Right now I was doing the first 10 floors and I was already lvl 30 or 40 aether
and was getting nothing
meaning if you execute a macro, and wait 4 seconds, once it reaches the next line it'll execute on whatever you are currently targeting
bozja's not too terrible up to 90
try getting to 50 so you can do 51-60
but endwalker dungeons will ultimately be better assuming your queue times aren't bad
gotcha, so for quickcast -> wait (for lag) -> raise macros, you need to be targetting the same person for the whole macro then?
Yeah I just want to avoid the “aether remains unchanged”
each line of a macro is executed in real time and nothing is "saved" or "remembered" when it comes to its activation procedure
but if you're soloing 1-10 for whatever reaosn, then do drop to like 5 or 10 or whatever
awesome, thanks!
Endwalker like directly or through the roulette thing?
hell probably drop to 0, cause you don't need much for these levels
queueing directly, don't want to do roulettes after you've gotten the daily bonus
macros to execute raise is actually not recommended
do shadow settings affect the FPS in this game?
Yeah I’m just only doing the easy ones to legit farm stuff
even if they are just a party announcement
if you're going to make a raise macro, do not combine it with swiftcast
because with Endwalker, they added visibility of the target you are raising
Ok thanks
I had a swiftcast rez macro for a long time, works fine as long as you spam it
make it the raise itself and have swiftcast on a different key and hit it manually before using the raise macro
why's that? i mostly just want it for quickcast so it's fewer buttons
it's because macros are executed at a macro level
which cannot be queued into the gcd
macros are also easy to break
meaning that on execution your gcd is delayed by .2-.4 seconds per execution
if you don't put waits and just mash it'll fire fine
swift can go off and if you spamming something else, its entirely possible to swift a different spell than the raise
and that too, macros are not reliable for combat
I don't know how that'd work tbh
cause you can't queue the swiftcast in the macro, so how would it fire inbetween skills?
gotcha, that makes sense, thanks!
so what's the fastest way to farm aphorism tomestones, is it just dungeons and hunt trains?
let's put it this way
plus if you're rezing, you're just spamming until it goes off, it's not like you're gonna be weaving a GCD rez anyway
hunt trains, though might want to be mindful of world visit during peak times
however, if you press it before the gcd is available, it is "queued up", and then executes it as soon as the gcd is available
any other ways?
its just safer and more reliable to not macro them together, at the end of the day
cause hunt trains kinda unreliable rn
however, a macro cannot do this
meaning you need to press the button frame perfect every single time
raise is probably the least offensive combat macros
likely you'll only be using the macro once or twice per fight, the DPS loss is negligible, if you even lose anything
but overall it's not a good idea to put any combat macros ideally
if you even have to rez, it's a dps loss lol
you'd need to basically get an additional GCD in the fight in the .3secs you lose from not queuing it
What's the name of the in-game DPS check thing?
stone, sky, sea
what is the best setting for shadow to not look like crap but to also not have them eat 15 FPS?
at that point you're just trying to salvage the situation
- SSS does not account for a job’s RDPS contribution via skills like Battle Voice
- SSS is a 3 minute burst window where you adjust your rotation to fit in that period and does not reflect a realistic raid scenario
- Different jobs will be in peaks and troughs of their burst windows
- Different jobs have different SSS dps requirements
- SSS is not accurately tuned for the jobs they are supposed to represent in most cases
- 3 minutes is short enough to be able to be affected by lucky DH Crit bursts
- Certain jobs gain dps by having additional party members like Dancer/Monk
don't get the wrong idea, I know that it doesn't seem like a huge difference and there are tons of people who still do combat macros
but it is a loss of damage
combat macros and rez macro is very different though imo
it's like mouseover macro for specific skills
combat macro means executing a macro while engaged in an encounter
or targetted macros like Shirk
that isn't pre pull
all of which are perfectly viable
pre pull macros, you can do whatever you want with them
yeah but using a macro for your normal rotation will lead to big negatives which is why it's not recommended
using macros for skills you use 3-4times in a given fight at most will not lead to much of a loss
just keep in mind that those things don't need to be macro'd and should be executed as you, the player
has a sundry splendors vendor been added for shb yet? where is it? I can't find them in Crystarium or Eulmore
yeah crystarium next to tp
10.1, 11.8 Crystarium
has the same requirements as eulmore
oh cool ty ty
what can i pour my excess purple scrips into?
materias?
So with the release of endwalker I'm wondering if it's possible to cheese some mechanics in eden savage unsynced like Light Rampant, is it possible to do a Goodbye world type cheese for LR or nah?
materia
i guess so. thanks
I'm almost 90 but i'm only receiving level 88 quests in MSQ. Am I missing out on a ton of xp if I get to 90 before I finish msq? Should I catch up on another job?
@fallen niche i heard you still have to do LR but its way more lenient
it's likely too early for anyone to have figured sac strats for eden savage, plus generally the bump in power levels early in the expansion isn't that great
the xp isnt a lot.
No, flow of story is much more important, finish the MSQ
yoshi said msq was designed for one lvl 90, and you were supposed to run a couple of roulettes to keep up with level requirements.
ty
so thats why i kept hitting leveling walls during msq 
I didn't hit any but I had rested xp
any discord for fate trains in EW
question time. is it normal for 50/60/70/80 roulette to not count towards completion of that one zeta/lux quest: morbid motivation/cut from a different cloth? or is this a bug?
An issue when undertaking the quests "Morbid Motivation" and "Cut from a Different Cloth" wherein completion of a level 80 dungeon via Duty Roulette: Level 50/60/70/80 Dungeons does not count toward quest progression.
its a bug
where do i get lodestones in zadnor?
also, how do i get back to ||radz-at-han||? I stopped MSQ there before being able to attune aetheryte and idk how to get back
thanks!
Do you have thavnir?
I do, will I be able to walk to the gates? It's at an undiscovered map location and idk if I can jump down
oh I see it. I'm blind, ty
in pvp modes like frontline is the adrenaline bar personal or does it share it with the team like limit break?
personnal

is there a reason it disconnects me from queue under 2000?
Is there other ways to level up other than bozja front it's boring ngl 😔
Dungeons fates
There is a lot of ways to level up
Quests guild hests
Challenge/hunting log
So I'm guessing the answer is no as I've not been able to find any info on it or settings, but is there a way to keep the filter on the Market Board set to max level and "All" jobs...without having all classes at 90 that is?
I'm more of a crafter than anything else, and it's terribly annoying having to update the level and job filters anytime I want to look stuff up.
I got out of my queue and into the game. I can only hear bgm and menu sounds. All my settings in audio look fine.
Thanks I will do those
It's a bug. I had it earlier you cant fix with settings. I think it has to be restarted. I'm logging on again to see if mine is fixed
is there a way to change the VO to japanese in the PS4? version?
i can't find it on the settings
Am I doing this right? Stats-wise
thank you, I just waited 3 hours to play so I will deal with it
Uh, what does it mean if my exp is locked? It wasn't there yesterday
Have u registered the latest expansion?
Yup, enjoy the music at least lol. I've been waiting 1hr so far. Looking like it will be 1 more hr.
You need expansions
I pre-ordered it endwalker
You need to register it as well
You need to reenter EW code
Looks alright to me. You shouldn't really need to worry too much about substats if you're equipped with a full set of poetics gear.
I'm on console
You get a pre order code and a release code. You have to enter your release code now.
Click See unlocked Key
Copy Acitvation Key
Paste into client.
Done.
If on pc.
What is the WHM SB relic weapon?
Try quiting and close the game. And then start it again. It’ll ask ur confirmation to add the latest expansion
I see. I’m trying to follow what on The Balance. SKS-wise
Blade's mercy
That's not SB
My fav ❤️
That's ShB
Oh Stormblood
are you asking the names?
Ultimately it comes down to personal preference, but unless you're optimizing for Savage and Ultimate Raids it really doesn't matter that much.
those were the eureka weapons

I see. I want to optimize it for EX dungeons. Well then. I guess I’ll just keep hammering down the mechanics. Until it became muscle memory 😂
The only SB relic weapon I know the name of is DRK's Xiphias Physeos

Is augmented scaevan gear the best to trade to level new reaper? ILV 400
Yes
Yes
TY!
is the MSQ enough to get a fresh lv60 to lv70 or do I need to supplement it with some duty roulettes?
How does one get a relic weapon?
MSQ will always be enough to level a job on its own
I never had to bother with that on my console. It does happens?
You spam highest level dungeons as well
Where do I get weapon for reaper IL 400? On Reach is only gear
Depends how far you in MSQ
There’s 4 different relic quests
I highly suggest not to do Arr ones
Lvl 60-70 just spam dungeons?
Highest level ones
I'm not sure. I'm not on console but I imagine you still have to enter your code on Mogstation the same as PC.
Is there any place I can excange it for tomestones?
I know they are usually super high item level
Way better than dungeons
I'm in post Shadowbringers
Okay
I see. I never had to do that on console though. When it’s ready there’ll be confirmation dialog to add the latest expansion when you logged in
Remind me:
If you DC in a cutscene
Regardless if its post duty, you start from the beginning of it, yes?
Yes
Thank f+ck
Storm blood relic is a grind and a half
Found it, it was another NPC next to it, Thanks all
I highly suggest doing Shadowbringer
The Stormblood ones?
Yikes
They are not on the full picture?
Nah let me find one

Woops
What rank FATEs do I need to complete to unlock Gadfrid?
what actions become lemure's slice and scythe at lvl 86 for rpr
What about these? Im Warrior and SCH main.
you need rank 3 in all endwalker zones
Honestly if you like it go for it
The shadowbringers relic grind gets easier if you do all the steps at least once s
Is Ishgard Restoration good for leveling crafter from 80 to 90?
Hey homies sorry too bug, just bought the complete edition, any idea how often chararcters are available in the US? I can make a character in EU if I hide behind a VPN but I would prefer not too, PST timezone if that helps
Cause if you like to do another one it gets easier cause you can skip some steps on your second one
just keep an eye on https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/worldstatus/
some NA world should be opening up within like the 3-4hrs
How many tomestomes of aphorism does the first level 90 dungeon give?
no, the exp gets kneed capped
The thing is idk where to start. I rushed and just did msq up until end of SHB. I want some cool weapons now lol.
I see, just do leves then
do sharlayan leves/81+ collectables/studiums
Follow this guide
You have to do the lvl 70 alliance raids first
kk
This is a css styling page.
So too make a character I don't have too select a datacenter? @twilit arch
you would, yes
This is my first time playing the game new account and stuff
Oh so just select any EU one too make a toon too monitor the lodestone, and then once something opens up just make a character on NA?
don't need to make a character to keep an eye on the lodestone page
Sorry @nimble burrow
Does HoH is good for leveling lvl 60 jobs?
Copied wrong link
it gives me this message when i click on that @twilit arch
hoh is good for 61-70
np and ty! I noticed it had google in beginning link upon closer inspection lol
Np gl with the grind!
Thanks. I have to clear PoTD first 
not sure why its giving you that
xD
Definitely don't need to be logged into view the server status page
If im idle on the launcher and just leave it open does it refresh automatically? Im going too try at midnight then its 08:33 right now
Ty, I just started Bozjan yesterday. Lvl 10 glad to see it is related to getting them
I've always wanted too try FF XIV Online tbh
not sure if the launcher server status page automatically updates
I think I got my final version in about 2-3 weeks
Try the free trial. Though I think they are not allowing new accounts rn due to too many people.
By hardcore grinding or just casually?
Mixed
You could do it hardcore
But you will kill yourself doing it that way
Just do a step by step
Oh I bought the complete edition already @nimble burrow
Cause the advantage in shadow bringers relic weapons is that you don't have to do certain steps again if you like to make another one ❤️
Downloading right now, waiting for midnight so I can hopefully get in an NA server, does it matter which one I choose? Or whatever I'm looking too get into I should be content?
should i buy a lvl boost or a story skip?
Never
Lol okayyy will keep that in mind! Just going to ready over guide while waiting in queue. Thanks for the help!
Never do that
@ionic swallow ask yourself that, because we dont know why you would want to unless youve a specific reason
i dont care for lvling or story i just want to do raids and fight
then get both @ionic swallow
yeah but both is 45 dollars
server doesn't matter too much, most things are cross server. Main things that are not are free company (player guilds) and housing
then youll have to do one or the other
Raiding is not the same as you think it is
yeah which is why im asking which one would be better
Hmm what should I do do you think just get into any server? or shoot for specific ones for like housing and guilds @twilit arch
as a new player, i would suggest just going for whatever server you can get into.
Oh nice! Server does not matter unless you have friends you want to play with. Just be on same database. Some servers have less people should go for those for lower queue
there's no dead world so finding a free company isn't that hard
@ionic swallow its a lot of content to skip the story. you can skip it, then level like crazy on dungeons if youd like
Thank you appreciate it so much! Is the reaper class good right now for DPS? I prefer like high DPS / bruiser type classes
that would be better if youre 10000% dead set on ignoring the story
i was looking at the overview and the skills / VFX look nice
you need to own endwalker and be lvl 70 to unlock reaper
Np
yteah i was jus tgoing to watch a recap such as im not a big fan of reading
don't really have good numbers atm since main way of trackign numbers hasn't updated yet but generally speaking the game's balance is very good
Where do you trade off yellow scrips?
so ultimately play what you enjoy
mor dhona
aight. do ask around for opinions though. good luck @ionic swallow
Yeah I do own it i'll just get too level 70, whats a pre endwalker class I should try with a similar playstyle? @remote lintel
Ffxiv is all about the story tho q.q
is it possible to gift my friend endwalker?
thanks!
thanks i was asking for opinions in here but alright! lol
@leaden ginkgo https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Job look at the base game classes except rogue
so i saw a vid a while ago with reccomended ui settings for dungeons and raids and it looked so much cleaner and easy to understand but i cant seem to find it again is there such a guide ?
drg is kinda similar and shares the same gear as reaper
indeed, was about to say dragoon could work
Dragoon looks sick I wanna try that one
mmhm. i was thinking… reaper is its own thing. its not that easy to answer
or what about samurai? Basically like a berserker class or self sustain DPS
well rogue is unlocked super early
you can't start as rogue but you can unlock it early
i can tell you that reaper definetly feels like a bruiser of sorts. its got that punch.
black mage and dragoon have two different playstyles, with black mage being a plan and position for maximum effect playstyle
casters dont have mana issues if played correctly
Ima go with dragoon then so I can stick with that warrior style then since I'm going too ultimately follow that
Are you looking for a new clas?
First time player
Class*
If I was visiting a world when I last logged off, is there any way for me to choose to log into my home world from the login screen?
Ah
also casters have the issue of casting times but dont have to deal with direcctionals
cast times arent really an issue
warrior looks cool too
i would suggest trying black mage and dragoon both. see which you like
It's a tank class
dragoon is fun
im biased, since i play both, so of course ill say both of them look awesome and play awesome
how does fashion report work?
but do try both of them c;
if u like pets summoners is great too
What do you wanna do? Dps tank heal?
yeah forsure appreciate it
u get summon really cool stuff
are mounts and stuff necessary or any like QOL purchases you can make?
definitely not
Nah
is it glamour based or actual armor/set based?
you can't even use a store mount until you unlock mounts in the story
@oblique yew either one
and can i use things from different classes?
You can get a lot of mounts through the game
or just one?
does anyone have any advice/help on how to register w/ the free trial? I've made an account, but upon logging it it tells me I have to put in a registration code
on steam or the SE launcher
the launcher, though I had no idea I could just launch it from steam
i asked that because steam has a different license and you can only pick one
did you download the trial launcher
They are two separate
is the trial launcher different? if so I might not have
yes its different
after registering for the trial it should have directed you to the trial download
yup I see the email, I'll do that then. thanks!
Buy the game now complete edition 😉
if ARR and heavensward can hook me then sure :)
hey question, if I were to use fantasia, but then decided to not use it will the edit opion remain on my character for how long?
its not on sale
aww
@cobalt pagoda forever
Still worth tho
really?? that’s something
well until you use it i mean
what's currently the fastest way to level alts from 81-90?
Dungeons
Daily roulette then dungeons
Specifically msq, leveling, Alliance, and frontline
Trial and raid are okay if you just needed a bit of exp to level up
For example, going from 82.7 ish into lvl 83
still worth doing trial and raid while u questing tho
If you want to power level spam highest level dungeons
Lvl 83 would let you do a new dungeon
or do fates while queued
can you solo fates?
yeah
Yes but it can be really slow sometimes depending on the fate
Remember to bring your chocobo
but normally theres other ppl doing shared fates for vendor
Can you cancel world visit queue?
you cant party with people when you're queued for dungeson right?
You can
But everyone goes to the dungeon
u dont need to be in group to do fates
^

duty timer on right. same way u cancel everything else
I wanted to try out FF14 and I made a nice looking character and when it came to finding a server....there is not a single NA server that is accepting new characters. Does that change as queues go down or is that permanent until more servers are there?
You just have to keep tryibg
Trying creating a character at off peak times - 1-5am
Like really early mornings
Thank you
@blazing hare are you on the trial
So, does innocence ex actually have an enrage or does he just constantly repeat the same mechanics over and over till you or he dies?
Oh, I normally play games at 11pm to 8am cause I work graveyard shift
its an ex so i assume it has an enrage
I am on trial version
Damn..
Do warrior still need skill speed? Inner release is changed to charges right so what do we need it for?
yeah trial people can't queue because theyre lower priority, so you'll probably have to wait until like early morning hours
Yup ur best bet
Or buy the game
I understand FF14 is massively popular right now, but that seems...not that welcoming lol
https://i.imgur.com/CoGECpP.png
m8, i beat the msq like 4 days ago, the fuck it means i havent registered EW

W0T
well trial people arent paying for game time whereas paid players are on a clock
You need to register the actual code now
Can't do much when servers are full almost all the time
thats cause subscription ppl gets priority. wouldnt be fair for free ppl to get in before ppl who actually paid for game.
And they literally can't get more servers
..... i guess i'll uuh
do that in the morning, wouldnt wanna log out ._ .
Yup
very true about people who actually subscribe getting priority, I suppose I will try after 1 or 2am. thanks!
u only register early access code not full game code
go to place u brought it and click view code. there will be 2 codes listed
register 2nd code
Click See unlocked Key
Copy Acitvation Key
Paste into client.
Done.
me tryna remember where i bought the game 
must've been on steam
it tells you what platform youre on in mogstation
or check your email from when u brought it and click view code button on it
@flint lance Quick question. The memories are an item in inventory? I've been doing Bozjan till lvl 10 and don't think I have memories. I'm thinking I needed to get quest first to collect them 
found it
is there a confirmed date for when they boot out all the ⚠️ danger mentors ⚠️
the what
need quest for memories to even drop. no quest then no drop. it goes in inventory
hot take just remove the mentor system entirely
it's shit, most of the people who are "mentors" aren't actually doing their job
They are
Have you accepted the quest?
Nooooooo all my time spent no drops! I'm gonna go cry on Bozjan.
mentor system is mostly for them to queue mentor roulette so it can help new players u get queued with to do there content.
I don't understand how rotating works on extreme 83... Well, i understand, but my brain can't handle these geometry t-t Any tips?
so.. im looking around the new mogstation (hate it btw, cant find shit)
where the hell do i register me keeey
No, I just did now :l
Remember memories don't drop 100%
wait.. think i found it
happens. just make sure u get quest next time
It will be a long grind
nerp, we've not found it
most of the mentor's I've spoken to don't do mentorship solely to help others, they do it to help themselves by helping others with stuff
Just follow the guide and you will be fine
Find a person who looks like he knows what he’s doing and follow him
mentors have until ??? to re-apply for their requirements. until then, their crown shows as
⚠️
i.e. they see someone in novice network asking for help at X dungeon, they have a job at that level, so they jump on the opportunity
@left whale theres a big button that says endwalker registration when you scroll down
12hrs on Bojzan no memories cause no quest 
that's what i do but u want to do that myself for extreme
When do i lose my sprout symbol?
Q. Q
and then there's mentors that just don't know what the hell they're talking about
finish patch 5.3 and have 300 hours of /ptime
I think
Yeah, even in extreme people generally just follow each other
thats what party finder is for if u want help with x dungeon
there's a really good youtube video by yukizuri that draws out all the rotations
man, i guess that explains why my CE stuff never came in the mail 
novice channel is more for asking for help if u find something difficult or something or not sure what to do
I think it's better to watch a video than
finish shadowbringers (death unto dawn) and 300 hours playtime
im still not relogging 
to hell with that
The Endwalker extremes are really difficult
Time to go cry doing fates for another 12hrs and see how many drops I would've gotten xD thanks again for help
don't be one of those people 😔
Np
i thought 83 was surprisingly easy
It's easy if a few people know what they're doing so others can follow
just remember every part of relic quest requires u to have quest to get item
you can just follow the 🔺 danger dorito 🔺
I should try them more often then
There's no danger dorito if nobody knows what they're doing - and that's where the challenge comes in
even without that, ex is designed to be puggable at least
I will make sure. I tried stacking quests for different jobs to farm all at same time but not allowed to take more than 1
Yeah you can only do for 1 job at a time
you can have each individual step active at once for different weapons, though^^
so like step 1 for one job, step 2 for another, and so on
can some one help me with what is the closes color of red from the eye color character seceen???
Fun! Lol
But tbh it just makes it longer
u just need each class to be at higher part. then u can grab quest on another class etc. so u got 1 of each quest on different classes to progress all same time
certain quests are recommended to be stacked
you can get both Raw Emotions and Timeworn Artifacts from Delebrum Reginae, for example
Depends on how far you are in tho.
yeah
@nimble burrow just started
ahh..
Or you have the Dorito person confidently stand in bad
Got it, I will do 1 then stack it with lower
just gotta remember once u finish 1 part pick up quest on another class and get next quest on class u completed it on
What should I buy with company seals I maxed them but dunno what's useful
Emotes 👀
I love emotes
They sell emotes??
like 2 or 3
material box 3 or 4 if want mounts / minions to use or sell
Have you promoted yet
need max rank to buy them
Yeah
promote to max, buy all the emotes, bardings, pet
got my squadron
I mean, the mentality makes sense - it's a danger dorito, so wouldn't you want to avoid it? /s
buy material containers once you're captain for mounts and minions
4.0 is generally better
Free minions and mounts
that depends on how much stock of the 4.0 is on market. if 3.0 stock is lower and sells for more 3.0 one will be better
just depends how many ppl selling each
is it better to do MSQ with a DPS or Healer, and duty roulettes with the other?
Idk if I could buy all that again I just got my squadron
i just get a lot of FATE rewards from 3.0
Personal choice
where 4.0 is mostly rare drops and hard crafts
ultimately up to you, but i personally would do msq with dps as they have longer queue times
does any one can say what eye color in character creation is closer to pure RED??
healers (usually) have quicker queues, though with sage being released they're kind of longer than usual
thats cause 3.0 is both ARR and HW
while 4.0 is just stormblood
right now im still getting crates for my own collection lol
so, just like Lakeland fates was great to level early 70s, what's a good area with fates to level 80 to 81?
i guess it's easier to have stb gaps than arr/hw
okay so I'm learning tank, specifically as a GBR, and I'm a little confused on something. It seems that having Tank Stance isn't enough to guaranteed all mobs pull on you, and "Follow Me" only affects one target at a time. Am I supposed to cycle through all the mobs in a pull while doing my rotations to make sure they all pay attention to me? Can I not just find the biggest guy and focus him down?
upper levels of the first two zones in EW
labyrinthos/thav
You need to spam that circle ability
@stray osprey do you mean gunbreaker? also are you aoeing multiple times?
try hitting all with aoe attacks is what i do
i would just mess with it and find out? pure red isn't there because it has special significance
@craggy tinsel @twilit arch Thanks!
Okay, so I do have to hit every enemy to keep them on me. So basically outside of bosses I'm doing nothing but small mitigations and my two AoE skills?
You will lose enmity over time so you need to keep spamming aoes
I just thought Tank stance made them more likely to focus on me anyways.
no tank stance adds more aggro to your attacks
which means you need to attack them
^
Which means using spin attack ad infinitum.
yes
Not super interesting.
Spin to win
Tanking in raids is however different
I'll deal with it in exchange for near instant queue times.
Then when you fight a single target you do your cool stuff
Yup
not at my level range
Yeah I main white mage
yes because they dont HAVE aoes at super low levels lol
at lv60 cap we don't have full AoE rotations yet
And I spam Holy 4 24/7
at lvl 60 every class definitely has aoes
But you have an aoe
read what I said again
Can I list items for sale and adjust prices on the Market Board through the mobile companion app if my character logged off in a world that is not my home world?
at level 60 every class has at least 1 aoe button which means theyre spamming it in dungeons
tank stance just basically multiplies your enmity generation by a lot so it's easy to keep enemies off of the rest of your party - however, they can still pull it back if you aren't doing damage
That's dumb.
So as a Dragoon, my main class, I should just be Doom Spiking over and over?
im pretty sure even before every class has an aoe, its still worthwhile to do za big pools just cuz the tank has aoe
lol
In Dungeons?
if theres 3+ mobs yes
Yeah
No?
You do combos and rotations
Only tnks pull mobs
And apparently the answer is "yes", do the same thing over and over
thats how dungeons work
WHM: Spam holy till the enemies die
@flint lance we're saying every class will do aoes in dungeons please read
All the way until now I've just picked an enemy in the mob and done my regular rotations on t.
Not when I have a single low-damage AoE
look at it like this:
potency of your AOE x number of targets
potency of your single target
whatever number is larger, do that.
I swear it's more efficient to do real damage against one enemy as opposed to barely any against all o them.
a low damage aoe times 3 mobs does more damage than your single target combo on 1 mob
More targets = more damage overall
when i swap classes why does only my first three hotbars change, and the fourth one remains the same skills as my previous class?
trust me the balance has all the math nerds and they have done the math on this
You have to set which hotbars are shared in settings @ember magnet
only the first three are by default
And when the aggro drops, that’s a damaged dps
all damage is real damage
oh, under settings?
Truuu
The problem is that this wouldn't bother me if I wasn't in a position where I only have literally one AoE.
If I actually had an AoE rotation
So use it
you picked the class that gets its aoes super late lol
I wouldn' care about actually doing it
drg and nin get their aoes the latest out of all the classes
But I don't have an AoE rotation, so I get to just... sit there with my thumb in my mouth and my other hand pressing X over and over
Except you’re not?
welcome to dragoon
Am I? I only have one AoE.
you will get more later
dragoon doesn't get the rest of their combo til later
the last part of your aoe combo is at lvl 72 so
for now this aoe is better than doing single target on pulls
I don't think I can bring myself to do it lol
roll a different job then
that's too boring
They’re all pretty much that tho
No, I'll do my AoE rotatons once I have more than one buton to push
40 62 72 are the 1-2-3 of dragoon aoe and they're not that much different
But when I only have ONE, I don't find hitting it ad infinitum entertaining
If you're not doing your AoE skill on a big trash pull you're hindering the team :\
nobody show him bard...
i mean sure but your dungeons runs are going to go way slower then
yes, spamming one button over and over again is boring
and people are going to probably be mad
yes its boring, but you should be using doom spikes on 3+ mobs
Math time!
Let's say your Doom Spike hits 5 enemies.
That's 110 x 5 = 550 total potency per GCD.
Let's compare that to your 123 combo of True Thrust -> Vorpal Thrust -> Full Thrust.
That's (230 + 280 + 400) / 3 = 303.33 total potency per GCD.
Note that these numbers for True/Vorpal/Full Thrusts are after getting Lance Mastery II, which affects the first one primarily (it would also affect Vorpal, but it doesn't affect combo potency iirc).
Math. ✨
That's the thing about being new. Most players don't know about that and won't bother to complain.
low levels are slow thats just how it is
But like aoeing multiple targets isn’t that big a deal
Agh... I'm just trying to get enough Allagan Tomestones to buy Shire gear... Then I can move onto Stormblood and actually get more AoEs.
How do u get down there in old sharlaya?
you dont need a full set of shire gear just so you know
if I had to guess just from this screenshot alone
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/contentsguide/worldvisit/
Looks like I found the answer to my question.
・You can purchase items from the market while visiting another World.
・You can list items held by a retainer on the market, but you cannot list items in your inventory or chocobo saddlebag.```
The answer is no, you cannot use the companion app to list items for sale from the inventory after logging off in another world, however if the items are in your retainer you are ok to list.
They wont let me use the lift
Then go around
Well I got the Ironworks gear after ARR, so... why not get the Shire gear?
i mean you dont need to grind for the full set
There is nother way down
this then
The problem is that my job armor is pretty bad comparied to other job armors.
My lv60 stuff for Dragoon I got is 40IL lower on each piece than GBR
if you have mostly a full set then you should be good
Despite the same level
Still can't, im a on cliff side, cant jump down because of invisible wall.
I'd need to look at a map of your zone then, hang on I'm almost in the game
GNB and DNC starting gear are 15 item levels below shire, that’s just how it works
My Dragonscale Armor is IL210, whereas my Outrider's Armor is IL250.
Why is the Dragoon's gear so much worse?
I never had any navigation troubles when I was in that zone, so I'm struggling to figure out what's up... hang on
because gnb came out later probably
power creep
is there an plugin with fps counter?
@normal sandwhat sthe name of the quest
Gunbreaker came out at level 60, but two expansions later than this level 60 dragoon gear you have
anything new worth buying to turn seals into gil? i used to do coke
And that's why I want Shire armor lol
can just open Character Settings I think
A guide of sorts
did you already go down the mine
No, but im doing that now.
I'mma go into stormblood looking cool and feeling good. I did it for ARR, and I'll do it again here.

then the mine should be a straight path that leads you down there
I know of that, anything else that using an 3d party progam?
Yea i got it, just a long walk lol/
I have a question about hot bars. I have a hot bar that I added for weapon skills and every time I swap classes the hot bar is still there (of course) but it still has that classes skills, is there any way to change that?
character config > hotbars > sharing and untick it
for some reason mogstation isn't registering that i own endwalker collectors edition
is this happening to anyone else?
so it looks like Dalamund actualy has an FPS counter, tho I will like if it was more..........subtle
did you register the game code
The AST’s purple orb is HW relic right?
yes
maybe like 30
Kk
oh it looks like i only used the early access code
Are there any reaper weapons for level 70 dungeons like Ala Mhigo and such?
Or do those basically just start appearing in Shadowbringers?
Yes, reaper and sage have crimson lotus weapons
Nice
Ok that's cool lol
does vengeance reflect attack show like a dot floating text?
Any other SB dungeons with Reaper/Sage weapons or is it just Crimson Lotus on that end of things?
only other lv70 weapons for those two are scaevan, hoh, and crafted
newp
Fair enough lol
does anyone have the triple team VIII acheivement? I've had all the card coming into 6.0 and defeated all the 6.0 npcs and gotten the cards from the, all the cards I have left are from instances or fate stuff, and I'm at 106/107
Panda raid tier will probably just be called P1S, P2S, etc?
probably
yes
Coils are the only weird one lol
panda raids xD

Coils is commonsensical too, T1-13 because each was simply named "Turn X" instead of confusing shit like "Arm of the Father" or "Eden's Verse: Refulgence"
Did they add master recipes for lvl 81-90?
no, those are coming with savage
well, there are a few master recipes but they are in master 8.
the master 9 recipes will be with savage tho
I got those. Thanks!
Anyone ever had Fantasia disappear after using it? Can't re-edit my appearance from the menu and when I logged back in I don't have it in my inventory
if you're getting "unable to retrieve character data" at the login screen, then your fantasia is not lost
you just need to wait/refresh login until the servers are able to retrieve your character's data
and then you will be able to edit
Good to know, thought I just lost 10 bucks. Ty I'll try again in a bit
Registration Code is where you put in a code for a expansion right?
duty > trust
Thankjs
whats fastest way to farm aphorism? daily roulettes? or just farming a specific 90 dungeon/trial?
So i just got umbral soul and i dont think i fully understand it
is it like better trasnpose ?
is XIVLauncher patch with ew can i use mods ?
Yes Dalamud plugins are working
good to know Thanks
so if i see i wont have time to cast blizz 3 before the fire runs out is stranspose still a better option ?
Hi do you dispatch retainers to sell in different cities ?
If I'm logged into the game on one pc will it log me out if I try queue'n up on the other?
talk to the vocate in the city you want to dispatch them to
Thanks
as far as i could tell, its doing the lvl 90 dungeons and then just doing every roulette at lvl 90
Or hunt trains
Can track hunt trains starting here
Hunt trains are in fact the fastest
ye theres a few ive seen, just got flying in all zones myself
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Uraeus_Skin do any of these leve quests actually drop it anymore. I refreshed 20 times in gridania and didnt see it a single time. That's 60 quests refreshed!
yes
hey, Im looking for an item, and I used item search but it doesn't seem to exist
do you have the item
the machinist's goggles
I got it from the coffer a while ago
but it just doesnt exist, even when I go to the calamity salvager
Look in your armor chest
I did, it's not there
Well that’s because you buy those with centurio seals in the last Knight
/isearch "machinist's" doesn't bring up anything?
how do you buy a house/apartment?
just the 4 basic parts
Interact with the placard at an empty housing plot and select “purchase”. For an apartment, enter the lobby and speak to the central NPC at the desk
everything besides the goggles
hello, i switched from ps4 to ps5 and installed the ps5 version.
i have now started the game on my PS5 and i logged with the account but ive lost ALL macros, hud, settings, gear sets and hotbars
is there a way to get my things back?
Do the new extremes drop mounts yet?
Yes
so i have to find an empty plot, is that hard?
Yes
And then you have to spam it until the invisible timers run out
spam it?
Once a plot is vacated, it has an invisible, random-duration timer until it becomes purchasable again
There is no way to tell whether this timer is still up except by attempting to buy it
So empty plots tend to get crowded by hopeful buyers spamming the purchase button over and over
Hoping that they’ll happen to be the first to get it when the timer comes up
And that it will come up before they fall asleep
Can be over 24hrs
In patch 6.1 this is being fixed to a straightforward lottery system
Not yet
I haven't played in 6 months. What happened to all my summoner spells??
The expansion happened. SMN has gotten a complete rework
they've become better
why they do dis 
I was literally playing Endwalker yesterday. Using same computer
because the old rotation was boring
enter your full game key, not preorder key, two different keys because japan
!faq earlyaccess
Oh okay I’ll try that, yeah like I just did the first trial last night
Click See unlocked Key
Copy Acitvation Key
Paste into client.
Done.
meaning you click once and the winner is picked after a certain time?
Yes
You get your money back if you’re not picked so no real downsides
Anyone else getting a glitch where they loose all audio except for system sounds and battle music?
has anyone in here managed to ever get a refund on unspent crysta? i accidentally added an extra 0 and spent 80$ instead of 8
Is there a way to get on if your on Console? Looks like all servers are full or down
gonna ask again, but has anyone managed to fix the i2501 error while trying to reg your EW code? already tried doing it from my phone and whatnot
does anyone have a link to discord for world fates?
Is there a difference between legacy servers and normal ex: "NA" Vs "NA Legacy"
Or is that basically just a cosmetic difference
you could try to wait 24h after your last try and when it then not work contact support since sadly i2501 can be like anything
been waiting 3 days now
Does anyone know what helmet this guy has?
@haughty flame legacy just means it exists in 1.X, before A Realm Reborn
It has, as you assumed, no meaningful difference
Can't even make a character to get into a server on console
Is there something wrong with the launcher right now? I'm getting a really weird bug
You just gotta keep trying
are you on trial
Ahh, just wanted to make sure it wasn't for example wow vs wow classic. Ty for info
@atomic jewel looks like blacksmiths goggles
So when I start the launcher it's just blank like this for a while. Then when I log in it asks me to activate a registration code? For an expansion I pre-ordered and have been playing since launch day?
Give it a minute. Aftter you have inputed codeeee
the preorder code is not the same as the full game code
you need to enter the game code
!faq earlyaccess
Why are some aetherytes now worth over 1,000 Gil for transportation? Not that I care, but I'm surprised it took em 4 expansions to implement that.
is the folklore traders token C for the new gathering nodes?
Because the cap was originally decided to be 999 back in Stormblood but given how rampant gil inflation had become they decided to up it
Has anybody else had every single keybind ever reset? Like I got every single one of mine reset today
Should I go Anima again or RES weapon
well anima is faster
I think? I'm on console with the digital download
It'd be really funny if there were places that you could ONLY access by spending a million gil for aetheryte transport
@flint locust did you buy the game or not
I did
Agreed, I already have the materials and whatnot saved up. :
2:11 AM u_u Been up all night
Thanks for the help
Is there a place to fucking check if my support ticket even exists
it claims I need to be logged in (I am) to have a history
Is there a way to know when a world/server is accepting new characters?
!faq worldstatus
can some one help me with this thing??? way does this character look so bright? is it my ingame settings or my PC ?
Behemoth doesn't seem like its accepting new characters rn
||they literally tell you he's a ghost||
||no I saw other people play and I can make sense of his face not this bloody BRIGHT||
How often does that thing update?
I bought fantasia to change my appearance, waited 2 days for it to arrive, finally got to use it and logged me out, but it doesn't give me an option to change my appearance when I right click on my character name in log in screen. I think I just wasted my money for a bug...
Has anybody else had their keybinds just reset? I genuinely just don't know how this even happened.
@cobalt pagoda they probably have different game settings from you then, turn down your gamma
if you're getting "unable to retrieve character data" at the login screen, then your fantasia is not lost
you just need to wait/refresh login until the servers are able to retrieve your character's data
and then you will be able to edit
How much did you crank character lighting up
ok I will look in the settings
fairly often
that affects other NPC?
Yes it affects all characters on screen
When it says you cannot use that character name, does that mean it is taken.
did they nerf zonureskin maps? whys the price so low
on that server yes
yes
F, someone is using my game name u_u
It’s not current
Indirectly, the last mogtome introduced a stackable guarantee portal map that was the same tier as zonureskin
new lvl90 maps so old aren't worth much
Why does it say "unable to obtain character data" ? does it have to do with the traffic?
It's using the same servers as the login servers
oh ok thanks I will look into it, does the in for veweing cutsceen reflect your ingame graphics settings
And the login servers are being hammered
yes
I'm just clicking X to enter the server, hopefully thats the best way to get in.
except for depth of field which only affects cutscenes
ok Thanks :3
hi guys quick question, i heard that WHMs in this expansion have an issue with their casting compared to the healers?
that's just opinions
7 hours of this and not in, sadly. Hopefully they expand servers
they literally cannot
nice dance tho
They literally physically cannot, all server orders have been backlogged for months and their earliest ETA is February
to be specific they mention somethin bout hard stops in their recasts?
We cannot meaningfully discuss or draw major conclusions about Endwalker job balance for a number of reasons:
-
The current sample size of recorded runs is too small to eliminate RNG. Even in the data we do have, there is too much variance in player skill, rotations, party composition, and killtime to be able to make any conclusions.
-
The currently available gear is too limited/inconsistent, and future gear’s mainstat/substat distribution may affect balance.
-
Patch 6.05 will likely hold extensive job changes, just like 5.05 did (see: https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/topics/detail/b6083dbda4e9497698b64163ffc8cee52472b81a)
-
While basic rotations have been theorycrafted and simulated, optimal rotations are dependent on encounter and party makeup. Fight design, job synergies, and yet-to-be-discovered niche optimizations are all things that can influence job balance.
-
Preliminary data is often misinterpreted and spread, causing more harm than good.
Job balance is better left for approximately 1 month after Savage release, since there are more recorded runs, better gearing options + BiS sets, and fight designs are known.
Any current definite claims about job balance are at worst clickbait or pure speculation, and at best educated guesstimates that are subject to change as available information changes.
As soon as you said that I got in lol
i wasnt too sure what they mean by hard stop in casts, i was just curious is all
when is 6.05 dropping
gehsundheit
You can't change your name huh?
Not right now, no.
jan 4th
good luck to anyone trying to add you
Name change services have been temporarily suspended with the expansion launch.
also its $10 to change your name
Now time to cry in the corner with the stupidest name ever
Lmfao
whyd you do it
A small price to pay to get into the servers u_<
What's the best retainer class to have if you're using only two?
1 combat and 1 gatherer
Uh since my keybinds have been wiped, any advice for keybinds since my previous setup got wiped?
I'd rather play than care about my characters name
which gatherer?
hello can anyone help me figure out some log in issues?
I was uninspired with leveling fish to 80 last time; I realized it was RNG
Hopefully this expansion be better;
Go on.
its probably because the servers are literally on fire
i can log into the SE website but it wont take the same password to install the game
I know some of the food requires fish to make now. So I'm stumped overall
I like how you can't even use a game name you use from other names because its 99% Likely to be taken
are you sure youre logging into mogstation and NOT the square enix store
is there a way to hide this? I don't really care about achievements and it's annoying
i dont even know what thst is so id assume not
!faq mogstation
its the account management site for ff14
thats what im on
you need to make a mogstation account to play
ok then i use that?
yes
ok tyvm
asides from wind up yuna, are there other Summoner iterations in the game ? Like Eiko maybe,? just any canon Summoners (maybe even their familiar)
im ftp if that matters
@forest nacelle https://secure.square-enix.com/account/app/svc/ffxivregister?lng=en-us make an account thru this link
Rydia, and her outfit as of now
are you able to log in to the mogstation website?
oh I see, Rydia and Yuna so ar are the only summoner mionon's we've got? Thanks !
@forest nacelle are you trying to use the steam launcher?
no i was on the website linked
Im about to go into the first dungeon. After I beat the first dungeon in EW, is it safe to look up its music on YT or should I just not?
its still saying its wrong

but mogo let me right in
where did you download that launcher from
!faq freetrial
try this launcher
@cursive abyss it should be fine
just be aware some people are putting spoilers in thumbnails so you might see that in the related videos
Hey guys i need some help here, i just got a new computer, reinstalled ffxiv (steam) and now im trying to log in and it is requiring a registration code, i try my endwalker preorder code and it doesnt work and says the code was already used. i made sure to log in with the right account too, am i doing something wrong?
the game don't got the other cool gals GARNET(Dagger) or EIKO summoners as a minion? T__T
Where in Qarn are the Flame and Fruit tablets?
does anyone have any suggestions for a secret santa gift? Maximum spend of 300,000 gil
in the area with the 2 buttons and 2 heads opposite each other
I redeemed it on mogstation already and i am logging into the same account but just on a different computer but it doesnt have my account/codes
did you redeem both codes
yes i redeemed them all on mogstation
In the side rooms? That's a pain, because I'll have to convince a party to do extra pulls then.
do you think it could be an issue with the servers?
might just be a steam issue cause it sometimes has launcher problems for trial players too
i was playing fine like 2 days ago, then i got my new computer and installed and then this so i dunno
might be the servers lagging behind
quick question does the MSQ rly give exact lvl exp ? like if im 72lv 0% and start 72lv MSQ will it rly get me to 73 msq and lvl or is there grind between ?
you usually gotta grind sometimes, usually a few sidequests will do
even with a few exp boosts ?
depends on how big of an EXP boost you have active
coz i got my sam at 75 but i also did some reaper and got to 72 and my msq is at 72 so im kinda tempted to switch coz its more fun then sam but also flavor of the week
hard life of a sprout
If you are under 73 when msq reach it, just do one leveling roulette, and you will probably level up from it
does queueing for a specific dungeon, queue me along with people who play roulette?
Queueing for specific praetorium seems longer than msq roulette for some reason

It does
That's actually how the game make sure new players get a party
You think experienced players actually want to do 4-player Titan in the story?
Yeah that's what I thought, still feels weird. I only have 2 MSQ for now but when I queue for roulette instead of prae, it's like 3x longer for some reason
I guess it has something to do with how it handles match making
It has to group up everybody while filling the required roles
I mean isnt that the same concept as a roulette queue though
There are some fancy stuff going on with roulette, like priority for first time players, or a player who waited much longer than everyone else
Remember that it is considering two separate dungeons too
I assume there's quite a bit of shuffling and back and forth, in order to make everyone happy
But still if there’s not enough dps/healer/tanks in queue, you’re gonna have to wait until they show up
How do i start new game plus? Its not letting me in the menu.
