the answer to your question: ||lv70 alliance raids||
Oh, actually the ??? is just for map locations that aren't otherwise classified. Like instances.
But yeah, right now Ivalice is the only thing in there.
wait if i did ivalice it still wouldnt be revealed?
how do I increase the mount speed? I saw on youtube that you need to buy a map from the company guy, but he dont sell
no because ivalice lies in ???
Yep. I just checked. It's the same for me and I've done Ivalice a lot
Finish the MSQ for the zone, then get flying. Flying is the fastest riding speed.
You can get faster ground riding speed, but it's not worth the time or effort, mostly.
The new housing opens tomorrow right?
is it in 6.1 when we can exchange totems for ex trial 1 and 2 mounts?
thanks!
...I knew I had forgotten a question earlier.... that's what I wanted to ask lmao
that comes in 6.1, not 6.01
no, 6.2
can AF gear be stored in the armoire or something?
only the first AF set
™️
so just delete it after upgrading basically? :v
or use for glamour if you like them
If you don't want to keep it for glamour, sure.
Unless you like the look of it, there's no reason to keep it
Just buy more retainers, it's fine
chocobo saddlebag can fit a few sets
like 14 sets of AF gear
assuming I'm not stupid and did my math right
nice I did do it right
okay so this is sort of a meta-ish question regarding this channel specifically: can opinion questions be asked or do they all need to have an objective answer of some sort? like if I wanted to get opinions on what to level next or whatever
ask an opinion question get an opinionated answer
fair enough, I expected as much but wasn't sure if it was okay to ask here or if it would better fit #general-discussion or something
that being said....
what should I level next? lmao
literally a better healer in dungeon pulls than actual healers
LOL
"DRK mains hate him"
I guess my main issue when I was leveling WAR was that the cone aoe bothered me a lot
I like easy mode aoes that I don't have to be on a specific target for lol
Dragoon's straight lines irritate me too
but they can be overlooked
I was planning to main the tank role this expansion, so I was probably going to prioritize leveling those
so I guess WAR is what I'll be working on next
Does today's maintenance patch have a chance for early finish or it 100% goes all the way?
zilch, because you can't buy a house there
oh it hasn't dropped yet?
we have no idea and won't know until it happens
6.1 in a few months
Ishgard housing comes with 6.1 (and tonight's patch is for 6.01)
hmmm is it anticipated to be about the same as mansions in other regions?
so something like 50M?
Really? We can use shadowbringers as a benchmark?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
absolutely nothing about this expansion launch has been remotely like shadowbringers
Robot, if you had to pick between DRK and GNB to do after WAR, what would you personally do?
and why?
yeah that's literally the theme /s
is it known yet or has been said if multiple people can bet on a housing placard in the next patch? or is it only the FC leader
there is a chance yeah, usually it does probably end early. since there is no housing to add.
and your second aoe attack at 72
and it has that magic-only miti as well 
it is a dumpster fire to level
i would not recommend it
in anything except like, alliance roulette
Is it possible to make a hotbar only appear when on a specific job?
kind of
you can make the hotbar slots not show unless there's something in that slot
and then just not put anything there on that job
Ah, smart
I'm not able to hop on the game rn to find that setting for you
Thank you!
but I can look to find it online for you rq
I know the setting, I just didn't think of doing that
hotbar sharing
I think they mean the bar itself not the abilities on the bar
which is why i sent both
Is there a way to hide the padlock icon?
It's now just kind of there floating in mid-air
It's not a big deal, just.. If it's possible to hide it, that'd be nice lol
I want to assume that's the "Enable drag-and-drop repositioning" (because that's what the lock is for) but idk
nope can't hide the padlock
besides the new raids what are they adding in the new patch?
Nothing
bugfixes
potentially basic levels of balance
Maybe some food and tinctures but for all intents and purposes nothing new is being added
where is the new token vedors for 90 gear?
Maybe some new craftable primal weapons cuz those are 100% no pattern
Second city
thavnair?
the city in Thavnair, yes
radz at han
Both
Hi folks! What should I do with my tomestone of poetics? I've maxed them out but the gear that can be bought with them is lower than the tomestone of aphorism gear 😦
equip your alts
What are pixie wings
Do we know when the character renaming service will be back?
Is it a minion or shitty cosmetic
Fair enough! Thank you for the help ❤️
best time to level a tank
if I had to guess, cosmetic @errant mesa
Buy unidentified ore or seeds and exchange them for grade 3 soil
Does the great hunt not drop a loot at the end if unsync?
Fashion accessory, cosmetic
No, not until server strain is under control
When is the deadline for mentorship reapplying?
chest and carvings still drop
since those are interactables, not directly to your inventory
There isnt one
Chest is random?
Chest even spawning is random
but it's not exclusive to sync
just extremely rare
as it only appears if the mouont drops
Aye thx
I'm pretty sure they said in-game but don't remember the exact line. Something about "Until the next patch" but i don't know if its 6.0.1 patch or 6.1
Or poogie
And failing to reapply = No applying until next major patch
what can i do with tomestones asides with buying equipment
Nothing so far
currently only buying equipment
then i guess ima buy 80 stuff for all the classes
!faq poetics
in the past, were new extreme trials added for every major patch? .1, .2, .3?
Yes
ok
why would any1 buy materia IX if VIII is cheaper and higher stats?
Overmeld
Pentamelding
You can't pentameld beyond the first extra meld with even numbered materia
u cant do that with the VIII on 90 gear?
does anyone know when cross server travel is going to drop?
Read your level 8 materia
aaah
!item quickarm materia viii
Hey my friend is giving me money so I can get a house ASAP how much is a small house + plot?
must be a rich friend
And it's a new raffle system to buy them
Small plot is 3mil to 3.75mil, house construction permit is another 450k
The hard part is getting an actual empty plot though
wait a minute, does changing your name in game require money
Yes
even for the first time?
Yes
Unless a gm gives you a free one off name change for having an offensive name
its not offensive thankfully
Also if you transfer to a server and someone already has your name, you get a free change
thats not gonna happen either lmao
@warm driftwhen you say 40 in your own gear you mean spirit bonding same pieces of gear 40 times?
I have the haircut that you can get from the modern aesthetics - great lengths, but im not sure if i bought it before, so If i change my hairstyle should i be able to change it back to it?
You just unlock it period, it’s always available now
Yes
yes
welcome to roulette
a lot more people have CT unlocked given its required by MSQ
well.. thats the easiest to clear for daily rewards so..
the other alliance raids are a bit more rarer
and some people do cheese the roulette by taking off gear to have lower ilvl to get CT raids instead
but the main reason is the fact that pretty much everyone has CT unlocked
its mostly ARR alliances for me too but i got last yorha raid today for example
can blue mage get to 90?
how hard is edens promise savage now that level cap is raised? i started gunbreaker a month ago and im still learning my rotation a bit, and i really want a gunblade from savage
if i dont buy endwalker and stay at 80 level cap, will it matter?
Still very
You can't play reaper or sage but otherwise nothing changed. There's waaaaay fewer player doing that content tho
You can’t wear 90 gear, so yeah if you wanted to Unsync it
do yall just turn in the wondrous tails on the alt class youre focusing on, since teh xp scales with level?
how long do you think it would take me?
You're probably not gonna find a group running it unsynced that'll just let you in at 80
They'll want to skip as much shit as possible so will want all 90s
Hello, my dad who never really played video games is interested in FFXIV because he heard the story is amazing. He's worried that he won't be "good enough" to play the game, and I was wondering if someone could recommend a really easy class for him to play so he can enjoy the MSQ?
honestly i found tank leveling to be very simple
That said he can't currently buy the game if he wants to play
it is, but less stress
Not even the free trial
the game is too full
u cant create new accounts or buy the game
till further notice
also character creation as of late has been severely limited outside odd hours (most ppl sleeping, etc)
still a server queue, dunno how it'll be on your side though
I think it depends on when you get on. I have a que of like 10 people when I get on in the mornings
Game is literally too popular, sales and marketing are being pulled to prioiritize the experience of current customers
Account sharing is illegal tho
how long does it take for the additional retainer to go into effect after payment?
but to answer your original question, i think tank soloing has an easier time, but you have more responsibilities in dungeons. i havent leveled a dps, and healer felt more difficult than tank for me
when is best time to do delubrum reginae ? theres always only 4 people or something
Up to 10 business days
During downtime
when is downtime ?
aka: not now, everyone's gearing up for raids
Not in 2 weeks either
is it possible to make fc safes accessible to non fc members by name?
Because Savage
like if you're the fc owner
no
hmmmm is there any other way of storing something someone can pickup in game other than fc safe?
mail moogle
Someone joined our FC, robbed the FC chest, then left. Is that reportable?
SE won't do anything about it
its on the FC to make sure that permissions are set up properly, for both ranks and the free company chest
so I don't know why you couldn't, but just to check: you can farm rathalos extreme unsynced and probably have a fairly easy time with it if you're all 90s, right?
Yes
Yeah and you can mostly freestyle comp it
Odd question, if I were to hit level cap on free trial with exp to spare would it carry over when you bought the game? I'm assuming not, but eh why not ask
No
yeah I'm watching a video about the fight, just because I'm bored with about 50 minutes left in my shift at work lol
but that's cool, I like that
Expected that one. Alright
you probably couldn't do it solo though, right?
At 90 probably
Machinist did
you can
At 80
just don't get hit
Burst add and rapidly hit rath during flight
You can avoid most of raths attacks
Rath EX doesn't have a hard enrage iirc you just run out of pots eventually
Cuz monster hubter
It does hard enrage
oop
I just paid for more retainers but when I go to hire more it says I have maximum does it take awhile to register?
what's a good place to advertise gil making focused fc?
Up to 10 business days
how does savage raiding rewards work? do i just do 1 raid and its guranteed i get the weapon for the specific class i want?
!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
tldr; if you want the weapon, clear p4s and win the roll on the chest that drops or win the weapon itself if it drops
also you only get loot once per week per boss whether you win anything or not
p4s?
Pandemonium 4 savage
To be clear this is only for the most recent Savages
im trying to get the edenmorn gunblade
That's e12s then
then the rules above don't apply
old savages don't have loot restrictions
you just have to clear the fight enough times to win the chest or the weapon
only e12s drops that weapon
how many times for a gurantee?
8
you get a book token for every clear even if you don't win any loot
8 book tokens = a weapon or chestpiece of your choice
it's the pity mechanic
alright
how long would you say it takes to learn and beat e12s as someone who never did savage?
like make a mount farm party, and when everyone got their mount you'll have 8 books cause 8 clear
8 people got their mount, and they all got their 8 books
that's 100% chance
too many variables to account for in that estimate
E12 has some mechanics, like a good amount
idk im pretty built
depends how many people in the e12s party already know the fight really
you can skip a lot of mechanics
you absolutely should be able to skip lions now
which is either the worst or 2nd worst mechanic of phase 1
My summoner is already lvl 47. But i am unable to do the lvl 35 summer job quest. It says i need to defeat Primal titan.
But a friend of mine never had to do it and he is lvl 50 bard and was able to do all the job quests without restrictions. And he is on lvl 30 story quest. So why can't I do it?
Summoner is special
bard and summoner have different requirements lol
cause you need to do primal titan
titan is part of the story
You’ll know why afterwards
i see
e12s probably isn't all that bad if you skip lions in p1 and skip 3poc in p2
with echo, shiva trapping is probably a lot less likely
i guess my plan then, is to get to 90 --> gear up at 90 --> practice fight --> i have horrible luck, so i beat like 8 times
i really didnt want to buy endwalker until later but oh well
i really want that blade
glamour, true end game 😁
You can also just get it later
yes
Not like they disappear
well just be aware that no one is doing old savages right now
especially when a new raid tier is about to come out
you may be waiting a while to fill a party
rip
yeah, they might want the mount. So make a mount party
should be easier then ever then, right?
the mount is the eden GF from FF8
How do you put translation arrows? when I press Tab it opens a window to select a sentence. but how do I add the arrows around custom text?
alright, thank you
yeah so it depends on your message
but how are people doing it in dungeon macros with any text they want?
macro
yes so im asking how to make it lol
Those are in the dictionary
type /macros
after you done with the message, drag the macro to your hotbar
They’re not.
where do i find the greatest e12s guide
when i press tab it opens the
what message do you want?
The arrows exclusively appear around terms from the dictionary
"I'm just testing" with arrows around it
It's for that word only
if you want Hello, type Hel then press tab
there's no preset for I'm just testing 👀
It works like a partial search
Yeah I’m not aware of that being a term
But that’s how you would search for it
I'm pretty sure I saw people type long sentences warning of boss mechanics with arrows around it?
That's being smart with preset words
some mentor has them, cause mentor roulette often put them into ex trials
go to youtube and look up "joonbob e12s"
there are 2 videos
joonbob has one for phase 1 and one for phase 2
and lv 50 primal spell usually included in preset under blue mage spell
thank you
@patent citrusso if you put a skill with the arrow, it'll make the entire sentence arrowed and not just the one word?

If that word Is the start of a auto translated message in the dictionary
No only the auto translate term will have the arrows around it
Auto translate terms include many short phrases or sentences
just example
cool ill pay attention to ppls messages to see if i can figure out how they do it
Such as
I seem to have misplaced my keyboard
cool thanks for the help guys
is there some type of way to know what places you have left for triad matches with npc's other than traveling to every zone?
The card collection has their locations I think? Or at least their names
At what point should i bother with Gathering/crafting jobs?
Whenever, it’s your choice
sadly no.
just tp to every zone, and scan the map
is there a guide for crafting/gathering here?

Hey is private housing active in endwalker? I came on and i dont see my house/private estate anymore
I mean it’s pretty self explanatory once you get your first one
they are still active? EIther that, you probably got auto-demolished
you probably didn't put aetheryte outdoor furniture
put what?
a mini aetheryte, to be able to teleport to your private estate
assuming you know how auto demolish works
If you didn’t go in your house in the last 45 days, it’s gone
wtf
It prevents people from buying a house in whatever the first patch they added housing in and then never logging in again, effectively wasting a housing slot (which are limited in availability)
wow
I personally think for FC houses the timer should be shorter, or it should require more than one person to visit
You receive email notifications about this as it happens
ok how tf do you keep the npc's allive in slings and arrows? I just cannot keep the manservant alive for the life of me even if I stop doing damage to heal him >_<
fate grinding or bozja for 80-90?
Uh
people seem to do bozja if your queue times suck
i mustve missed the emails smh
otherwise, dungeons
Msq, for your first
do the one that the least boring to you
you get an FC with 500 people and one (1) person visits the house every 40 days and the house stays >.>
to me bozjan is fun, you can combine lost action, essence
i still havent done msq
Do it
so i guess ill do that
Are you paying attention to what the NPCs are telling you to do? There might be a mechanic you're missing.
yeah msq is the most important
MSQ for first job always, after that Bozja/Zadnor or dungeon spam to level alt jobs
Uh
IDEK I'm starting to think the servers starting to lag out pre-maintenance >_<
Are the PvP changes to each job planned for 6.1 or 6.01 ?
Trusts tend to be better than Bozja.
So genuine question, how do I get unstuck from places? Cause I'm entirely stuck rn
use return/teleport
okay, thank you
Pay attention to the NPC dialogue during the fight. If there's a mechanic you really need to do, or an enemy to focus on, they'll tell you.
Oh come on :/
Isn't Bozja unironically WAY faster than dungeons though ?
No
Not at all
I was so close to my quest complete and now I'm entirely stuck
Especially not for 81-90
It's just an alternative to dungeon, yeah
:/
It gives 300k XP per Fate / 800k for CE
And Fates are farmed in 30 seconds
And past 80 that’s nerfed
It would just help if that servant's health wouldn't tank like a rock worse than all the tanks I've ever healed in dungeons up to this point XD
is maint in 40min or 100min?
It's been a long time since I did that particular quest. Like, I did it back in Heavensward long, and the class mechanics were entirely different back then, so my recollection isn't going to be much use beyond telling you to simply pay attention to the NPCs.
the triad trader in gold saucer does he have cards that cant be obtained via matches?
might as well get better gear/level up to make it easier
if you need a guide https://youtu.be/JYf-kZUGSmU

I don't even know if video guides would be accurate anymore, since they removed an entire half of AST's kit.
I mean I'm not the one dying here, it's the dang NPC >_<
I bet a lot of guides are still going to say "use Noct stance and shield the NPC"
pfft yeah I have no clue what that is 
the guide I posted seems using diurnal
Yes some
It's in about an hour and a half. You can always use the !maint command in #kupo-bot-spam

ah nice
I highly recommend this tracker for TT cards and NPCs https://triad.raelys.com/cards
I thought they meant game maint, because it says 6pm pst -2am on the site 
That is the game maint

yeah that guide is outdated
What guide 
Cleric stance isn't a thing lol
Cleric stance
Oh
this one
Doesn’t matter the job quest hasn’t changed
does this count as RMT? Should I report?
That tells you how the fight goes
Yes it is
Yes
and yeah, quest guides isn't about how to play your job, you should already know
it's just mechanics
yeah they used hacked account to shout, report RMT + Blacklist will do the trick
okie! reported
like the odd thing in mine is for the first fight Quimperain comes up way earlier in that fight...it's weird
also beware the 300m gil raffle scam with almost similar SE website name
hey so my house was demolished, where does all my furniture and stuff go?
where is that?
Scattered around housing wards
Since the demolish, I assume
Yes
so just go to any housing area
ok ty
I wish I could even get a house/buy the full game.....I should've upgraded ages ago 😭
Another thought for you - how's your gear? If your weapon ilevel is low, that could explain why you're struggling to keep the NPC alive.
do i get an armor coffer for the level 80 pld quest?
what is that
Because there are only job quests from 70 onwards.
point taken I guess
By which I mean role quests.
The 80 quest is just to close out the job story
Yeah, I can't tell what your weapon's ilevel/equip level are just by seeing that.
Also make sure those are mind gear
everything should be matching but I should repair things
ilevel below actual level seems.. uh well
It's by barely anything tbf
Nah, for under 50 that's normal.
^
wasnt it slightly above own level below lv50
I struggle to find jewelery to bring it up under 50 XD
Accessories usually hold you back on ilvl
Since there’s not a lot of them before 50
Or a lot from dungeons, that is
As long as the gear is giving your main stat
So I've picked up BLM again after not touching it since HW, can anyone give me a rough breakdown of the rotation for single target and AoE at level 60? :x
heh buy from NPC, they are cheap 😹
ilvl for me didn't start skyrocketing until I beat arr proper a few weeks back
!faq blmleveling
that's how my retainre did it
Didn't know that was a thing, thank you 😄
and all I can say is mah heart hurts
As the tag for it points out, it's a frequently asked question 😄
damn this is bad...my house was demolished, i have no inventory space to carry all of my furniture...wtf am i supposed to do?
Clear some inventory.
retainers/saddlebag
Demolition was turned off at the start of ew
Buy an apartment
And/or fc room
I mean yeah. Apartment at least comes with indoor storage
If I press the button to retrieve online status of friends in another world, does it refresh my whole friend list? Or for only the one I'm pressing the button for?
The whole list
anyone have an idea where to or what dungeon should i go to stress test my gpu? dont want to crash during raids :(. Thank you
has all the worlds become standard?? I can't seem to find any preferred servers on the server check
any alliance raid
Yes, all worlds are Standard right now.
turn all your effects to the highest and turn on all battle effect
Thanks
there are stress test tools for that too
There are no preferred worlds due to the overpopulation issue.
!faq benchmark
For BLM AoE rotation at level 60, I assume I need to Transpose after the 2nd Flare before I can repeat? Or is there some other trick?
Nope
Nope
Not anymore
B3 automatically switches you and gives you 3 elemental charges
!trait Aspect Mastery
Oh! Nice.
when do you get access to this vendor?
I think It's around lv 78 MSQ?
Once you reach The Tempest and progress sufficiently in the MSQ
ok yeah I think problem is game lagging or something pre-maint.....I just clicked on like 3 different aetherytes(misclicked one) and took a solid 3-5 seconds when they're usually instant for the menus to pop up maybe that's why I keep failing it so bad 
btw how easy/comfy is BLM compared to before 6.0?
It's 79 MSQ
ah thats a long way ok
Very comfy
The rotation is pretty straightforward, but I found it kind of annoying because you still have to worry about timing your rotation just right.
How long the upcoming maint gonna be?
8 hours
hmm i might give it a try then.. never liked it before 6.0
It's easy to pick up the basics, at least. And with the changes to Enochian you don't have to worry as much about dropping Astral Fire/Umbral Ice.
But mastery is a different matter entirely.
It got ALOT of QoL in endwalker
you mean positioning?
Yeah, and timing.
I leveled it through dungeons in EW, and there are a LOT of bosses where you simply cannot stand and cast long enough to do a full rotation without very careful planning and/or a willingness to stand in a lot of bad.
so it still comes down to predicting boss movements to stay safe for a certain duration
Or where you simply lose contact with the boss long enough for Astral/Umbral to drop.
Is the current ilvl max 570 rn?
There a macro to snap my camera / focus target, like I want to do shukuchi and snap the camera 180 so I am facing him properly.
EXs give 580 stuff
ah, very well
i'm content not pushing myself to chase ilvl rn, ill get 570 and settle for a while
New tomestone gear and Pandaemonium 1-4 comes out tomorrow.
i never did the job quests for crafting and gathering in the crystarium, is it worth doing them now?
Might as well, they’re not going anywhere
do they give anything other than unlock deliveries?
Crystarium deliveries give it of xp and scrips
is there a way for me to find out which TT NPCs I haven't dueled yet
ugh I guess I'm just supposed to heal Quimperian but I can't seem to do so enough and fast enough so I don't lose the duty >_<
if he's taking so much damage that you can't even gcd heal him through it that sounds like a problem
a very unlikely problem
his health should not be dropping that fast but it is
what weapon are you currently using, and what actions are you using to heal him?
Altair which is lvl37 apparently yikes
That's fine for level 40 content
yeah, that's not too bad

there's almost certainly something else going on here that we're missing
then why am I failing so bad Benefic 2 is what I try to use since both it and 1 cast the same time but 2 heals more 
what about the rest of your skills
for healing, you should keep the aspected benefic regen buff on him, then use a combination of essential dignity and benefic II to keep him up
i assume you're also contributing with DPS on the lesser pirate minions, right?
that's what I'm attempting to do....key word there XD
learning how to juggle DPS and healing is admittedly pretty tough, especially on the duties where you have NPCs to focus on keeping alive instead of party members
if you fail a solo duty once, you should be able to reenter it on an easier mode, and if that fails, you can always level up a bit more and gain better gear
your level and stats will still downsync to the max level of the solo duty, but you'll still be stronger than if you go in as a fresh level 40
spam malefic and use all ogcd heals doesn't work?
NPCs I've realized are also dumb and for some odd reason usually weak compared to party members. Party members can at least pull 3x the weight before their hp tanks like that
that's the puzzle, if it doesn't need heal then what's the challenge lols
are you targeting the dude for heal?
trying to but game lags the freak out
6.1 or later according to last mention on lodestone
things like this is why I wish I could pay up and join a guild I could use someone teaching me in game which is hard to do when most social features have been barred from me since I forgot to come back post FT bump and never upgraded XD
What server are you on?
well there is always this channel to ask for help/tips
yeah, you gotta learn yourself
fc probably cant give better advice than the people here :^]
do you know what gcd and ogcd is?
exo, I just want to be able to actually talk to people in game. Sucks having friends in game and not being able to talk to them much less other things XD
ooo hmm
it’s level 40 so only heal ogcd is dignity
does ishgard housing come out with 6.01?
you can be in the same link shell and if you ask someone to invite you to novice network
but yeah, you gotta finish that job quest yourself
noone can carry you
but i think the problem is sth else .. seems like the heal isnt going on the npc dude
you can do it very easy however
is kujuta congested?
What recipes should you make as a chef atm? I've heard dps are buying the coconut chowder, what are the other good ones?
no server are congested atm
I heard the food is still bad now
but I'm not sure how's the market works, some people are still using chickens for some reason
o, i meant as in how r the queue times there? is it the same as Ton?
Kujata has much less people than Tonberry
This is always the pattern for expansion launches
Normal mode 2 weeks after launch, savage 4 weeks after launch
grats
Can you put retainers inside a house like you can outside?
congrats!
whats the website where I link my logs and it tells me how to improve my dps etc
how do you change map instance?
Xivanalysis
are DRK animations slow AF or am i trippin
Interact with the aetheryte
thx
tyvm
It's sword swing animation are slower
But that's just visual
Will there be potency changes for this patch or nah?
Your damage calculation is on the same timing
Yes
And your global cooldown is the same as everyone else
yea the visuals are sloth
Hey guys so uh, fairly new player => Got hooked in PotD~ leveling my aetherpool gear currently. I definitely want to give Necromancer title a shot eventually, but I also saw I can downgrade my gear by 10 to gain grip~ then trade those for cool glamour weapons. 3grips for base glamour "light" weapons, 6 more for the "red"-ish version~ or something like that.
Question is... how hard is to level weap/armor to max 99~ I really want to max them asap but if i'll have to downgrade from 99 later to get glamour will it be painful to re-level it to max? Also, if I want both versions for glamour, that's 3 for white then 3 for 2nd pair+6 for the trade, 12 total per weapon set? I just wonder if I should I just take few days to keep them around 60-70 and grab all of those I want before committing to maxing it for 100+ push?
Quick question of my own, normal raid, what time?
2:00 a.m. (PST)
So, about 9 hours from now, give or take
@noble dome while I'm not very experienced with potd, all I can tell you is you probably don't want to dump all your aetherpool away
so ive heard if youre really gunning for necro, starting from floor 1 and youll go from 79/79 to max before u die most likely...take that how u will
From what I have heard, the higher your aetherpool is, the lower the chances you will gain more from lower floor
youd probably hit 99 around 100-130 i imagine?
Taking it way too low, would probably means you spend too much time grinding inefficient floors (if such concept exist) to recover what you spent
Is materia important as I level? I still need to find and do the quest to unlock it
No
Yeaa, basically my idea is to either keep it around 60~ that way i can keep farming 51 - 80~ and downgrading to get grips, since I think getting 90-100 might be painful as you basically need to run 90+ for a decent chance for upgrade and since each death you gotta re-run 50-90 with low chance of upgrade.. sounds rough, but I am new/never did it so wanted to see if anyone has~
Unlocking it is fairly quick, I'd suggest doing it if you are near the area
How long from now is maintinence expected to end?
Regardless, my thought is one thing at a time
like 6 hrs?
You either focus on getting the necromancer title
Maybe 8 I can't do timezones
yeah it's 2am pst so 8
@noble dome in case you haven't already
I recommend looking up a player on YouTube
Angelus demonus
Or something
Yea, watching few, reading up guides, i'm commited~ x)
The fella is very hardcore on soloing potd and hoh, and teach people tips and tricks
Yep I love that guy, hes good
actually they changed the start time so it's 4? I give up
Have fun with your potd, and good luck with getting the necromancer title
Thanks, really got sidetracked from MSQ with it but I fell in love:D
this is the lodestone maintenance, not the game maintenance
How long does it take to get to 180+ of potd? I just started and reached 50 but plan on doing solo runs since I dont have a party to play with
Where are Deep Dungeons?
Potd is in New Gridania
Black Shroud~ Quarrymill
Ah ok that makes sense
The quest to unlock it. Is in New Gridania adventurers guild. The entrance once you complete it is where Turaos said.
do character hitboxes for the purposes of enemy aoe attacks vary by race?
HoH is in Ruby Sea
Quarry mill New Gridania?
Nope same hitboxes from what I've seen
hours
You can play with randoms
And about 180, I guess to go over 120-130 you Really need to get your aetherpool gear maxed from what I heard, meaning you will need to first focus on just running 60-100~ as high as u can, die, repeat. From experience when I tried floor90 boss with gear at 65/65~ comparing it with vod of someone with maxed weaps, hp pool etc.. was like different game.
Not from 101 you can’t, you need premade groups
South Shroud - Quarymill*
And as for location - https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Quarrymill Ill send you ss of exact NPC in a second
Thanks
I got it
I done POTD a few times already but each time i forget where he is
Ah fair x)
I guess I better max my armor for potd. Going to attempt Necromancer next year.
Welcome to the club then:D But yeah, from what I was told kind of pointless to aim at climbing 100+ seriously when your gear isn't maxed out~ also like I wrote before, if you want glamour items (Aetherpool grips) its best you do it before maxing your weaps, I guess, since later downgrading from 99 and having to re-level it might be paaaaainful
i wanted to get a retainer to level 80 DRK so I bought the retainer journey III book, but my only jobs over 80 are DRK and RDM. Am I required to have one of the classic jobs at 80 before using a book, or is there any other semi-ez way to get there?
I see I have a lot to learn. I'm nearing max lvl on 2 of my characters before even starting EW and I have learned so much last 2 weeks. POTD, Bozja, Relic Weapons. I'm just catching up on content like that which I missed out on.
Yea I'm new too, EW as in.. Endwalker? I just started Stormblood and got into PotD, so yeaaah xD
I think you can still use the book. I have used the book for maxing a player job and it didn't require anything. Maybe just being the base class.
I never used any on retainers so idk for sure.
There's no issue selling job gear right? I can buy it back from the Salvage Dealer whenever?
is there a place to see what the maintenance is all about
patch 6.01 release
Yeah Endwalker. I'm just catching up on that stuff since I grinded story for Stormblood back before SHB came out and got burnt out. Grinded SHB and now just taking break from MSQ.
I would say take your time and take in what each expansion offers fully unlike what I did.
It is bringing Pandaemonium difficulty raids
says it can't go over my current class... so I'm thinking my options are either get one of the default classes to 80 or level the retainer high enough on my own to switch its job
if you have no base class at 80+ yes your only way is to get the job unlocked first then use boost on it

Can using HQ materials actually degrade the collectability of a rareified item?
no
if you mean old HQ materials, they just count as NQ, if you mean combine materials like ingots and stuff, they will simply increase the base collectability so you have less needed to craft
Hmm im not sure if my memory is just wrong or what then. I swear I capped the quality of a low-tier collectable but it didnt give as many scrips as a resource is saying it does
Didn't get my wonderous tails turned in before maintenance, is it gonna be any good after?
you do get less xp for the craft(as in when you finish the craft) iirc, but that's the only thing that goes down
if it was this week's it's fine, you can turn them in the week after
Maybe the site just isnt updated for 6.0
Doing the ARR relic weapons for PLD and I'm seeing some guides saying "2000" but I don't know what that means
Okay, awesome. I had one more stamp to get and got greedy thinking I'd get Syrcus Tower and the Alliance Raid bonus at the same time.
...Got Orbonne lol
2000 what
the heal is 2000 mana
oh light
you need 2000 light I assume that's what it means, you gain light clearing content, you get varying amounts depending on content
once you're on that step the NPC will explain stuff anyway, it's just a grinding step
hey, when do they release the patch notes for 6.01?
sometime during the maintenance
Thank you
When does maintenance start?
How many sack of nuts you can get weekly? The one on ||Old Sharlayan||
Scroll up like 2 messages
Loads and loads if you go to every train
Can you get 800 in a week? Iirc you can only get one weekly hunt notes?
Easily
I thought only one notes(?) per week on each difficulty
The hunt notes are your own weekly single B rank target
Hunt trains mean you join a group of multiple parties
Sorry this is probably a dumb question but is there already a "patch-notes" for this maintenance somewhere?
And if not, do we know if they're gonna touch RDM?
Scroll up abit
Maybe
Is there equivalent for SHB coffee biscuit grind for cul right now? EW Coffeee buscuit got nerfed to the ground
Oh, so if we join someone with a hunt notes, we still get the sack of nuts?
Welp got booted mid cs. Hope it doesn’t corrupt anything :8
S and A rank aren't tied to any hunt bill
They are free for all, but they show up less frequently
I don't see it? @-@
You can also get 110 nuts a day from doing the daily regular mob hunts
B rank are always around, but they only reward the players with the matching weekly hunt bill
.
What Lyon said
I see. me want that ||diabolos wings|| XD
i'll try it out then by clearing that hunt board
Join a hunt train, and kill what other players kill
From party finder?
Yup
For S and A rank, is it rng spawn?
Hidden cooldown, I believe
Are there any site that can shows when they show up or which spots?
S ranks are on 80-140hr respawn timer, 50-80hr after maint is done, also have special requirements to spawn
...
A ranks are 4h-6hr respawn timers
Correct me if I'm wrong, with instances, wouldn't that mean the s and a rank are more frequent?
yes
110 nuts a day from hunt board, right?
Yup
is there a weekly cap for the Allagan Tomestones of Aphorism
no
Weekly cap is astronomy, and that's not coming until week 1 January
sweet
When will the patch notes for 6.01 release?
During maintenance as usual
Thank you
Not the channel to advertise this sorry
question, is there a way to get some UI / image assets as a PNG? like if I wanted a specific materia icon or something as an image.
when is M over

in about 7 hours
you can do !maint in #kupo-bot-spam to check
did they say what are they "fixing" ?
beyond the login issue, no. we'll get patch notes in a few hours, probably
there will be patch notes later, but yes they already posted about some of the fixes they'll do
bunch of known issues fixes, like the sound issue and a NIN bug
There is a 99.9999% chance we will get a relic for EW right?
Do we know if EW Relic will be tied to the new Eureka thing?
Also do we plan to get a new Eureka thing in EW?
Very likely
we don't really know what they'll do, but probably yeah
I know for sure that they mentioned a new deep dungeon
YoshiP: "Ha! You fools! EW Relic is tied to Island Sanctuary!"
New eureka/bozja though, I can't recall anything
Literally farming for your relic
But seriously tho, I could see the Crafter / Gatherer Relic tied to Island Sanctuary
it is in fact possible some steps involve island sanctuary stuff(as an option at the very least)
I'm still waiting for Planet Sanctuary 
Where each player gets a small Mario Galaxy like Planet
That's 9.0
I don't think the FFxiv engine can do that tho lol
Anyone has experience to play this on new Macbook M1?
FPS? Settings? Long sessions of gaming?
THATS A LOTTA NUTS
Do dots snapshot when cast?
yes
When does maintenance end?
oh shoot i forgot to turn in the wondrous tail i picked up last tuesday. am i gonna miss anything if i just turn it in tomorrow morning after maint?
normal raids don't have a lockout right
mmk

so a chest piece token drops from all 4 bosses?
yes
i see
Oki cheers
you're still eligible for loot in a second run on normal if you didn't get anything the first kill right?
Yes
but that's different in savage
Until you win something you continue to be eligible in Normal. In Savage you're only eligible once per week on your first attempt.
Oki ty
What is the lvl req for the new raid? 90?
About 6 hours. Little less than 6
Endgame content always requires endgame level to participate.
Ah
P1-4
P#N/S
Ahhh
cos the raid series is Pandaemonium
Asphodel in greek mythology is where the heroes go when they die right?
We never abbreviate by individual tier name.
The fields of Asphodel are where those who died with no distinction go.
Elysia is the hero one?
yes
Elysium, yes.
Righto trying to remember greek dead area names
For moonward gear, can I just spam any roulettes at lvl 90 that have it or is it only available as a reward from expert?
aphorism is only reward from roulettes (not all mind) once a day if you do them as a lvl 90. after wards you either spam the lv90 dungeons themselves or do hunt trains
Ah okay so it’s not like the regular tomes
Do we know what ilevel Pandaemonium gear will be?
580
tyty
it is, you just can't spam roulettes for their rewards since the rewards are one time only. But other roulettes besides expert award aphorism tomes if you do them on a 90 char
Oh okay
Should I get aphorism or normal raid gear? Forgot which one is better.
normal raid is going to be higher lvl but its weekly locked
Ah, right. That's how it worked, tyty.
will purple script phase out like capped tome during EW patches?
no
do we know when maintainance is over?
5hrs 23 mins
I read that fully-meld gear will spiritbond faster. Will random low-grade meld works, or it must be high-tier one?
dang
Is this MSQ?
No
We are getting new MSQ in 6.01 !?
its the quests for the raids
kk
Is this a typo? Or is it just that in FFxiv, even patch notes use really obscure English?
vie isn't obscure
Seems like not a typo...?
Oh
It's just me being bad at English
Make sense
Is this Astrology gear?
any1 know a quick way to get the new tomes? is it only roulettes? i didnt realize the gear was gonna be needed for the new raid : (
do daily expert, then either spam the lvl 90 dungeons themselves or do hunt trains
ok thanks
any materias, even combat ones or the old materias that don't do anything like stats/elem resist
Astronomy job? astronomy gear?
tomes
Astronomy Tome Gear
ast tomes come with savage in 605
I have crafting questions specifically about collectables, should I ask here or is there a crafting channel? (I don't see it on the list)
here is fine
questions go here regardless of subject
Just ask here
Isn't it a bit strange that the normal raid requires 565 ilvl? Meaning at least half of your gear has to be aphorism tomes, that seems like a lot of prep for a normal raid
not really

That's normal for the first set of raids
Okay thanks 🙂 I'm working on making a list of all of the materials I need to get all of my crafters to 80 from 70 using collectables. But I can't find a site that has the XP updated after the stat/xp changes... teamcraft shows a percentage but that doesn't help me since it doesn't specify what level the percentage is from, and collectables skip levels.
did you try teamcraft
They literally mentioned teamcraft
raids always have a semi decent ilvl req, you'd need to be grinding old tomes(which is the current tomes for now) to do them, or buy crafted gear(which isn't available yet)
% should actually be the same after the changes
If I'm paying for mats from MB, from lv 70 to 80, is leves cheaper, or Ishgard Restoration?
I was about to try and hop on to get the list of collectibles..... 
they reduced xp gained and xp needed by the same proportion
Leves, ishgard mats are expensive
I see
It's kind of a bummer for people who don't care about ex and savage
which page is that
Which page are you seeing that? I didn't find that
oh pog
input your crafter level
Also to level up crafters... it's generally just leves, class quests, and custom dev right?
if you have an account, if you dont i assume it just lists it as default as well
Okay, that works for my purposes. Thanks! 🙂
considering you don't have to do either for normal raids I'm not sure what's your point?
can literally do expert roulette maybe 6 days and buy full right side and get the right ilv
right side accesories are 180 tomes each
expert is 160 a day
tomes aren't hard to come by. do an expert roulette daily and follow along on a hunt train or two and you'll be swimming in them
Half gear from aphorism is a decent grind
I think tome gear is cheaper this expansion?
is it? it's doing expert roulette once a day for a week, or a few hunt trains, or running dungeons for 3-4 hours, all of which don't have to be done right away
I'm burning tomes on alt job gear since I'm capped on my main and can't spend them on anything else
Yeah they nerfed the tomestones needed for the main weapon I believe?
