Also, does the game like have limited time events or obtainable items? Are they recurring or lost once the event is over?
I already have it on ps4, it just runs pretty bad on my base ps4
Yes, it was a digital download option when I bought it. This was like 2 years ago though.
Seasonal events and some crossovers yes
No no, I just linked the store option for PC
Seasonal items go in mogstation after a year
Seasonal events just go on the cash shop after a year
https://ffxivstorehub.square-enix-games.com/en_US This is the PC version.
Crossover stuff occasionally get rerun
oh so basically just buy EW twice?
I mean, yes.
he dosnet have other expasiosns on pc he dosn't wanna wait itll 7th to play, unless he does get access to endwalker but not others
You need a PC license if you want to play on PC
Cool, so starting late, I’ll still be able to get some older content stuff at a later time then
my clown ass also took work off early next week to play early access, I can still play it on ps4 but i would feel silly with a pc sitting right there that runs it 10x better
If you buy and register Endwalker PC, then you'll be able to play it on PC.
you won't be able to until the 7th
u do have msq done right?
But you do need the individual licenses for every platform.
yeah msq is all done
new SMN Fester is 1s recast. is that enough to double weave it without clipping?
will he be able to play endwalker withouit the other 2 if hes in ARR zone to start with?
could i maybe get those by buying EW as if it was legacy shb for $40.00?
Depends on whether they reduced other cast times as well.
so i have brd, drg, sch as a classes i have fun with and whm is. ok.
which free trial tank i should pick first?
smn will have tons of instants
if you don't have shadowbringers, there's no "early access" basically, that's how it was back at ShB launch too as far as I remember, you get shb access when EW releases officially only
No, I mean for hard casts, not instants.
And the gcd hasn't changed for most things.
well obviously you cant doubleweave with a hard cast
I just know they reduced a lot of hard casts to 1.5s
With the 2.5s gcd
So it would depend on whether they've also changed cds on the spells you want to weave it with
ah ok didn't think so but popped in my head
You asked if you'd be able to double weave with a 1s cd on Fester
do i lose out on stuff if i dont buy the pre order endwalker? and just wait for a new complete collection?
Then yes, probably
pre order bonus @elder pendant
but any standard GCD should work
You'll miss out on the preorder rewards.
are they worth getting?
The xp earring is nice to have.
u will lose earring that gives bouns xp and syncs to your level
to level 80
Not crucial, but useful.
they changed Energy Drain on SCH the same, should be GCD > .7s > Fester > 1s > Fester > .7 > GCD, it'll be somewhat close though if you don't have low ping
is that earring a 1 time claim thing?
It's account-wide
But you won't be able to get anything similar until the next expansion.
cept maybe 7.0 exp when they give a 90 xp earring
so i should grab collectors edition now?
not collector
yeah they do give earrings every preorder, but that's ~2years away
Ugh.... thank you for the advice everyone. According to this page I meet the "requirements" so I'm hoping for the best. Hopefully my support quest with square gets somewhere too
when are they replacing the pre order thing btw
good luck dude hope it works for yeah
The pre-order option goes away on the 7th, for the official launch
@leaden ginkgo the problem isn't that, it's that you don't get SB/ShB until the 7th
make sure u in arr zone though when u log in
although I guess if you don't need to go in a ShB area, it might work?
The collector's edition just has some extra in-game glamour items, but not the earring.
yeah I logged out in one
hes done with his msq though
RIP bozja leveling though
yeah if you don't need to go turn in stuff or whatever it should be fine maybe
this is the one i should get right ? https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/634272/final-fantasy-xiv-endwalker-digital-collectors-edition-pc-download
Pre-order FINAL FANTASY XIV: Endwalker to receive a number of bonuses ahead of its official launch!Experience the climax of the Hydaelyn and Zodiark story, and encounter an even greater calamity than ever before as you travel to the far reaches of Hydaelyn and even to the moon. Journey to the very stars above and join over 22 million players wor...
probably best to start on a 80 class and just do MSQ
you dont have to get collectors for the earring
you don't need collector
if u want mount don't need that one for earring
collector is mount+minion+some other shit iirc
so its this one? https://store.na.square-enix-games.com/en_US/product/634270/final-fantasy-xiv-endwalker-standard-edition-pc-download

yes
yes
PRE-ORDER IN-GAME BONUSES:
Wind-up Palom Minion
Menphina Earring (incl. 30% EXP boost up to level 80)*
Early Access to Endwalker**
says right on the page
Yo my friend logged on my server (diff home world) they can play EW MSQ there fine right?
Maybe it works differently for cross-progression/platform characters
, worst case i play on ps4
you could grind Bozja on PS4 then switch back for MSQ too if you really want to play RPR/SGE
id still need the starter edition right to use this?
you can change worlds on login screen by right click in case it's crowded
this is a great idea actually!
if u don't have it on pc yes
because bozja is whatever. This is assuming I can go to EW zones though.
yeah im still doing trial
then yea fyi u prob won't be able to log in as "free trail" tomorrow so
also thank you to this channel for getting me through the base game through Shb since almost two years ago
what do you mean?
so 3456 is "early access" and ppl who preordered EW should get SB+SB access on the 7th?
Thats such a weird decision
paid player are prioritized in queue
Login queues will be long and subbed players get priority
they give proity to paid plaers and early access begins tomorrow so u will either have a very long que time or unable to log in compelte
oh i see its ok i just dont want to miss out on the exp ring stuff
this code doesnt expire right?
The pre-order code expires March 31
That's when they'll remove the "enter pre-order code" button on mogstation
The main EW code doesn't expire
got it so ill get the starter edition + the endwalker standard is that correct?
Yes
yeah
means the tank better be doing his job
aggro, but seems weird and pointless lol
for fun cus that no way draw aggro from tank
SMN tanking intensifies
Bahamut is a bigger perceived threat than any tank I guess
As it should be.
it might just be some targetting stuff so Bahamut targets the right thing with his casts
btw guys, does the maintanence really is until 3 december? today i had my day off... well i am having tomorrow too but meh
Yes
😦
No early
It lasts another 17 or so hours
Announced way in advance
oh nice, so it will be in the morning i guess
Servers are scheduled to come back up at 4 am est
anyway thx

oops xD
How much money /hr are you guys able to make? or ffxiv doesn't work that way?
in real life?
varies a lot with where we are in a patch, like as crafter when a new savage raid tier drops with the new crafted gear you can make a lot or whenever a new glam came out but you cant rly say xxx/hr today you could have sold stuff in the millions tomorrow nothing
ahhh I wanna play the game why are servers down ;_;
inject endwalker directly into the veins and relaunch servers yoshiP
will early access save transfer over to the main game after the early access is done, or is early access only for testing
It's for all intents and purposes the full release
early access is full game
gothcam tanks
You will keep everything
but early
Hey guys it's my first time on ff14 and I was wondering what early access means in this game.
Do people with early access get the chance to play the story earlier than anyone else?
don't have a job in ff14 tbh so wouldnt know, U can make a few 100k easily by just playing the game and doing duty finder stuff I guess, gathering stuff, it depends. I did arbitrage trading via Universalis the other day and made 50k profit per item I bought and sold which basically costs no time except to wait for it to sell. If u have enough gil in the bank to invest and know which products to look for ur hourly earnings can probably get up to the millions
what is the livestream from ffxiv jp youtube channel? is there any translation?
Early access means the people that preordered can start playing the EW content before the official release.
When can they start playing then? I prepurchased it but I assumed the release date would be the same as everyone else?
Oh wow so I need to avoid everything as soon as servers are up xD don't wanna get spoiled as I am only in 5.2
December 7th
Tomorrow for early access
asap server are up tomorrow if you have early access
Ohh ok so this maintenance is merely updating the game on the background? or how does it work?
I see
No it's p much the full release
The rest of the people have to wait a few days then?
no
Ur just locked out of msq if u don't own ew
all can play tomorrow
Ah right
Maintenance is updating to 6.0. For everyone, not just the early access people. So even if you don't have EW, you get the job changes and other system changes.
even free trial if they can somehow get into the queue
Oh they won't
quick logic check - 'early access' actually means fuck all, doesn't it?
like, it's just a marketing trick to excuse the game being weird on launch?
are the early access codes out yet? square enix acc only shows endwalker code
Will I still be able to install the game with servers down?
do i miss out on anything if i dont participate in early access?
content based then no
The codes were out since they announced Endwalker, I think it's too late now
I literally mealprepped today for the coming few days so I can go ham when EW gets released lmao
what do the queues usually look like on day 1?
no way to predict since conditions are different
99999
probably long
xD
Someone said yesterday to expect 1-2hours queues
I dunno I feel like the servers aren't that big tbh, i see alot of the same people in the game all the time
can't speak for ff14, but I tried WoW Classic when it was new and queues were like 3+ hours
Like people u see afking in town u meet in the outside world as well
there's basically no basis for 1-2hours, or 10mins, or 10hours
so I assume this'll be similar
Unrelated question to everything about endwalker
But its important
Is there a housing item that is just, an orb
I would like to ponder something in my house
I'll jump on at 9am sharp 👀
oh so the code i redeemed like 4 months ago was the preorder code?
Wakin up at 2.44 exactly
OH that was not obvious at first glance LOL
So, quick question here... Will the reworks, changes and everything be in by the early access? Like the SMN reworks? Or will that be loaded in on launch day?
yes
yes
early access yes
6.0 drops tomorrow
Effectively
Endwalker starts tomorrow
the "official" release is just a formality
Ohhhhboiiii, "sorry Stormblood-patch-msq chan, I need a lil' time..."
Does anyone know how many players there usually are per server?
at least 1
facts
its supersmall
Despite the fact I've always bought off PSN, I can never remember... Does the new client download before or end of maintenance? I'm sure it used to be before
i see here in an article it supports up to 750 players per world server
So that is tiny compared to other mmos
so reaper will be aviable on early access right?
its 18k per datacenter
or 18k per region even
So ur queue will never be above 750 players, which seems like peanuts, as long as the servers hold the simultaneous login there is no need to worry about not getting in the game, i would assume
750 hahahahahahahahahahah
that is the login server how many can login at once
yea sure
Does anyone have the Shadowbringers screenshots
not how many can be ingame at once
I've seen 4000 back at the start of StB
ive seen higher on reddit though?
I think I saw 14k week one Shadowbringers
maybe they upgraded it over time all the forumposts are pretty old
they said stop the queue when it passing 17000
'This is directly from the Sticky on this forum from Yoshi-P: http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...s-Restrictions
Each FINAL FANTASY XIV: A Realm Reborn World server has been designed to support a maximum of 5,000 concurrent connections. This is not the maximum number of characters which can be created on a World, however, but the maximum number of characters which can be logged into that World simultaneously. When more than 5,000 characters log into a World at once, there is a higher risk of server crashes and login errors. The restoration of crashed servers is usually followed by a rush of players attempting to log back in, which, in turn, puts a strain on our lobby server, and can ultimately have an adverse affect on all of the Worlds.'
Pre- EU data split was awful
this is maybe old info though idk
...
i wonder how the summoner job quests changed after the rework
that is 2013 post
link doesn't work btw
that is EXTREMELY old information
wont be able to check b/c im already lvled
and is honestly not relevant in 2021
yes i can't find any newer in my quick google search
but nobody here seems to know an answer
ng+
You're not going to get any population numbers
because we don't have that information
that is accurate anyway
it's not that crazy of a question a day before an expansion launch is it
We don't work for square
Neither do I but I also have the ability to look up info and we have quite a bit of people here
any word on when predownloads are gonna be available?
sometime in the afternoon for JP
4am berlin time ;)
Around that
I never understood where to read enemies next move. Can some show me exactly how to read upcoming moves with a screenshot or specifically where to look?
By default it's next to the health bar of the target
Hey people, do I need to buy a separate license/account to play ffxiv on a macOS, if my original account is windows? Or can I play on my old account on both? also 2nd question, does ffxiv run on M1 macs? I got m1 air
so servers down for two days?
one
damn
24h total
10 hours from now ?
https://www.watchisup.com/countdown/videogames/ffxiv-endwalker-early-access-timer-2021-12-03-00-00-1
he asks for the pre load time, not when early access start
ah soz i didn't see the original questions, just wanted to share the timer
You can just do !expansion here to have the bot tell you btw
Because if so that suuuuuucks
Afternoon JP time, 10pm PST
!expansion
cool
just do it in #kupo-bot-spam in the future as to not spam the channel
Is it maintenance all day?! I still havnt finished shadowbringers
yes, all day
maint for an expac is 24hrs.
Oh, i’ll be behind then :(
Can we please get some precise time for Preload?
no
we have no precise time
I reaaally hope it's before 4am
3 hours prior to official end time
Are there any Discord Mods here?
Yoshi-P said it would be sometime in the afternoon for JP
that's all we have
no specific hour
they wouldn't know any more info either
this isn't an official discord server of the game
they know as much as everyone else does
how many characters do people usually make?
1
they won't @ anyone
lol... DOT IT 🙂
people will be spamming it in #general-discussion anyway
when you can start downloading the patch
ah
I may nerd to check some options...
i still cant put ew code in mogstation
Hmmm
It remains connected to the internet in rest mode
I'll just hope for the best
so when do we download endwalker?
ah ok i though u can today after maint

we don't know
afternoon JP time is all we have to go by

did they translate the livestream of ff14?
Do we know what time the maintenance will end?
Do we only get the one free fantasia at the end of ARR?
Yes
!expansion
Okay ty
Oh. damn. Of course I'm off today and work tomorrow.
Can’t dl yet
ok ty
is the early access code separate from the actual code to redeem endwalker?
when it comes out I mean
Yes
When I buy complete edition do I get endwalker too? That’s the new expansion right
The preorder code is your early access code
Or do you have to buy it separately
Not currently. Wait until after launch when they update the complete edition
When they update the complete edition yes. If you see it listed somewhere currently, it's not updated to include EW yet.
Ok cool thanks
Launch being december 7th
Gotcha
how big is ew tho
Is “gods of eld” a current quest?
did they say what time servers will be up today?
No one knows
According to #translations-and-liveletters
10 gig
gods of eld is the starting quest for the warring triad quest line/ravana and bismarck exs
kk
its the one that unlocks the warring triad in HW
Even the maintenance/server teams don’t know.
gotcha, thanks
Is it possible to gift a fantasia to someone? Like I buy it but they get it?
Schedule says 1am PT, but could be delayed
!expansion
“Could be delayed”
If it’s delayed I cry
The !maint doesn't work in this channel, and even then it's only a planned time and not set in stone
at 9am EU time
yah just buy it as a gift on mogstation and give them the code
guys is the game downable now?
No
where?
We’ve had 24 hour maintenance go to 36 hours before
Its server work, never EXPECT it to be done on time
when?
i have starter edition stormblood and pre ordered EW ......when EW drops ill be downloading shadow and EW ?
A few years back, but it has happened
yes
Yes and no. You already have Shadowbringers downloaded
you will get shadowbringers on the 7th
You just don’t have access
@thorn thicket and do i get a cd key for that ?
No clue
I’ve always been up to date on 14 in terms of expansions, not sure how catch-up on releases works
cause on mogstation theres no like circle on shawdow maybe when EW drops!!!!who knows
Registering the main EW key will register the SB and ShB expansions automatically
Major patches, so ofc an expansion, is 24hours
Minimum
where exactly can i find the class balance update for 6.0?
Anyone know if there's any new servers coming anytime soon?
job guides
There isn't a "balance" update
I was looking at the changes for rdm and I think I understand most of them, but what is a manafication stack?
Oceania data center in 2022
oh perfect i was missing this info in the patch notes thanks
no, earliest possible time for new servers will be 6.1 with the OCE datacenter release
You have multiple stacks of manafication, each gcd you while they're up uses up a stack for the buff
!faq manafication
Wait... we only got 3 million registered players with all the streamer followers coming in with Asmon, Soda, and the rest?
!action manafication
Doubles current Black Mana and White Mana levels.
Additional Effect: Resets Corps-a-corps, Displacement, and Engagement recast timers
Additional Effect: Increases magic damage dealt by 5%
Duration: 10s All combos are canceled upon execution of Manafication.
@winter jetty instad of 5% dmg for 10s,you get 5% dmg on 6 gcds
so effect is similar but less of a time restricting
I'm pulling up the old details to explain how it's changing
Ah
Most jobs are getting these types of changes
Warrior for example
Didn’t see the comment asking about the buff.
Oh yeah, and 6 gcds is technically longer so you can get manafication for the full new finisher combo,
3 melees, verflare/Holy, scorch and the new finisher
Current manafication only lasts just long enough for scorch
looks pretty nice
Flare/Holy and scorch are now aoes
So the finishers now slot into your aoe combo too
Veraero/thunder ii/iii will also be replaced with flare/Holy so it'll be very hotbar efficient
And impact will be replaced with scorch and the finisher
for war's nascent flash, is it still healing per enemy hit or is it one heal per skill?
per enemy, but flat rate
at what time do the servers come back on?
!maint in #kupo-bot-spam
will our key binds deleted?
No
k
maybe
So I’m aware races stats are useless but out of the 5 attributes dex, mind Vit, int and str which boosts damage of thaumaturge and in what order
In order
int
No like second after int
is the only main stat thm/blm cares about
with vit slightly below but it doesn't matter
Does dex or str not affect it then?
nope
Jobs only use 1 main stat
because the amount of stat you get from racial stats is insignificant to what you get on gear
Nothing else
vit would be 2nd since its hp but gear with higher int has higher vit
No I know but I’m curious
As in max dps for race would be race with 23 int right? Or would other factors help even if insignificant
The difference is a single digit level differrnce
anyone know the pieces of the glam on left?
I like digits :))
By endgame you have hundreds of points into your main stat
Chest piece is from pagos iirc and like 10 other reskins
It literally does not matter
You're not going to notice the difference in racial stats at end-game
I know
2-3 points of int is very much a single drop in an ocean
You won't see any difference with stat tiering
it's just flavour
I’m finding out for research purposes not for dps or stuff like that
whats the research?
🤡
Not even the most hardcore of hardcore raiders cares about starting race
there's no research to be had.
Just lie and tell him they all get flattened by the level curve
it has no effect on stats at endgame, full stop
.
Lol I’ll try
the real question is that will he last through the story

"They're a 2.0 remnant and all end up the same from levelling up"
Probably not lol
Right so tell him stats are fake and be a loli
One or the other
Or both
Lalafells have the biggest starting int iirc
Well, not like they can start today anyways lol
Or tomorrow
Is he the type to maximize the shit out of everything?
Servers will be way too packed for new character creation
Ik 😭
How much is teleport gonna start costing now anyway
Unknown
Why does JP communities go against Ultimate contents?
Tell him it's gonna suck for him lol
Like 10-20k? lol
You can't optimize till you're level 30
... They don't?
Did the same thing with other moms like eso lol
? they don't
Legit worlds first ultimates are tied
No idea, I heard diff story.
He's not gonna last
One eu, one na, one jp
I can tell
What’s the biggest change people are gonna be mad about going off the patch notes?
wait teleporting to the moon is actually gonna cost a moon distance's worth of gil? that's hilarious
Around 1k-1.2k from what we saw
Jp community just doesn't have static groups that stay together between fights
(not that I'm there yet)
Just to confirm - I preordered, so starting tomorrow, i can play until the 7th, then i need to enter the expac code to continue playing?
That’s not astronomical
Oh ok so they don't wish to make that a norm requirement in FFXIV.
They don't have any goal or agenda
because i can't find anywhere to put in my endwalker code 🤔
JPs whole gaming culture is different
Yeah JP communities work schedules are all over the places.
They just treat Raiding groups differently
Different cultures is all
While I’m here, is there an auto target for aoe stuff like flare? Aka Will it auto attack another target if the first one dies mid cast ? It’s annoying.
No
Well generallu if thr target dies the spell fails
Sucks for aoe when you’re fighting 8-10 things at once
When can I activate my code?
Pick the one with the most HP
Platform?
7th i think Sarphee, no one replied to me so i guess no one knows?
Where are you trying to play the game
Just hopes it’s more playable on my ps5 after the update. My pc runs it better either way
Square Enix launcher, Steam, Playstayion?
PC, SE launcher, i preordered endwalker so i assume I don't need to input the code for early access, just on the 7th to continue playing once it's fully released.
because on mogstation it's showing a circle under endwalker early access, but there's no way to register the full code yet
sorry i am sure this has been asked before, but when will servers go back online?
so long as you've applied the pre-order to your account you're fine for early access
the full expansion code will be sent later
You're registered Joshua
Ok sweet thank you, yeah I received the code like 2 weeks ago, so i was unsure
use !maint in #kupo-bot-spam
Was telling me how to redeem it, but there was no way to do so
Wait do I have to check for a code on Playstation too?
no
playstation doesn't deal with codes at all
I pre ordered the Standard Endwalker then cancelled it, and bought the Collectors Edition but I still have Early Access from the previous order - do you know if any problems will arise from this?
So much easier than to eeal with Square Enix Branded Bullshit lol
no, you're fine
@lost echo 9 hours
Thanks. Also, we don't get our collectors edition items until the 7th?
Are predownloads up?
correct, wont get CE items until you put in the expac code
Oh ok nvm, maint bot says 14 hours
I thought servers were gonna be up at 3am uk time
No because its not afternoon yet in JP
Is that to my question?
ye
Ah I see, so is that the same for everyone?
yes
Thanks
Just wondered because I got another code for Early Access but I can't use it of course
sometime in like 10hrs
Well what time is the afternoon
maybe slightly longer since "afternoon" covers a decent time range
*15
Can you install the game with servers down?
My SSD Crashed and I have to reinstall before tomorrow
Ah so it should be around 10 AM for me
All right, all clear.
Oh and by the way
Fuck AM and PM
24 hours clock all the way
does the launcher update automatically, when it's available? can't find an option for that and I think I've had to update manually a few times in the past
What chat channels tend to be unsafe on expansion release? I'm gonna disable linkshells, yells and shouts for sure, should I nuke party chat too or do people not tend to spoil in dungeons/trials?
In my experience I’ve usually had to manually refresh it to start downloading the update
alrighty, thanks
Yell/shout to be safe but I’ve not had any spoilers in-game for any expansion launch.
If you're giga paranoid about spoilers, disable all chats except party and alliance
people usually dont spoiler in party chat so you should fine
And even if people do drop spoilers, I wouldnt be surprised if they get vote kicked
So a red "x" icon shows up beside one of my pieces in my glam plate, what does that mean?
also I assume it would get punished if it gets reported
Wrong job or gender, basically it wont work on that piece when you apply plate to gear
Reporting people is a pain, vote kick and a 30min queue ban is enough
when normal mode for raid drops, you can only get 1 coffer per fight each week right?
What time is EW out tomorrow?
!maint in #kupo-bot-spam
It doesn't work in here

That's when its coming out
The maint command is disabled in here
yeah
For very obvious reasons
Q: Anyone been through one of these 24hr maintenance's before? could it end early?
absolutely
it could very well end late too
It will end on time
hope for the best, expect the worst
・6.0パッチはきっちり時間通りに開く
Patch 6.0 Maintenance will not end early and will end exactly as scheduled.

my experience from maintenance, even though I never experienced a long one in FFXIV
An expansion is never late, nor is it early. It arrives precisely when it means to
alright. but it could still end late. so.
It will end exactly on time
thank you for your wisdom sensei
Unless something catastrophic happens
you mean like,, a calamity?
There's always the possibility of issues arising so you never know
They only had to ever push back major maintenance once
Which is when they actually compensated people for sub Time
considering the lack of semi conductors and the inability to increase the number of worlds it could cause issues
oh fuck you know what

I shoud've logged out on siren
lower queue
that would actually lower queues right? compared to server like gilgamesh, since fewer people would be logging on
i'm sure no one will be trying to log in at 1am, right?
The login queue is the same per DC
hahaha
if only
oh do you not log into the world but the dc itself?
Yes
what's DC?
disconnect or data center
Data centre
ahh
data center in the context
bri'ish moment
the "T" is timed to serve, it wasn't tea time
So the xp reset will be in effect after servers go up right? Just finished the patch notes
I logged out in Limsa LMAOOO
yep. everything will be at 0 exp but the same level
ok
Question
Does the email I got about using the full code for Endwalker early access contain that code or do I need to go find my original pre-order email? Or did using the code I got from pre-ordering Endwalker and getting the earrings/minion count and I don't need another code?
You'll get a new e-mail most likely
if you login to the store using a store account, you can check that, it'll get updated with the 2nd code
hey which tanks are you guys planning to level first?
where do you put early access code if you bought on steam into mogstation
!faq mogstation
more clearly, only one of the codes works for now you need to wait to use the other until endwalker is out
Yes
nice okay ty
You should receive your 2nd code now
Anyone knows if ew will be downloadable before maintenance ends, on ps4? Or do i have to load it after and then join the queue?
Preload
You won't be able to do shb content just yet, sadly
Nice, thx
SHB and STB as part of EW are gonna go out on the 7th, as part of the official release
ohh okay, ty
the answer is somewhere up in the air
Historically you can play the expansions you don't own during EA
Is early access starting at 1 am pst or at reset time
yeah, I got SB with ShB EA
!expansion
In that time
If you didn't pre-order Endwalker, can you still play pre-endwalker content starting tomorrow? Or do you have to wait until launch of EW?
you can still play up to whatever you own
You can. If you own it
Okay, ty
You just need EW for either the new jobs or EW MSQ
You also need to own the base game to even get in tomorrow
Whats AF5 gear?
90 job gear
Af5 is the 90 job gear
when does EW go live?
Ohh
AF - Artifact
5 - 5th set
!maint in #kupo-bot-spam
So job gear gonna be enough for the entire msq?
Definitely PLD
We don't know how it's obtained
Only for the 89-90
thanks ❤️
You won't be getting job gear until level 89
Cryplurkers will be enough till like 85 and then you can sorta half ass it till 89 and have job gear for the last trial no?
And you can't equip it til level 90
And you still need accessories
Still it'll mean the level 89 dungeon won't slap as hard at least
And the capstone 90 dungeon at the end
do same buffs stack in this game? like say you have two ASTs in the party and they both cast divination, or do they just overwrite each other
Cards don't stack
Apparenrly you can wear them at level 89
same buffs don't stack unless otherwise said
But then they get tuned at 90
If it's the same damage increasing effect they usually don't stack
According to the live translations
following that up Ranged DPS damage reductions also don't stack
Regens etc typically stack
WHM regens stack

AST regens sometimes don't it's weird
I see, thank you for clarifying
Though might after maint
AST's Diurnal Sect regen effect won't stack with WHM's Regen but two WHM using Regen does stack
the reason 2 diurnal AST regens dont stack is because ast has 2 sects
Oh
but that will probably change with the EW changes
If they don't CBU3 the hell you smoking
AF5 gear will have lvl 89 stats.
The moment you hit 90, your job gear will "sync up" to 90 so it will last you longer and can be used for the final trial.
is there no preload for the expansion or is that after the maintenance
its later on
Preload available later
Said it would be sometime afternoon for JP
Is it true that yoshi-p said there would be new ultimate weapons for uwu, tea and ucob in the stream today?
no
Sorry to disturb u guys but got a question, is this character vanilla? I've trying my best to copy it but I simply can't, not even close. Ty.
No
the best they said is "they're looking into it"
Modded eyes
Modded horns and scales
Alright, I figured as much. Thanks o/
I see 😦 thanks
hello, kinda a new player here... is shadowbringer gone or it will be in endwalker dlc? currently playing on steam
SB and ShB will bundle with EW on the 7th when EW officially launches
But Endwalker will include all expansions
i see, i was wondering why it only have endlwaker dlc in my steam client. anw thanks for answering my question
Because steam only gives you the keys
FFXIV does everything from the launcher and mogstation
that includes expansion management
Hi, my acc is in JP so i have to buy a jp version of the EW. I preordered it on amazon but it says that the code will only come on december 7th, despite the early access if you preorder? Will they send me the code early or should I just cancel it.
how exactly does early access work
As far as I'm aware Amazon wasn't participating in the pre-order stuff
why would you need to wait... on a digital code
Cus amazon doesn't wanna charge me until release date
...dont get it from amazon then
Oh so i don't get early access if i preorder on amazon?
Amazon doesn't charge that extra tax of 600 yen kek
no because they dont resell
You get the early access code upon checking out, and the full code during Early Access
We still aren't able to enter the actual code for the game either. And most will get the code send around the 7th. Early access code isn't the same as the code for the actual game
guys i dont understand what the spoiler that they say be aware some1 can explain with few words?
This is via the SE store
greenmangaming, steam, or just sqenix are actual resellers
GMG and Humble, Steam, and PSN all deliver both codes on purchase
gmg and sqenix have non-steam codes
Okay i'll cancel it and just eat up the 600 yen tax i guess
so like, tomorrow ill get an email with the code or something? and then ill be on a seperate server to everyone else?
no early access is the same servers as full
It's this way due to the physical preorders from before Endwalker
So that physical didn't have to wait to be able to play
wait am i missing something here, isnt early access like getting EW content before everyone else
You'll most likely receive the code in a couple of days. If you entered early access in mog station and not the follow up code for the game before the 7th, you'll loose access to the game until you enter the second code that you haven't received yet
Mostly, yes.
i bought EW key from GMG a while ago, got the pre-order bonus
so now do i just wait for an email from GMG
yes that's your early access key
I don't know how GMG works but I believe you should have gotten both keys unless GMG does it the SE store way
If you have the pre order bonus, it means you put in the early access code. Now you have to wait like everyone else for the next code and put that in before the 7th. It's not yet available
Your pre-order code is for EA
Which servers could I try to join a 2SLGBTQ+ friendly guild? In NA server
yes
There’s a server on Omega with a guild literally called ‘LGBT’ , Omega is European server tho
Oh thank you! I forgot to mention I am looking for an NA group
!faq communityfinder
There's one on Lamia too. Some of them are my apartment neighbors. I don't know anything about them beyond that though.
take a look around there, lgbt+ friendly groups usually mention it in their search infos
Oh great, thank you!
There's an FC on Adamantoise who's FC tag is TRANS that I see around every so often
🅱️ased LGBTQ Fcs
w-wao 
but ye look around on the communityfinder and im sure you'll find something
okok thank yall so much!!
anyone know when/if there's gonna be a preload for the patch?
Expected later today, before maintenance ends at least, but no time set in stone
ah okay
They said afternoon in Japan on the recent stream
so, once we all get the second EW code and enter it, do we just get access to the endwalker area/story and stuff?
is there a countdown timer for when early access starts?
Yes, that will be the main EW code, which you will need registered after early access ends
It let's you keep access to them
If you don't enter the second code you'll lose all Endwalker access on the 10th
!maint or !expansion in #kupo-bot-spam
why tho
The early access code only applies to early access. It doesn't grant you the expansion proper
Especially since you don't actually pay for early access as you could just get the code then cancel the order
Technically
You do?
isnt early access just being able to play EW before everyone else
so why would you lose all access to EW if you dont register the code before the 10th
Yes, until the 10th
Yes, it unlocks EW temporarily, for the EA period
Cause yoy got early access
Which ends on the 10th
Just not the expansion code itself
Extra leyway
so in summary: first key we got is for early access, once EA is happening, we'll get second code to access full endwalker after EA?
Yes
where do you see EA code?
They make a lodestone post about it when it's available to enter
seems unnecessarily complicated but ok
ohh you mean sites like G2A were ripping them off
how long does a server transfer take?
Physical preorders get EA too, so they need a EA code to play since their physical copy wont arive until later
Transfer is usually instant or very quick
Doesnt really make sense but ok
Put your code in and it just doesnt work until the expanison goes live, no real reason for 2 codes
the full expansion code would come with the physical copy of the game
therefore if you pre-ordered a physical copy, and for w/e reason your physical copy got delayed
aight thanks
anyways this is irrelevant now since EW is completely digital its just a relic of an old system
when can we preload the thing?
you wouldn't have access to the game until you got your physical copy (assuming it for some reason was delayed beyond the grace period)
since im not actually done msq yet (lol), the feature id like most would be the datacenter visit (but it wont be happening at release so)
japan afternoon TBA
^ all we know
what time is in japan now
Yeah most people dont really buy physical anymore as I understand it
google is your friend
you literally cant order physical CDs anymore
the only physical stuff you can get is the collectors
Well most computers arent even built with disc drives, everythings on USB
wait, japan afternoon is in, like 12 hours. Thats when the game will be released already no?
will we be able to download 6.0 during the maintenance period?
Will I have to login in order to download the EW update (whenever they let us download it)?
yes
Alright
hey, is the "early access code" the same as the code i already posted into the mogstation to get my earring some months ago?
Yes
okay thanks ❤️
You should have it marked on your account status
yeah got it like this! i am sooo hyped
I wonder what will replace the Coffee Biscuit mafia
The devs already said that they don't want anything like that again.
Due to the inflation it indirectly causes over time.
so what is the point of Sage having two almost identical AoE spells? I see that Phlegma is on a cooldown and has double the potency, but it's a bit strange that other than their potencies and recasts there's basically no difference
this is a change for tanks
Activating defensive buffs at optimal times will yield more significant benefits.
what would optimal times include?
read their short tank cooldowns, they have new 4s effects
(except for DRK because devs went ha ha fuck you)
ooo ok
Yeah, I don't know what they were doing with DRK.
Carve & Spit now shares a cooldown with Abyssal Drain for... reasons?
you can explain it by the fact that DRK already kinda had it with TBN
oh wow a lot of abilities were updated, thats great
job guide
job guide
tyy
On the bright side, it's no longer tied to your HP.
So you can use it off-cooldown without losing any potency if you eat a tankbuster.
spirits within turns into aoe at 86
Yeah, but it's still significantly weaker than it was pre-changes, but that might be mitigated by the stat squish.
i wouldnt say significantly
it's 300 potency for first target
the old one was 370 potency
plus the potencies are being adjusted downwards
a lot of damage abilities got nerfed, why is that
so it is slightly slightly weaker for single target, but now does half damage for everything around the target
Stat squish to avoid server overload and the inflation of values to ludicrous levels.
not a nerf
not a squish
talking about this
change so physical and magical damage formulas use the same weapon damage
when would you pop seraph as sch
the potency changes are not necessarily nerfs
because the damage formula is changing
Thank u 
they used to be better than edge at 2 targets, now they're only better at 3 targets
why? because fuck DRK
judgment on potency numbers should tbh be held until people can get in game and sus out the actual changes to the formula
(c) the devs
The DRK nerfs just feel weird.
Since they were already recognized as the jankiest tank.
And now they're getting more jank stapled on.
which abilities, i'm not seeing anything new there
ok
bloodwhetting is upgraded raw intuitition
actually not up to there yet lol
can we play EW when maintance ends
Yes, if you registered the pre-order/early access code
i did months ago
(and heart of corundum is upgraded heart of stone; holy sheltron is upgraded sheltron)
that's raw intuition
are crafters/gatherer getting new skills
Yes
Ah, right.
my hotbars full need to put it on 4th then
no
I got it confused with Enhanced Nascent Flash at the same level.
Has Preload Started?
I have the game already installed on ps5, do I need to update the app? Or as soon as the maintenance ends, I can start playin?
2 charges to life surge, based
well both skills got the same thing
It's just that Raw Intuition is self-focused while Nascent Flash is for healing teammates.
is it possible to enter the code right now or should i active it when maintenance ends?

You can enter it now
i'm very happy they are increasing the range of ranged abilities
ranged abilities and LB will no longer break combos
do it now if you w ant pre-order bonuses
i see thanks
i thought mogstation was down?
If someone purchases EW right now he can still gain early access right?
Mogstation is up for me
Ik I asked this earlier but my friend forgot about it 😛
Maybe certain parts of it down. I don't know about the pre-order code button because I already entered mine so it's gone anyway
it worked thanks guys
