[safe crater]

unfortunately, the best way to get to a server with a lower queue time is to log on well past prime time and then world visit before logging off

[tepid stag]

what should I do if I get the sound bug that just mutes my whole games audio, is there a way to fix it without relogging

[warm snow]

About as well as a bail bucket on a sinking cruise liner

[torn lichen]

how should i be gearing up my crafters for level 70? just wearing adept's right now and have a stash of white scrips i would like to spend

[warm snow]

White scrip gear til you hit 90

[torn lichen]

do i have to expand the shop? this is what the scrip exchange says for me rn

ohh ty

[pulsar haven]

Is all the map drop rewards random? Or is there like 1 rare in each map that everyone's striving for?

[warm snow]

Random

[errant mesa]

Pixie wings for latest maps

[warm snow]

Still random

[errant mesa]

Worth 7m on my server

[mighty robin]

does the new petglamour command just not work?

[jade quartz]

Works perfectly for me

What are you trying?

[mighty robin]

it still summons them looking like the primals

[jade quartz]

Are you level 90

[mighty robin]

yea

[jade quartz]

Then they’re not the egis

You have topaz Titan and whatever they’re called

[mighty robin]

ahhh, new names. sorry i got 90 smn from my sch lmao

[honest nexus]

best class to fate farming for the memories of the dying?

[warm snow]

Go to user macros and it has more details on the command

[warm snow]

Blue mage

[heavy wadi]

blu

[mighty robin]

am i able to change phoenix or buhamat? cant seem to get their names, and the wiki shows the old egiglamour command and nothing about the new names

[warm snow]

Otherwise whatever job you're good at

[warm snow]

No

[warm snow]

Console games wiki is also shit if you're using that

[warm snow]

Very very hit and miss

[honest nexus]

ah crap how do i level blue mage lmao

[warm snow]

Topaz titan

[warm snow]

Overworld mobs

Not even kidding

[mighty robin]

yea lodestone didnt have those yet

[fringe ridge]

does food and tincture's stack?

[warm snow]

Yes

[mighty robin]

yes

[fringe ridge]

cool

[mighty robin]

food is just the "well fed" buff, and tinctures dont use that

[warm snow]

They use medicated

So it won't stack with stuff like increased spiritbond drugs

Or crafting draughts etc etc

[opal swan]

Hi i bought a name change from mog station but i have no clue how to change my name? do i have to go somewhere in game?

[dense pier]

OH I just saw it

[regal pawn]

Short cast > Long cast

[honest nexus]

ok i'll try to finally get my blu mage going

[regal pawn]

there's only 1 instance of long cast > long cast
and that's prepull

[dense pier]

For some reason I was mixing up veraero 1 and 2

[warm snow]

Every spell you cast gives you dual cast making the next spell instant, so short cast spell into long cast spell

[dense pier]

yeah, it's a fast cast time I see now

[regal pawn]

right click your character in the login screen and change name
iirc

[opal swan]

thx

[regal pawn]

for example

no wait

i'm stupid

/petmirage "Ifrit-egi" "Carbuncle"

They're counted as egis still

So you use Ifrit-egi, Titan-egi and Garuda-egi as the summon targets
Carbuncle as the rat that follows you around

and it's /petmirage [summon target] [pet glam you want]

[mighty robin]

"The next Ifrit-Egi summoned will appear glamoured as Carbuncle."
but it summons as..just ifrit

[regal pawn]

Might not be able to glam the final primals then

That kinda sucks i guess

[crisp estuary]

When you have to reset the queue on purpose because it logged you in 30 minutes away from home too early -_-

[regal pawn]

was looking forward to carbuncle at 90

[faint flare]

You cant

[mighty robin]

i made them small atleast, to be less in the way :/

[warm snow]

I mean you still have carby for the rest of the time

[autumn hedge]

I'm still having those damn audio glitches and it's driving me insane. Can anyone help me? Seriously I hate this so much.

[regal pawn]

yeah but it's more fun seeing little rat do the attacks

@autumn hedge

[dense pier]

What about enchanted reprise? Uses up 5 mana of both attacks. I take it it's just to sink color-mana during a burst when you have excess?

[faint flare]

For mobility

[autumn hedge]

I tried that, but nothing changed

[warm snow]

It's an instant ranged attack so you keep uptime during movement

[dense pier]

Oh, didn't see the range, kk

[robust crow]

you should try not to use enchanted reprise

[regal pawn]

I'm assuming it follows the standard rule of "don't use until you absolutely have to"

[warm snow]

Exacrly

[robust crow]

it's a last-resort skill

[regal pawn]

slide cast and make use of dualcast

[mighty robin]

"better than doing no dmg"

[warm snow]

A good rdm really shouldn't need to use it

[regal pawn]

You can also use swift and acceleration for it

[warm snow]

Not counting mechanics that have a shit ton of movement, but new accel kinda shits on those now anyways

[regal pawn]

due to acceleration making the spells instant
so if you don't have a proc and need movement, can accel

[tame cove]

how do i start an anima weapon?

the wiki and every video i see says to talk to rowena in idyllshire but i dont see a quest there

[mighty robin]

reminds me, i should check out what changed with rdm, ive noticed i seem to keep dualcast sometimes

[tame cove]

i checked my log to see if i completed it and forgot about it but there were no results

[warm snow]

Finish hw first and make sure you're on a job that was around in hw

[tame cove]

ive done both

[heavy wadi]

there is no anima wep for sam, rdm, gnb, dnc, rpr, or sge

[faint flare]

Heck Azya lla

[tame cove]

yeah im on pld

[faint flare]

Check

[wintry trellis]

Don’t you have to go to azy la first

[heavy wadi]

check azys lla, yeah

[leaden ginkgo]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Anima_Weapons/Quest

[wintry trellis]

It starts by the main crystal there

[tame cove]

ok ill check there

[wintry trellis]

Like to the East of it

[tame cove]

awesome this was it thank you

wack did they remove the first quest or something?

ive definitely never done it before

[heavy wadi]

you were likely reading quest progression

[faint flare]

No

[heavy wadi]

and not where the quest starts.

[faint flare]

It's still there

You just forgot you did

[tame cove]

i guess i did it and forgot lol

anyways thanks

[faint flare]

Search IS case sensitive

[tame cove]

oh seriously?

...

[faint flare]

Yes

[tame cove]

well til

[autumn hedge]

I already did that and nothing changed at all. I was already on default for all of my audio devices

[regal pawn]

Just gotta pray it doesn't break then, not much else we can do

[autumn hedge]

The audio bug I'm getting is the one where everything gets all choppy and stuttered when in combat

It's been happening since EW released

What's there to break if it's already broken? I don't follow what you mean

[wintry trellis]

It could not work at all

[glad robin]

So if my friend decides to get the game but is gonna only start during that 14 day thing that’s coming eventually, does that logic mean they can’t go to the free trial after it ends? Meaning they have to sub to continue using that account?

If they decide to start during the free access period because of the issues that happened with EW

[wintry trellis]

You can’t get the game rn anyways

Even FT

[lost sable]

is there a way to hide this hotbar switcher arrow thing? its blocking my other hotbars

[wintry trellis]

And the 14 days only applies to sub payers

[robust crow]

to directly answer your question, they have permanent access to the game as long as they remain free trial

[glad robin]

Ah I see

[robust crow]

as soon as they upgrade from free trial, they must pay a sub fee to log back in

if they don't pay the sub fee, then they can't log in

[lost sable]

nvm i found it in settings whoops

[glad robin]

Ah okay so that 14 day thing comes during their time on the trial if they are on it?

[leaden ginkgo]

Character Configurations, Hotbar Settings, Enable Hotbar Cycling Button

[robust crow]

if they are free trial, they can log in regardless of paying the sub or not

[wintry trellis]

The 14 day trial is tied strictly to paid sub time

[glad robin]

So it’s basically a filler then that just is applied till they sub

[robust crow]

someone already answered you, but no, they only get the 14 days if they are a currently subbed player

you can't be a currently subbed player on free trial

[glad robin]

Oh okay

Yeah gotcha

[wintry trellis]

Iirc it was stated like you had to have a sub before it started as well? Or was phrased that way rather

[robust crow]

i'm pretty sure they specified a date

[leaden ginkgo]

before dec21 iirc

[hexed marsh]

before 21.12 i think

[warm snow]

It's an apology to the people paying to play the game who can't, which your friend doesn't qualify for

[leaden ginkgo]

literally second pin here

[wintry trellis]

It was patch day yeah

[glad robin]

Fair enough

I figured I could tell them about the game and they were interested anyway

[rain sparrow]

What are some good places to level at 70 as a Paladin? excluding MSQ and daily roulette

[glad robin]

I guess they need to wait till trial resumes again

[robust crow]

spam your highest level dungeon

except for a level 70 dungeon

do a level 69 one

[slate arrow]

*leveling dungeon

so a nice dungeon castrum abania

[robust crow]

or go to bozja

[rain sparrow]

ok thank u!

[errant mesa]

Do fates

[slate arrow]

you can't bozja until 71

[errant mesa]

For shared fate progress

[craggy tinsel]

Aren't shared fates only ShB/EW anyway or am I just dumb

[slate arrow]

correct

[errant mesa]

Yes

Which start at 70 and 80

[craggy tinsel]

so I am dumb, nice

[glad robin]

If you spam the MSQ cutscene dungeons without the roulettes, do you get the same awesome exp as you do during MSQ roulette? I assume it’s less?

[slate arrow]

no self deprication only im allowed to

[errant mesa]

Don't think ao

[slate arrow]

no, the Big Bonus comes from the roulette itself

[craggy tinsel]

Never really worth doing Meridianum or Praetorium if not for the roulette

[slate arrow]

the actual dungeon doesn't give much EXP

[glad robin]

Shame lol

[craggy tinsel]

Just treat it like a longer level 50 dungeon - doing it by itself isn't going to net much if you're 70, now is it

[errant mesa]

It used to with mob xp, but now it's roulette and bosses

[glad robin]

Fair

I have the earrings on for now cuz he’s not 80 yet so i wanted to like get huge boosting lvls

[lavish vortex]

Hi! Question, I have the full game, including Endwalker, for ps5… already started it, I’m mid way the MSQ… but I had to travel for 2 months. I have my gaming laptop with me… can I buy the game for pc and continue playing where I left off with the same character, user, etc?

[warm snow]

Unless you want poetics and netflix

[warm snow]

You could, if the game was still for sale. Which it's not

[robust crow]

if you happen to own the starter edition already, then you could

they only suspended sales of complete and starter eds.

i think EW by itself is still available

[warm snow]

Can you still buy the starter edition for other platforms though?

Cuz afaik you can't

[robust crow]

yea that's the issue

[lavish vortex]

I only have the free trial for pc, but nothing else

[robust crow]

you have to at least have the starter ed.

[warm snow]

Cuz sounds like, owns on ps5, not on pc

[warm snow]

Yeahhhhh I'm afraid you're shit outta luck

Free trial is limited to one platform

Sorry dude

[craggy tinsel]

I mean I guess, but... certainly there are better ways

[warm snow]

And you can't upgrade to the full game on any platform

[lavish vortex]

I see I see, thanks anyways!!!

[warm snow]

Keep an eye out for news of sales resuming and you can grab it on pc then, maybe you'll get lucky after the holidays

[balmy gale]

Hey i’m trying to create a new character and wondering which username you find cool between Nergigas, Grisote and Grishima ?

Sorry for the dumb question 🙏

[errant mesa]

Why

Pick what you like

[warm snow]

Yeahhhhh were not exactly that kind of channel, but I'll give my 2c,those all sound like "ow the edge"

[balmy gale]

I kinda like all of them

[errant mesa]

Do a species thematic name if you like

[leaden ginkgo]

grishima if i had to pick

[errant mesa]

Each race has a set of naming characteristics

It's how I named my character

[warm snow]

Also individual "tribes" etc

[balmy gale]

Yeah, is there a generator or something with lore specific names ?

[errant mesa]

Think so

[warm snow]

Yes but it's down during heavy server strain iirc

[errant mesa]

At the very least it explains the naming conventions

[robust crow]

you can just find it on google

https://www.fantasynamegenerators.com/final-fantasy-xiv.php

[errant mesa]

Might change my last name ingame

[balmy gale]

Thank you very much and sorry for bothering !

[robust crow]

or here https://ffxiv.pf-n.co/name-generator

that second one might be better since it seems like it lets you differentiate between tribes of the same race

even contains a link to the naming conventions themselves

[twilit arch]

the first one does both tribes

its just not quite as clear as the 2nd

[robust crow]

well

on the 2nd one

[balmy gale]

I’ll go with the second one, it works on phone, ty

[robust crow]

idk these names all fuckin suck

canonical or not

(female sun miqo generator FYI)

[errant mesa]

So pick a different tribe

catgirl

There's your problem

[leaden ginkgo]

might as well just check the name convention page and create a name yourself

those generated names seem weird and hard to pronounce

[warm snow]

Like most miqote names tbf

[robust crow]

just pick an actual real name and tack a tribe in front of it

[errant mesa]

Even a certain crystal tower character's name is thematically near unpronounceable

[robust crow]

Y'karen

[warm snow]

Seeking Y'manager

[leaden ginkgo]

K'ekw Poggers

[warm snow]

One of my favourite characters is X'Rhun

[leaden ginkgo]

how do you pronounce that? sheruntia?

[robust crow]

good luck pronouncing it

[warm snow]

Zir-uhn is how I pronounce it

[robust crow]

when I see his name I just fuckin read it as "rhun'

[dense pier]

If I want to have a poetic gear be a part of a plate selection, do I need to buy 2 of them? One to keep in the glam inventory and one to keep in use?

[random jay]

man I wanna play but I can't buy it -__-

[warm snow]

You will yes

[warm snow]

Afraid it can't be helped

[random jay]

that's a shame

[twilit arch]

you can put the gear you currently have in the glamour dresser and apply them to a plate, then remove from the dresser to wear

[ripe hound]

Is there a set of lv 80 Purple Crafter gear now?

I mean Purple Script

[robust crow]

yes

err

level 90 yes

level 80 no

[ripe hound]

Oh yeah

lv 90

But oh no, it's not "one" set of gear...

[twilit arch]

Won't get a universal scrip gear until later

[warm snow]

Theres artifaxt(job specific) gear for now

[ripe hound]

The crafted crafter gear is universal right?

[twilit arch]

yes

[obsidian patio]

Probably not until 6.2 for universal scrip set

[ripe hound]

Yeah I think I might just spend money and buy the crafted universal gear

Seems easier

Crafter Universal Gear, then the Script primany and secondary hands

Should be more affordable

Also there won't be gear better than this released in 6.05 right?

Wait... it is this cheap?

Only 35k?

[obsidian patio]

6.1 for better crafting/gathering gear

[ripe hound]

Oh my

[obsidian patio]

Make sure you’re buying HQ gear

[ripe hound]

This is cheap

[hoary kayak]

is there a list with like new stuff retainers can get on quick ventures for EW

[ripe hound]

Is this gear worse than Purple Script gear currently?

[obsidian patio]

It’s worse unless you meld it

[ripe hound]

I see

If I'm poor, I can just normal meld it and craft stuff manually right?

[obsidian patio]

I always liked BLM more, but I’ve been wanting to try out the new monk stuff.

[ripe hound]

BLM is very "YES"

Q: "How fun is BLM?"
YoshiP: "Yes"

[robust crow]

the two classes play very differently

so opinions are going to vary wildly

[dry bobcat]

Does ffxiv use fxaa

[ripe hound]

I still feel like BLM is the most "FFxiv" Job

[hasty musk]

it was the original flagship job

[ripe hound]

BLM's design just plays really really well into the advantages and disadvantages of FFxiv's game design

[robust crow]

do you like caster type classes? BLM is the way to go
do you like quick movements and lots of button presses? pick MNK

[ripe hound]

I don't think it was ever the "Poster Boy" job

But YoshiP is BLM main

[hasty musk]

it's literally on the steam page

[ripe hound]

Oh yeah

Make sense, quite Poster Boy then

But yeah, BLM just synergizes really really well with FFxiv's engine and game design and boss design

FFxiv can get a bit weird when you try to do some sick melee uptime shit

[pallid eagle]

people leaving castrum msq roullete should be punished

[ripe hound]

Where BLM feels much more... well, integrated with the game?

Example of weird melee uptime shit:
https://youtu.be/NiEZSeiMyCc

[safe crater]

to my knowledge, yes

[dry bobcat]

Damn

That sucks

[safe crater]

forcing additional antialiasing in something like gshade can help, but there's a lot of jagged edges and flickering still

you mostly stop noticing it after a while, but when you're new, you definitely notice all the tree foliage buzzing in the background, lol

[sly light]

when does savage release again?

[errant mesa]

2 weeks

[sly light]

thanks

[lavish vortex]

Will do that, thanks!

[viscid radish]

hey there, i have a ton of these collectables but the traders that usually take them dont have any of these in their list.... what do i do with them?

[boreal storm]

Once you learn learn the job and get comfortable...

[errant mesa]

Delete them

They're for collectible turnins

[boreal storm]

Those are custom delivery items

[errant mesa]

Custom deliveries, specifically

You only need 3 per tier until you max them out, after which it will rotate between past items

So up to you if you want to keep them for weeks on end or not to turn them in

[wanton lintel]

How do I get rid of this padlock icon completely

[viscid radish]

ill just delete them then..... thanks!

[errant mesa]

Isn't that the hotbar padlock

[warm lagoon]

is there a specific good guide from BLM rotation that someone can link to me? i feel like im wasting a lot of my GCD there are times where i just stand there for 2 seconds spamming a button until i can cast it

yo where's the inn in old sharlayan

[leaden ginkgo]

baldesion annex

talk to smol lalafel

[boreal storm]

It’s the same inn from the plot

Apparently, Samurai dps is only very high if they don't use their big abilities. I use some big abilities and now I'm wondering what the actual opener and loop rotation is, especially in endwalker with stacks.

[robust crow]

you should never ever be standing still for 2 seconds doing nothin

[warm lagoon]

yeah i figured :p ty

[leaden ginkgo]

they are single hand ins as mentioned in the patch notes due to ppl abusing cookies

[craggy wren]

uh, if i don't see the lalafel does that mean i need to keep doing msq to unlock the inn?

cuz i just got to old sharlayan

[warm lagoon]

so apparently my single target is on point huh i need to remember when i just stand there

[errant mesa]

Most likely, or they haven't loaded in due to player count

[warm lagoon]

what does the guide above mean by "second ui filler"

[leaden ginkgo]

damn Q times for raids are insane … ???

[errant mesa]

Always is for dps

[twilit arch]

umbral ice filler

[warm lagoon]

ah ty

but then if i use T4 and insta foul then ill have to stand afk until gcd goes away to then spam f2

thats what im trying to avoid (standing still)

[craggy wren]

no new playable races were added in endwalker right?

[warm lagoon]

male viera

its not new race but its new ig

[errant mesa]

There are dozens of them

[boreal storm]

Apparently a 81 msq makes it available

[sly light]

if i don’t get a piece in raid can i pass on everything do it again until i get the piece i want?

[slate arrow]

yes

did they change the way macros work or are they still a dps loss?

Hey, all. Are any aware of any resourcess I can use to find a static?

is there like... a unique static discord for each server or data center or what-have-you?

[leaden ginkgo]

party finder, recruitment channel in this server, and probably some NA specific raid discord

[jagged wave]

how long does it tske to collect 9 black copper gil

[modest igloo]

3 days

[jagged wave]

i havent done any of the quests though.

[modest igloo]

Ye

You’re rank 1

So 3 per day

[jagged wave]

cant i do 9 of these?

in one day?

[twilit arch]

no

[modest igloo]

Nope

[twilit arch]

expansion beast tribes are limited to 3 per day

unless you rank up, and then you get an additional 3 for that day

[leaden ginkgo]

just me or is this false if you reach rank 7?

[topaz basin]

Does rank in the aggro list indicate which one deal more damage as a dps if youre not using 3rd party app?

[solid garnet]

quick question but, i've only done till patch 5.0, can i watch endwalker trailer or i'll be spoiled?

[twilit arch]

rank 7/8 do not give additional dailies no

seeing as you're effectively in the "home stretch"

[leaden ginkgo]

was wondering why i didnt get additional 3 when i hit dwarves 7

that explains it

[sudden mango]

alright people this is a dumb one: is there somewhere in open world with war/flames ? for a picture.
And it must not be a dungeon/any duty

[modest igloo]

Kinda? But since tank should always be 1st/2nd and healing generates aggro moreso than DPS

[errant mesa]

The EW 90 dungeon does, but I don't know if the photo mode is unlocked for that one yet

[sudden mango]

not a dungeon please

[errant mesa]

Or the end of SB, Grimhlyt Dark

[regal pawn]

You can kinda use the enmity list as a relative dps meter
But it's only that, relative

[leaden ginkgo]

when do i get the free 21 days?

[solid garnet]

maybe some SB area?

[modest igloo]

Already done

As in you got them

[leaden ginkgo]

i didn't get it then?

[twilit arch]

the free days will be automatically applied to your account, they mentioned it'll take a few days for all accounts to be rewarded the days

[leaden ginkgo]

it says my acc does not have a valid subscribtion

[solid garnet]

wait they gave us 21 days???? it wasnt 14?

[leaden ginkgo]

explorer mode seems to be working for lv90 too

[modest igloo]

Ye

[tepid stag]

can you give dance partner to another dancer and does it work

[leaden ginkgo]

7+14 = 21

[errant mesa]

None of the open world areas are in open battle or wartorn, only the MSQ instances or duties

[regal pawn]

yes

[twilit arch]

it would be 21 total if you had also been compensation the 7 they gave out after endwalker release

[errant mesa]

Is the 7 days also automatic or

[regal pawn]

Actually
EW spoiler ||Garlemald is war-fucked||

[modest igloo]

Maybe the fringes in the SW

[errant mesa]

It's just a frozen wasteland

[leaden ginkgo]

i never got any free time wth @modest igloo

[errant mesa]

Nowhere the same as Grimhylt Dark

[leaden ginkgo]

not even explorer mode?

[twilit arch]

did you have an active sub?

[regal pawn]

||The city is all broken down, looks like a war went through it, cause it kinda did||

[leaden ginkgo]

it ended on the 19th

[sudden mango]

oh will try

[twilit arch]

then you aren't eligible for it

[errant mesa]

I believe the phrasing was fire 😛

[leaden ginkgo]

you can teleport freely between the boss areas and no adds/bosses there

[errant mesa]

Yes, but I saw some people applying

[leaden ginkgo]

bruh

thats stupid

[solid garnet]

so we're only getting if at the time we get an active sub?

[errant mesa]

So wasn't sure if I had to apply or if it was automatic

[leaden ginkgo]

read 2nd pin in this channel for game time COMPENSATION

not free candy

[twilit arch]

Yes, compensation only applies to people with an active sub

[regal pawn]

If you have any game time left
regardless of sub status

[errant mesa]

Cool beans

[sudden mango]

yea it worked perfect thanks <3333

[leaden ginkgo]

first lv90 dungeon has ideal zone for what you need

[regal pawn]

2nd one, actually

[errant mesa]

It's the second area in the first dungeon

[leaden ginkgo]

or maybe try ifrit trial

yeah

i said first because there are 3 lv90 dungeons

[errant mesa]

Inside of you there are 3 dungeons

[sudden mango]

cant use exploration in EW dungeons but SB and SHB have some good ones

[errant mesa]

That'll be 8 shekels please

[leaden ginkgo]

they arent locked to me

atleast i didnt actively try to join one

[sudden mango]

oh its maybe because im in unsynced as well

[twilit arch]

Yea, kind of need to disable undersized if you're want to explorer mode EW dungeons

as EW content can't be done with that on

even if technically explorer mode isn't actively running the content

[leaden ginkgo]

could swear warrior can solo some EW dungeons

[solid garnet]

holyyyyyyy f*
i love you yoshi P tysm

it was to be due 4 jan

[warm snow]

That's probably the extra week from before as well

[solid garnet]

oh yeah
i guess that too

[regal pawn]

If you need fire
[EW] ||Vanaspati|| dungeon
[ARR] Ifrit Trial - can solo unsync so no bamboozle

If you need war
[EW] ||Dead Ends|| dungeon, 2nd area
[SHB] ||Amaurot|| dungeon
[STB] ||Ghimlyt Dark|| dungeon - Literally war
[STB] ||Doma Castle|| dungeon - If you need more of an eastern type of deal
[ARR] Castrum Meridanum - can work as an army base under assault

[warm snow]

Ohhh photos?

[viscid lake]

Can you turn in GC Supply missions only at the Maelstrom Command or corresponding locations for the others, or are there alternate spots?

[sudden mango]

you missed SHB ||amauroth|| which i ended up choosing

[regal pawn]

I didn't 😛

[warm snow]

There's also a crashed ship in SB ||the burn||

[leaden ginkgo]

im pretty sure its there

[sudden mango]

you didnt lol

[regal pawn]

I don't use it often for pics cause spoilers
need more people to see my hot au'ra

[warm snow]

Only YOUR grand company

If you switch fcs it changes your hand in location

[sudden mango]

sorry didnt see the order was from closest to oldest

will update you with a picture if interest, you've earned it

[viscid lake]

Right, I meant people in other GCs use the other headquarters. No spots other than those, though?

[warm snow]

Nope

[twilit arch]

well, can turn in at any of the gc levemetes in ARR zones

[regal pawn]

need pic

[warm snow]

The gc hand ins?

[twilit arch]

Yes

[sudden mango]

anyone else ?

[foggy swan]

hi

Why can't I buy the game?

[leaden ginkgo]

counter action against server congestion

[warm snow]

Game is literally too popular, servers can't take it. Sales cancelled til further notice. Gonna prioiritize current customers

[viscid lake]

Any levemetes, or only eg the La Noscea ones?

[leaden ginkgo]

any "GC Levemetes"

[twilit arch]

its specifically the grand company levemetes

after like lvl 30 or so, there's some places with 2 levemete npcs

one is your general purpose crafting/combat/gathering npc, and one is specifically for grand company seal leves

[leaden ginkgo]

Where are character config files stored? I wanna save mine before reinstalling my OS/wiping drive

[warm snow]

There's free cloud backup in the login

[regal pawn]

C:\Users\[name]\Documents\My Games\FINAL FANTASY XIV - A Realm Reborn

but also that

[warm snow]

Just suggesting that cuz it's easier

[inner heath]

Guys can i get Regula van Hydrus armor?

if so which dungeon/trial/raid

[errant mesa]

You have to write an email to Yoshi P for it

[regal pawn]

fat no iirc

[inner heath]

sadge it looks so cool

[solid garnet]

oh about that
are levemetes worth it? never done these things

[errant mesa]

Depends

Battlecraft not usually, but there is a first time completion bonus iirc

[regal pawn]

not worth even with bonus

[errant mesa]

But crafting and gathering ones are solid

[regal pawn]

field/tradecraft - one of the best, if not the best, ways to level crafters

[solid garnet]

got it

nice

ty

this game's so cool
got 300hours and still dont know 70% of it

[leaden ginkgo]

how do i rank up past this point, the promotion guy says I can't

[indigo mural]

Do people macro the swift cast+raise into one button out of curiosity?

[errant mesa]

Do 5 command missions

[indigo mural]

Ive not touched macros

[errant mesa]

I don't, because you can swiftcast a heal if needed

[indigo mural]

but seems like something that would be handy to turn it into 1 button press ratherr than 3

2*

Ahh ye

[twilit arch]

you need to do squadrons to rank up past 2nd LT

[indigo mural]

Im a summoner main, I do play healer every now and again, but for summoner in particular

would it be handy to make a button for it?

[errant mesa]

I would keep them separate

I make macros for placeable aoe's though

[twilit arch]

generally its not recommended to make swiftcast macros, as 1. can't queue macros and 2. they can easily be broken. there's a chance that you may end up using the swiftcast on something else instead of a raise

[leaden ginkgo]

where are the barracks

[indigo mural]

Ah alright

[errant mesa]

Next to each GC headquarters

[leaden ginkgo]

oh lol its right there

i was staring it in the face

[twilit arch]

also you're really not going to save yourself that much button space as sometimes you'll want to use swiftcast on a different spell

shouldn't save swiftcast strictly for raises

[warm snow]

Following off from merry, a lot of people put messages and sound effects in them and that can piss off your party

[ripe hound]

How do I get purple gathering script?

[errant mesa]

Lmao yeah don't be one of those cringey healers with something dumb in their swiftcast raise

Turn in level 90 collectables

[ripe hound]

Lv 90 Collectables... and Custom Deliveries?

Anything else?

[errant mesa]

Studium as well

[twilit arch]

No

[ripe hound]

Oh cool

[errant mesa]

But I may be misremembering

[twilit arch]

studium only gives white scrips

[ripe hound]

Oh yeah, Studium is only leveling

[errant mesa]

Felt like Crystarium did though

[twilit arch]

No

[errant mesa]

Sad

[twilit arch]

crystarium gave yellow

[ripe hound]

So yeah... only Collectables and Cus Dev...

[twilit arch]

ocean fishing can also give purple

[ripe hound]

Oh yeah

[twilit arch]

but its not really worth it tbh

[ripe hound]

But I need lv 90 Finshing

[twilit arch]

because you have to go for specific fish

[ripe hound]

I see

[errant mesa]

Honestly custom deliveries give you a lot

[leaden ginkgo]

is there a certain doh class that is required to desynth grey items to trade for seals

[errant mesa]

2 weeks of it and I only need a few more for all left side

[leaden ginkgo]

Can you not use fantasias right now?

[warm snow]

You don't desynth stuff for seals

[warm snow]

Depends how busy your server is

[leaden ginkgo]

can you even make the grey items available to turn into seals?

[warm snow]

If they're hand you're daily gc hand in item for crafter

Otherwise no

[leaden ginkgo]

question, can i play two characters at once? while i am waiting in que to log into NA server, can i play on EU server?

[scarlet minnow]

Thinking about leveling up a secondary DPS class (currently a Paladin), but one immediate question popped into my head: Is there any way I can do dungeons as a DPS without waiting an hour or more? (Also, I'm not on Aether at the moment, so its a smaller player pool in general)

[errant mesa]

Yes, pick up a crafter or gatherer to do

Lol

[robust crow]

look at doing palace of the dead if queue times for normal dungeons are bothering you

[scarlet minnow]

Also, how do you go about leveling another job like that? I know how to switch jobs (its tied to the weapon type), but what about quests and the sort?

[errant mesa]

What do you mean

Same way as the first: through getting xp from quests or dungeons

[scarlet minnow]

Eh. Dumb question. I'm still trying to figure out which DPS job to try.

[tribal anvil]

do yall have a Linkshell?

this discord

[errant mesa]

We do but I forget the name, ligma something

[tribal anvil]

how would I get someone to invite me to the ls?

[lost grove]

Do I need to relearn ast now since I'm returning or it didn't change much?

[jade quartz]

It changed a fair bit

Redraw is a lot more limited, cards now give a self buff, level 90 ability is goat

Check the balance for quick catch-up faqs and basic guides to the changes

Earthly star radius is now HUGE

[lost grove]

Ok

[warm atlas]

I just got to Stormblood and my gear feels weak. im lvl 63 and against lvl 60 mobs i loose 50% hp. my ilvl is 259. where do i get better gear now?

[vast hinge]

for reference, HW's max ilevel was 270

you can get shire gear with poetics at idyllshire

[errant mesa]

The MSQ should be giving you gear coffers

Or your job quest

If you got to Stormblood then the MSQ should be giving you gear

[vast hinge]

the MSQ stormblood gear at his level is actually worse than shire

[errant mesa]

I personally used poetic gear for Stormblood until about 2/3 through, so around 66

[vast hinge]

yeah, it's designed to last you until 65-66

[warm atlas]

I actually got weapon, hat and gloves of shire

[vast hinge]

but even on i259

[warm atlas]

should I just go for the last pieces I need?

[faint flare]

Chest and legs are more important than hands and gloves

[vast hinge]

you shouldn't feel weak

[errant mesa]

Do full shire gear

[vast hinge]

I mean, I would just play through the MSQ. as in, don't spend more time grinding poetics

[errant mesa]

Play through MSQ until it forces you to gear up for the next duty

[vast hinge]

you shouldn't be forced to gear up ever is the thing

cause you'll just get the gear you need

[jade quartz]

MSQ provides all the gear you need

[warm atlas]

I see yea

Like I know some stuff here and there (like the tomestone and end-of-xpac gear) but not quite everything. I'm not really great at keeping focus lol

[random jay]

guys, say I buy a key from some other site like amazon, will I be able to create an account and login?

also, how are EU queues?

[errant mesa]

P sure account creation is the barrier, not keys, though those are also not being sold atm

[random jay]

man what a struggle

[warm snow]

They've stopped key sales with as many of the resellers as possible. Anyone still selling is automatically highly questionable as a result

[errant mesa]

Go play that New World mmo

[random jay]

yeah but will it work?

[random jay]

played it, will wait another year or two

[ripe hound]

Can you world hop when in duty finder?

[warm snow]

highly questionable

How are we supposed to know if the third party key you randomly found online is legit

[ripe hound]

Bold of you to assume Amazon will support it that long

[errant mesa]

It's not Netflix, I'm sure it'll be around for awhile

[random jay]

i'm not questioning the key/reseller, I am questioning if getting a key will allow me to play

[random jay]

let's see lol

[warm snow]

On paper yes, whether or not you can get one, low chance

[ripe hound]

I think there are still physical copies of starter edition / complete edition?

[pine ridge]

so correct me if im wrong, need if a roll for items pertaining to your class right?

and you dont compete with anyone but other players of that class?

[errant mesa]

Yes

Need trumps greed

[pine ridge]

Thats a good system

it would suck if people could just take stuff that doesnt belong to their mains at the time

[errant mesa]

It works, but DPS feel a bit more of a sting depending on the content

[pine ridge]

because of the concentration of dps or..?

[errant mesa]

Yeah

[pine ridge]

i see, that makes sense

[errant mesa]

In alliance raids for example, you have 5 DPS, and they can all be the same class and share loot rolls, or they can be different completely

[vast hinge]

tanks have it worse because they have more jobs to share gear with

[pine ridge]

could see how that would hrt

[vast hinge]

DPS is all split into groups of 2 at most

[pine ridge]

oh yeah that too

[errant mesa]

Yeah but tanks in alliance raids are

All fending drops

DPS is 4 groups is it not

Ninja / Melee / Ranged Phys / Magic

[vast hinge]

no

Melee isn't 1

[pine ridge]

anyone know a good way to compare MB prices while trying to sell stuff through retainer?

[vast hinge]

it's MNK/SAM

[pine ridge]

i hate going back and forth

[vast hinge]

or DRG/RPR

[errant mesa]

Hit compare prices in the top right

Right, MNK/SAM, DRG/RPR, NIN, BLM/RDM/SMN

[vast hinge]

meanwhile.. fending

[pine ridge]

YES THANK YOU

[errant mesa]

Sure, but you'll only ever be competing against one other tank at most

In alliance, it's all yours assuming it's not limited. Meanwhile, DPS is a crapshoot

[vast hinge]

you'll always be competing against 1 tank for a trial

DPS average is less than 1

if you mean dungeons or alliance raids then sure

[errant mesa]

DPS average is 2 lol

[vast hinge]

no it's not

[errant mesa]

1, 2, 2, 3

[vast hinge]

you're not seeing 2 other monks or samurais on average in your party of 8

[errant mesa]

In a party of 8, you have 4 DPS, which are not selected according to their type

[jagged wave]

Which step of the EW role quest must I do to unlock artifact gear?

[errant mesa]

MSQ 89

Role quest is just to dye it

[odd knot]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olxZUfxk4bo&t=128s
in this video, he says "purple parse" at 4:50 , what does parse mean in this context?

[errant mesa]

And upgrade to 90

[jagged wave]

Oh ye mb

Eeeek

[vast hinge]

yes and your chances of the other 3 being a DPS in the same group as you is not high

[remote lintel]

full party duties usually drop tokens instead of direct gear anyway so it doesnt matter

[errant mesa]

Purple parse is top ranked damage output

Unless that's pink

[remote lintel]

purple is 2nd iirc

no wait

[errant mesa]

Basically it's good

[vast hinge]

4th*

[remote lintel]

yeah

i think pink is 2nd

[vast hinge]

gold > pink > orange > purple

[errant mesa]

I guess the DPS loot discussion really depends on the popularity of the classes, whatever they're at right now

Is there a tracker for that in EW?

[remote lintel]

no

[errant mesa]

Sad

[remote lintel]

popularity is arbitrary since people have multiple classes

[vast hinge]

closest we have is logs parse counts

for easy content especially

[odd knot]

he said "click the purple parse" in your meaning parse is an adjective, in his meaning its a noun

[errant mesa]

I didn't watch it, so maybe he's talking about in ffxiv logs, where you can click to see how everyone did

[vast hinge]

I just watched the video

purple is exactly what we said

[remote lintel]

A parse is basically logging your dps to see how much you did

a purple parse is a ranking

[vast hinge]

purple is a percentile basically

upper quartile to 95th percentile range

[odd knot]

ohhhh i get it now, i was misunderstanding his meaning in the video thanks

[vagrant pendant]

hey guys

i just bought EW from steam, is it connected automaticlly to my Square Enix and ffxiv account?

[remote lintel]

no you need to enter the key on mogstation

like you did for the base game

[slate arrow]

Steam is NOT like PSN where its tied to your account

[vagrant pendant]

Lol forgot how to do it

[potent lava]

is there a way to know which master recipe books ive already applied to myself?

[remote lintel]

!faq mogstation

[zinc orbit]

FFXIV Mog Station

FFXIV Mog Station link

[slate arrow]

you can't purchase the same master book again

[potent lava]

ah i was worried for nothin, thanks

[odd knot]

I bought ffxiv on the square enix page, is there a way to get steam to track my hours played? or do i have to buy it again on steam for it to track?

[remote lintel]

you would need to buy it on steam

and you would need to make a separate account

[odd knot]

oof

[errant mesa]

Hours played can be seen /ptime

[odd knot]

double oof

[odd knot]

does that track for the account or that character?

[remote lintel]

the character

[errant mesa]

Alts begone

[odd knot]

triple oof

[errant mesa]

It's a mmo, you're gonna put some time into it

[tepid stag]

do barriers proc pld divine veil

[remote lintel]

its anything that heals i think

[slate arrow]

the barrier itself no

the heal associated with the barrier, yes

[remote lintel]

idk if its gcds

[slate arrow]

specifically, a spell (GCD)

!action Divine Veil

[remote lintel]

it doesnt say spell on the tooltip

[slate arrow]

"Healing magic"

an ability is not a spell

which is dumb but like

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[remote lintel]

thats so vague

[steep egret]

Steam tracks every game, by how long the game has been running (through steam)
you can't magically import play time from any game into steam, if you've played it off steam then added it to steam
so if you leave the game at the login screen for 10 hours, steam will think you've been playing for , 10 hours

[errant mesa]

True, /ptime per character is a more accurate total

[odd knot]

thinking about it now, i think my steam playtime would be inaccurate by a lot considering how long im vibing in que lol

[steep egret]

yup

[pulsar kayak]

can you still do server transfer right now? or you can't even transfer server?

because of congestion

my friend asking if he could move from NA to JP

[leaden ginkgo]

no

still no infos when

[pulsar kayak]

can't transfer still?

[steep egret]

like with Warframe, it tracks playtime in game, BUT only in missions, not in menus, say building weapons and frames
but of course Steam tracks all playtime, soo my ingame playtime is like half what my Steam playtime is listed as
in that case, i trust Steam more, as doing things outside of missions is part of the game, so more realistic IMO

[leaden ginkgo]

no

[pulsar kayak]

wow...

[plush wren]

steam has a button for adding an exe to your library so it should hypothetically track hours but you might not be able to launch through steam

[odd knot]

well that explains it, i was wondering why warframe had less playtime than smite when i def played warframe more at the time

most of my time in warframe is theorycrafting with builds lol

[pulsar kayak]

wait, i thought SE was always ok with transfering from congested to less congested homeworlds?

they are not allowing transfers out of NA?

[minor fulcrum]

why would they allow transfers anywhere when everywhere is full

[pulsar kayak]

JP is not full at all o-o

[leaden ginkgo]

due to EW launch there is high congestion everywhere

[pulsar kayak]

there is literally no queue anytime of the day

cuz i play on Ramuh elemental lol

[leaden ginkgo]

its been disabled for 3 weeks

[storm cosmos]

what song plays during the end of the msq cutscene after the second endwalker trial?

[pulsar kayak]

i c 😦

[tall mountain]

what one? ||by "end of msq", do you mean after endsinger?||

[leaden ginkgo]

thats the third trial

[tall mountain]

i know

[sage mist]

What loot are we expecting from the Pandaemonium Savage raids?

[tall mountain]

if you mean the second trial actually, it'll be some derivative of Flow

[storm cosmos]

during the scene where BIG SPOILER ||hydaelyn poofs||

[lost grove]

Uh where to lvl to 80?

[storm cosmos]

bozja, beast tribe

[leaden ginkgo]

what even is your level

[warped nest]

600 gears, 605 weapons, material to upgrades 590 astronomy tomestone gear to 600, mount

[lost grove]

I'm only lvl 70 sage

[warped nest]

Do dungeon

[lost grove]

Since I'm just returning

[leaden ginkgo]

queue for lv69 dungeon

[cosmic pilot]

What’s the fastest way to lvl from 65 to 70?

[sage mist]

Wow you're awesome how do you know this lol

[warped nest]

Standard savage raid loot

[boreal storm]

Dungeons or HoH

[errant mesa]

It's been the same for years lol

[warped nest]

Please read this if this is your first savage raid

!faq savageloot

[zinc orbit]

What floors of savage drop which items?

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

[warped nest]

It is from Shadowbringers

But the overall idea is the same

[sage mist]

Thanks

[modest drift]

hey guys! do you know any web which already has guides updated for jobs? im struggling in melding materia to my monk

[cosmic pilot]

Join The Balance

!balance

Forgot the command

[warped nest]

Tldr:

• if you clear a higher floor without clearing the lower floor(s) first, you can't loot the lower floor(s) anymore for the week
• the amount of loot chest is determined by number of players who haven't cleared for the week

[hardy tundra]

can I still get steel amalj'ok?

[warped nest]

!faq balance

[zinc orbit]

The Balance

Discord

[errant mesa]

Why does it force you to progress in order?

[cosmic pilot]

There u go @modest drift

[warped nest]

You mean the savage raid?

[errant mesa]

Yes

[warped nest]

Well, I guess it was done as a way to make sure new players get a shot at doing savage if they came in late

But that's a bit of a stretch

[slate arrow]

also to keep people from doubling up on rolls for loot

[warped nest]

How?

[slate arrow]

or to funnel 8 peoples worth of drops to 1 person

if full loot dropped al the time

and to keep people from farming it all out day 1

Basically: Normal MMORPG Things™️

[faint flare]

People still funnel anyway with alts, just have to reclear the whole thing

[errant mesa]

So how should I prepare for the next tier of content

[warped nest]

But how would enforcing "if you clear floor 3 first, you are fucked out of floor 1/2" prevents that?

[faint flare]

Get as many 580 pieces as possible

[dense pier]

Can I wear 2 Cryptlurker rings or do I have to do something like the old method where you have 1 higher-level poetic ring and 1 lower-level poetic ring?

[faint flare]

And learn as much your job as possible

[regal pawn]

you can have 2

[faint flare]

They're not unique anymore so you can

[errant mesa]

Non-aphorism is not unique

Aphorism is unique

[warped nest]

Older rings are no longer unique

[dense pier]

finally

[boreal storm]

Once it’s poetic gear, the rings stop being unique

[errant mesa]

I cleared the raid this week, but opted for the ring and gloves instead, does what I get matter?

[faint flare]

If you want to be efficient with your drops

[warped nest]

People usually go for Chest piece

[faint flare]

And pick ouy better substats gear first

[warped nest]

Because it is a bigger boost

[slate arrow]

I assume it's a game design decision, but also to keep people from being like "nah I dont want to do this fight" and/or trying to piecemeal it. Best way to get it answered is to submit a feedback ticket or ask a question to the support desk

[faint flare]

Chest or legs, whichever has better substats

Then whatever head/glove/feet with better substats

[errant mesa]

Okay then, is savage content "fun"

[faint flare]

Yes

It's the high end raid content

[warped nest]

@slate arrow the 0/1/2 chest is designed to avoid funneling gear, that I know

[errant mesa]

The loot doesn't seem terribly worth it

[faint flare]

It's the best possible there is

[errant mesa]

It's the best gear for two weeks though

[faint flare]

No

We don't get new gear for 6 months

Once savage comes

[errant mesa]

6 months until the next 4 raids come out?

[warped nest]

But I still can't wrap my head around on forcing raiders to raid in the floor order is a way to avoid funneling gear or double dipping

[faint flare]

Yes

[slate arrow]

until the next major item level jump

[dense pier]

Oh... I can only posses one of the leggings only tohugh it seems. Guess I gotta repair the first pair then put it in the glamour and then I can buy a 2nd pair?

[errant mesa]

It just seems a bit excessive then, what am I gonna need those stats for

[slate arrow]

you and your healers will appreciate it

[faint flare]

Major patches are roughly 3-4 months, with 8mans coming in even patches

[warped nest]

6.1, in March, is for others to catch up

[slate arrow]

especially with the DPS check

[faint flare]

BIS helps with gearing for next raid tier, any ultimates and clearing stuff faster

[warped nest]

Outside of those, they are trophies

[slate arrow]

and it'll make farming BiS easier, especially as ultimate will be locked at 605 ilvl come 6.1

[faint flare]

unless it's delayed again

[warped nest]

Heh

[slate arrow]

they promised that it wouldnt be delayed

literally because covid

well

i say that but

[modest igloo]

dont you dare

[slate arrow]

looks out the window

at least their WFH pipeline is solid now

[warped nest]

Yoshi-P said they got back to, what? 95 percent capacity?

[slate arrow]

At least half of EW was made WFH according to lodestone posts and our approx knowledge of their development pipeline

[dense pier]

Still waiting for the update that allows Viera to wear all helmets properly

[warped nest]

Something like that?

[slate arrow]

close enough to be considered mostly full

at worst, 2-3 week delays like with EW EA

[warped nest]

I don't think I got a clear answer on this yet

In one of the msq dungeon, you can pick ||Emet and co|| as trusts

What happened once you cleared Endwalker

And do that dungeon with trust again?

[slate arrow]

you can do either Avatar or Scenario

[warped nest]

Ohhhhh

[slate arrow]

Avatar is the scions, Scenario is with Spoilers

[warped nest]

Very nice

So if players duty finder it for the first time

[leaden ginkgo]

btw whats the profit of doing avatar trusts

my npcs are still lv71

[warped nest]

They can still do it scenario way

[slate arrow]

achivements

titles

[slate arrow]

trust glamours

trust dialogue and special interactions

[leaden ginkgo]

huh? how/where

[pulsar kayak]

if you have HW, can you still buy SB,ShB,EW?

or you can't play anything at all

[warped nest]

Oh, in that dungeon, if you queue as healer/tank/Dps, who flex into other jobs? And what do they flex into?

@pulsar kayak you just buy Endwalker

[fickle tree]

Have the auto-demolition counter resumed?

[slate arrow]

You can apply different outfits once you get them to 80, and I believe the same for 90 once you get them leveled

[warped nest]

No, stark

[pulsar kayak]

and you have everything before that?

[leaden ginkgo]

oh you mean the same way as custom delivery npcs?

[warped nest]

That's how XIV sells expansion

[slate arrow]

Just Endwalker

[warped nest]

Current expansion includes all previous expansions

[slate arrow]

No it's related to their previous outfits like their Heavensward/Stormblood, Shadowbringers, or Endwalker outfits

[boreal storm]

No they have specific outfits

[leaden ginkgo]

ah so its not absolutely freely but rather pick what they wore before

[pulsar kayak]

wait so... if you have HW, and EW, what happesn to the inbetween?

you can't go to any SB,ShB area?

[boreal storm]

You have them

[pulsar kayak]

o

[warped nest]

Endwalker gives SB and ShB too

[pulsar kayak]

i c

[boreal storm]

EW comes with everything

[warped nest]

XIV always sell expansion this way

[leaden ginkgo]

would be weird if after lv60 you could gain access to lv80-90 area only

[warped nest]

New expansion will give you the old ones

It is not like the sims

[slate arrow]

You literally can't access Endwalker without previous expansion completion due to how the quests are designed

[warped nest]

Where you get a pet expansion pack

In the ||Emet and co.|| dungeon, if you queue as healer/tank/Dps, who flex into other jobs? And what do they flex into?

[leaden ginkgo]

eh.. the missing dps? or wdym

[warped nest]

It is an Endwalker question

Not for you

Forgot what I said

[leaden ginkgo]

i cleared that dungeon

[slate arrow]

||Emet is Black Mage/Dark Knight, Venat is Paladin/White Mage, Hytho is always Bard||

[warped nest]

Oh, two of them flex, cool

Oh, duh

Obviously two

[tall mountain]

||Not sure what she plays but Venat can DPS as well||

[twilit arch]

||venat is also dnc i believe for dps role||

[tall mountain]

Ah yeah that'd make sense

[twilit arch]

since thats what is in the solo duty

[warped nest]

There's no way one person flexing can cover all three possibilities

[boreal storm]

Dps makes ||Emet tank and Venat heal||

[fickle tree]

Thx

[warped nest]

So if you heal, ||venat become DNC, and Emet DRK||

[honest anvil]

one flex can cover like holminster did

[warped nest]

If you tank, ||Emet BLM, and venat WHM||

[peak night]

I want to farm for the minion in the last EW dungeon, does it have a lower droprate with trust or is it the way to go to be safe that no one else takes it?

[boreal storm]

No

[warped nest]

I believe that gear drop rate is adjusted if you bring trust, but not minion drop

[errant mesa]

It would be slower with trust though

[warped nest]

But do take note that trust can be slower

[boreal storm]

^

[errant mesa]

And even if you run with 3 others, they might already have the minion

[warped nest]

Or you can play warrior + trust

And pull big

[errant mesa]

Thing is though, those dungeons are already 2 or 4 enemy sets before a boss

[narrow tinsel]

so i just got a new logitech mouse and ffxiv isnt showing up in g hub or LGS. any ideas on how i can get it to either so i can map buttons?

[leaden ginkgo]

if i only have the starter edition is my lvl cap 60?

does shb msq give enough exp to fully lvl a job from 70 to 80?

[twilit arch]

yes

[pure copper]

So how exactly do the resets on things like squad training sessions work? It seems those don't reset with the daily reset, so wondering if anything else doesn't reset daily

[quiet acorn]

What's the best crafter to prioritize when trying to make endgame gear for raiding in 2 weeks ? Yes im aware i should level all of them but I've time constraints

I already have a level 86 miner

[twilit arch]

its resets the same time as gc supply and provisioning turn ins do, so can use the timers menu to see when they reset

[silver ruin]

theres literally no answer to this lol, to make a full set you need all of them besides alch/cul

[pure copper]

ohhhhhhhh that's good to know...was wondering when they reset

[silver ruin]

you're gonna be bleeding money buying mats from the ones you cant craft

[twilit arch]

alch actually will probably be needed a swell

[silver ruin]

oh right

alkahests

[pure copper]

is there anything else that behaves similarly for those "daily"
resets?

[silver ruin]

yea ok everything but cul then, or you'll bleed money buying stuff off the market baord the first week

board*

[quiet acorn]

Bruhhh 😩

[twilit arch]

https://www.xenoveritas.org/static/ffxiv/timer.html has a break down of each daily/weekly resets

[pure copper]

tyty

[tulip flax]

Is there any tips you could provide for a new player..I guess things to try and accomplish over the first few days?

[pure copper]

do class quests (gear and skills), and do your MSQ (unlock content)

[remote lintel]

this should prob be updated

[fluid oracle]

what is the most low populated american server?

[warm snow]

Yes

They're all packed

[boreal storm]

There isn’t one

[warm snow]

It doesn't matter

[fluid oracle]

[tulip flax]

Is it a good idea to start gathering and crafting classes early?

[silver ruin]

no

[warm snow]

Up to you

Access to flight from msq will make levelling easier tho

[silver ruin]

you wont have access to a lot of zones for the materials or you'll need a lot of gil

[remote lintel]

its completely optional

[silver ruin]

to buy mats off the market board

[tall mountain]

it can be fun but if you're concerned about efficiency, start it later

[silver ruin]

if you do it early

[remote lintel]

i hate crafting so ive never done it

[pure copper]

honestly, i wouldve thought ishgard diadem would be the most efficient option, and u dont unlock that till youre relatively invested in the game for gathering, at least

[tulip flax]

So wait til my combat class is a higher level

[silver ruin]

yes

[tulip flax]

Is fishing worth it lol?

[silver ruin]

diadem is good till maybe 60, but after that it tends to fall off

[tall mountain]

for both gathering and crafting it's both relatively efficient and easy

it's just... very repetitive

[pure copper]

fair

[silver ruin]

ishgard restoration for crafting is good till 80

[tulip flax]

Ok is getting a player home worth it?

[pure copper]

im just kinda following desperius' quick 80 gathering guide

[silver ruin]

uh
