Exactly XD
as a free trial character I can still group for dungeons right? Just can't invite, only join
Yes
Yes, you'll be able to use the duty finder, which is basically automatic match making
cool. Rolled a maurader tank for faster lfg, hoping that works out lol
Healers have fasterst pops.
ah well I always do tank first, then DPS for alts, then healer if I'm feeling spicy
I'm also a main tank, so I understand, Warrior is nice but it takes a bit to wind up.
but thats all the classes.
What's up with kholusia and all the bots? Why are they just going around killing random enemies?
I'm just happy this game seems to play so well on a ps5 controller, hopefully that won't be a problem later on
it won't, controller is perfectly viable
unless they have gibberish names they're prooobably not bots, instead blue mages power leveling
They have normalish names, but not blue mages, they all insta-target heal me when I switch classes so I'm 90% sure they're bots
whats gonna happen to my revelation/allegory tomestones?
Trade for poetics
when ew drops
You have to eat them, one by one.
Is cryptlurker gear going to be purchasable with poetics?
ok basically convert them into poetics thru npc when ew drops
The augmented version, yes.
Should I spend all my non-poetic tomestones on something or save them for some reason when the expansion drops?
Kk
Sheath your weapon until it goes away
should be
Depends
Not sure we know the trade in rates.
I saved them in hopes for trading poetics and gettng augumented cryptlurker gear for my side jobs.
It's easy to get poetics with roulettes
2 revelations for 1 poetics, or 1 revelation for 2 poetics?
NG+ - If you're redoing a crafter/gathering questline do you have to re-make/gather the item required for the quest and turn it in? Wondering if I should skip the crafter skill unlocks for now and just replay the story after
Heavensward MSQ starts at level 50 right
Not right when you hit level 50. You have all of the 2.x patches to do at 50 before reaching HW
It's a level 50 quest, but msq levels are not your character levels
2.0 ends at 50, 2.1-2.5 are also at 50, Then 3.0 starts at 50.
I presume ARR questline ends at 50 then
If I buy something on the square enix shop, is it normal to wait... a bit long to receive an email? XD
very - especially if it's accountwide
I bought the Endwlk extension, and I didn't receive anything and on the website it is not even mentioned I paid for it XD It's like nothing happened even though I paid krkrkr
Did take a few minutes for me last time.
It's not out yet
or do you mean the preorder items
I mean an e mail saying I paid for something XD
Probably depends with what you paid for it.
Pay..pal? >O>
i just got dced from the game and now it says I need to update my game, its not doing it automatically when i open the launcher. is there somewhere im supposed to manually update?
I thought I would receive a code to add the proorder to my extensions on my account on mog station. Doesn't it that way? I'm lost, plus I'm stupid so nothing works well with me XD
When I preordered endwalker, I got the email witht he code, but the funds were detracted like 2 months later for some reason lol
with paypal

I like only recently got the email that my paypal was billed for it lol
For preorders they don't charge until closer to release date
So it could take months for it xD
me it's the contrary, I instant received the mail from Paypal that I paid for the preorder, but nothing from SE
I got the code instantly though.
This is what I'm talking about
Yeah the code comes through quickly, or it applies to your account
I don't remember how I got it anymore though.
Per e-mail I think
where is alpine coat? https://i.imgur.com/GayLwAh.png
https://secure.square-enix.com/account/app/svc/mogstation go here and see if it has a circle next to "Endwalker Early Access"
FINAL FANTASY XIV専用サービス管理ページ「モグステーション」です。
Quest rewards, iirc
thx
Thank Lord, as a french person who likes to complain I just had to wait and God sent me the e-mail. Thanks for you help mates ❤️ I received the code I'll activate it on mog station
Soon I'll have it I hope
They sent me something like this
If you have the circle, you dont even need to redeem the code because you might have ordered while signed in
Oh I'll check that
That wont work
they send you a code which you have to put into mog station
with instructions
This is what I'm going to do~
Hello, I just wanted to ask a quick question about game time if anyone could help.
Just ask, and someone will answer if they know
Well, my subscription recently expired. I wanted to see about getting more time but could only find 60 days (which I can't afford at the moment). Mogstation has "Add a subscription" for 30 days for half the price. Do they work the same or do I have to buy a time card?
works the same
Papi, I have another question.. I finally redeemed the code and I took the collector version and there is the circle for the Endwlk extension but there isn't the circle that mentions I took the collector one. Is it normal, is it the same for you?
Oh cool, real glad to hear that. Thank y'all for your time.
It's normal
Okidoki ~ Thanks >O<
You won't be able to redeem the normal EW code until after Early access and before release
around that timeframe
oooh does it mean I'll receive another email with a new code is that right?
can you enter and exit bozja to try and get a castrum pop?
yes
what are the ‘other master recipes’ on culinarian
The one you haven't learned I guess? Master recipes come from the Master books, 8 books for each crafter
i learned all 8 books just now
but there are ‘other recipes’ for each class, i don’t know what they are for cul though
where do you see the master 7 and 8 recipe's? only goes from 1-6 in the crafting log
Whats the better place for leveling, bsf or zadnor? And does exp differ per zone or is it the same for all 3?
eulmore
either is fine for leveling
the only difference is zad gives more mettle
so if you want to get your honors, go to zadnor z3
Yeah, thats what Ive been doing. But apparently skirmishes are faster and closer in bsf?
And dont have the times where they melt before you get a hit in apparently
Does BOT/MIN use macros or anything? I've been just running diadem with the automine feature clicked
Is the new reaper class accessible from endwalker pre-order?
No
Sickkk
So its just braindead clicking for dol?
Max level dol takes a bit more thinking when you need to gather stuff that's not 100% HQ chance. Or collectibles (but even those have simple rotations)
Although gathering won't give HQ items after 6.0 anymore, so probably something's going to change to retain some difficulty at max level
yes
Its braindead in a relaxing way imo.
does anybody know if SE is actually able to refund an unused, but unlocked game code?
i wanted to gift the game + EW to my gf, but she registered on a different region than the one i purchased the codes from
For Paladin Anima Weapons I dont need to do the quest 2x to get the sword and shield rt?
Do I miss out on anything by subbing but not getting the expansions before I get there in the story besides not being able to play certain Jobs?
dont know, didn't get the collectors edition
no
no
You won't be able to play as viera or rothgar. That's about it
Thanks, not played since 2013 so starting out a little slow before going all in
Will I be marked as a sprout btw?
you'll get the other sign
If you are starting a new character, yes. If you're returning with an old character you get the flower 
Gotcha, thanks
guess not lol
Will most likely have no idea what I'm doing at first, had a lvl50 summoner.
And yes I did read about the overhaul of summoners
returned like 5 months ago
Nice, wb
i got the flower for like a month, then it changed to a sprout icon for a bit
went away after a while xD
Ah yea, I guess after the returner status wears off, you'll get the sprout icon back if you haven't met the current requirements, which is 168 hours playtime and Stormblood MSQ finished (including patches) iirc
Despite having an Excellent connection (and even getting chat and stuff) I keep DC-ing after like 30 seconds; when I try looking at my FC nothing loads so that may be relevant; what's happening and how do I stop it?
Already tried closing and reopening and trying after a full restart now
Something wrong with your graphicscard maybe?
...I don't see how that'd be related...?
You said "nothing loads"
Oh no I mean info
Can I redeem 'FINAL FANTASY XIV Endwalker Collector's Edition Content' now? Mog Station won't let me, I purchased on Steam
any info on that pls?
#questions-and-help message
Graphically it's fine
no, not yet
sometime after early access starts you can
ok thanks, just wanted to make sure~
I was able to redeem the pre-purchase bonus content
It's constant DC-ing that's the issue
Na has been having issues
Honestly I'd suspect a routing problem. Maybe try something like exitlag
What's that?
You'll probably have to contact SE support and ask them. Personally I've never heard of a situation like that.
VPN intended to reduce latency
already did, but i was wondering if people had any experiences with it ^_^;
That can't be the issue though, almost everything runs fine save for FC info (maybe another thing or two but I can't find anything else)
Like, I experience no lag until I get booted
Error is 90002 if that's helpful
I even see NN chat running too (but not like I can ask for help there in 30 seconds)
Yes ik that but I legit experience everything normal and lag-free save for FC
can i disable macro sound effects? its kinda annoying when people spam it on chat
is it against tos giving some money for help in pf ?
i am trying to form a group for a friend that didnt clear e12 but we have no fc and i have done it but finding ppl is impossible
gear is the crafted 90 white gear, recipes for new combat gear are released at the same time as savage, you can gather some of the mats ahead of time yeah but not everything(forgot if it's sand or tome materials you need that is released with the books), food there's a new recipe book but it isn't necessarily the BiS food, pots I forgot I wanna say there's a new tier maybe
you can kinda just look at 80 stuff to see how it worked, especially using gamerescape wiki which notes the release patch on items
it's the shit that has no use basically
most of the major mats required for the new crafted gear is going to come with savage
some of the folklore nodes will have no use until that patch
best way to prep for savage tier is to have your crafters and gatherers geared out

Yes
yeah as I said it's the 90white gear you'll be able to craft right away
see dwarven silk shit for 80 cap
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Facet_Coat_of_Healing this is crafted gear released with savage(see how it says 5.05), you can check mats to see how it worked
do you need to complete delubrum to buy resistance armor?
for example it uses Ethereal Silk which was added in 5.05, which uses Multifaceted Cotton Cloth a material added in 5.05 for tomes, and ethereal cocoon a folklore node added in 5.0 which had no use before that
so you can just gather a bunch of the starred 90 mats that have no use to prepare for that, and make sure you have tomes/money ready to buy new materials
the leather and the grade 2 mind alkahests work the same way, need tome mats+pre existing mats to make new mat
Which set of gear? If you mean the i510 Law’s Order stuff that comes from the Silver/Gold coins from Delubrum
If you mean the i525 Blade’s gear from Zadnor, then no.
well you have to complete it once to get to zadnor
Aight I tried it and all that happened was that it reduced my DC time from 30 seconds to 5
So at least it got right to the "lol no"?
is it working? and can you select a location with exitlag? never used it but if you don't change the route enough sometimes it won't do anything if you still route through the same shitty nodes
Ok I'll try that
like if it lets you change stuff you can try rerouting through a different country, it'll be laggier but you can see if it's stable at least
then work from there
Right after this next attempt I'm halfway through anyway
That's a good point yeah I'll try that
Errrrr
Dose “good intentions” mission needs subscription?
Getting out of it actually seems to have fixed it so
Nvm
But my FC info loaded that time so that's a start?
looks like 2.5 quest so no sub needed
Yeah It’s ARR so no
But I can’t play hard dungeons
cause you haven't unlocked them
Go to the waking sands
there's no restriction on content you can queue for
!faq msqtracker
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
you just can't use the PF to start a party as trial, but you can join PF, or queue DF if it's not EX content(even if it is, in ARR it should work)
Hard mode instances is just a modifier
It should be better thought of as "instance, part 2"
Anyone has tips what gear to prepare for my Repear once endwalker comes out?
So I am ready to exp endwalker with him
Scaven
https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/A_Recurring_Problem do this quest to start unlocking hard modes
So how I find the hard dungeon?
Scaevan gear at 70, Cryptlurker at 80
Unlock them, do 
And whatever dungeon gear you want to grind for from the 75/77/79 dungeons
poetics on scaevan, craft some gear at ~76+, prep cryptlurker
Maiming left side, slaying right side, don't buy belt, don't buy earring if you have preorder earring(for scaevan at least)
It'll be either unlocked as part of the quest or was unlocked earlier
If it's the latter find it in your duty finder
does anyone know what is the best item for me to gather to earn some gills?
It’s World-dependent
it all depends on your marketboard and your understanding of economics
ok is there any way for me to find it or do i have to look through the whole market board
Because the marketboard is 100% a commodity system since all required or high end stuff is 99% earnable via effort
the latter
Safe bets on items that sell is always current expansion stuff
As well as current endgame stuff
well realistically stuff isn't going to sell well right now, it's 3days before maintenance > new expansion, most people are dumping old crap and not looking to buy stuff much
you can also try farming hidden node items from HW but seeing as we're about to hit a new expansion I have no idea what the markets will look like in 4 days
now you wait until friday, get in EW and you can probably sell basically about anything you gather there for 1k+ for like a week
if you're not max level and stuff, then you wait to see what new item from old expansions is needed for new stuff, they always seem to do that now
tl;dr, economics 101
Yes
It will be updated
Whether or not world's will give it, don't hold your breath
can you unsync dungeons for WT
yes
Central coerthas, gotta get it to spawn tho
Thx
so, i dont have stormblood neither shadowbringers but will i really be able to do them dec 3? i have endwalker early acess
but there's some ppl saying that it only releases 10
friday
EW’s official release is the 7th
and the early acess?
The 3rd
so i'll be able to do stormblood content?
On the 7th
oh no way
It's on the FAQ on the website
Yes

I've got 2000 allagan tomes if allegory What can I spend them on before early access?
You don't get them in the 3rd
something like that?
You get them on the 7th
oh
It's literally in the faq on the lodestone
I thought they go away though or do they stay but become unusable?
where do i see that?
You trade them for poetics
Where?
Not now, EW isn’t out yet
I have maxed out poetics
You'll still have the old tomestones in your currency, but their only use will be to trade in for poetics during 6.0. Usually at one of the tomestone vendors, such as at Mor Dhona.
So you'll be able to spend your poetics on whatever, then trade in the old tomestones to get more poetics
does anyone have any tips for the last grind for the Skysteel fishing? just to get the collectable fish
Question: How exactly does Plenary Indulgence work? Cause I use it, case Medica II and the buff stays there
Every aoe heal triggers it
oh so its not a one-use only buff?
It's not a one time thing
Yeah
It basically make WHM really good at repeated GCD AOE heals
For like e12s p2 enrage or something
so it looks like I've completed the return to ivalice story, but when I try to do it in NG+ I don't see it under alliance raids (is it under alliance raids?)
There's a few side quests on the ship that you need to do to "complete" it
fffffffffff, i don't remember anything about the story, and I was told to do it before doing ShB
this is my ivalice story line, is there one missing?
hm, where can I find the ship
Kugane
!skill confession
!skill plenery indulgence
Grants Confession to self and nearby party members.
Upon receiving HP recovery via Medica, Medica II, Cure III, or Afflatus Rapture cast by self, Confession triggers an additional healing effect.
Cure Potency: 200
Duration: 10s
So for 10s every aoe spell triggers a plenery indulgence
I'm pretty sure it stacks with multiple whms
That's how rng works
So the way I understand it if I buy the endWalker pre-order I don't have access to shadowbringers until it releases correct? Reason I am asking is I currently own final fantasy XIV on PC and working through 5.0 currently but just got a ps5. Seems like a waste of money to buy shadowbringers now when I can just buy endwalker and have access to it next week. I can't think of any way to get access to Shadowbringers on PS5 right now without buying it's expansion which becomes obsolete next week.
You get it on the 7th
Right. No way to get access to it now without shelling out for the shadow bringer expansion? Nah.
Yeah, no way
To be clear - if you want to play XIV on your PS5, but you only currently have the PC version, you'll need to buy the Complete Edition once Endwalker releases, not just the Endwalker expansion.
However if you want to continue playing on your PC, you'd only need to buy the Endwalker expansion.
What's going to happen to Allegory and Revelation tomestones come EW? Do I need to spend them now or anything?
You manually convert them into poetics
4:1 and 2:1 ratio respectively
Free 1500 poetics
What happens to job skips come Endwalker? Do they get boosted to 80 instead?
Also, will get a Shadowbringers story skip?
Nearing the end of SB. Approx how long is 5.1-5.55? Want to see if I can make it by release
a whole day if you wake up early and don't do anything else but msq
about 12 hours
(and assuming you have friends to queue for you)
wait when you say
SB
did you mean Shadowbringers
because if you're at the end of the original Shadowbringers story, you can do that in like 6 hours
I was taking into account all of Shadowbringers in its entirity since SB is generally used to describe Stormblood lol
So on Friday, all of the Revelation tomestones will become Poetics? Is that how it works?
Oh manually. Thank you.
So I should wait then to buy the cryptlurker weapons?
If our trust people are around level 73 right now, is that where they will start in endwalker (after all the story runs and you're fully unlocked), or will they start at 80?
would be easier with 6.0 ye
since it should be a straight poetic buy from the npc
rather than having to do the song and dance of trading tokens and such
You don't need to level them
They'll be the required level for the story when needed
Levelling them is only.for repeated runs
Yeah, I'm trying to figure out for after the story, if you want to repeat the runs.
they haven't mentioned anything about them automatically being leveld to 80 for endwalker stuff for repeat
but the assumption is you'd need to level them
they level very quickly now
so shouldn't take too long
Mm, okay. So I should start working on getting them up to 80.
Do i need to do anything before going into Eureka for the weapon grind or anything
I think that's what that is anyway
You'll want to have finished one of the jobs with a Stormblood antiquated gear coffer

when will be able to purchase 2 star mount speed?
When you get the currency for it...hunts in arr-sb, gemstones in shadowbringers
It's only ground speed so not really worth wasting seals
... if you are currently doing msq, how far past arr is flying
Literally after finishing Base arr
For arr zone
Which is way before being able to earn seals
You basically get flying before even being able to buy mount speed ups
Basically everywhere
how come i cant join this pf? i have it unlocked but it says required duty not yet complete
do i have it ocmplete it through queue first?
Ohh, I misread that heavensward schtick
You can't join Duty complete groups if you haven't completed it yet
thought it said you have to do aether currents before you unlock flying ANYwhere
Wdym by finished
That's heavensward onwards
Arr didn't have flying by default
It was slapped on this expansion
it doesnt say duty compelte
See the yellow tags
i crafted too much of these antiques, i didnt know zhloe's requests reset, i just discard them or can i turn them in somehow?
Sorry, I mean I'm about to complete the main SB story, 5.0. Post SB content 5.1-5.55 is only 6?
assuming non-stop yeah
So what is the class/job lvl that you need to have, so if you change the class/job you get an XP boost for that.
Faster XP for the new class/job that you take.
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 80 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 69, which then reduces to +50% for level 70 to 79. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
Thank you so much
hey; I dunno if its the right channel to ask but; is anyone free (I'm on crystal coeurl) to join me for fate farming?
Im trying to earn memories of the dying for the resistance weapon
Not that kind of questions and help channel
ah my bad
I'll give that a shot thx
Good morning guys! I'm trying to pre-order Endwalker from the SE store (US) and I keep running into that credit card error thingy. I've done all the usual measures (eg use a different card, different browser, Paypal etc). Was wondering if anybody knew how to solve that issue
Quick Q:
What's this symbol mean?
Looking to meld materia
Looking for meld
Sometimes it can mean something else but that's what it means
Ah, okay. Thank you.
(And judging by the clan tag, if "something else" means what I think it does in this context, their materia is probably fine.)
I need to find people for Whorleater extreme, so how can I find people without using queue?
Have fun though
Aw, man. Whorleater Ex? I never wanna do that one synced.
People might get upset at you
Just do unreal /s
Just some advice; if you're going to use the Party Finder, make sure to watch a guide unless you wanna get frustrated
good to know
Alternatively just Unsync it

Hey so say I’m married and potentially want to get a divorce if my long time gf enjoys the game. How does one divorce? Just delete the bond? And then you can get remarried? Does the other person keep the mount and stuff?
You both got the mount and the related items, you can remarry
That’s what we thought but we never heard of anyone getting a divorce in the game
Talk to the Sanctum Acolyte with your eternity ring
Alrighty will do when I get home. Thanks
Be warned this is only on your side
Ah so the other person will still be married to me and can tele to me?
Yep, so that can be awkward
is this close enough to succeed?
Every stat Is a 33% chance
Only flagged missions need all 3
So 66% chance
2/3 is good enough for everything else
Is there any way to turn off on screen controller button prompts?
My retainers both hit level 50 today (botanist and miner). There are 6 different woodland and highland explorations available. Are there "best" ones to pick?
Those who preorder Endwalker get early access? Or is it just for steam
Anyone
Okay so pre ordered users get access when?
dec 3
3rd
Ok ty
Am I missing something with the duel cheese for menenius?
I used font of magic, chainspell, ordained, bravery, noble ends and excellence and used embolden as RDM and only got him down to 22%
Is the 15% from a tincture and manafication making the difference?
Potions, food, Manafaction, used flare star too late and/or a buff fell off
Ontop of your own melee combo
Remember buffs are multiplitive
More the better
hmm I timed all my buffs within the last 20 seconds of the countdown
Even then it gets really tight when doing pot, Manafaction and Embolden while doing melee combo and flare star
and literally at the start of the fight I corps a corps in and embolden (manafication was on cd because I fat fingered) banner and flare star
So I guess missing the tincture, food and mana would have made a diff
What time does maintenance start on Friday?
1am pdt Thursday
9am ST on Thursday
Did they say exactly where in ul'dah the reaper quests start?
No
Nope
Inb4 outside the thaumaturge guild cause that's a morgue
Ok thanks, just making 😊

We’ll know when preliminary patch notes are up, if they put one up
If not, then the full patch notes during maintenance
They normally do
Ok
Probably up tomorrow or Wednesday
What included in the patch note early access?
Basically most stuff that doesn’t include tradable things
To avoid manipulating the markets before the changes happen
The job action site will be updated to have those.
Hun, nice
The patch notes won’t have the changes since there’d be too many to list.
I see
Anyone know where sage will be? I know its in limsa but don't know where by
Limsa
As we just said we don't know exacts
Sorry just booted up my bad

Hi sorry where would I go to find a few people for a quick undersized party run on this discord?
party finder in-game is the best option
does double caster double melee incur LB penalty in savage raids?
so sam rpr smn rdm would be fine, but rpr rpr smn blm would be bad
Yes
cool, thank you
Right
can i change it so certain people cant use orchestrion in fc?

what time does it end?
24h later
It's 24hours
what
No it won't end ealry
expac maints are always 24hrs
It's a full expansion
Check your FC rank privileges in the housing section.
I think Orchestrion management is one of them
Oh boi just 50 quests left to complete a realm reborn 😗
All I gotta say is I'm really loving it alot
@weary garnet please use the channels in the correct purpose. This channel is not a reaction or discussion channel
Sorry :/
Are there any NA preferred servers at the moment? A friend and I want to transfer to the same world without paying the fee so we want to transfer to a new world to avoid the fee
There's none anywhere
Damn thank you
Also that’s not what a new world means
New world means a brand new, “we just created this” server
Which, there is none
Yeah I'm in a congested world so I also wanted to avoid the queue when expansion drops
There aren’t any congested worlds
Based on server status there are
No
They're all standard
Creation of characters ISNT congestion
It's the giant labelling word OF CONGESTED
Oh sorry got mixed, yeah not congested but no character creation either
Vs standard
Allowing character creation changes on the fly
It depends on how many people are playing at the time
Do you think they will have preferred worlds after expansion drops?
Lol no
Nope
That would be fucking madness
only for materia and only if it's emptyish aftert a month

You need to remember just how many people will be returning
If I use a Fantasia and log out till EW, will the effect still persist? (As in, right click my name to change appearance before logging in)
yes
ty
Whats the best way to convert poetics into gil
make sure you log out naked
!faq poetics
Actually forgot that. Thank you too
so you can apply fantasia right away instead of logging in, removing items, then logging out, using fantasia, then relogging again
Why?
for fantasia
You can't fantasia with gear on
Oh yeah that's right
Thanks!
Another way to convert extras into Gil : always greed dungeon gear, turn them into your grand company, then buy Duck Bones from the NPC there through seals. They sell for 360 gil each.
360g : 600 seals
almost certainly
so satan uses bots too huh
and ofc they are lalafells
btw they were extremely weird
as soon as i started following them they each split off and starting attuning atherite back to back
yeah, definitely bots
Invite them to a party and watch them glitch
You’re ruining their developer’s income that way)
how do i join a dungeon in the duty finder as a Blue Mage?
rip
You dony
You can’t
or solo because you're a strong independant BLU
Is the pre-order only available for PC? Can’t find it for a PS4 in square’s site
Everyone
It's not a special thing on the console store
Just buy the expansion now and it's a preorder
no bonuses ?
Even if it’s this?
Xp earring, minion and access to Endwalker content
You go through ps store
Are all of the dungeons from the msq during SHB doable with the A.I party?
yes
And will endwalker also have this feature you think?
yes
I enjoy playing from my ps5 on my couch, but I really suck with the controller so I don't want to burden other players 
Hello, I'm new to the game and I created my very first character but once I strat the game and go into the first cinematic after the character creation, the game crash and its says Directx 11 error
What should I do?
My drivers are up to date
Is GNB's stat priority Comfy SkS > Crit > DH > Det like the other tanks not named Warrior?
What’s a good level to be for the expansion? I’m currently at 495
then again it's mostly single player content and it's never teeth shatteringly difficult
so it'll take you a few more seconds to kill a mob
not a big deal
eh most people will be doing trusts i reckon
For repeats
can I finish the entirety of post shadowbringers in the next two days
its not too long right
no skipping of course
good luck lol
Possibly?
sure but you'll have to play a decent amount
here we goooo
Grab an energy drink and some snacks 
you might hit a gear ilvl roadblock on dungeon requirements
so you'll have to do a raid or two
or buy exarchic
but buying exarchic for basically 3 days
im about to do the final msq of shadowbringers main story. woo
doesnt sound like a wise financial decision for me
Hey sorry to ask this again, but would I have time to level up my gunbreaker to 80 before EW
It's 70 rn
I have about 2 hours to play a day
If you go fast yes
oh by the way, they dont remove the crafted gear upgrade thingies, right? and also were there similar thingies for previous expansions?
Then no
Pretty sure no
I think upgraded stormblood crafted is still there
was there such a system for hw?
hm, did they swap stormblood thingies to poetics?
can still augmented stormblood crafted
i mean the crystalline rain analogue
the items are still there for poetics
cool
So, do they make us reglam equipment before we can equip it if it's glammed to a female only item if we fantasia over to male?
it will just have a note saying 'invalid glamour'
same as if you glammed an item that is job specific, but are not on that job
you'll still be able to use the item but not the appearance
hmm so if im all bikini glammed on a non-shared piece it will just go like emperors? it wont error out until the glam changes to an acceptable one?
or rather if i have a set that is just a female only piece
so my gloves are glammed to ast af gear
as you can see i'm on white mage, and the gloves don't show the af gear because its job specific
yeah but if it's one of the bikini tops that are female only that arent glammed but the actual lev 1 piece
why would it be any different
It follows the same rule
it'll show whatever is the base gear
a requirement doesn't fit
it won't show the glam
so it doesnt work
so in that case it would appear as emperor?
No
are you wearing emperor?
As it's normal gear look
if that's what you have the bikini glammed onto
you cant have gear on while using fantasia
you have to remove all gear, barring weapon, before using a fantasia
ok so it will error out on the female only lev 1 sets
you can exchange a lot of sets
If you’re not a female, you can’t wear female only gear
if they have a male option
And they usually do
arent some of the mog station ones set to just female?
Unless it’s like story NPC gear or something
that explains why i've never seen men in y'shtola dress
does the eastern lady stuff have a male equivalent to change to?

how can i unlock the dueling?
how long does it take to actually get through arr now?
Bozja
It's automatic in bojza
You just need to not get any vuln stacks in the previous CE
need to do the CE that spawns it without taking any unnecessary damage
thanks
Or dying

It's Zadnor
wait no
So it's Red machine thing
XD never seeing the red choctober duel
Should I get the ugly moogle treasure jacket or just get a mount id prob use more, jacket is ugly to me and dont really want it, but its exclusive sorta
Literally nulls the fight
don't even need reflect
Plus it's easy anyway
dodging in that 1 is easier than belias
It's the others that bait shit everywhere
and belias isn't too bad either
thats another one i'm never seeing
The mounts come from extremes, jacket is temporary
That doesn't have a duel
yeah it's wolf for that zone
just not able to practice it like a raid XD even worse for the duel
assuming i can get notoriety
Just dodge kappa
its so ugly tho
imo
and tbh YAH mount would be easy to get
lvl 90s soon so i can solo unsync prob at 90
for those
the two mounts are nidhogg and byakko
i heard you can solo nidhogg ex on a tank
idk, all i need is like 4 more prae runs and id have it but
i dont want it to wear it, just its timed and wont be around again for a while
its the idea of "ugly but rare"
When exactly are the servers going down to implement the 6.0 patch & for how long? Or is it not known yet?
thursday 1am
On the lodestone
24 hours
9am ST
personally if you don't like it and don't see yourself ever using it for glam, i wouldn't bother with it. its a waste of an inventory slot in your glam dresser/retainer
comes up friday 1am pst for me
honestly ill get the minions more a fan of them
Tysvm
yall think they will change the 1-70 boost to 1-80 at start of endwalker? How did it work for previous expansion?
ok cool was hoping so
gonna get summoner to 80? XD
ha its just have 6 classes at 70 atm (1 tank, 1 healer, and 4 dps') and I wana bring one of my alts to 80 and not worry about trying to level them all at once.
Lol you think they’re gonna give us road to 80
With 0 preferred worlds at the moment
well road to 70 will be upgrade to 80
but like probably won't see any preferred worlds for a while
OCE will probably have some
I can't seem to log back in, my internet is fine.
OCE will 100% have them
because they will be new servers
but OCE isn't going to be a thing until 6.1 at the earliest
Would it be better to hold onto tomes of allegory and revelation or use them all now? I know they will be converted to poetics but will the use I get out of converting them outweigh their value currently?
depends on what goes to different tomes and what leaves tomes all together
I'm trying to level THM/BLM. Is it a good idea to just use the AI squad?
So does queue 😛
potd is gonna be faster, but you can use those to level up your squadron
can do fates while you wait for DPS queue
Yeah, I leveled my DPS jobs with my squad and found it to be faster
potd is gonna be fastest
Unless you have the earrings no?
I do
the 30% earrings have no change on the xp you earn from potd
I mean it's better to run with squadron if you have the earrings
what is the sprout icon with the yellow circle under the sprout?
I've never seen it before and now one of my friends on trial has that icon
Sprout under level...I think 20? in a party with a mentor
they get a small exp bonus
hmm
It's pretty worthless
How do you unlock Super Sprint in Chocobo Racing??
No it doesn't
it actually does
Ah it does in friend list
Hey all, just started over the weekend. Is there a benefit to picking up the expansions before I hit 60, or is it fine to level with the free version until then?
If you buy Endwalker now you get exp up earring
That’s all
btw are you on free trail?
yeah
^
cool, thanks
I'm in the middle of stormblood and super burnt out on the endless story fetch quests.. (I've also done all the raids and duties up till now) I really want to be there for the fresh new expansion but it feels like story will never end and has zero challenge to keep me interested. Does shadowbringers get more interactive or is it still mindless fetch quests?
Is it normal for Zadnor to feel super empty?
Story is not intended to be challenging.
I've run through all of Z1 and Z2 and haven't bumped into anyone.
It's casual content meant to be cleared by everyone
Most Zadnor people are in z3
Zadnor is usually populated at this time
Also check the player search
Well it should at least be fun and interactive ffs not just mindless fetch quests
Check player list, maybe re-instance
Incase it's a dead instance
If you want a challenge, there's always the Extreme trials and Savage raids.
when do msq quests get engaging ?
um so whats with the ffxiv 1.0 trailer ? i didnt understand
Just a reupload
o okay
Probably just a build up to the expansion
I just want it to stop wasting my time with these pointless quests so I can get to the good stuff, most people enjoy it probably did it came out and it was fresh and not overlevled its not even playing a game when it just holds your hand in everything
Odds are tomorrow they'll reupload the 2.0 trailer
Good is subjective homie
I mean... FFXIV is very cumulative. It main seem "pointless" now but it may have ramifications later. Even if it doesn't, the game in general is very narrative driven.
Guys question, i just moved from Atomos to tonberry, and suddenly my game. lags so bad, like it stutter here and there, is there any difference for being in atomos or tonberry? i mean both are from elemntal data center
I was invested in story from the first few quests
is there any way to quickly "try on"? like a hotkey or a plugin
It's a bunch of filler and like 10% engaging gameplay and cool cutscenes
It's not filler
Everything is connected somehow
I've read everything up to this point it's definitely filler
this is filler
And sets up later
It’s not
And learning the lore of the land along the way
FFXIV doesn't have filler except in 2.0
It's giving you a guided experience
It's just not for you man.
I love the raids and duties and community but story quests are driving me crazy
!faq skips
I had to stop doing all the sidequests because I found out that when you reach X level not all quests of X level actually appear. Does anyone know why this happens? It takes a day or two for them to "load in" to an area it seems. So even if I go through an area constantly I'll find quests suddenly appear 8 levels below me.
Tales of Adventure: <EXPACNAME> This item skips the story quests on the character you get it on to the end of the expansion listed. All the main story quests and aether current quests up to that point will be completed. It will not increase your character's job levels. Any MSQ rewards missed can be obtained at the calamity salvager or from the market board except the free fantasia, which is forfeit. You will also receive 10 silver chocobo feathers and 500k gil in platinum pieces.
Tales of Adventure: One <JOBNAME> Journey This item increases a given job to level 70. It will not skip your story progress to level 70. You cannot use this if you've already completed the level 70 job quest for that given job. You will also receive a full set of ilvl400 gear and some accessories as well as 500k gil in platinum pieces.
DISCLAIMER: DO NOT HARASS PEOPLE ABOUT WANTING TO USE/PURCHASE SKIPS
There is no such system.
I wish I did but I'm already halfthrough stormblood
Some sidequests are locked behind MSQ progression
oooooh makes sense
There is no system where they take a day to "load in"
Anyway this isn't #rants
What's a good spot to log out in if you wanna get Reaper ASAP (on Friday) and not get memed on by loading times in Ul'Dah?
Somewhere far off in uldah
okay this is a weird and somewhat desperate question but does anyone happen to know Folken Deathwhisper on diabolos, or anyone from the DisciplesofOblivion FC? (they go by the <<coven>> tag) -- it's nothing creepy, he's just my neighbor on diabolos and i'm wanting to get in touch with him before relo stops to see if he'll trade houses with my partner :\
maybe the inn, since it's instanced? but idk for sure
An inn room at the Quicksand is probably your best bet.
Instanced, so there's no one in it but you.
ul'dah inn room yeah
Now to do naught but wait...
Is the questing or combat gonna change in any big way in endwalker? Like is story still gonna be easy and normal raids too?
Yes
Yes it will be the same
Cause that's by desigb
That's how it's supposed to be
It's made so ANYONE can do it
If referring to old stuff, yes. New stuff? Who knows. Probably.
Story content can be done completely blind
might die once or twice if everyone is new to it but
Yeah, Endwalker normal content isn't gonna be more than "A bit harder than ShB stuff"
tbh a lot of Shadowbringers normal content is starting to get hard
I mean, it's harder compared to like, ARR and HW's normal content
But on the other hand, the content design is also much more streamlined
ARR and HW stuff has just been nerfed and gear crushed over the years
Nah, it wasn't actually "harder" they just overtuned the dungeon mobs in the leveling ones so it'd take longer
Any major changes to gearing or skills? Is there anyway to have your unique build or is everyone still the same?
It's still the same game
The same
Everyone is the same
No
It's not going to become a different game for you
Everyone's still the same. There'll be exactly one mathematically best thing
They ain't gonna make XIV into a different game
I mean, ARR and HW's casual content's difficulty mostly come from damage and stuff
Jobs are just getting new skills with some skills removed
You distinguish yourself by being good at your job.
In ShB, I did notice they pivoted a lot towards the direction of "Telegraphed Mechanic Vomit"
The msq will likely continue to follow the pattern of "enter new zone, do some very filler feeling quests that provide some world building, followed by some sort of trivial difficulty instance content"
Gotta keep that 3 hotbar mindset
But then you need to eat a lot of mechanic to die
Where in ARR you don't eat fruit in Arum Vale and always die
If the world building and story aren't interesting enough to you in hw/SB, don't expect the game to fundamentally change
hw is amazing, sb is shit
Subjective
Lyse irritates me but StB is alright.
I love how people only have two choices: best thing ever, and worst thing ever. There's no in between
It's not hard to be good at your job when it's the same thing over and over... especially when most just follows youtube guides . What is hard is figuring out boss mechanics but that's already done for you
Jice you haven't reached endgame so you're not in a position to speak on that.
That's where you learn how to optimise
Most boss mechanics are stuff you’ve seen before, but slightly tweaked
Being good at your job = optimisation on a per-fight basis
and the skill ceiling for that is high, or endless in some jobs' cases
Unrelated but this is great:

Just incase any of you are wondering how I came to know all this, allow me to explain:
Pretty much all of it comes from tiny nuggets of information I've seen on reddit and twitter, mixed with a thorough analysis of the trailer and various plot points. A lot of it was just...
why are you playing the game if you hate everything? lol
The difference between an average person and a excellent player on a job is very clear to people who get that far
I saw how to do a slam dunk or solve a rubiks cube , doesn't mean I don't need to practice to do it myself

Just saying the game leaves very little room for individual skill and strategy and is just following the same routine and perfecting it
There's PLENTY of room
Again you're not in a position to speak
You've never played an Extreme trial or Savage raid then.
And alot of mechanics the game doesn't tell you
Not in the kits themselves, but how you use them.
and this is no longer suitable for #questions-and-help
head to #general-discussion or #rants
Again, the difference between someone who is at the top of their game and a average player is giant
I played all coils min ill no echo and all extreme trials so far I got a good idea
But anyway, to answer your question, in Endwalker, story difficulty won't change
No not really
Not really
That's not a good comparison cause those are still unbalanced
Do something current
Even at min ilvl
And suffer from being old and first
No one is asking questions anyway
Please just listen to Lyon
i have a question
actually
to indicate i have endwalker it's just checking with the O symbol on mogstation right
Can't really start the same conversation with a new group of people but w/e
Yes
i'm pre-ordering it fairly late 
yessire
okay awesome
O = good u have it!
awesome awesome
how long does it take to beat Binding Coil of Bahamut - Turn 1?
Synced?
Unsynced?
if unsynced it takes like 2 minutes at worst
when will i have to use my registration code for ew?
with duty finder group
During early access at some.point
Oh un.......... queue will be around 30 min to 1.5 year
They make a lodestone post about it
Coils are Savage level content
use the party finder to find a group for them, don't queue via DF
can i do the monster hunter event when i finish sb?
Yes, it's permanent content not an event
do i have to finish post-sb?
unlocks in Kugane at level 70
