No, seriously
not like they made it the posterboy or anything
Yes
Do you like having multiple hot bars filled up?
Can you main paladin as you first character? I will play solo mainly. Have never played before.
yeah
Starts as Gladiator
All jobs are viable so yes
I play DRK so yes, FYI I quit playing PLD at 50, then switched to DRK because I was bored AF, but now I wanna try again.
Then play it. Worst case, you don’t like it and go back
Yeah, I quit at ARR PLD, which I heard was extremely boring
Currently running as the couch spud class and might upgrade to couch potato after finishing the Que raid
The 2002 wipe might happen though
I plan on tanking down the road but enjoy the class type.
It’ll clear all solo instances, raids, etc
essentially yes
More or less
Sage starts at 70 right?
Where do you start the quest at?
Rp city
Thank you. That’s what I will start.
Which is? :/
!faq ewjobs

Ty
I just logged in for the first time since early access... What happened to the aether compass?
Duty > collection
Where is the PLD Arms? I cant find it
First weapon slot
no on the MB
Yes
I see, thanks!
there's only GLD
First weapon slot
gld = pld
did they make level cap dungeons give real exp? I've noticed people in PF looking to do level cap dungeons for levevlling
No, they don’t know what they’re doing
Probably just looking to get it done
Wait what? then why is my Job abbreviation GLA and not PLD? OOHHHHHHH the job crystal thats why
Idk if this belongs here or not, but is there anything that can be done about the horrendous shimmering/flickering on textures/models? Been messing with it for days now and making me wanna rip my hair out, it's nearly unbearable.
NVM I was a dumbass
Save your stone in your gear set
Check graphic card drivers, adjust settings and see if it helps
What is the popup that free trial accounts get when they're kicked/lowered for being a free account?
see, I'd have thought that but they've been explicitly labelled "levelling spam"
Drivers up to date, have tried tons of different settings both in game and in nvidia control haven't found anything that works yet.
I am stuck at "The Light of Inspiration" in Tempest at the NPC Grenoldt who requires doing the jobquest in Crystarium which i already did. But i get told i have to do that quest to progress the main story. Is this seriously bugged? Im on Tank/Paladin Level 81
did you do all of them?
Did you do ALL of them
it's a series of quests
i do not remember skipping any? and i dont get another jobquest shown below main story line either
Man I really did not leave any gear for my PLD to use...
Uhhhhhhhhh I have no idea how to fix my situation
I'm not sure the role quests show below msq
!faq rolequests
What are Role Quests?
Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.
At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.
I can't find where I left off!
No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.
Tank Role Quests
Healer Role Quests
Physical DPS Role Quests
Magical DPS Role Quests
search your completed quest log for "To Have Loved and Lost"
that is the end of the tank quests chain
is rpr a selfish dps or raid dps
it's got a fairly strong raid buff.
what raid buff does rpr has
Question; What do I do now that I have basically no good PLD Gear? I want to level PLD to play it in EW, but what would be a good first step?
i found the issue.. thx. i thought they get shown once new ones are ready
it's somewhere between DRG and SAM as far as I can tell, on a spectrum from "hope this helps to "gimme dem buffs"
Actually I can just buy some Level 50 PLD Gear
@cursive abyss your first step is to probably get poetic gear / your job quest gear you get at 50.
i've just finished potd floor 40, but when i tried to proceed next level it says i don't meet the minimum requirement. what should i do?
oof
need to repeat floors until my weapon/armor gets buffed?
yeah, there's minimum aetherpool reqs
how do i repeat floors?
reset means i have to repeat from floor 1?
Luckily, seems I had the brains to store that away! Phew!
cant simply choose which floor to go?
file 2 doesn't restart weapon and armor?
if its level 50 go to calamity person and rebuy the job gear
your weapon/armor progress doesn't reset
ooh
it's not related to the save files
no, your aether weapon / armor is the internal lvling system for deep dungeons
so if i use file 2, upgrade weapon & armor, then i can go back to file 1 to continue floor 41?
yes
i see thanks
should i level up my actual job first? my MCH is still level 32
the rule says there's a max gear limit depending on job level
no the lvling inside is also independent
oh ok
Thats in....Mor Dona, right?
thanks!
doing potd will increase your outside lvl
calamity salvagers are in ever 3 of the main cities. I know limsa is on upper decks. Take the left or closest tele crystal is culinarians guild I believe
they allow you to buy job gear you threw away bc its useless vs tome gear or if you want glam
when do you get trusts
71 ( first ShB dungeon)
Where are the reaper quests? I unlocked the job and I’m 80 but I missed all of them so far
OK, what do you reccomend I do first? get the Lvl 50 Tomestone gear since Im 55?
Im rusty on how to progress gear since I just came back from waiting for EW for months
anyone has a clue what is currently the time limit before timeout?
did they change how trust works? they all level 90 for me now
tomestone gear will be bis until current expac
does food and squadron manual affect leveling in potd?
no
I assume you mean afk times, 30 mins
i won't be able to buy augmented crypt armor until i finish 6.0 right?
Gotcha, thank you so much!
5
not 6.0 since that's endwalker
my "assassinate" skill seems to be buggy. when I try to drag it into my hotbar it appears as the dream within a dream skill.
its not bugged
Anyone already received their EW full game code?
oh perfect okay thank you
assassinate upgrades via trait into dream within a dream now
Ass = DwD
If you bought it via steam you should have it. cant speak otherwise
i bought it thru SE store
Was walking around Limsa and saw what looked like purple tear in reality... anyone know what that's about?
probably reaper's teleport skill
rpr
@twilit arch oh so assassinate is no longer a follow up? I take it you start off with assassinate and that eventually upgrades into dream within a dream now?
How's it work?
what time is the daily reset? specifically on daily roulette
yeah
!daily
press button, portal go zoomies. press again go back
@twilit archalright thanks
thanks!
or something to that effect
I should leave my character in inn to make the q better ?
dont think thatll affect anything. Its based on logins and availability. Not location
Please tell me there is aaway to get something back from expery delivery
I heard new summoner is similar to machinist. Is there any truth to that?
mch does not summon primals.
like there isnt much rng in the rotation or something?
lemme find something for u
have to do whatever content that item came from to get it back
I hope this helps
Anyone find any 6.0 crafting macro sites?
it was an ultimate weapon
thanks
im uninstalling the game its been real
That's very unfortunate
wait... why did you have an ultimate weapon in your inventory....
Not sure about SE store but they let me bought EW as guest not sure how i can get it thru SE store if i don't have an account when i bought EW.
If I message support think there will be any hope?
yeah could ask them to restore the item
likely possible
OK, I retooled my Hotbar, I guess I go buy Level 50 Tomestone gear now
Depression
yup
best ilvl = wins Certain content does not follow this rule
This should be good, but I should Maybe put the LB Button right next to the EXP Bar
Do they usually email the full game code when we buy expac?
I know how many missions it is, but how long does 5.5 actually take relative to like 5.4?
if you wanna do cs a bit, maybe like an hour or two
im done with SE customer support its been 2 months now and my 10 bux isn't refunded yet when i try to buy crysta.
So, I recently purchased Endwalker. I tried to load into the game just now, and am met with this screen. Have others been facing this? Either way, is there any way to fix this...? Please ping with any help!
Nice guide 
I can't log in/Error 2002/I can't create a character/Where's my Online Store Purchase/World Visit isn't working
All FFXIV services are under load and priority is on Logins. If you need to perform anything not directly related to logging in, try again later.
So not too long even w/ cutscenes then.
correct.
TY
@fair geyser this issue doesn't cause problems.
SE is currently focused on getting everyone into the game, so visual stuff such as your character profile won't be shown, but rest assured it's all 100% fine in-game
Hoping to do all of 5.5 and try some new content today. Seems doable.
friend found it but yes its pretty neat tbh
anything is doable as long as you dont DC
@fair geyser Nothing to worry about, your character is fine, just to help with server load they don't show your character at the moment
@hard aurora Gotcha. Just checking. Thanks!
long enough to not be annoying
I have tons of armor and weapon coffers in my saddlebag taking up space. Are there ways to get the weapons/armors for multiple jobs, or are they for only one job? They're mostly coffers given as MSQ reqards.
keep going back out to the menu and back in and it might eventually fix itself, but you can jsut log in when its like this wwithout issues
I've only been DCing in queue, "thankfully"
Very early EW MSQ question: ||Does it matter whether you choose to continue at Sharlayan or go to Thavnair first? Or is it like previous expacs where it doesn't matter and both will meet at some point?||
open them on the job you want, or check MB then open them on that job and sell themn
I don't think it matters
potentially
Much like ShB its a duo route. Doesnt matter wher eyou go. End game is still the same
Smr is similar Mch during the Emerald phase due to short GCD times, but that's all that's similar.
How fast can I go from 55 to 80?
Which one should I use for item retrieval ?
nothing is like MCH. We are simply built different
Reaper, actually
uhhh try report a bug? Maybe a suggestion
no stop
Search the database for "How to Contact a GM" and follow the instructions to submit your request.
Yes however we are happy people. We do not feed into darkness

using MSQ probs a month-ish
Neither do we
We're quite content in farming
But yeh, REaper is just melee mch
Gun > folding scythe that somehow doesnt break when slashing
Oh... But Im already at EW and have DRK as a primary job class
Oh, uhhhhhh 70-80 takes about 8 hours..... So probs like 3 ish days spread out
Ugh
Alternative solution, a boost takes like 3 minutes
So the new dungeon strat is to run to the boss and skip all the mobs?
something like that
Wait, you can buy levels?
Skip whatever you can
from mogstation but its advised if you are going to boost to learn your job. Also think if 20 dollars is rlly worth 3 days of playing the game naturally
If I can play DRK at 80, I can play PLD at 80,I think.
Well, no
Those jobs play rather differently
Your tank instinct will carry over, but not your rotations
imo no
PLD rotation is much easier to follow tbf
PLD is stricter rotation, doesnt allow for as many mistakes. and dot uptime.
^ statement above is also true
actually
Yknow what Imma just say fuck it and buy a boost
cut out all this grinding since I only have today and tomorrow before I go back to work
PLS NOTE It may take some time before an item is delivered. They follow the same path as a player so this item will not arrive instantly
does resistance rank/amount of mettle affect the amount of exp you get?
no its your actual lvl
Question on DRK, needed a reminder since I haven't played in years
what skills does living shadow do? Iirc, it has 4 AOE in its rotation?
What happens if living shadow current target is dead? It plunge to a new target?
What happens if living shadow stands on a spot and the floor is gone? (example, e3s and E4S)
No, that's just for Bozja systems
thank you @wintry trellis @regal pawn
is there any way to like, not see a friends location? slight enw spoilers but id like to avoid them regardless
dont open friendslist is probs the best
or free company
Where's the class level boost item?
If I use a weapon coffer as an Archer, will it give me the weapon meant for the Bard?
takes of adventurer
Is it possible to do a server transfer?
tales of adventurer (class ) III
yes but it cost money mogstation
yes
its the tales of adventurer items. Don't use them during peak times lest you be tossed back in the endless que tho. it forces you to relog.
to the same effect. But you can just not select members and it shouldnt display the locations
$25!?!
IE Topics will display online members, but not locations. Members tab will show locations like friendslist
ah thing is i wanted to invite a friend whos further than me in msq to the 1st dungeon
I told you to debate if 20 or so dollars would be worth the 3 day grind
and i saw someone else in spoiler location :(
If you wish to do this again, open a partyfinder, have them join it instead
so basically, theres no actual way then right
or have them invite you and q into it
I tried to travel to another server and now I’m character is not traveling but when I try to do something it says I can’t do it cause I’m to busy traveling, is there a way to cancel it? Cause I’m just stuck lol
Is there a way to turn off the thing to where if you’re idle too long you get kicked from the game or no… uhhh asking for a friend 👀
It is advised to not travel between world for this exact reason. I cant recall if theres a way to cancel it or not
no - it is advised not to discuss this topic in this server. Punishment may be granted if continued.
Yeah, Im doing it, its christmas, and I've got plenty of money to do it, so why the hell not at this point
Dangit. So I can’t sleep and wake back up and play the game like I used to
Damn I did not know it was gonna do that, I just wanted to buy some non overpriced paint in another server:/
I guess I have to leave game?
Does anyone know if it is still possible to obtain Venture Crates from level 80 retainers' quick exploration? I haven't gotten a single one since EW released
Should people feel ashamed for buying boosts if they just want to play something different for a new expansion quickly?
We are close to degen hours so it might work to do that..... just dont try to world travel during high traffic times YOU MIGHT BE WAITING TO GET BACK IN
yes, quick ventures are rng
No, this is how the devs have intended the shop to be. They want you to play the game. If someone has a problem, blacklist. If they harass you, report them
did you mean ... 71?
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Almasty_Fur anyone know where we can get this?
No, as in.
You can seemingly still get EXP in Bozjan, after 80. So i am curious if its worth it to try that last level, or just ignore it
No the whole notion is stupid as shit, people complaining about other players who are unfamilair with a class jumping into duty finder are even more dumb. They all do the exact same thing when playing Sage or Reaper right now
bicoloured gems or combat retainers @spiral inlet
thanks
considering almasty are in the third zone, the third zone
Ok great so my 80 retainers aren't completely useless, phew
I would take my time and level the normal way, but I gotta go back to work on Monday and dont wanna sit in a queue on Monday Night at 9 PM to level a class to 80
idk the answer to this. I imagine exp drops off hard
Its your sub, your game. PLay how you want. At the end of the day someone might cry about it but just report them or blacklist
When doing the highest tier of raiding progression, is there any job that is almost always a must have 1 of? I would think maybe Ninja for Trick attack but idk if any other classes have been given something similar
Yes and No
while yes, technically there is a meta
again just a word of caution, dont use that while the ques are insane. it will send you back to the main menu upon use.
Does anyone know anyone that's been able to create a new character? - Seems like they have it completely disabled on all servers for like 2 days now.
it is generally close enough that you should play whatever you're best at
as player skill is infinitely more important than what job you're playing
@wintry trellis Aren't PLD story quests boring AF anyways?
server loads are hurting character creation. Try during inactive times
imo most job quests were boring
Do u mean group wise or as in what you must have leveled yourself?
@twilit arch Oh I don't really plan to do much if any raiding myself, I was I guess more asking just out of curiosity sake.
@leaden ginkgo I just mean group comp wise, if there was that one job that is almost always a "must" because of "XYZ" that only it does type thing.
2 tanks (of different variety), 1main healer 1 shield healer, 2melee dps 1 range 1 caster. is the standard comp
basically its more important to have one of each role, and to have unique jobs
Okay, I get it, I'll try to keep an eye on it.
I guess Bard would be nice to have for the group buffs but i'm not really advanced enough in the game to really have a good answer
What's a good PLD video to learn the PLD rotation in 15-20 mins?
Im having trouble logging into my square account on ps5 i know the info is correct because it works on pc
any of them on youtube ig? Better off going to the balance for notes and graphs
what is a one time password? do i need that to login?
no
I know the general comp yeah, I just was curious if any one job sort of "guaranteed" need. Typically, but not always, most MMO in my experience has that one class / job / spec that in a given patch / expansion is a "must have" because of something they provide, where the rest of the comp would be much more flexible.
I know for a while it seemed that way with Ninja? I've not raided actively since HW but I know at one point it felt like you sort of needed the ninja for Trick attack
basically there is no job that is "absolutely must have"
No, I dont know what data center you're playing on but I just logged into PS5 account no problem
Yeah, download SQEX Token app, MFA app by Square.
ninja was a standard for a long while because trick attack was strong
But there are plenty of groups that don't hav eit
or dancer or ast
as i said, its more important to have 1 of each role for the party bonus and to have no duplicate jobs
is there an offline character creator for ffxiv?
Fair points. Thanks for answering
don't get me wrong tho like having those raid buff jobs can help
where can I turn in allegory?
how good is BRD now?
but like player skill generally trumps what job you play
auriana in mor dhona
imo its better.
Less RNG, more consistent
With the addition of High Fire II and High Blizzard II, what's the BLM aoe rotation now? High Blizzard-> Blizzard IV -> High fire->flare->flare->mana font->flare->high blizzard II ... ?
I have my psn account linked to my old pc account, that doesnt seem to be helping
@wintry trellis i see thank you
the SQEX token app also tells me i need a one time password
HB2 -> Freeze -> T4 -> HF2 -> HF2 -> HF2 -> Flare -> Flare
where do i get that?
u only need that if u have selected that on your account, it is definitely not standard
np. Something worth noting, its mainly just dot uptime. But your songs give you rep, which is like what old dot proc would do. Objectively makes the job better and smoother to play
Ooh thanks. Forgot T4 and never even considered freeze changes!
cuz i heard brd got extremely strong in endwalker
given its only been 2 days of early access, its not the best time to judge how strong/weak jobs currently are
^^^^^^
But it definitely can compete w/ dancer a lot more than before
im so happy
it was the first class i picked when i started
glad to hear it got much better
youre also not tone deaf so your songs buff you now so thats pog
Getting into this game is made hard just by account system, the square enix and ff14 have two different websites instead of being one thing
one thing im confuse os the shadow bite change
they are aware
What would you suggest, just as a wonder, for Alt Jobs to do the lvl 80-81 Jump
dungeon spam?
like i just bought the game and i cant even play it because my login info isnt working
since im level 72 and i never used it much since im in SB
but just on my ps5 its working fine on my pc
80-81 is the awkward jump. No leveling dungeons there
Wondrous Tails, Daily Roulette, Pixie tribe, and then mt gulg or bozja to finish up whatever exp you need left
so idk how it works now in endwalker
Pixie still gud for that level?
Could I bother someone to help me with one dungeon? I'm running The Lost City of Amdapor on my Blue Mage and this boss is just preventing me from continuing.
ps5 and pc require separate licenses
wonderous tails, pixies, roulettes
just do gulg
for dungeon leveling, you should be doing the last leveling dungeon to get over the x0-x1 gap
so for 80-81 it'd be gulg
and yes pixies are fine at that level
its not like crafting/gathering where the exp gets shot in the knee
you may need more than 1. if it eats your help and you can't free them in time you're next on the menu. I would offer help if i were still on crystal (and could login)
@wintry trellis since i wasn't avle to use shadow bite since im in SB what change did they do
yeah but the login for my square enix account should still be the same isnt it?
is it the one eating u? are you on light datacenter?
also does it want my square enix account login, or does it want my ff14 lodestone website login?
I am on Crystal, unfortunately.
it wants the information for mogstation (Which is the same as lodestone)
ah rip, if it's the one eating u I also had some troubles with it but I did solo it on my blu so it is possible, you just need to nuke the absolute shit out of him before he attempts to eat you
I don't really have the means to nuke him at the moment.
uhhhh I mean you get ladonsbite which just gives you shadowbite ready
Yes.
are primal data centers on east coast?
all NA datacenters are in cali
Ok well idk, at some point u get enough dmg to eat him instead ^^, basic instinct + dps mimicry + primals, u can even try final sting if hes really giving u trouble
basically your song procs, and aoe procs are more consistent and theres more opportunities that your aoe abilities will almost always be going . I havent played it this expac. My main class is MCH. Just reading and what my BRD friends are telling me; Its smoother and feels good this expansion
Does the CC Mount play Exponential Entropy?
yes
Refer to the balance soon as they will be updating the guides, etc. There are also some yt videos out on it.
40 iirc
they have a set of 80 armour from grenoldt yes but its same model as starting gear
yes
i need half a level to 71 .. any tips ?
play the game
wonderous tails, pixies, roulettes, last ditch effort dungeon
done tails, roulettes seem like 1h queue
PF for them or a dungeon. Pixie tribe is a lot of exp
i forgot to get both tails ..
spam 69 dungeon like 2-3 times
pixie ?
il mheg beast tribe
Are the queue times still bad?
to log in ? no
Saturday night on NA, try, expect the worst
had 40 in queue on EU, granted its 7 AM here xD
Yeah. I last checked 2 hours ago maybe it was at 4K still
morning time at least
Yeah nvm then I guess I won’t be getting on tonight. I was able to play during mornings but ever since I logged off during afternoon I wasn’t ever able to get back in unfortunately
Had the same yesterday that's why I decided to get on in the morning instead, only now dungeon queues take 15 mins ;_;
Not only that, the other painful part now is dealing with that first trial where it doesn’t find any players for 30 mins or more. It actually never found anyone so I have to wait again
im probably gonna get roasted for this but honestly getting logged into and creating a character with this game is an awful experience
i just finished character creation and now its telling me none of the worlds on this datacenter can accept new players
unfortunatly its gonna be like this for however long. id recommend trying again at some ungodly hour
You’re creating during the worst possible time
just save your preferences and try on another server
you're also not great at timing since it is literally 2 days after the launch of a new expansion
^
they could have made that information visible when i was selecting a dataserver, or just have a queue to wait in
It is pretty stupid that you can’t create a character when a server is full
everything regarding login is a little wonky at prime time now
It’s an mmo. Every mmo known to man has this problem at launch of new expansion
not really most mmos just have a login queue and you can see server population before you pick
also you can finish character creation even if there is a queue to login
this is unusually worse
every server is high on pop rn
Things to remember; this game at no point was EVER this popular. They were not prepared for this massive jump in the player base
Servers are working at max capacity right now. Sadly that involved the character creation. Again this is a known issue when playing an mmo at the launch of an expansion
I’m honestly surprised though. This game has been picking up steam heavily in the past year, and it seemed pretty obvious that endwalker was gunna pull in huge numbers. You’d think they would have put out more servers for launch
They literally can’t
Covid
I have been playing mmos for 15 years a login queue is normal, not being able to finalize character creation is not normal
there's a super conductor shortage
and they tried paying higher price to get more server space
They’ve explained how the resources for more servers aren’t available
but like you can't make resources magically appear when there are none
Ive never had a smooth expansion launch in any mmo
That’s crazy
Yeah like I don’t expect short q times. I just expected to actually be able to Q, but since I can’t make a character, I’m not even able to attempt to Q
Okay again, the character creation is part of the server login. When they are working at max it won’t be created. Again not the games fault nor the developers. You physically cannot upgrade servers when half the countries in the world blocked travel, companies are working half capacity or lower to produce chips needed. Yes it’s frustrating. We all agree it’s an issue. But they can’t simply move character creation onto a server isolated from logins
Nah Ima disagree with that, damn near every mmo worth talking about let’s you at least create a character
There’s no real defending that
Again.
whats happening
hello, accidentaly stock up 2 set of masterbook VIII -> III how to get rid 1set of those? 😂
There is no arguing lol
endwalker happened
discard it?
ok so i've finished potd floor 50, but my MCH is still at level 36. can i do HOH immediately or no?
unfortunately you have to use one of them to discard the others

Hoh is 61
oh no
hoh is 61-70
ouch, so i have to do dungeons now
No u have to run potd to floor 60
is that better than dungeons?
and then spamrun 51-60 untill u get to 59
No, just keep doing 51-60
No, POTD exp doesn’t drop off until lvl 60
potd is recommend for dps jobs because queue times for it are generally faster than dungeons
yes but in order to unlock insta 51 u need to get 60
General rule I follow -> If q times are low go to dungeons, if not go to deep dungeons
if you have friends do either, whichever is fun for the group
your gear doesnt matter in deep dungeons it gets replaced by aetherpool
floor has aether lvl limitations
Oh really?
I believe so
Yeah but it’s like really low
So if you’ve been grabbing the chests every run, you’re pretty much good
yes i'm not allowed to go in
with ai ?
Jesus christ im still trying to get the hang of multiple skills on my hotkeys. What if there are still other skills I plan on using for situational purpose but dont see it displayed
Trusts don’t exist in stormblood, neither do squadrons
oh..
add more hotbars
I can do that??
hud layout > right click on x hotbar. It will become visible. Drag it where you need it
i need 250 ilvl ...
Buy shire
i bought these .. stupid me
from where ?
idylshire
Foundation too
foundation
But i wouldnt buy them at 69 I would just wait till duty roulette gets reset and continue then
whos the npc ?
and buy the lvl 70 stuff at rhaelgrs reach
Has there been a fix for the no effects sound bug? Directx9 works but makes the game a stuttering unplayable mess
Rowena
Go do professions or another job in the meantime, or some MSQ
oh you are lvl 70 right? Then go to rhalgr's reach and buy augmented scaevan gear instead
the problem is.. leveling will be done in bojza right ? and everyone is scaled there
until 80 wouldnt this be a waste ?>
bozja falls off after 80
Do u even have bozja unlocked?
yes
It is unlocked after finishing SHB
but i need 71
no its not... lol
It is
Yes it is
besides augmented crypt armour is there anything new i can get with poetics?
finish the sb alliance raids THEN finish SHB
yeah am done with that a month ago
you dont automatically get it
Glams from other poetic gear in eulmore, mats
the entire questline to unlock bozja is unlocked after you finish SHB so yes it is
alright thank you
cant i but the crafted gear ?
Why? Poetics are free
Yes but no point to. Just get the 530 gear in eulmore
wouldnt i need them to but level 80 weapon from sharlyan? or so am told
Also you NEED the stb alliance raids done. Completing ShB does not just pop you into bozja. If you don’t do the stb alliance raids you’ll have to backtrack as the stb raids are apart of the save the queen quest line
this ?
Yeah
No, the augmented one
someone gets it
i know, i already have a relic weapon
It was clarification for others
So just spend 100 poetics to upgrade that
oh sorry mb
I know that but I assumed he finished SB, since there is no point of rushing anything in this game
yeah but i cant ware it xD
No worries. But yes that but the augmented version. Just buy gear from the MB to match the ilvl you need for the dungeon, after that go into bozja. Once you hit 80 then you can equip the 80 stuff and start ew
damn it, 1 level is ruining me now
Not now sure but later...
To the right of where you get gear
auriana in mor dhona
Nah it’s confusing for people.
No
Eden is still from raids not poetics
cryptlurker lol, whatever it was called
the exarchic ?
So is there anyway to show my character on menu again? Because all it's doing is no character data
Wait what was your base question. Now I’m confused
Is also lvl 80 and worst than cryptlurker
wait for the server to heal homie lol
^
Alright
Or just get scaeven accessories
Just focus on doing the dungeon and going into bozja
so am 190, forgot to redeem the tails on my reaper (done it on pld) now i need the exp for level 71. problem is i need to get 250 in order to farm 69 dungeons until 71
Save poetics Bc bozja syncs
Like I said just keep your poetics saved for 80 gear and do some other things until duty roulette comes back
Buy 70 gear from MB
or just go into bozja with the lv70 job gear
or MB yeah if u have plenty of gil and really want to advance now
use WT/beast tribes/roulettes to get from 70-71
if i'm already finished with Shb, is there any good reward for reaching potd floor 200? or i can just stop at floor 100 to get the final story sidequest
also how do u get 190 ilvl on reaper? do u not have anything on the right side of ur gear template?
title
only?
more than likely
p much. You get to brag about how much of a chad you are
are the latter floors super hard?
mounts, if u get the red winged pegasus it sells for like 10 million
Floors 101-200 are just for the challenge, and loot boxes
huh ?
they require optimal movements and pacing
ic
Yes, u only get the titles for solo'ing it too i think
am not sure
Dude did u not open the box u got from the guy
did you nnot open the coffer?
probably gonna stop at 100 then, thanks
do your job quest
with gear?
do your job quest rn and get the coffer
they already did the initial quest that gives a coffer of gear
because they've got the weapon equipped
i385 gear
i want to apologies for how stupid i am
xd
LMAO DW

We've all been there
Where is my boost that I just bought?
servers are being slammed
its going to take time for even mogstation purchases to be delivered
ffs
Yeah, I'll check back in tomorrow
ty for the help ..
As disclosed in our prior conversation, purchases will be delayed.
when are the new set of moogle items coming?
🤷♂️
No worries. LMFAO just remember that for other jobs
When they come
will do 
lel kewl
Hopefully not delayed by too long
I'll check back tomorrow
No worries enjoy 
so yeah, solo the 69 dungeons ?
Lol you wish
just do duty finder
xd
They follow similar pathing as logins. Meaning when the server traffic is being directed to logins as a priority, it will come through when the priority is cut down.
OK, so yeah, check back by tomorrow
this one only right ?
yep

If it aint here by tomorrow morning, I'll just go ahead and play a little bit of EW as DRK
everybody playing their reaper and i am still getting alt jobs to 50 completely ignoring the new expansion ;_;
Only thing i've done on reaper so far is teleport from the aetheryte to my retainer summon bell kek
Wait, does that mean it can take days for items to get delivered?
tbh am not sure why people are rushing all the content. i think we will have around 2 years of waiting for a new expansion. just take your time
yes thats what I figured as well, i finished SHB last week and am just chilling now, trying to completely clear previous expansions and get everything to at least 50
Im guessing because people work 40 hour weeks and 40 hours can sometimes feel like an eternity between weekends
yeah, true
@haughty topaz AND some people actually booked time off for this, (which is stupid imo)
Is it against ToS to use a macro to stay logged in? Lmao
i dont think u can, at least not ingame macros
its technically against tos if that macro is a 3rd p tool
Rippp. Lol. Fair enough
but a controller with a rubber band isn't really 3rd party software I suppose ^_^
people are rushing bc this is free time. Also they have to get main jobs and alt jobs up for raiding in 2 weeks. As well as lvling up crafters/gatherers for gil. They have 2 weeks to do a lot of stuff needed for raiding
it is advised to not talk about this stuff here
With the server issues affecting the game and tensions high from long queue times, we will no longer be tolerating people who discuss afking in game for a long time, people who encourage others to afk in game for a long time, or people who offer solutions to get around the afk timer. Punishments for breaking these rules will be harsh.
xD
Hi have a question, so I used fantasia yesterday but is not prompting me to update the appearance of my character, is that normal given the heavy server issues?
yes
Hey, is getting "Flying Frenzy" from Pharos Sirius not a guaranteed drop? Trying to get that spell as a blue mage.
yes, since youre most likely getting the unable to obtain character data message
once servers are able to obtain your character's data then you can use the fantasia
Aurum vale with a sprout tank is such a joy
if you're running it unsync then yes its not gauranteed. you need to be running it sync'd (either with a full group or via the level sync option) for it to be 100% learn rate
iirc all spells are given once seen and killed. Only exception is unsynced
got it, thanks! Will try in the morning then hehe
Okay, so since I am doing it unsynced, it just has a chance drop?
yes
Okay cool. Thanks
can anyone give me a basic spell rotation for smn at 80?
i havent played smn at all, ever, went from 1-80 as sch
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/277968447739002880/898014925174227034/unknown-16.png a bit of a meme image but its the basic gist of it
ty
so question
if I took a Fantasia from Hyur M to lalafell M or Elezen M
would I have to get rid of my old glamour and get a new one? or not?
unless its racial specific, your glamour will work fine
it will state on the tooltip if its race specific
PSA: DO NOT Search Up "Endwalker Theme" on YouTube if you're looking for just music, as that will result in major spoilers for the endgame bosses. Do it after you have beaten the MSQ.
i see. So no need to buy a new raincoat?
mhm
ponyal/Понял
@twilit arch I just bought a boost for my PLD, Repu told me there would be a delay for it to get to my Delivery Moogle, but they didnt really say how long. Do you think you could give me a guesstimate if at all possible?
Im guessing at least 8 hours because of server traffic
there's no way to give a guestimate
because again the servers are under extreme strain
That could lead to a funny scenario where my boost takes more than 3 days to get here, which in that time I could have spent leveling PLD to 80, thus rendering my investment of $25 useless.
Im tempted to just start EW as DRK, then move over to PLD when my boost gets here.
I quit PLD when I got access to DRK and just never got back to it, but now I wanna give PLD a second shot
it looks fun
I'm having a huge resolution issue that I've only noticed since 6.0. Clothing and weapons in cutscenes looks like I zoomed in too close on photoshop. Faces and surrounding environment looks fine but clothing is wack. Is there a setting I need to mess with? The picture is a crop of just some clothes from an endwalker cutscene
graphics settings and adjust per monitor specs
what should i spend seals on if i dont need gear/mats/housing stuff
you can turn them off entirely by opening character and one of the circles on the bottom
I am on controller.
My problem is when doing my aoe rotation in crowded areas in Bozjan ( surrounded by a lot of players and npcs). It becomes hard to target the next enemy amidst all the chaos. It will sometimes even target an npc even tho I have my weapon out.
Anyone knows how to fix the signs for hotkeys? They apparently ruined the hotkeys signs for non english keyboards
And it is making me insanely frustrated to the point of not being able to play
character settings > target > adjust as needed. I have mine on cone so Im not tabbing to something 300 yalms behind me

Why did it take 74 levels for PLD to get a gap closer?
yes
No, why
And why am I getting ignored?
i am playing the questline and trying to find your answer
please hold til our next available agent
Kay
possible we dont know the answer to yourq uestion
a lot of us are in na/eu and use english keyboards
could you describe it more?
So I previously pre-ordered the EW Digital Collectors Edition, and I didn't get a code for the CE stuff, but I did for the Early Access. Do I get that on actual launch day or would it've been where I got the code for it?
what should i spend seals on if i dont need gear/mats/housing stuff
it will be delibvered upon launch
company seals? Ventures for your retainers
ok
you can buy venture coins?
could you please describe it more?
This. Before the update, the &, é, etc were 1, 2, etc
GC seals allow you to buy ventures and other NPCs sell them as well
||uhhhh how to get around lamentorum? speak with the watcher?||
Wait retainer ventures or something else?
retainer ventures yes
have you tried remapping?
half is blcked off till you hit a certain quest, others have places you can pass
i can't complete the storylne bc i can't get across the map, do i need aether currents?
Yes
no
Multiple times, I am not stupid
I'm locked out of an Endwalker area after leaving, does anyone know how I can get back in? It keeps telling me "You were unable to leave the Area"
I am making sure I do basics before doing more advanced stuff
And here I thought they are only available from leaves... 
i don't understand then, how do i get past the purple walls to speak to the watcher?
what quest are you on, cause theres a quest taht take syou to the locked half, so idk what you did
what quest are you on, use spoiler tags
||helping hands||
Did you try a d reset options in launcher?
And ruin everything in my options? Thanks no
theres cliffs my warrior of light cant climb up and purple walls, i don't get it
You can back up before that
theres small areas like that that let you pass if you zoom in on the map
Also, getting back to the launcher means getting queued each time I want to see if it works
And it's clearly not a problem from there since other people are having the same problem
scowling at squeenix for that one, ty lol
It was after the update, not before
||Was doing the quest "The Color of Joy" in Radz-at-Han and TP'd away to help a friend and I can't find out how to get back in. I'm trying to walk across the bridge to get in and it's telling me i'm unable to||
I cant find anything regarding this... If I had to suggest anything it would be to restore everything to default, then remap it accordingly? If you tried that as well Im at a total loss
if no one here has an answer, try google, or ask Square enix support
Did Zonurskins get mega nerfed? they are like 200 gil on my server
Hello!! My roomate plays this game but today she got this screen instead of the usual login one:
Already restored the keybinds to default
Didn't help
Is there a way to fix it?
Did they possibly open the free trial launcher?
I came here because google is showing nothing and square enix support is kinda REALLY busy atm
sadly most of us will be in the same boat.... If you have another keyboard you can swipe try using that one and see what happens. Hard to say what happened
im new to the game and want to know if u should buy though steam or buy on the FFXIV website
How can we tell them apart? Where is the other launcher?
if you buy through steam you still have to use mogstation for resubbing etc but check out w/ steam wallet
well you maybe shit out of luck for now
I'd have a look at your keyboard language settings, possibly the game is incorrectly picking up a different keyboard layout you have installed
i thought the steam servers are locked so u can play with anyone on the other servers is this true?
If youre on the same datacenter, you can play together
ok
Riiiight, I use the same keyboard as before but I have to switch keyboards when it's the game that is updating and probably causing this.
Nope, it's picking the exact keys, just showing the signs instead of the number like before or for english keyboard apparently
try using the buy now instead of start free trial?
what type is your computer registering?
She was playing just a few days ago anad she's clicking on the usual shortcut.
did she click next
What type of what?
restart and make sure its not appearing again
like is your PC registering a ENG keyboard
lemme finish this CS then Ill look into it
Not yet, she's afraid clicking on next will delete her progress
the data is stored on a server so that is unlikely. Try restarting it
ok potd queue time is super long, is it because everyone is going thru EW story now
queueing for 61-70 now
not rlly, could just be the floor youre on
maybe JP server is another reason
people do the early floors to get 51-60 bc thats what you spam to speed lvl classes to 50
after that potd drops off playerwise
let me try 51-60 again then..
i'm level 38 now, trying to go cutter's cry and it says 12 mins average
I found something but you wont like the answer
and Im unaware if itll fix your issue
Can't be worse than playing in qwerty cuz that's the only fix I am seeing atm
you may have to change a setting in the launcher.
Again not sure if thatll fix it but.. thats what im finding
I just redid my DRK Hotbar, any important skills Im missing?
cant say exactly but for 80 it looks... right to me?
And what is that setting?
Cuz weirdly enough, putting my keyboard in qwerty is enough to make the 1-2-3 appear
there is a language setting in the launcher
otherwise you may have to fiddle with your keyboard layouts in windows or whatever you're using
So I wonder what I need to change a setting in the launcher when the game can change that
its obviously a bug
so you may have to just deal with it as is and wait for a proper fix
Its a bug that the closest thing that matches it dates back to 2019
Why the language setting would change it?
Show it?
Cuz it's not linked to azerty, it's not the same thing
Because when I swap to qwerty(and I am not playing this in qwerty), the numbers 'magically' appears
i dont know, do i look like i develop the game 😛
its just a suggestion, since keyboards are usually closely tied to languages, it loosely makes sense
are there any guides on new summoner? i finally got on to the game and i'm not even sure how to set up my hotkeys :/
here
@iron horizon
Heya got a dumb question, a friend went to another world and has been stuc kthere for 70 mins, wouldnt relogging back to kujata be faster or do you log back in
to that other world
It depends on queues, I tried to do that yesterday and got kicked back in a 9k queue
Que time in JP is like 200
anyone remember if "Tank you" achievements got incremented w/ trusts?
that same guy has been waiting to change worlds from gungnir to kujata for like 80 minutes
World visit queue is behind normal login queue
afaik if u log out and go back in u just join your homeserver
The world visit through menu does not work at the moment
Well, going to bed. Thanks for the help anyway.
I saw yesterday someone complained about audio cutting out which I hadn't experienced but now I am .. did we ever figure out a fix for it?
is clipping a tiny bit of GCD really a big deal
Am I missing something? Why can't I fly here yet
Clipping? You mean slidecasting?
doesnt work
the guy has to reque
if my friend is in Mateus and I join Malboro will we be able to play together ?
Clipping means you click your ability too late, and you aren't able to click your spell/weaponskill on GCD cooldown
And clipping too much means eventually your burst will drift away from the party buff
honestly is it really a big loss in DPS or ppl overreacting
It is, because clips add up
aight
Sometimes you can't help it because you are distracted by an unexpected incident, like a party member who is supposed to go to a different spot walk to yours
where is the airship to ||OldSharlayan||? i forgot to sync to the aetherite XD
Take a boat
But consistently having clips in your rotation is not a good thing
Do I need to confirm my purchase like the email says for my boost to be delivered?
@kind tree follow the same way you got there the first time
ye i sometime clips stuffs donno if big loss or not, i probably back to not care xD
I mean.... I don't remember, which is why im asking.
So you went to lisma...
That's fine
Question on DRK, needed a reminder since I haven't played in years
what skills does living shadow do? Iirc, it has 4 AOE in its rotation?
What happens if living shadow current target is dead? It plunge to a new target?
What happens if living shadow stands on a spot and the floor is gone? (example, e3s and E4S)
No just to wait
It’s a bug from them reducing aether current count for old expansions. See if your aether compass finds anything. If not then Submit a bug report.
Ok thanks!
I know its in limsa, i dont remember where tho
Couldn't you click the boat in old sharlyan on the map
And find where it connects to in Limsa?
Wait WHAT!?! They reduced Aether Currents?
any reaper 70 guides yet?
Not sure on the first point, but for the 2nd and 3rd: they change to your current target if theirs dies, and they just give 0 damns about the floor falling under them

Will the exp earring be for all characters you make on an account or only the 1st character to receive mail?
For all of them, it's account wide
Oh thank goodness.
Sis is in Gilgamesh so will throw a character in there to join her when she comes ashore
I have the starters pack but no new content, do I need to buy the end walker seapredly?
yea
Where I can get a promo code for free?
Nowhere
was pixie tribe exp nerfed?
No, it’s meant for 70-80
isn't it supposed to give millions? i'm only getting a few hundred thousand on my lvl 70 classes
Remember the deal with smaller numbers?
oh i didn't realize that at all, thank you
after the dungeon tower of zot first boss as soon as i enter the next room my game crash unexpected error 17 what can i do
Does anyone here from the aether servers have a Demonic Attire I can try on? Trying to see a preview before I think about purchasing it.
is kryles outfit still genderlocked?
Yes
can soeone explain to me the renewal msg?
i was a trade mentor before and now im not
do i have to renew it or not?
i dont undestand what the messege is trying to tell me
whats rear and whats flank?
Rear is behind, flank is side
where exactly does the side start and the front end?
!faq positionals
If a boss has a rear u can't access then there's no positionals just go ham
so i purchased a job boost to 80 and story skip
but i didnt get it on the moggle email
how long does it take
Usually less than a day, but with all the stuff going on it might be longer
someone said it was instant
hmm thanks
hmm
Duty > collection
It's almost instant on a good day.
Try 24 hours
mmm hmm
Now drag it on ur hotbar
Is this a zone-wide thing, or gotta be within range?
Hi guys, I pressed a certain key combination that muted my battle sounds (skills etc.) and all I hear now is the music. Is there a way to fix this? Settings shows everything is unmuted.
zone wide
did they change potencies? because the reaper has a 520 potency skill and fire 4 is only 300 lol
bug report it is, then. thank you
It’s a new expansion of course they did
you also have to consider buffs/traits that affect jobs
whoever said it was instant lied, it's usually pretty quick but with congestion and such it could take a few hours
in the case of Fire IV, you have a 1.8x multiplier for AF3, and enochian giving a passive 20% extra on top of that as well
can I buy this as a free trial or do I need the starter edition first?
All buffs stack multiplicatively
Need starter edition
so fire iv real potency would be 648 right?
For black mage specifically, yes.
ah i didnt see this ty (:
Black Mage also has another trait that increases their base action damage by 30%
what is it?
Maim and Mend II
I have no expansion option, I'm lvl 80 with all the prev expansions, trying to enter my Endwalkers code but nowhere to enter it
how much time to do we have to reaquare mentor status again?
6.1, IIRC
does the astral fire 3 buff apply xeno and foul?
no, those are unaspected
the damage bonus from AF only applies to fire based spells--so spells with Fire in their name, along with Flare and Despair
what about enochian? does it increase xeno and foul?
that applies to everything, as does maim and mend
bump
you need the base game first otherwise you can buy that
is sage or whm easier to play
Click on Service Account Dashboard and scroll down
also make sure you buy the correct version THAT ONE DOES NOT work for steam if you are doing steam
that's where I am in the picture though, Wynne @obsidian patio
What options are given when you scroll down?
||So for endwalker dungeons. You only get xp for the bosses I know that but is that for all dungeons now or just endwalker||
All duties
Hmmmm….. I don’t really like that change but I’ll see how it affects me dungeon hunting 70 classes
How can I get my DNC from 80 to 81 without having to wait in queue 
real quick is that the official site?
Overall exp from duties is still the same afaik. So nothing changes
Yes it is
why does it look so weird O_O
New look
ah, haven't seen it since update then lol
Does Service Account Status have any buttons in it for you?
i remember seeing being able to put on our sprout icon again. Does anyone know the command?
UI is confusing yes but its hidden somewhere for sure.
Oh you’re talking about the main EW code.
Wait, why does it tell me to buy previous expansions?
That won’t be usable until the 6th or 7th
same here
YOU DO NOT NEED TO BUY PREVIOUS ONES
yeah i can access SB right now but the question is the what after the early access
just base game and then EW
anyone remember if "Tank you" achievements got incremented w/ trusts?
Is there somewhere you can see the total number of grand company seals you've earned from turn ins/deliveries?
you can use /nastatus on to turn it back on, or edit your search info (can right click your name in the Party Members window and edit search info there) and change your icon there as well
it will give you all the expansions on the 7th when you get the official code
Achievements > Grand Company
It tracks up to 500k
ah good to know
Any idea when we'll be able to play cross data centers?
nobody knows and atm i wouldn't even want it.... would kill us all lol
Lol. I just want to be able to play with my US friends
I mean, if servers stabilize, it would mean you could travel to other dcs for S rank kills, so it would defo help a lot to have it
Region-restricted DC travel is stated to come out in 6.0x, AKA before 6.1
s ranks would probably die before then as we don't know travel time or what restrictions are
I hope not
true, but it could still help if dc travel is like world travel.
people could be asked to wait a few minutes
how do you get npcs to ride your mounts?
good question, no idea as i couldn't get them to 
try /beckon or something on a 2 seater
seeing as how there was a 20-40 q before EW for S ranks just on aether... Imagine the world during EW timeline....
hmm question, I had been levelling my PLD on and off for a while (got to about 77) but after the patch, I dont know if its just me or the content itself I used to run. But boss fights where I used to not require a healer and be able to sustain both myself and a party member or too (e.g. ghimlyt dark) are definately not the same.
Havnt played the job regularly enough to know if its just me or if there is a valid change
it's because of stat squish
the stat squish was likely to affect older content
might just be a side-effect of stat squish
but just know its the same dmg
Yes patch notes didnt seem to really show that there should be a noticable difference
we are basically back at HW numbers
slightly above
Which is why I was confused as to why all of a sudden lacking a healer in that particular place (since poetic farming) was problematic
Is the amount/list of headgear that male Viera can wear the same as female Viera? Or did they optimize it so that they can were more hats?
pretty sure it's the same
What does this even mean?
How long do you think it’d take to level DRK to 60 if I did msq roulettes daily
Those are the base values isn't it?
means it deals more dmg vs what it was before
The job action site shows all actions from the POV of a level 90 player
if you only do msq roulette, then like 12-15 days from 50 to 60.
Cool thank you that’s not so bad
Has anyone seen a Calydontis Horn sell on their server? I got one and none have sold so far, and since I assume its kinda rare Im wondering what it has sold for
Why is it already 320 when I haven't even do the quest for that trait?
does it show max level potency in actions tab too?
Do I unlock level 530 gear in eulmore tomestone vendor?
yes
ty
Probably a UI bug
What does your spineshatter dive show?
I'm still playing through ARR so I'm taking a small break so I'm not taking up server spots of people trying to play the new expansion how long do you think before I should come back?
im having issues with the one time password system
right now
@covert marlin when you go into combat in the open map, do you get a blue Job gauge showing up?
