You gain the Astrosigns for Astrodyne when using cards from Draw/Play while in combat
have to be in combat
ahh ok. im just sitting at the entrance of an unsync dungeon lol
hit a dummy/monster then you'll start getting signs, can't get them in town and stuff
cool thx ill go check that out
Balance/Bole give you a Solar astrosign, Spear/Ewer give you a Lunar astrosign and Arrow/Spire give you a Celestial astrosign
so you have to get 1 of each like divination used to work?
Which are indicated above your job gauge by a sun, crescent moon and full moon icon
Yep
well you don't have to, it's just personnal dmg
oh just for me? boo lol
you should try to get 3, if you can't then whatever, if you do you can try to hold until next divination if it doesn't waste cards
Three of the same Astrosign gives you a nerfed Lucid Dreaming effect, two unique Astrosigns give you a nerfed Presence of Mind effect and having all three Astrosigns gives you 5% increased damage and healing
Divination is just a straight +6% now
All three effects last for 15s
yeah it doesn't seem worth the bother to micromanage it honestly
Is there no lvl 50 craftable needle? All the other tools and offhands seem accounted for.
Seems to jump from Electrum at 48 to Mythrite at 52.
Correct. ARR endgame primary tools were all upgrades of the one you get from the class quests
And like one other from a token exchange
I am getting "Unable to complete version check" error. Are servers under maintance?
Nope.
Ok
...I'm just now realising that it is just the offhands. Don't know how I missed that before.
So y'all know how you hit like 12 on a new class and then you're out of hunt logs and class quests but still need to hit 16 for leveling roulette
What's the best way to bridge that gap?
Also how do I unlock and utilize Squadrons?

Hey guys. what is the go-to dps meter add on for this game?
should be able to get to like 13-14 with the hunting log, you can do the full 11-20 log, after that fates+maybe guildhest roulette
Hello; just to clarify
ARR beast tribe, for me to get Allied rank, I must have completed all quests for all 4 ARR Beast tribes? (Amaljaa, Kobold, Sahagin, and Sylph) (basically be TRUSTED to proceed to ALLIED) ?
I might as well, since I'm farming for Second Anima Weapon.
Piety to comfort, Crit >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Det >= DH
any suggestion for help on learning how to improve my dps?
Thanks Tessia. Will do it at a latter time then, Ixali will not help me in my Anima Weapon
as far as resources and such go
https://github.com/FFXIV-ACT/setup-guide
if you bother other players in the game with information from this plugin you may be reported and banned
Without any sort of baseline comparison the most anyone can offer is the general stuff:
- always be casting; making sure you're constantly rolling your GCD is, like, 80% of improving DPS
- check out The Balance for optimal rotations and gearing (important: since the expac is so new, things may be a bit weird for a while yet, so keep checking back as things get revised and new content drops)
- practice rotations at a target dummy to build muscle memory, so when you're mid-fight you're not trying to remember what the next skill is
- learn your fights
Yeah got warned about it in the main discussion chat lol. Just want to use it for myself. Thanks man
is zadnor better for lvling alts?
How do I get fieldcraft demimateria iii? the item exchange requires water hardened hippogryph strap but crafting that requires the fieldcraft demimateria so seems kinda redundant
It gives good XP, Zadnor. Heck even Bozjan. You get poetics too.
desynthing gear
For The gospel of Anima
is bozjan and zadnor roughly the same?
Same for experience, Zadnor gives more mettle.
what kind of gear?
Where I can buy more glamour prisms?
since it's fieldcraft, high level gathering gear. can also buy it for 200 white scrips from scrips vendors
Mb?
Thank you!
@uncut quarry https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Fieldcraft_Demimateria_III has examples on which gear has a chance to give it on desynth. note the chance is not very high
would waiting for scrip exchange be better then?
it's more of a sure thing if you don't already have any
it's a bit silly to get gear just to desynth it
Grr. No reaper rotations or anything there yet. Hah
Yep, still really early in the expac. People are still puzzling out numbers and shit.
Hmm. Well, log analysis I think shows I did good with my ABC, and just a few clipped ogcds. I wonder, just how big of difference do combat potions make?
'optimal rotations' are not that big of an improvement on your dps anyway. if you're always casting and don't let your cooldowns sit unused, and stack cooldowns together where possible with yourself and raid, you're already doing close to ideal damage
even if you use a cooldown suboptimally it might take minutes until enough time accumulates so you miss out on one use of a cooldown
Hmm. I'll have to look more into what the problem is, then. In ff logs the ndps for reapers on ex trial 1 50th percentile is around 6k. I'm sitting at 5.5 and I'd like to get up to that 6k.
The core of optimization is aligning your big attacks with buffs
Which is designed to be 60s and 120s
And since my biggest window comes around the 40s mark for the 1st window, I likely have zero party buffs enhancing it, hmm.
er, around the 20s mark
Which is what?
shroud form and communio
I have seen people post rotations
so maybe I should look into trying to get that out sooner.
To line their stuff on 60s and 120s
Look them up on YouTube
And here
!faq balance
I'll look into that discord and check around to see what I can find for that, thank you.
From what I saw so far
You do arcane circle right away, and after 3 GCD (I think) you plentiful harvest into Enshroud, this should get you into the initial buff
Then blah blah blah, and you will be able to get 1 and a half Enshroud inside the big buff in 120s
Anyone have a clock or timer icon name to use on a timer macro?
I will have to toy around with that. Is that only going to be a dps increase in full parties due to party buffs, I wonder? I usually try to burn gluttony and both charges of soul slice before my enshroud, but that could be a mistake.
Don't need to burn two soul slice immediately
Sorry, how do I add LT and ET on my clocks? I have seen some who have it.
Gathering intensifies.
Just use one, and let it go on cooldown, as long as you don't let it sit on 2 full charge
Hmm ok
it should be a default option in hud options
what armor is the biggest upgrade for a dps when buying with the new currency?
@viscid lake when you edit a macro, right click on the icon, and see if you can find a clock icon there (I can swear there's one)
Ayyy I was looking at SYSTEM CONFIG; will check it later on.
hud options are in character config
@shrewd drum weapon > chest >= legs > others > accessories
i think chest has exact same amount of stats as legs
I didn't see that part, IDK, I'm blind. I'll check it out shortly, Caspian; thank you.
Thanks, do you think it's worth skipping the weapon and hoping to get it from EX or still buy it.
@oblique quest gluttony can be delay ever so slightly, it is on 60s cooldown
Oh there is too, thanks.
A small 5-10s delay in the opener is fine if it doesn't end up with one less usage of gluttony
@boreal tree dont have the game open but i found this screenshot, look at the top part of it https://img.finalfantasyxiv.com/lds/uiguide/na/92/55dfad57b12301ff783963f3c1818518cd09a2.jpg
weapon from 89 ex is 580
Ohh under UI settings. Gotcha gotcha; thanks, Caspian.
If you want to play it safe, you can buy a weapon then farm 89 ex
If you are pretty confident of yourself, just grind 89 for weapons directly
Please take note 89 ex weapons is gonna last at least 2.5 weeks, depending where you stand, buying weapon with tomestone now to grind 89 ex weapon can be a worthwhile investment
Only 2 weapons (3 depending on how you count it) beats 89 ex
could last you a while longer if you don't want to overmeld
we'll see how many normal raid drops you need for tome weapon but that's 7.5weeks at the ShB rate
Astronomy weapon (590, takes 7 weeks to get one)
Augmented astronomy weapon (600, need item drop from savage raid + 590 astronomy)
Pandemonium weapon (605, savage raid drop)
If you play multiple jobs, definitely grind for 89 ex
well guess 7 weeks now cause it's tomorrow
Buy a weapon for one job, then use that job to grind away with 89 ex
(I'm not ignoring you, F, I am simply not familiar with diadem)
is there a lfg page in this discord
considering crafter ishgardian xp turns to pumpkins after 80, i think gathering is also fine to 80
My preference is doing doh/l stuff while queueing for dungeon with dps
I'd still do crystarium deliveries and beast tribes to get some variety from diadem
It can get really tedious
Custom deliveries also, the scrips are nice to have
just do all crafter content and you wont have to worry about levels
job quests, custom deliveries, grand company deliveries, beast tribes
I made at least 1M from selling materia I got from deliveries quests scrips
It's really profitable
that doesn't sound right to me
I made 100m from "I bet other crafters will not be bother to fly here to gather these for 1 craft"
So I did
unless you're selling X materia? IX ones are dirt cheap
no they arent
why tf is the post-ARR questline
giving me lv 90 weapon coffer
when i'm only lv 50

Do i need fisher gears for 10k ocean fishing ?
It is item level
item level 90
As in the power level of the gear
oh
in a 9 minute fight you could use 2 combat potions, right? Do we know in general what % of your dps they are estimated to make up?
item level is different from character level
that's not dirt cheap considering how much you can farm

Where is the Calamity Salvager in Gridania
Mih khetto where the post moogle is
North of the amphitheater
Which menu has race gear in it or is that a different vendor
Different vendor
Don't ask me about Uldah or Gridania, but in Limsa, you want the lalafell south east of the main aetheryte
so are exploratory missions acessed through duty finder?
I've always avoided it because it looks like palace of the dead optional content
Apparently you can get 4 person mount on savage though...
from the savage raid at the end of bozja yeah, but it takes a lot of setup and coordination, and the discords that run it might be more or less dead during a new expansion launch
what do i burn my white scrips on now 
IS THIS BOZJA STUFF FOR RELIC?
just to double check, the bonus exp from preorder earring is just for monster kills, not fate exp/bozja exp
resistance weapon = relic?
maybe lower grade materia for penta melding? I don't know, I'm not too experienced with that.
Yes
lmfao thanks
But bozja is also good for grinding level,
Between 71-80
no clue, I didn't do bozja, sorry
Zekk once you can talk to the guy to get into bozja (just a name, no title. . . maybe starts with S?) then you can do Bozja. I don't think it required doing the quest.
Are you able to get into Gangos yet?
yes
When my gear "breaks" do my stats reflect that by getting lower or do stats not change?
Can you speak to Sjeros and enter bozja?
its as though you arent wearing any gear
yes but will my values go down too?
Ok so with broken gear, if I have X Gathering for example, I can rely on that number still as being accurate so I know I'm over/under a threshold
Yes
im not sure ill have to check later
if i can tho, im just gonna stop where im at
Your stat will correctly reflect what you actually have right now
Including broken gear (missing stat)
Or food buff (more stat)
I remember doing the first quest that just hands you a weapon, and after that I could go in by talking to Sjeros (who is very near where you port into Gangos)
Does anyone know where to get this weapon?
bluespirit should be crafted
white gear
Thank you
Nice catch.
hey folks, is there a better way to grind through 61-70 than dungeons?
!faq altlvlguide
If your job is tank or healer, then dungeons are your best choice
oh perfect thanks!
Dps, dungeons is still good unless the queue to get into one is 15m longer than other choices
Hi, I have been wondering for sometime how everyone is wearing unique gear such as jeans and hoodies in the game?
big help! thanks dude. no-lifed my way from arr to ew with one job and now im looking to level an alt 🙂
When I have a glamour plate set up does it cost glamour prisms to apply the plate to my gear?
Nope
There's a lot of clothes that have unique looks like that, and are glamoured over their actual equipment.
It doesn't? 
Putting the gear into glamour dresser will have a one time glamour prism cost
poggers
Using the gear inside glamour dresser: either a direct glam to a gear you currently wear or using it in making a plate, cost nothing
Casual Jacket is an example of a hoodie, you can get it from the Ishgard Firmanent kupo tickets.
when should i use blackest knight ? for incoming tankbusters only ?
I know the role quests for Endwalker gave dyeing the level 89 gear. I don't believe it was part of the MSQ though. I don't have a source sorry.
so using the glamour on that jacket will make it look like a hoodie?
Try to make sure that the tbn shield will break, to get the most value out of it
for dungeons i guess only in combination with rampart for example ?
Endwalker role quests are required if you wish to be able to dye your class's artifact gear.
Other than that, I have no idea what you mean without some actual context.
Rampart, obl-something, shadow wall, or even by itself
The Casual Jacket itself is the hoodie. You would use a glamour prism to glamour the Casual Jacket onto your chest equipment slot. Or turn it into a glamour plate to easily put it over any chest armor you're wearing.
Depending on how much you need to mitigate
do migis stack ?
Oh I see thx
!action troubadour
Thanks, Morph; sorry I mean, in the MSQ, you can do without it.
Unlike SHB where you have to do it in order to progress.
I can do it at a latter time then.
Yep.
like rampart plus shadow wall = -50%. but should i do that. is there a case where a single migi is not enough ?
oh i thought it`s like -20 + (-30). i see
Same here, I asked this a while ago
is there a situation where i actually have to stack them ?
i try to have a migi on all the time
when i stack them i ran out maybe
Yeah, that's good generally
When can you start bozja 70 or 71 ?
Stacking is required if the attack will kill when you don't, which doesn't occur very often
71
71
ok tyvm!
Where can I obtain The Emperor's New ___ gear if I don't feel like buying it off the MB?
Mor Dhona
ah just realized healers lost bind :/
what are DRKs pro side ? i heard PLD is a good healer too and WAR can do pretty decent dmg
that is not right. he is the most badass looking one at least 
i just love purple and dark-red effects
DRK has the most amount of cool sword, imo, compared to other tanks
yes!
Easy top 3 compared to all jobs, imo
But gameplay and mechanical wise, nothing really stands out
i like to use abyssal drain for big pulls. instant heal if i see my hp going down
this is crazy
Abyssal drain was much better
oh really.
But you need to augment it with dark Art (different skill back then, it is kinda like sage's eukrasia) to get health recovery
i can augment actions ?
That's gone since Stormblood
oh 
Heavensward and Stormblood dark knight can use an ability called dark Art to boost most of their weaponskill
Usually it is a simple potency boost
Where is the vendor for Emperor's New ___ gear in Mor Dhona
But some weaponskill gain additional effect
Another example, old carve and spit: no DA, recovers MP. DA, deals damage.
isnt that one in vesper bay
@dire prawn use Garlandtools (website) to check

And shield is gold saucer
if im rank 7, would bozja for 80-90 still be the fastest? or is it too much time unlocking zadnor?
you're 1 rank away from unlocking the rest of BSF, and while its not quite as good from 80-90 its still a decent option for leveling
ty for answer, ill try it out 🙂
how much tiome they usually have between expacs ? 2 years ?
ye
shb to ew was 2.5 due to covid
but hopefully it should be back to 2 years
not too much, since things only upgrade by 5 ilvls
in most cases, yes
Where can i do Palace of the dead?
quarymill
how long would it take to get from lvl 75 to 80 as a SMN running only dungeons? :o
prolly 7 hours?
Grendania?
ok thanks paragon :o
ah no more like 5 with the armory buff @olive heath
thank you :o
its like 2 or 3 runs per level? so 1hr per lvl + q times... seems about right
Is there a way to see how big your shields are?
that buff really knocks off 2 hours ? thats decent for ssure
its 50% extra xp up to 100% extra
so yeah
pretty good
def. id say
Are these 2k+ que times like in mid day normal for expansion releases? This is my first time experiencing an FFXIV expansion release lol
WOW died hard and an expansion came out so at the moment yea, they are working on it though!
no, endwalker is simply too good, everyone wants to play
Adding new servers, giving rewards for subs as a "sorry"
Broadly speaking
not actual numbers
📈
they cant keep up w/ demand atm
Too much hype... I think the next big player surge is going to be the 21st and the servers won't be as bad in january
does WHM Asylum only grants the healing over time once per target per cast?
Damn lol
No
Why the 21st?
You can re enter the bubble while it's up
big patch
Tomorrow is not a big patch
Ahh
Yea, before Endwalker because of WOW releasing a new expansion (everyone hates it) they had a similiar situation to what you're saying rn
oh is it the 28th?
tomorrow is just the first tier of pandae right?
@warm snow that works for all bubbles, right? exit and enter before they expire to get more HoT?
idk I think a lot of people will be logging on for the raid asap
You have to stay in the bubble to maintain it
oh, i read the tooltip and it said 24s so i assumed the hot stayed for 24s -_-
Yes and no, savage raids are a lot more important and come with the new crafted gear
Hello I have a question about Mog Station..I can’t change my GBP to Euro. Can you help me with that?
The bubble lasts 24s
ya as long as your in bubble it heals, once your out, the heal tick stops
Eh... so im trying to renew my subscription cause it ended 2 days ago... and it said I succfully renewed it... goto log in, and says i dont have a sub. Goto my bank account, says ive been charged $1 from square enix lol
Do i just gotta... wait longer than usual? Ive never had to wait for my sub to activate
What is error 601 when I try to make the payment?
Also, whats that $1 charge for🤣
Because I have new Debit card and when I do everything right step by step it shows me that error
to check if u actually put in a valid card
most services charge 1 dollar to see if it works
Gotcha gotcha, alright. So than, wheres my sub? Lol
How do you know what rank you are on endwalker zones for fate / gemstore trader stuff?
Travel > Shared Fates
Thank you!
If I were to buy endwalker right now on the PS store, would it not let me play it until the whole congestion thing has been sorted out?
Oh.🤦♀️ i forgot to click "next" before i closed out of the internet.

Do you own started edition or the old complete edition?
then you cant buy it
So now they just charged me $1 twice for setting up my card lol, so ibpaid $15 instead of $13 ;( thats alot of pennies
those holds should be refunded
unless your card service is charging a transaction fee
Okay so i logged in, and now it says some shit about... "one or more expansions have yet to be registered"?? I have all expansions... lol

you reg ew code ?
I never got a code? I played a week ago, and never had to input a code of some sort to play
you on pc ?
Yeah
check mogstation
via steam ?
Not steam no
Where
ya check email for code and then mogstation to reg it
Okay wait wtf. It says EW isnt purchased... i was literally playing it.
did you buy it ?
Yes.
You were playing early access
I pre ordered it even
did you reg the code ?
Now you have to enter the normal EW code
Where do i find a code? In my emails somewhere?
either in ur emails or in the square enix store page under my orders
!faq earlyaccess
Alright got it got it, thank you. I never wouldve found that out
ya thazt proccess is pretty janked...
I literally NEVER check my emails so lol
figure reg early access it means you purchased it right. so why make you do again.
Right lol oh well. It works. So could be worse
That ones on you
How does Tales Of Adventure work exactly? They say that it completes all your job quests, but it actually doesn't except the 2 bunch of quests from ShB and EW leveling? What gives
Job quests aren't role quests
And since the ShB ones are part of the story...
That's not part of a job skip
where can I find the download to the ffxiv launcher on mogstation?
my friend wants to play, they already have an account
but we don't know where the launcher is so they can download
!faq download
ty!
Yes the ShB are called role quests, not job quests that's where confusion comes from
It's a job boost, not a role boost
Wait I think you misunderstood what I meant
And also read the rest of what I said
I didn't use job boost, I know how it works
I used story skip, which skips story, that is v much clear
But it does say that it skips "job quests"
Story skips have never completed job quests
And role quests aren't job quests
Fastest way to lvl 80-90?
I mean that is indeed obvious, but they should've clarified that it completes role quests
Dungeons
Because they are not in fact job quests
It only completes ShB role quests because they are part of the story
If a pane of glass etc drops in a box in an instance, does it get added to the loot list like equipment, or just given to the box-opener?
Ok, let me screenshot you something
Random
Fastest way to lvl 80-90?
Is there something like brand-new ring or t he EXP earrings but for gatherers and crafters?
@inland quarry reading chat
No
Wait, actually nevermind, I stand corrected because it does say "quests for designated job"
Tales of Adventure: Shadowbringers will complete all quests for the designated job, up to and including the relevant role quests in Shadowbringers.
Mb didn't read your message because I saw you were talking to someone else and just assumed
Thanks
Can I still get the summers flame?
For some reason in my memory it was ingrained as "job quests" because of "quests for the designated job".
Although it would've been nice, even if it didn't level that job
can you upgrade the moonward gears from 570?
nope
are we going to need the moonward gear to meet the min ilvl for the normal raids?
nah
ilvl required is 555
kewl
(take the eden raid 1-4 ilvl requirement and add 130)
shb af gear is 430, ew af gear is 560
is there a server for treasure hunts?
Ya, I've noticed the 130 ilvl gap between expacs but I think ARR->HW is 140 (130->270) so that threw me off, seems like they're going with 130 moving forward
#resources has a few
I lvl'd a gatherer, but how do I level crafting without dumping cash?
ishgard resto uses diadem mats and mats you can easily gather urself
Best way to improve my right side gear as a non crafter, non savage player..?
Where do you unlock the two extra lv 90 dungeons?
Sharlayan
tomestones
are ilvl 570
Y'Shtola voice: Ah- of course.@modest igloo..
Both are in Sharlayan?
grinding ugh..
Sharlayan is basically our Endgame zone now ? like Eulmore
Thank you!
welcome to not being a raider
Radz is the Eulmore
radz at han is endgame area
I hope P1-4 are interesting
no marketboard
sharlayan is the crystarium
so how much loot can you carry away from raids in a week?

!faq savageloot
Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Tomestone Accessory upgrade
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Tomestone Armor upgrade + Tomestone Weapon upgrade
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion
Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.
Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.
The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests
so tokens can be farmed as much as you like?
how can i wear this on glamour
how do u remove materia
Be a crafter with a level 90 chestpiece
Which is just that and the job-specific chestpiece with scrips

Advanced Combat Tracker (ACT) can be used to view and record combat in real time to see player damage, healing, etc. ACT logs can then be uploaded to FFLogs to compare your performance with other players.
Please note this software is technically against the FFXIV Terms of Service and should only be used for personal improvement. Mentioning ACT/Parsing in-game, particularly to harass other players, is likely to result in punishment against your Square Enix account.

how do u know in which slot which materia can go
The ones that the piece of gear has....
Look at your materia
It has minimum item level requirements
Absolutely nothing to do with slots
what do penalty counts even do from duty finder
3 penalties = 30 minutes DF ban
Hit enough and next penalty locks you out of instanced content for a half hour
This includes solo duties
And shit like bozja, eureka and diadem
does it reset everyday?
I bought a level skip for a summoner class but it hasn’t appeared in moogle delivery yet?
I’ve logged out and back in too
Servers are under sever strain
You were told to allow up to 10 working days
It should take a day at most
This is just them covering their asses
Are new trial accounts still allowed or are they not doing that anymore?
Pins
On 3+ enemies, is it a gain or loss to use Gnashing Fang instead of Fated Circle?
you can just do the math yourself? likely a loss though
what's the red mark supposed to mean?
Iirc it's visitors allowed, go and check
Actually go check so I can confirm, I'm making an educated guess and mid dungeon
What are these max (stacks?) mentioned on the right?
It's a cap on how much it'll increase
it can only give you a total of 6 points, even tho +8% might be more than that
If you have 10000 spell speed you'll still only get 6 more points, not the full +8%
I see, thanks

Full Gnashing Fang + Continuation combo outputs 1980 in about 7.5 seconds on a single enemy, meanwhile Fated Circle outputs 290 in 2.5 seconds. Doing the math, Fated Circle is a gain on 2+ enemies.
So yeah, it's a loss.
hey guys how many here are using the XIVlauncher from https://github.com/goatcorp/FFXIVQuickLauncher/releases/tag/6.1.8 ?
it seems like the normal version of the game still has the error of logging in so is this the only other way to play rather than vpn?
so I bought a piece of clothing from the online store but it still hasn't come through in mail
is this normal
anyone else not able to access support desk in game
It can take up to 24 hours
the servers are incredibly congested
ill check back tmr or smth
So I don't know if it's a bug or not
The game is telling me this when I try to do the ShB hunt quests, when I'm done with all of the MSQ and did the side quest
Just in case I went to do the SB Hunt quests, to no avail
which one do i report this under?
because right click report only gave me RMT options
are u able to view the other tabs
are u sure u unlocked all ishgard hunt quests
!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.
Go do all these first
what other tabs?
in support desk - for me it says unable to retrieve data
Also SB
yes
Is it how do i report an RMT advertisment?
But its like a phishing attempt right?
I was at the wrong place for the first quest, that was the issue
NPC made it seems like he was gonna be the one to give the quest after the requirements
oh weird... i cant view any of mine i wonder why
Ty for the help!
Is it fine for me to take up a new alt job when I reach HW? If yes, then what are the best methods to level up effectively?
as a miner, i want to use king yield every time i gather, how do i regen my gp? is there like potion or something? cordial? im lvl 88 atm
!faw altlevelguide
ugh
!faq altlevelguide
What's the difference between these three settings for this UI element?
im tryna unlock zadnor zone 3 to level chars faster but zone 1 and 2 are completely dead? do people don't know about zadnor at all or does everyone just grind southernfront bozja for small exp? And is there another way to unlock z3 cuz literally can't rank up cuz there is noone to do fates with
people definitely know about Zadnor, as it was tied to the relic weapon grind from last expansion and it's a good source of xp to level up right now
ppl just do z3 only in zadnor though
Do us a favor: go to Social -> Player Search and see how many people are present
it's possible you have a dead instance
and the fates can be done solo easily if they'r enot scaled up(which if you're the only one in the area should be the case)
just use an essence
17 out of 72 gonna try rejoining but it has been this dead like every day i've checked
well it is monday, in the middle of the day
no like i've been checking in every day for like a week now
at what time?
don't know I was there last week there were plenty of ppl, but you don't need full instances though, if the 17 ppl are doing z3 that's plenty to clear fast
most ppl do bsf for lvling

even when there were 40+ no one was doing z1 or z2 though
basically ppl who unlocked zadnor in shb are doing z3, and ppl who didn't do bozjan instead
it's the zone 1 and 2 that is the problem xd like there is literally noone doing it so there is noway to get to zone 3
ah
they should really make a shotcut to zone 3 if noone is playing the content
They have npcs to help solo it
they do?
Just essence and action up and you can solo all of it
ye
yeep its happened again, ping goes nuts with rto everywhere, more or less same time too, wtf is happening
is there an issue w ff14 rn?? like maintenance or sth
!maint
my zadnor instance was almost full at like 10am 🤔
The bojzan resistance npcs assist with zone 1 fates
why is this happening?
idk the command to show maintenance time lol
sameee
The maint command doesn't work here
oh noted
verify files should work
i just re-run it, it works
try keep rerunning it, i had same error as u
sometimes happen when u have packet loss or bad internet
so I'm looking at my Gunbreaker's bars for the first time and rearranging keybinds, and... why the hell is this on my hotbar lol
i have done all of that already
just close and reopen it or restart internet
Do I lose the materia when retrieving?
done that atleast 10 times
6.0 changed stuff
yeah if u fail to retrieve it
it will tell you if there's a chance to lose the materia when retrieving*
Got it, thanks
a menu like this will pop up
^
btw I have no sfx in game? Is that a bug? Should I just restart?
oh so it just put the actions on my Gnashing Fang then as followups, and these are remnants of what I had pre-6.0, when they were standalone keypresses? orrr....
Yes, if you had each action down prior to 6.0 they'll still be there
!action continuation
Allows the firing of successive rounds with your gunblade.
Gnashing Fang may be followed by Jugular Rip.
Savage Claw may be followed by Abdomen Tear.
Wicked Talon may be followed by Eye Gouge.
Burst Strike may be followed by Hypervelocity.
interesting
And you'll need to remove them
Now that turns into them, right?
Gnashing turns into them
neat
continuation is still there as an additional button, but instead of doing 456 for gnashing combo, it's just 444
makes sense
I've never done anything with GNB before these last few minutes with a training dummy
hence why I wasn't sure
but thank you!
I still havent gotten my pizza emote email....
if i materia a piece of gear do i lose it?
???
same as u man
the materia is only lost if it says you're going to lose it, Hamy
im jus waiting since yesterday
bump: this, when retrieving
it will also tell you if you have a chance to lose it when putting it in when certain conditions are met (overmelding)
ok and if it doesnt say that i can justr remove it and put it in something else?
yes
ok thabnks
no way
apparently someone on reddit says vpn fixed the issue
but idk, mine didn't work, i used tunnel bear
Question about EW role quest, ||do they not reward you with job-specific gear set? Where can I find lv 90 job specific gear set then?||
Sharlyean
You unlocked it via msq, game even told you
And you had a long unskippable cutscene for it
yeah, yesterday during night time i tried then failed, so now im here again trying to no avail
level 89 gear comes from the vendor at 11.7 9.9 in Shar
vpn or external launcher would work i heard people say but i tried the external launcher and it didnt work for me
The EW role quests make the job gear dyeable.
maybe I haven't unlocked it? I haven't reach area 6, still in area 5
You get it just before going to zone 6
it's before the 89 dungeon
The last quest or two before going to the last zone open up the vendor with the job gear
And before the 89 dungeon
but imagine having to do so much shit just to log into the game. bruh i already paid the price for it and now they want me to add this add that
how would i clear castrum lacus ltore? Do i actually just have to wait for a CE to spawn?
I am aware of the quick synthesis option but is there an option to stop the window from closing after every crafted item?
It's very telegraphed when it's unlocked
Oooh I see I see, very soon then. I just finished trial 2. Thanks!
Its not ffxiv fault that ur internet provides seems to have issues
Just got to alpha omega stuff, does this need to be done for the story to progress?
It's the reason why the 89 dungeon only drops accessories
complaining here ad infinitum isn't going to do anything to fix the problem
my internet works fine
After crafting, you should return to where you were in the crafting log
Wait, maybe I miss it. Lemme check again
Anyone know why this is happening? It worked yestuday
That’s not what they said.
It was the long cutscene waiting for taturu
yeah, i tried multiple ways of fixing it already plus im replying to the guy with the same issue. is it not ok to have a little bit of frustration?
Issues like this are most likely to be an issue with your ISP route between your network and the game servers
like bro im not even talking to you then just mind ur business?
This isn’t a rants channel
Is there an option to stop that?
who do you think you are criticising ff?
Or a place to argue
No, nor is there any reason to keep the crafting window up
idk how those work or how to fix it, i already posted a qn on the subreddit so im just waiting
this channel is for getting questions answered.
criticism is allowed, just not here
No criticism zone, pack it up lads
the subreddit is not official nor do devs or customer support agents look at it. like lyon said, this is a problem with your isp and not the game.
#rants is over there.
Criticise in other channels, bait not in this server.
I see, thanks
||When the eorzean alliance arrives with the refined adamantite? or before trial #2? ||
The former. You flat out get told you can get stuff free from a particular vendor. There's your clue.
||No, after that is another cutscene||
Abit after, ||Waiting for taturu to open and you talking to different npcs that show up||
oh i do know rant channel exists, but im literally replying to a guy talking to me in this channel wtih sentences already typed out above, so idt i can type my opinion on "this method doesnt work for me" here and then move to rant channel and vent myself
What the... How the heck did I miss that lol
Same way literally like 60-70% of people missed it
cutscene fatigue? 🙂
That is a wildly exaggerated figure
The game quite literally grabs your hand and says buy this gear
yeah i just posted a qn in the megathread, idk if anyone is gonna share the same problem or have an option to fix it but i just posted it
More like grabs your hand and says "here's free gear for you to have, just take it!"
Maybe lol! ||I remember after they all came together, Forchenault talks to the twins and then guide us to face trial #2 I can't remember that particular scene :(||
Wait, sorry I think I haven't reach that part yet 😂 I log off just right after trial #2
Cool thanks! I was doing role quest and wondering why the final reward is not job specific gear like the other expansion. Anyway I'll unlock it soon enough, thanks again~
Role quests are completely optional now
Just got to alpha omega stuff, does this need to be done for the story to progress?
No
No, if you have trial 2 unlocked you have to have access to the gear. You get access to it right before the 89 dungeon.
No, but it's referenced in endwalker
Ty
its not possible to server hop right?
hi everyone, i am looking for an addon for party frame, but not one that is a total Ui one like Zeff, do someone know something?
Mind you, just about everything gets referenced in EW.
I'm guessing I need all the delta rune pins cogs ect for later too?
No
Not at current due to congestion, no.
That's for old outdated gear
Rip
i need help :(((
please
i bought the wrong endwalker
and how do i buy the eu cersion
version
im not in eu
but my acc is
!faq buy
Always follow your account region
You could message square support about it
If you haven't expose the code, you can ask for refund
how
Ask squenix
idk how
.
and i dont see
Why can't I wear my patricians bottoms. All classes lvl 50. I am lvl 50
Your pants aren’t 50
And the gear you're wearing?
Can't polish a turd
Can't make shit look nicer than it is
Omg the gear has to be lvl 50 lol
With a Level 90 Gatherer, what is the new best way to gather Crystals ?
Aetherial reduction
aka. what Aether Reduction is granting the most rn
Which isn’t new
Yo so like I reset my pc a little ago but didn’t download ffxiv again but got a ps5 that has it downloaded, does it play fine on console or should I stick to pc?
I was told that the console has like a delay or something like that but idk
It is optimized for PS5 so yes that should be no problem at all
You nerd both licences
What are the cheapest lvl 50 bottom armor then? Lol
Otherwise you're fine
Whatever you've been ignoring from your job quests
No studdering or anything like that?
I highly doubt it

Plenty of people clear ultimates and the like on console, it'll be fine
I’ll get back to you thanks
My last job quest gave me a 45lvl. And the next one will only give me the top. No other armor
You didn’t do the 50 quest
Double check those rewards
And then go do your job quest
The level 50 quest gives a coffer that has item level 90 gear in it.
Garland Tools tells me the only way to reduce to Wind Crystals is old Heavensward Stuff
I don't think I am gonna get better bottoms for a long time
^
Please read what Wynne just said
Garland tools isn’t up to date on aetherial reduction stuff.
Ok lol. I was just excited to finally wear those pants. Damn
While I can’t tell you which SB/SHB/EW ephemerals give wind element, HW ephemerals have been noted to give a higher quantity.
Yeah that "first" Job set is 45 and just a gift so you do not suck in the Level 50 dungeons back when the game was released --- they later added ILevel 90 "Artifact Gear" to the Level 50 Job Quest to give you a further boost so you do not need to farm gear

ok i got it
but one thing
when i try to buy eu version it keep redirecting me to us site
It shouldn’t
Is there a sweetspot to aim for with my Collectability if I want to get Crystals specifically? I just got 30 clusters and 20 crystals and I would rather have 150 crystals
Max out as much as possible
I don’t think it works that way
!faq dolcollect
Technically outdated, but the rotation should still be the same
haven't done reducibles in forever but back a while ago you wanted to actually keep them low to get crystals, high would get clusters, and about 60-70% was the sweet spot for sands, but no idea how it works now
Lvl 60 stuff looks like it’s best to get crystals, list probably isn’t updated but ehh
today is not my day
why are my settings not backed up
like i uploaded from my ps4
and i just tried to download on my pc
but nothing happen
T-T
Uh, if it's UI settings you have to backup and restore it manually if you're trying to play in different devices
So I just finished potd lvl 100 and after trying to go further now it says dungeon already cleared? How can I go to further floors?
Also iirc you have to have 0 record of wiped out before 100?
And 0 wipes
whats client settings
Character config
There's 2 backups, one for system config, one for character config
Ui shit is character config
guys where is the setting that helps with shukichi
do custom deliveries scale with doh/dol lvl in xp? so like going doing work for either kai shirr or mnaago is about the same
yes
ok thanks
these?
ye thx
How many totems do you get per ex run? Also is it work getting all 570 accessories or just go for 580?
1
usually 1, current ones are 1
Unless it’s a long fight, they give 2
and I wouldn't get 570 anything besides maybe weapons, and a ring cause you can only use one of the 580 rings until normal raid(meh) or crafted
is sigmascape 4 savage unsync done fast?
Yo so I’m trying to log in ffxiv on ps5 but it won’t let me change my username
Not really, you still need to do mechanics and it's 2 phases
It's tied to your psn account
Oh
But it should be easier with curr BiS gear unsynced
You're still gonna have to do mechanics
It dies.fast
And you can't skip phases
But mechanics will auto kill you on failure
Do they still have that healing mech in current bis?
Cause 999999900 dmg
ah I see
I assume so as not many are unsync ing cuz too much ew shit to do
Sigma is 8
Kefka
oh, o8s
And 4s still wiped the unprepared
that still shouldn't be that bad now
Forsaken and all
sigmascape v4.0
what's paladin's not die button called?
which one? They have a few.
Hallowed
hallowed ground is their invuln
oh apparently you're supposed to report those people who invite you to the 300mil gil raffle through report RMT
k thx
In terms of efficiency and saving time, which class is best for using a job boost on: Paladin, Bard, or Summoner? Like if I want to avoid having to hassle through many lvls of quests and skills to learn and just reach 80 easy
smn includes sch
so 2 for the price of 1
Fair
anybody knows how to use targeted abilities inside cities?
purely for group pose stuff
I would think you can't? but gpose will use the last skill used even if it wasn't in the same zone iirc? so you can go outside, hit something, then come back and use that pose, could be wrong though I don't do much gpose
it resets it from what ive checked
maybe i did it wrong but meh 😔
oh also speaking of group pose, any way to mod it for free camera movement?
I just notice my sub run out today, and has renewed it. Will I get disqualified for the extra 14 sub days?
na you're right doesn't seem to work so not sure how ppl do it then
You should be fine as the cutoff hasn't hit yet, but don't quote me on that.
Hey lads. I would like to come back to the game soon. Is it true that if I sub back now, I will get two extra weeks of game time?
there is (checks clock) seventeen hours remaining to make sure you have remaining game time
Ah, alright. Thanks!
I will sub back now then :D
tomorrow's update is 6.05 right? Normal raid content?
oh lol
6.05 is savage, tomes and crafted
ooooooh ic ic ok tnx!
anyone getting unable to complete version check error?
i hear people talking about normal mode. . .normal mode of what?
Oh I see. New raid. Very nice.

im trying to solo nidhogg extreme anyone can give me tips for when he summons the adds? they do so much dmg and have a lot of health
paladin
btw
Probably just save your Requie burst for it
yeah the magic aoe dot should help a bit
hello peps, is there any place where I can check mnk rotation for low levels?
https://appuals.com/how-to-fix-ffxiv-unable-to-complete-version-check/
Someone posted that earlier. Not sure if it helps or not but I figured I'd link it until someone else answers.
Funds captured? By what? Road pirates?
merlwyb slacking off
It was refunded but im over here like damn its that exclusive rn xD
I pre-ordered in June and didn't realize I was supposed to confirm the order before release so I was just buying it and well
They told me to gtfo
anyone know why this effect ended before the 18 hours went by? I literally activated less than 1 hour ago
You probably switched to another buff
See the bracketd
"up to a maximum of X xp points"
That's also another thing, if you're a high level you can max that out quick
@open nimbus you can buy more at the scrip exchange
I'm off to it 😄 gonna grind
When are new master recipes for raid gear dropping?
Savage
4th jan
Are Studium Deliveries weekly locked like Custom Deliveries?
