thanks
click the quest objective
Final Coils of Bahamut is in Northern Thanalan by the Ceruleum Processing Plant iirc
Just walk out of the gate to the north and to your right is a giant boulder thing with the entrance to the Final Coils
Ahh ok thank you. I must have missed I had capped a stat when I was trying to meld it.
You...don't mean me do you?
no the person

Yeah that's my thoughts too
have you tried sitting on the ledge too?
I saw this the other day and asked myself
Cheat engine or something along those lines
The answer is it's a third party program doing it

You can force the game to use chairsit
Sad
game asset mods, eh that's hard to detect. modding via cheat engine, i wouldn't recommend
insta banned from being reported
oh
It's the same reason bots aren't banned for clipping underneath the floor
It's just one of those things they don't check since it's relatively harmless
Is there a maximum number of airships/submersibles a free company can have? I'm in my 40s for carp and botanist and I want to help out with them with my skills
like building, making magitek repair materials, ect ect
i thiink my fc has 99 cerulean tanks btw if youre wondering?
Is there a term for moving in and out of area of effect spells before it fires
Being good at the game
^
For example: the boss shows on the ground with a big yellow circle where the attack will hit. You move out. The circle dissapears but the boss hasn't fired it yet, but you can still move into the area
When i entered a fight my camera worked diffrently than always, my character was moving in corelation to the enemy, so when i went left i started going circles around my enemy, how do i turn it off?
I don’t see it there
ok
It's called moving out of the snapshot
Respecting mechanics
dodging
getting good
Not standing in the danger
It's a nice feeling to move into an area before the boss fires it and not get hit
did you accidentally lock on
No? i clicked on the enemy and started fighting with them
I think I just completed a realm reborn I think hmmm
If you mean that
you'll know when it happens
Pressing right stick by default turns on "classic" lock on, which is the targeting system 1.0 used
if you have a weird reticle on the enemy then you locked onto them
I think it's right stick
idk what the keybind is for locking on on pc
It's not bound by default iirc
Im on pc

AHH i think i got it
Can someone show me the location of the area I need to be to access the place where the quest for the final coil is?
click the quest objective on the right side of your screen
Click the map button on your quest
Click the duty list entry > map in the journal UI
I haven’t accessed the quest yet
Can I make my summons superior and large and other summons small and insignificant cause mine are better (and I dont want 2 titans covering the screen lel)
trying to get back into final fantasy after 4 months of absence, best placet o start?
No, petsize is universal
or to re familiarize myself?
So I can’t Locate it on the map
!faq msqtracker
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
alright, thanks!
If you need to slap something you can find dummies almost everywhere
*to get the hang of your new rotation
@long lintel so I should get some ending credits when I beat ultima weapon
Where do you get DoL level 90 accessories?
thank you!
The best way to level gatherers is collectables? If yes, what i should do while the node dont spawn?
I haven’t accepted the quest yet so I can’t do that
Maaan, I love the large summons, makes me feel like a proper summoner and I love it, but I cant imagine a raid with like 3 large bahamuts or titans dropping over the place
ARR has an ending then there is patches of ARR for the true ending
how long is a typical login time?
Depends on server, on Ragnarok I normally wait 2-3 hours, someone in this discord has just said they;ve been waiting 6 hours
So I know people can't buy complete edition now...but I read existing free trial people can still digitally upgrade. I found the upgrade portal to purchase full version. Is this just some purgatory where I'm paying $15/mo. but can't get in the queue because I don't have the complete edition? Or did I find a way to buy the complete edition?
I'm on Sargatanas?
whats the name of the last coil quest you did
@indigo mural
they cant
theyre not selling the game anymore
Another turn in the coil
if youre paying the sub then your enot on trial
If you're already paying for a subscription, you just need Endwalker
Northern Thanalan (X:20, Y:17)
Endwalker comes will all previous expansions
You literally cannot buy Shadowbringers and Stormblood independently, and you don't need to
Please don’t call me an idiot but I’m at the claw but don’t see it there
are you sure you didnt already accept it by accident
the quest is alisaies resolve
ah yeah ok the more i click and fill out forms to upgrade i get kicked out. guess i'll hop on at 1am again
Is the Adventurer in Need bonus locked in at the time you queue for that roulette or is it locked in when you actually enter the instance you got for the roulette?
Locked in when you queue
the moment you queue
click on complete and type in Alisaie's Resolve
wait
there should be a tab in complete that lists the coils quests
click on that red tab and see if theres "coils of bahamut" in the drop down
would ||Eden savages|| still have weekly lockouts..? my group did o4s and were able to get loot each time after we cleared, not like ||eden|| gear was iLVL relevant nearing the end of shb
hey all will i get banned if i buy starter edition from key reseller website? Seem like the only place i could buy it now
Have you completed Second Coil - Turn 4?
I have not
That’s the issue then
Oh wait I have

thats labyrinth
Actually select the duty
click the thing
No
It’s showing labyrinth
SICK, thanks
Okay yeah I haven’t
Quick question.. Is anyone getting some really bad latency issues on the ||level 83 trial extreme|| and that instance alone? o.o
It's really weird i'm getting bad latency there and only there, no where else..
If the key in question was bought with someone’s card that was stolen and they issue a chargeback, it’s a quick way to lose your account.
Well time to clear it then continue
Will I lost all the progress then?
Yes.
your account will be deleted entirely
that is not good, better to email them and tell me I got it from G2A lol
Should I create a new account and wait for SE put it on sale then?
the game is not currently for sale for a reason
ok
bypassing that would probably get you banned on its own
also one person could have multiple account right? my previous account is steam only
whats the quickest way to get an actual alt character from 1-20? lmao
yes but your progress wont carry over
fates, hunting log, dungeon at lvl 15
im sure people could have a purchase they haven't registered yet and want to put it in
hm ok thanks
but i wouldn't want to get a key from non-authorized places for a recurring sub game
ill wait for them to get back on me, and probably going back to my account for that steam version then, since that account is clean
i mean i wouldnt tell them that you bought a key from a shady website
that too
lol it is okay
just abandon that account
i mean my friend gift me the code
Are the Tribe side quests worth doing, the one im doing gives insanely low xp
i have no idea it is from a key reseller website until i asked
Expansion tribes have quest sync
you need to be within 10 levels of that tribe
Yeahhh, they have some really nice stories and exclusive gear, emotes, mounts etc
some give access to emotes and mounts, but the experience is for when your level is relevant to its level
ARR tribes have levels ranging from about 9 to 50, HW 50-60, SB 60-70, ShB 70-80
im 45 lvl and the tribe is giving me 5,720k xp, i need 195K to advance to level 46
ARR different quest givers have different level quests. they kind of solve that in the expansions
Rank 3 is lvl 49 quests for non Ixal
I do want to say that ARR beast tribes do tend to give less xp per quest though generally?
yeah they put them at set levels instead of scaling like SB and ShB. i think the HW ones are random what you get XD
No they scale too
is there a way to cancel my ticket with SE support center 😄 then, or I should be frank with them?
Do the tribe quests unlock anything? they have the blue marker like others that unlock stuff
.
ability to buy emotes, mounts, minions, and supplies
I'll do it then, thanks!
and yeah some also have gear
Should I focus on dr hit or crit hit materias as a tank for max dmg
i wanna run some of the older ex and would love to have a tabk capable of dishing out dmg
whats the command for the chocobo color recipe?
can you get poetics from clearing an instance when unsynced?
Is there a good current RDM Guide? For lvl80 and lvl90?
I'm reading the 5.x one but I don't know if it's still good considering the 6.x changes
ok ty
any one can tell me how to get there and it seems in that mountain or something cause i been around the circle
ok thx
When is the maintenance?
Sorry, my bad. What’s the command?
Oh my god. Didn’t see that. Sorry again
If im overmelding materia 3 just for the spiritbonding (not for stats) does any materia 3 work just fine for that?
yes
awesome, just gotta find the cheapest now
Do the items available for appraisal at the collectable appraiser rotate?
no
The collectables I have aren't there. What else are they for? These are endwalker collectables.
Are you lvl 90?
Yeah
Because if not, all the collectibles won’t be at the appraiser
I'm level 90
this may sound like a stupid question, but are you looking at the correct job at the collectable turnin person
Yeah
It's fisher, and the collectables in question are Smaragdos, Garlean Clam, and Garjana Wrasse
I guess I don't have it unlocked. Where do I get that?
Idyllshire iirc
I've done all the quests there
!quest No Longer a Collectable
Mor Dhona then
I'll check there
i click on top left on mogstations and it makes me go here again
No, I've done all the quests in mor dhona too
click the 3 lines top left and scroll down
should be an ffxiv store banner
You mean the FF14 online store?
.
scrolling more down there's nothing related
i'm assuming you want the online store with all the items and skips and stuff?
omg
Regarding the new event how do youg et the starlight mobile?
okay ty
If you own a game key but haven't installed the launcher are you able to do that right now?
My friend is trying to install the game but can't find a link to install anywhere
!faq download
thanks ❤️
When does the ironworks gear become outclassed in Heavensward?
around 55ish
the same pattern goes on with every set of poetics set of gear you can buy at level cap of expansion
not until fairly late...iirc gear from the vault is ilvl 142, but the stat difference isnt massive.
And ya get the archmage title when you level the 3 the starter magic classes right
I decided to level all magic classes because why not lol
Black Mage is the last
does summon phoenix's rekindle replace its normal attack for that gcd?
No
Is there a place in-game to search FCs and submit an app
I already asked this but I couldn’t check to see if anyone answered. Can you farm different versions of a relic weapon on the same job?
Enkindle bahamut turns into Enkindle phoenix
i know it doesn't replace my gcd, but the phoenix usually uses scarlet flame as its "gcd"
You buy replicas later

Yes but in the form of replica's once you get it past the current level/quest
Oh where can i buy them?
Depends on the relic
Using Bozna as an example, there's a person to the left of the quest giver that provides replica's
I can just look up locations for each job online?
They aren't separate for each job
Each relic series has a different replica vendor which opens at different times
Oh i see where is the hs one?
Reconstruction node in Azya lla near gerolt
Opens after getting to the light grind step
Literally first place you spawn it's all there
Cool ty
where do you go to exchange old yellow gatherer's scrips
Mor Dhona
ah I was talking to the wrong npc
is it possible to play a different online game while I wait in queue to login without any major consequences?
If your internet is good
ok what about an offline game?
Yes to both but depends on your PC
for me I run FF14 + another game & youtube/netflix
What’s the point of giving your retainer a Job? Is there stuff a WAR can get that a MRD can’t?
If it means resetting progress and all that
Wearing only the job specific gear
better gear = better loot was what I was told
can i get kicked while in queue for roulette?
Only relics and job-specific gear need the job itself and not the class
Yes if you miss it
So when do I get War only gear, beyond 50?
So staying as a class is fine for retainers
only if i miss it?
Ah
Gear from their job quests
because im on a 40min queue for roulette rn lol
So you're not kicked from queue just in queue
yeah
i was just wondering if there was a different time limit for kicks when ur queing up
there is no time limit I'm aware of
I was once in queue for almost 3 hours for something nieche
Is the delivery mohel quest a job/class quest? I don’t wanna level anything else atm
😳
No just joke levels
Where can I get a aether compass? Endwalker wise
Duty > collection
Well that’s new!
As of endwalker yes
It's even on the tooltip of the aether compass should you still have it In your item
This might sound dumb but do you have to unlock flying to get to the otherside of the sea of clouds
No
In order to acces the sky pirates?
Msq takes you there
to access sky pirates, you need flying
For sky pirates you'll need flight
Ah damn
Aethercurrent hunting time..
I was sitting here staring at the quest fivuring out how in the seven hells you get over there
And then i tried to go through coerthas
But there was a giant ANNOYING gate
Might as well unlock flying at some point so meh
Ill do it now
is there any way I can log in faster?
is it still about 30% vs 70% of a level castrum vs praetorium?
hi not sure if i did something wrong but i beat HoH floor 21-30 but when i got out i didnt have the check point nad need to restart at floor 1
not really given the server load
welcome to expansion release
well alright then, thanks!
Flight is an itsy bitsy baby gate if you do currents while msq takes you through the area
Log in on off hours, and remember you're getting das boot tomorrow night
Uh, didnt we just get 2 weeks of free subscription for the people that had a running one?
hasnt been doled out yet
Welp, I ran out of sub time right in front of a S Hunt
it'll be given out after the 21st
SE got a comedic timing
Tbf, that's 100% on you
Yeah true
You need to have sub time to even get those free 2 weeks so get yo ass on the mogstation
Yeah yeah, just did it
I just finished the cystarium deliveries story on a miner, how do I get more deliveries for my botanist
You dony
They're shared
You'll need to progress to sharl for more or just do leves
thanks
Anyone else having a lot of 90006 errors recently? My internet is completely fine and even using a vpn but I am still getting it randomly. What's the cause of it?
There's an equivalent system starting at 85 in Endwalker

no studium deliveries can be started after the 82 msq
I'm mixing up with the other role quests, the gatherers only need to be 81 I think
what would the macro command be to 1) make the icon look like an ability and 2) target nearest ally?
any idea what the crafted gear will be for raid release?
or will there be crafted gear for quick catchup?
I'm leveling Monk, and I have no idea how to use Perfect Balance. Does it still grant "form bonuses" for skills? (i.e. Bootshine still deals extra damage and Dragon Kick still grant Leaden fist as though I were in Opo-Opo form)
(Only up to 52 so far)
lvl 82 MSQ unlock, and the gatherer/crafter can start doing it at 81
you can start it 80
Yes
@faint flare Wonderful! Thank you.
Remember which attack is associated with which stance
As different combinations of stances change perfect rush into different attacks
It's like mudras but with MNK's weaponskills
So this is probs a dumb question/speculation but any word on when the servers will go back to normal or when they’ll start selling the game again? I’m on free trial and can’t wait in queue because of it and it makes me regret not buying the game so hard haha
🤷♂️
there's no real way to give a time line when shit will calm down
especially since we're going into the christmas break
Big oof 😭that makes sense
and it's likely to honestly get worse with people having more free time
The best timeframe is sometime after March
But even then it's not guaranteed
because it's literally a supply chain problem
we won't know until they literally have the physical servers delivered and installed
It's not even a money problem
Gotcha gotcha thanks guys, I hate to be the guy that’s like “ree when fix servers” haha
Is the recommended materia priority for tanks different in Endwalker, or is it still Crit>DHit>Det?
Whats the fastest way to gain poetics? I was told eureka fates but i just got booted before i got to do my first fate and i still dont know how many poetics it drops.
!faq poetics
should be that, although WAR values det over dhit, iirc
ehhh, i just do MSQ daily, 500 each time
Why would you ever make a Vanya Hat of Casting when a Rose Gold Circlet is outright better?
glamour
If all my tanks use the same armor, should I give WAR its det and the other three will be okay, or favor their Dhit and WAR will be okay?
Others are fine with det
Substats specifics are being mathed out
They are subject to change
Right now because there's only two sets of gear it's really hard to calculate exacts
Det has been buffed someway in this expansion
This is bound to change once we get normal and/or Savage raids
So we have 4 tanks/fending users, 4 healers/mind users, 3 casters/intelligence users, 4 dex users (3 in aiming, 1 in scouting) and 4 strength users (2 in striking, 2 in maiming. Am I forgetting any?
4 casters technically with blue
Not counting limited
how do i level trusts? and is there a fast method
you do dungeons with the avatar versions of them
and no, not really
since Trusts scale their damage so that dungeons always take about the same amount of time
what's the max size a party can get by endgame stuff?:o
8 is always the max, some raids have multiple parties
So I picked up a level 80 botany leve in Sharlayan, I go to where it wants me to, and I see a green circle but nothing to chop or anything at all...I'm in my botantist job..but I'm not sure what to do
24 for alliance, up to... 72? for some of the weird eureka/bozja content
leves have to be started, select in journal then press start leve
did you hit initiate in the quest journal
ooooh
you do dungeons, that's all there is to it. They gain xp based on the dungeon lvl after you complete it
how is the dungeon grind for leveling 80-90 on even levels? slow?
After i get archer to 30 i gain an instrument, how do i gain more of them?
that's not exactly how performance works
when you unlock BRD, and then unlock performance after, you get all the instruments
you unlock performance from Simpkin(? I think) in Gridania after finishing the job quest that unlocks BRD
so at level 30, technically
thanks!

i swear i just want to know most people play ff on steam or offical client
just curios
region dependent
I don't think that's really a statistic that we'd know here tbh
Steam does have regional pricing
How do I use pots of dye ?
you need to unlock dyeing first in Vesper Bay i believe
I'm fairly sure I have, I've been using glamour plates and stuff
Or is dye a separate mission
right click the item you want to dye > dye
Oh oki
!faq glamouricons
wait I'm getting booted, why??
maintenance lol
ohhh ok
maint is in 23 hours wdym
hey uhh I'm level 64 but trying to do a MSQ 66 quest? how do I level up??
dungeons
dungeons
64
Sounds like it's time for some Shisui of the Violet Tides
ok, thanks!
When you hit 65 switch to Bardam's Mettle
as a sprout, does retainer class matter?
alright, thanks!
yes, since you need at least one class to 50 if you want to use HW or Stormblood job advancements
60 for ShB jobs, 70 for EW jobs
will i know when ive finished ARR? just curious as i progress through the MSQ
like if it will be obvious
You can also only advance Retainer Jobs once
if you want to swap, that will require a reset to 1
a level 50 quest involving a dungeon with unskippable cutscenes should make it obvious enough
Where do I redeem time cards to my account
May I get an inv link for aether hunt discord pls?
well, there's postpatch content, but the base 2.0 quests are that dungeon^
yea but like will a PLD retainer do anything different than a GNB retainer, for venture or any other purposes besides equipped gear
The first (base ARR) one will be after you do the second 8 person dungeon, the second (Patch MSQ ARR) will be when you see the hewavensward title card
only difference is job gear equippable
otherwise follow same rules as player equipment
ok cool
My question?
mogstation
also, is there a particular useful guide for optimizing retainers if i plan on doing crafting and stuff?
one gathering, one combat is the recommended choice
Because I cannot read timezones, is maintenance today or tomorrow?
whys that? to recycle old gear?
little under 23 hours
Combat gives monster materials
mob materials are ass to grind
Stuff like meats and skins
ahhh ok
oh nice. Thanks! 🙂
Related, I'd recommend more combat retainers if you opt to buy more
just because of how much leather you may need
(Leatherworker was a mistake)
Another question
Do any other jobs (Like Bard unlocking Instruments) unlock anything?
Is it true time will be added to our accounts on the 21st?
Due to congestion issues?
yes
if u have a sub till 21st ye
I do now
So I have 60 days starting now
I was subscribed previously 60 days too
Do I get some kind of reward for being subscribed previously?
I'm PVP as DRG, how can Nastrond appear?
Then what's with the veteran rewards or whatever
idk
any particular suggestion on the one gatherer, if you had to choose? or is it dependent on what im aimin for
veteran rewards give you certain glams (based on other FFs) for subbing for certain amount of days
only goes up to 330 days subbed though
I don’t have my retainer at 86 to see what 86-90 fish they have. :/
Do I have an award at rank 2?
this is what GE has for the 80-88 levels
The starting cities have gear from 1-50
the rewards get sent to you via mog mail, may take a bit to be delivered though
Whoa whoa
what with the server congestion
so if not fishing, what else is nice? i saw the reddit post about the new EW fishing retainer mount, so i got curious
How do I check mog mail
there's a mail moogle in every city, just look for the little envelop icon
mail symbol you can find in a lot of settlements
can I toss my EW artifact gear and rebuy it from the vendor? usually I look at shop selling price to see if I can get it from the calamity salvager, but it says none
Do any other jobs (Like Bard unlocking Instruments) unlock anything?
isn't a mount, but a minion. can be worth decent gil but you're basically hoping rng favours you
yes, can rebuy it from the npc in sharlayan
awesome! ty
ok so my RNG is trash, so maybe ill look into something less RNG-esque as a gatherer...hm
botanist and miner are generally going to be more consistent
compared to fisher
but do keep in mind, they can only go as high as you are
and can only gather what you personally have
is there a doc i can go through for a breakdown of crafting/retainers in tandem? since theyre so closely related
leveling retainers is pretty simplistic. use targetted ventures until they're lvl 10 and either keep doing targetted ventures of stuff you need or do quick ventures for quick leveling
not sure if there are any crafting leveling docs out there for lower levels, but there's a leve/collectable doc for 70-80/80-90, ultimately sending retainers out is going to be based on what you need and don't want to bother getting yourself
because they are ultimately slower than you, min amount of time they can go down to is 40mins for targetted ventures
Is the home world transfer available yet or i'm trippin'? Wanna transfer my chara from NA to EU
also, ive heard crafting in 14 is kinda all or nothing? since theyre so interlaced in terms of crafts...so which one would be ideal for a retainer?
no it is still closed for the forseeable future
retainers cant be crafters
they can only be combat classes or disciples of the land
Is Diadem good for leveling MIN/BTN from 80-90?
not really
should be either doing sharlayan leves or collectables. Would strongly recommend doing collectables tbh, they are very good and means you can leave leves for your crafters
also don't forget studium deliveries (basically your class quests for endwalker, but can't do it on both. have to do it on one or the other)
i mean, youre gathering to craft tho right
No, just leveling gatherers for now
so youd want something in demand/rare...u did mention leather, but i think i was gonna do that last since it osunded the most difficult to level
Does rubberband method not work for bypassing away kick?
/taps the pins
Hi! What are the login queue times for tonberry? I preordered endwalker but hesitant to pay for a subscription where I’ll be subject to long wait times. I’ve seen queue numbers mentioned in the last without an equivalent wait time
Brutal
Tonberry is full af rn
Like 2 hour wait time since it’s an English friendly Asia server
Which food is the best?
depends on your class
can't go wrong with crit, determination, or direct hit food
Thanks for the reply! Yeah I’d like to continue where I left off at the end of heavensward but not with 2 hour wait times haha. I’ll check in again next yeah or February when oce server comes maybe
there will be better food with savage if you're planning on have the best food ever for that, if you just want good food now, sykon bavarois or cod chowder are nice enough depending on your stats, it's usually whatever food is wishlisted a bunch though
drk guide hwere :U
!faq balance
What should we stockpile if we want to make BiS food/pots once they're dropped? Would aphorisms be used to purchase ingredients, or would it just be scrips?
How exactly does Sphere Scroll melding work again? How many low level material can I fit in it?
Novus ARR Relic step, that is
you need alexandrite, alexandrite is only consumed on successful meld, you melds t1s into t2s into t3s into t4s
sequentially, you can't skip forward a tier
How many duplicates can there be?
Do any other jobs (Like Bard unlocking Instruments) unlock anything?
of the same materia? I don't remember, it's still a % chance
only CNJ has a significant unlock and that's the unicorn mount
you MUST be a CNJ not a WHM
(aka: ditch the job stone)
aphorism is going to get crafting materials yes with savage, likely also going to use whatever is on the current legendary nodes though its not possible to say what exactly will be required for the new food/pots
conjurer
Thanks!
Aka get the unicorn before the job stone
The sidequest to get the WHM unicorn appears with the WHM unlock
I rode that unicorn all the way through the end of 3.0
What is worth doing at the Golden Saucer?
which one faster to level at 80 outside DF and questing. bozjan? trust? fate level 80-81?
!faq mgpguide
Dungeons 100% for tanks and healers. For dps trust dungeons are probably the best, but Bozja is also an option if you also have other reasons to want to to Bozja
Queueing for dungeons normally while doing fates is also an option since fates unlock bicolour gem shops
hmm thats good one yeah, queue dungeon and fate while doing so
what is the fastest way to earn vote commedation Q in trials ?
I just learned a bit about the Gemstone Vouchers, can someone fill me in? So you need top rank in all the zones then you can buy it for 100 gemstones, but how many do you need for the items? And can other people who haven't done the fate grind buy and use them?
Correct, there's a mount that requires 50 of them, but you can trade and sell them on the marketboard
one voucher for 100 gem ?
yep
But the people buying, are they just anyone or only people who also have done all the fates?
You need 50000 gems :D
oh cool. I guess it's the best thing to buy then, since I don't have leatherworking
ruse geirskokoeks then the next will be nastrond
if you read geirkoekrok it says so as well. good to know moving forward for other abilities
Is that what Geirskogul or whatever it's called is called for PvP or are you just horribly misspelling it
Geirskogul*
I got a question considering MSQ roulette. If I go in as a tank should I always have my tank stance on even if the other tank has it
You don't have to but you probably should for adds
Turns out the limit for Sphere Scroll is around 11, huh
tank or healer
It's also region dependent
what ?
what do you recommand
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
👀
I literally cannot tell you
sad.
i did. but you know they just insta leave
Play healer and give advice to sprouts. That's about it.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
ok what duty should i q for
Quick question about command missions. I'm level 34 DRG. I only see dungeon 32 and 41, I guess they skip dungeon 35 and 38. The dungeon in level 32 gives decent xp considering is lower level?
there's a dungeon at 35 IIRC, that's not part of MSQ
Do you have Sunken Temple of Qarn (35) and Cutter's Cry (38) unlocked?
I'm talking about command mission,
There is no wait time in those
Those dungeon takes me like 30 min to get in
you need to have done the dungeon once to unlock them iirc
I done them all
Ok thank you for the info @twilit arch
to make up for the fact that command missions aren't for every dungeon lvl
I noticed I just did one and it gave me plenty of xp
Am I better off spamming the lv 32 in command missions?
Considering there is no wait time
ye whatever command mission closest to your lvl range
barring the 50/60 dungeon
those are still meh for exp, plus most of them have kind of annoying mechanics to deal with squadrons
Ok bc is lower level I thought I was better waiting to que for 35. Thank you for the info. And yeah I completly agree, they are not the smartest
pepehands, not updated for drk
is there a link to the end of endwalker credit art?
What do you guys think the best dye is for the Hraesvelgr attire?
Are there any veils available for tanks? Trying to go for a Arabian Princess look
So I'm having a bit of trouble getting some details of arcanist I just started leveling.
- Carbuncle summon spells (I have 2 at lv15 right now) mention "Precious Brilliance becoming X aspected" but I don't have a spell with such a name? I'm guessing the tooltip is just written to work at a later point where you have more spells?
- Gemshine tooltip has descriptions of how it's affected by the concept of elemental "attunement"/"aspect" but it's completely nondescript: "fire attunement effect: deal fire damage" etc. I've never seen any concept of damage type throughout FFXIV (had bard and black mage to 90 before) beyond normal damage and magic damage. what are elemental damage types, where are they explained? how is fire different from earth etc?
by themselves no, best you can do is the thavnairian turban
Damn. I was hoping for one since I saw an npc wearing just a veil
attunement stacks are given when you summon Ruby, Emerald, and Topaz carbuncle
they still only deal magic damage as elementally aspected damage was removed back in like, HW
Buy with Centurio Seals at the tavern in Ishgard
does anyone know the probability of getting a mount in eureka bunny fates?
Low
% wise?
We don’t really have any drop table percentages for anything in this game
very low
Idk I’d at least say it’s less than 10% from a gold chest
And getting a gold chest is idk 25% maybe?
That’s a super super loose estimate based on personal experience and not reliable data
they still only deal magic damage as elementally aspected damage was removed back in like, HW
right, so if the concept of elementally aspected damage doesn't currently exist, what is the functional difference between these Gemshine modes?
each elemental attunement grants a different attack for Gemshine and Precious Brilliance
Fire hits harder, has two charges and has a long cast time
Earth is normal, instant cast, four charges
Wind is instant cast with a fast gcd, four charges

You use all of them before your restock phase comes back up (I don’t remember what it’s called at low levels)
Fire hits harder, has two charges and has a long cast time
Earth is normal, instant cast, four charges
Wind is instant cast with a fast gcd, four charges
ah perfect, thank you! that's exactly the kind of info I expected ingame tooltip to have instead of, well, this 😄
The action changes to the attuned action which has a detailed tooltip
it has the correct tooltips too
You can read all these on your actions and traits window too
once you get ruby/topaz/emeral rite you can read the description for these
well you can read it before too
Wait ACN/SMN has a Ruby carbuncle now?
oh, tooltip changes during a fight while you're in that phase? thank you, didn't know anything in game did that, I play on gamepad so I very rarely have opportunity to read tooltips mid fight and usually hover over stuff out of it
always had a ruby carbuncle
They have for many years as egi glamour
Not always.
But do they have an actual Ruby carbuncle now or just the egi glamour
yeah ok not always, once they added summoner egis in... 2.5?
3.5
right it's a skill now until 72
Ruby is one of your three legos at lower levels before Ifrit is unlocked yeah
I know I have the rest of the world open to me, but as a suggestion, for a player who reached level 50 and finished the base game story. What should I move on to outside of the main story quests? Blue quests, duties? I also wanted to figure out how to unlock hunts.
Ifrit still 30 SMN or did the Egi unlocks change with the SMN rework?
Do all of the blue quests
Tons of dungeon unlocks
you do get egis before that
When do you get Ifrit-Egi and Titan-Egi and Garuda-Egi now 
ifrit replaces red carbuncle at 30
30, 35, and 45
Okay, I have been pushing through to do all the ones I find that aren't related to jobs or classes.
did they happen to tweak mp regen? i swear ive been needing to use lucid dreaming more often as healer
!faq huntunlock
'How do I unlock Hunts?'
ARR Hunts: Be 2nd Lieutenant in your Grand Company and complete the quest 'Let the Hunt Begin' located at your Grand Company. You can promote to 2nd Lieutenant by talking to the Personnel Officer and buying promotions for seals and by completing the GC Hunting Log and the quests 'Shadows Uncast' and 'Gilding the Bilious'. This must be done to unlock HW Hunts.
HW Hunts: Go to Ishgard - Foundation at x13, y11.9 and complete the quest 'Let the Clan Hunt Begin' from Aytienne. Followup quests are 'Better Bill Hunting' from Eustacia, 'Top Marks' from Yloise in Idyllshire, and 'Elite and Dangerous' from Ardolain. This must be done to unlock SB/SHB Hunts.
SB Hunts: Go to Kugane at x10.4, y10.3 and complete all quests with 'Veteran Clan Hunt' from Estrild.
SHB Hunts: Go to The Crystarium at x12.2, 15.1 and complete the quest 'Nuts to You' from the Hume Lout. Afterwards complete all quests from Halldor at x9.5, y9.4.
Oh thank you
Which job? WHM?
basically you have base carbuncle as your standard permanent pet always, then you have ruby/topaz/emerald carbuncle as temp burst summons, and they're replaced by egi burst summons once you unlock the egis, then at 90 they're upgraded to real temp burst summons
speaking of carbuncles, I get abilities that are called "summon ruby", "summon topaz" etc, but when you execute them as an arcanist, all that happens is:
- ruby carbuncle appears
- it runs to enemy, explodes with some damage
- blue starter carbuncle reappears
I've previously seen people with persistent red/yellow carbuncles running around, I'm assuming these carbuncles stick around instead of instantly disappearing later on?
at 50 you can do a quest to change the appearance of your blue carbuncle
WHM just got a really really bad MP economy now
@uneven wedge they just use Egi glamour to glamour their starter carbuncle
Ah. I knew I needed Storm Seals. Okay that makes sense. I believe the best way to do that would be fates and the random duty to play.
you can make it red, or you can make it permanent ifrit egi or whatever
You can glamour your carbuncle to be a different colour carbuncle or a primal egi
Other than that no I don’t think MP was fiddled with
requires you to be lv50 to glamour your carbuncle tho
they increased lucid a bit
oh so basically there is no concept at all of any additional summoned carbuncles aside from starter one, ruby/topaz/etc stay as one-strike forms forever?
Read what other said
I haven't really ran into issues with WHM although I don't really GCD heal either, if you try to maintain medica II or use Cure III though it's meh
Yeah
Your main support carbuncle can be changed, but yes the "summon" spells are basically one hit wonders
they pop out for big attack, and then your support carbuncle returns
they do affect your other skills at 72 then at 86 though
Demi-Bahamut and Demi-Phoenix stay out for a full phase of attacks
So Carbys and Egis aren't basically a free DoT anymore? 
Think of it as your main carbuncle channels the abilities of other carbuncle/egi/Primals
The carbies/three primals are now single big attacks
makes sense, ty! I was confused by identical name pattern on these spells - starter spell is also called "summon" but it's result sticks around forever, and one-hit spells are also called "summon" but instantly disappear 🙂
maybe it's naming from before the rework and it made more sense back then?
Yes
oh i guess the gcd speed up affected whm that much, i see
I mean you still summon them
Before EW, you actually summon different Egi depending on the situation, and they stick around
I guess the permanent carbuncle should get a different skill name to make it more obvious maybe
ah, if they used to be permanent the names make sense now!
Or just make it a trait
are there any skills locked to job quests for DOH?
tons
yes
yes manip
!action manipulation
the big important one
That’s actually the only one
Doh job quests are good exp too btw
The other is unlocked the quest before that and is a trait that boosts the chance of a “good” proc
But manipulation is important enough by itself
So do those quests
No relation to the gcd cast change
Running out of mana as WHM 
GCD hasn’t changed, just cast time
1.5s cast means you can always weave one ability
Nothing to do with MP directly
Ability doesn't cost MP
WHM are just a bit whacky right now on their MP
Mainly it’s the loss of thin air
1 spell
Holy gracious, how do we handle the power of making ONE SPELL MP free!?
Seriously, make it like 3 next spells
Like rdm acceleration
!action acceleration
Ensures the next Verthunder III, Veraero III , or Impact can be cast immediately.
Duration: 20s
Additional Effect: Increases the potency of Impact by 50
Additional Effect: Ensures Verthunder III and Veraero III trigger Verfire Ready or Verstone Ready respectively
Maximum Charges: 2
RDM accel is different now
Oh, damn
it's basically swiftcast
Grants 3 stacks of Perfect Balance, each stack allowing the execution of a weaponskill that requires a certain form, without being in that form.
Duration: 20s Additional Effect: Grants Opo-opo Chakra, Coeurl Chakra, or Raptor Chakra depending on the form required by actions executed
Maximum Charges: 2
Can only be executed while in combat.
Yeah, this
but yeah new thin air looks like ass but on the other hand haven't had to use it yet
Yeah the Thin Air change was ass
Should I be putting GP jewelry on my btn retainer?
If they are genuinely so afraid of long duration of 0 MP cost, make it cost just 25 percent MP
I think they use perception now maybe? think I remember something like that in patch notes but haven't checked
!faq retainerbp
but mostly you need gathering
But it shows that retainer doesn't have complicated stat calculation
it'll probably be a bit before we have the retainer numbers
(yes, you can use NQ gear on your combat job retainer to hit the required item level, doesn't need HQ gear)
iirc in the patch notes they mentioned retainers now have perception checks
so far I'm still using 80 scrip gear on my retainers though
Regardless, retainers can just use your leftover gears with minimum or no melds
I tried dropping my HQ 90 gear unmelded and it barely made a difference, only on the 81 and 82 stuff, so meh
Don't really need to go out your way to gear them
what does this little icon beside someone's name mean?
Does Astros still give cards?
yes astro is still using cards
Grants an effect using the astrosigns read from your divining deck.
Can only be executed after reading three astrosigns.
Effects granted are determined by the number of different types of astrosigns read.
1 Sign Type: Grants Harmony of Spirit
2 Sign Types: Grants Harmony of Spirit and Harmony of Body
3 Sign Types: Grants Harmony of Spirit, Harmony of Body, and Harmony of Mind
Duration: 15s
Harmony of Spirit Effect: Gradually restores own MP
Potency: 50
Harmony of Body Effect: Reduces spell cast time and recast time, and auto-attack delay by 10%
Harmony of Mind Effect: Increases damage dealt and healing potency by 5%
O. O
This is actually really good to know
It seems like all classes got streamlined huh
Detaching them from RNG delivers more consistency
Which is good for most part
I still think nothing beats the satisfaction of dropping AOE balance/Spear on your party
But consistency is probably more palatable for most players
nor is it accurate anymore due to squish iirc
or im high and squish didnt effect crafters/gatherers
Is it worth switching here? Everything else I have on is 88 crafted like this.
crafters and gatherers STATS weren't changed
Level 90 atm.
however the actual number gains were squished
yes
Seems statwise I'm still getting more from the relic
Why not get lvl 90 weapon?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I'm not through MSQ
you're getting more varied stats
Increase in Weapon damage and strength is worth it
Looking at it closely, you only loses 42 determination a 6 skill speed (might as well be nothing)
2 weapon dmg is a lot of dmg
in general weapon damage will make a significant difference over the raw stats
1 weapon damage you should change
that said probably won't matter all that much until you hit the MSQ that gives AF
2 weapon damage you really should change
3+ weapon damage why haven't you changed already
damn the SKS ranges are probably very different now for sam too
if you have the sword, equip it, if you're linking from the market, I wouldn't spend 100k or whatever it costs in it
yeah msq gives coffers
this is especially true if you're doing trust dungeons
Weapon damage is massive increase
strength is big increase
Crit is a lot of increase
Everything else is between a lot and some increase
is there a guide on keybind/UI stuff
i'm lv 50 and now i'm really feeling how bad my hotkeys are
LMAO
Stats are not made equally in XIV
so, pet commands
I image for sch, it might be useful to place selene in the middle, but because smn's summons reset to near you when you summon them i shouldn't bother
althought im guessing seraph is a similar thing so throw all em away
@woeful turtle check #protips-and-ui
SCH place is VERY useful
cuz i've just been using the normal 1-10 keybind stuff and using my mouse to click on buffs
aight
The pinned message there should have what you need
like mandatory useful
SMN place is only useful on pull so you catch everyone with your raid wide, more or less
yeah since smn casts on target
also on SCH fairy placement is only cancelled by Dissipation
haven't gotten to that level where that makes sense yet, but im assuming it something that nukes on summon at position?
but otherwise, dont think about smn place?
but you have to adjust the fairy quite often in a bunch of fights, so it's always in range of the tanks/ppl
SMN at 66 or something like that gets a party buff centered around carbuncle
when you pull a boss, sometimes ppl will instantly charge the boss and stuff, so to hit them with the buff, you place carbuncle ahead of you next to the boss or so
but past that, you shouldn't have to think about it
so you can just like click it even, don't need a keybind if you don't have one
on SCH however, Place is basically a full "ability" for your job, you need a bind for it to play properly(you can always half ass it though like most SCHs do)
all useful tips, thanks
Stupid question but does Circle of Scorn deal physical or magic damage
how long does it take to level a retainer from 1-90?
whats the budget for 80-90 crafters? without gridning bicolor gems, just estimates
offd
I would assume physical since its a PLD skill
Hun, more than I thought
can i buy fish in bicolor? im planning to lvl CUL
how do i set right click+key for a keybind?
What does lv 3 shared fate give?
right clicking doesnt seem to register
What rare stuff can you buy?
And PLD is not known for their magical damage. They don't really have the stats for it
No don’t think so
It’s physical
Fit it in the FoF buff
PLD does quite some Magical damage now
All the magic phase stuff is magical
Scales off Strength tho
Strength Magic
Pretty long. I don't have exact numbers, but iirc it takes around 4 quick ventures to level up. So 360 quick ventures, which would be 360 hours or 15 days. Though that would assume, that you are triggering them every hour at the exact second, which you won't
is there really only one fisher secondary hand, I can't seem to find a second one
whats the easiest way to lvl my crafter from 80 to 90?
Leves
leves, collectables, studium deliveries (if you haven't already completed that particular studium)
daily gc turn ins, and custom deliveries
yes just the one
what's the point of undraw for ast? how is it different from just waiting and drawing a new one?

Hello, why does my survival manual keeps of turning off, even its not on expired time yet? just teleported back to sharlayan. and its off already
? how many of this dont stalk a person quest are there so far i got 2 ?
Endwalker MSQ? I hope you like not stalking people :D
they turn off when you gain a specific amount of exp. The description of the manual should tell you its exp limit
lol its first started the girl in green and then the Azure woman so im want to know many of those quests are cause this is very very annoying
omg, so i shouldnt buy it while leveling 80-90 miner?
You still should, they're helpful
they also have a limit on how much bonus exp they can grant
basically once it grants you bonus exp up to a certain limit, they turn off
they're still useful from 80-90 if you're just grinding it out
okey thanks for the info guys
BRD ST song rotation starts with Mage's or Wanderer's?
Where do I get level 90 gear for botanist?
43 - 34 - 43
Why is Mage's 34 and not 43 like the other two
what materia do lvl 90 plds put on their i570 gear?
I have a question. Say if all the DPS are the same class Will the gear of that class spawn more than the other DPS gear since all the DPS’s are the same class
Anyone have a link to an updated Summoner leveling rotation?
Similar to the BLM sheet
So there’s just bad RNG then because this summoner too won’t drop from this raid
11 runs and it still doesn’t drop
Is it a leveling dungeon
No. Nier raid
ew
craft it, buy from the mb if you don't have crafter or get purple scrip gear but you only can get left side
from bard questions in the balance, MB is 30s because its similar to AP, in that its weaker song on single target
So when fate mobs have different letters... is this known as anything that I can google easier?
Can anyone tell me what is rdps ndps adps?
Yea I’m tired of doing this raid
!faq fflogsdps
- neutral DPS (nDPS) is: Your TotalDPS minus the damage from buffs you received
- RaidDPS (rDPS) is: Your TotalDPS minus the damage from buffs you received plus the damage from buffs you contributed
- Personal DPS (pDPS) is: Your TotalDPS without being adjusted for buffs.
- adjusted DPS (aDPS) is: Your TotalDPS minus single target buffs applied to you (devilment, dragon sight, astro cards, etc)
its part of the game's targetting system. whenever you get into combat with a mob, they are tagged with a letter. really doesn't mean/do much these days
like if you want people to attack a specific target, could say attack "a"
gotcha. I just know some are bosses that are really hard and some are bosses that are a joke. I didn't know if it denoted difficulty at all
what a clusterf lol
ty sir
So I guess rdps is the best metric
is there a guide on how arcanist works now?
@pure pecan its fun, you summon a thing and it changes your abilities depending on which thing you summoned. way less dull than it used to be. cant say for SMH/SCH yet
ok that can probably give me the rundown ig, completely changed from when i last logged on lol
Ya its nothing like old acn, im lvling it right now
i'm level 66 and need to be level 67, where do I go to level up?
My challenge log says I need to do leves with different plates - how do I distinguish plates / find leves with different plates?
Bardam's Mettle
? - thats a dungeon, not a leve
People will PVP each other to death for which metric matters
But yeah rDPS... is a thing
were you referring to me?
oops yeah
I was gonna say.. haha I think they meant to reply to you yeah
just need to look at the little image in the upper right hand corner when you're talking with the levemete npc
ooh - any way to track the ones I've already done? (I need 5 different ones, after all)
unfortunately, just have to use your own memory for that
does the date for your next monthly sub payment move based on the number free days they give or how does the free days work with regards to the billing cycle
Do trade craft mentors give exp bonus to sprouts? Or does that only apply to combat mentors

anyone happen to know the micon command for the gatherer/crafter job icons
i was using job stones but that doesn't work for crafters and gatherers
/micon "botanist" classjob I think?
dumb question, but how do people have different kinds of poses and stuff in their pictures?
that was it, thanks
just missing the classjob argument
emotes
unofficially, cmtools and anamnesis
but those r allowed tho right
okok
Since they allow you to manipulate the bones of the model itself, or something
DO NOT CLICK IF NOT AN AST
||im confused about this skill, what are Astrosigns?||
each cards gives a sign
i mean...is that really spoiler tag worthy
yeah it isn't
it's just a tooltip lol
it's a lvl 50 skill too not a 90 one
@robust crowi've been threatened with bans multiple times here so i'd rather be safe. i spoilertag everything
is there maint tonight and soon ?
~20h
it's a tooltip, not a story spoiler
but oh well
They're from your cards
anyway as I said it's cards
does it have to be used on someone else? I'm not getting one when i use it on myself
