unmasked are there.
Even me saying this now, is a spoiler already lol
