Standard step on Cooldown, do your 1-2 combo, press whatever glows

[warped nest]

Dancer has more like a priority list

This almost full? Do this.
This ready? Do this.

[robust notch]

Can dance? Dance
No dance? Glowy button
No glowy button? Press 1

[south raven]

how to make stream accept FFXIV quick launcher so it can active controller

i add it to steam but the client close after login

so steam overlay doesnt on for ffxiv

[leaden ginkgo]

Any way to make friends in the game headpats haven’t worked :/

[robust notch]

Should probably ask about that in the appropriate Discord

i.e the FFXIVQuickLauncher Discord

[slate arrow]

You don't add quicklauncher you add the FFXIV client itself to steam for steam overlay usually

Launcher based games fuck with steam overlay because of bullshit

[south raven]

what client ?

[cloud pendant]

when do you think the game will be available for purchase again?

[open coral]

When they have more server hardware.

Not before February at the earliest.

[cloud pendant]

wow...

thats

insane

[slate arrow]

ffxivboot, ffxivboot64, those are just off the top of my head

[south raven]

then i launched that instead of client ?

[slate arrow]

no you have to add the actual game to steam to get steam overlay to boot

you still have to launch the game via quicklauncher

if it's too much a hassle I recommend using something like DS4Windows or just FFXIV native

[rich gazelle]

percentage wise, how much does duty leveling and duty alliance give?

i'm at lvl 89 now, just don't want to waste exp

[south raven]

it doesnt read even i just add and launch quicklauncher

[rich gazelle]

currently 2.2M / 10.8M

[modest igloo]

50% and 30% on average

[slate arrow]

quicklauncher is not the game client, it's the launcher

You need to add the actual FFXIV exe to steam

[rich gazelle]

oh then just nice clear both

[modest igloo]

depends on instance of course

[rich gazelle]

thanks

ooo

higher level gives more?

never paid attention

i mean higher level dungeons

[slate arrow]

well yes but actually no

[modest igloo]

well, yeah, higher level dungeons give more exp

[south raven]

already did

==

[slate arrow]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Then it's steam or FFXIV being fickle

FFXIV has a tendency to break overlays all the time

[modest igloo]

roulette adjusts extra exp for lower instances but its a noticalbe bump doing higher level dungeons

[south raven]

im using GLC it work

[modest igloo]

compared to like sas

[south raven]

but after alt tab

it break overlay

==

[rich gazelle]

ic thanks

[normal oasis]

the comments said this armour drops from an EX primal from SHB, but they don't say which one. Anyone able to tell?

https://imgur.com/VjjykKW

[slate arrow]

Memoria EX

[normal oasis]

thank you

[modest igloo]

gotta raid for glam

[slate arrow]

not a primal, tied to the ShB relic quest

[south raven]

@slate arrow so how did you do it? like login via the game or launcher cuz you give me mixed answer there

[slate arrow]

you have to login via the launcher, and cross your fingers that the steam overlay can insert itself properly

Again overlays with FFXIV is a crapshoot

Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't

More than a few times in ShB Discord overlay didn't work

[south raven]

back to global controller overlay then ==

damn i really want to alt tab

[sharp steeple]

How many classes can I realistically level while doing the MSQ? I like doing dungeons so right now I have a WHM at 44 and a BLM at 32 but my MSQ is only at 27. I don't want to outlevel it so can I level both classes or even a third while doing the MSQ and still stay current?

[modest igloo]

2 is pretty comfy with roulettes, maybe 3

but you can always just pick up higher level classes later

reaper and sage start at 70

[wintry trellis]

Don’t you need a job at 70 before you can pick up those jobs ?

[wintry chasm]

Yes

[pseudo veldt]

I've noticed that Sacred Soil's text (at least on the job guide) says "party members will only suffer 90% of all damage inflicted", while most similar effects (e.g. WHM's Temperance) will say "reducing damage taken... by 10%". Is there any mechanical difference?

[twilit arch]

nope

[modest igloo]

arr tooltips are fun

[wintry trellis]

Translation team something something tool tips mislabeled something something they don’t say some things that do other things something something

[pseudo veldt]

And not nearly as full of pirates as one would hope

[twilit arch]

i mean its not mislabeled in this case

its just awkward wording compared to its counter parts

[wintry trellis]

Was referring to the arr tool tips part

[pseudo veldt]

And now I'm wondering what's the max DR you can stack on one person

(disregarding Hallowed Ground)

[leaden ginkgo]

Was the dungeon xp buff applied to all dungeons or just endwalker?

[wintry trellis]

Endwalker

[twilit arch]

just endwalker dungeons

[modest igloo]

dr?

[honest anvil]

do ex bosses give more spiritbond than trash mobs in dungeons?

[leaden ginkgo]

im a WAR, any reason to keep my "Warior's gear set" or can i just turn in for GC Seals?

[wintry trellis]

If you have better ilvl not rlly aside from glam

[modest igloo]

once you get higher level gear, no

[modest igloo]

about the same

[leaden ginkgo]

ty

[pseudo veldt]

Damage reduction; shorthand from D&D and Pathfinder

[modest igloo]

D&D?

[twilit arch]

dungeons and dragons...

[modest igloo]

oh wait that game mccrees va plays

anyways

uh i think its around like 50%

[graceful bough]

what's the best dungeon to solo at 90 for GC seals and boredom?

[modest igloo]

since defensives are multiplicative

[graceful bough]

doing Ghimlyt now, but feels a tad slow

[modest igloo]

i prefer the lvl 55 dungeon

still easy to one-shot and few roadblocks

[wintry trellis]

||smileton|| is pretty fast and brainless as a warrior.

[patent citrus]

anyone checked the poetics CLL give? I didn't expect to cap it everytime I ran it, last time I check it was 427 (cap to 2000)

I'm wondering if it's just 500, or is it more?

[graceful bough]

yea, Ghim was just to slow 🤣 will try the 2 mentioned, thanks both!

[patent citrus]

back then as lv 80, I solo sirensong, all the green gears give 1.2k each

now probably you can try holmnister

[lime oar]

anyone else having the error 24202 while trying to ay their sub?

[patent citrus]

80 -> 61, 90 -> 71, but then I was wearing BiS of last expansion so might be a bit different

[graceful bough]

Ghimlyt was already close on the first boss @patent citrus as SMN 🤣

so I think that the SHB dungeons might be a bit much

(also doesn't help that the Physick of SMN is about as useful as a dog turd in a restaurant)

[glossy forge]

I am genuinely curious, Why are BSM and ARM different jobs

[patent citrus]

if you need to heal yourself then probably yeah need to do lower level dungeon

I did sirensong as a NIN

[graceful bough]

trying Siren now

[patent citrus]

BSM make weapons, ARM make armor

[pseudo veldt]

The ARM receptionist actually explains how the guilds split apart when you talk to them to get the level 1 quest

[glossy forge]

I must've skipped that part

[pseudo veldt]

BSM guild was first, but techniques for making armor was becoming distinct enough that armorers jumped ship

[glossy forge]

i see

that's actually really interesting thanks

[pseudo veldt]

np

[tight spoke]

Are there ultimate scythes and nouliths?

[honest anvil]

no

in 5 months or so there will be

[patent storm]

What are these?

[forest sage]

vistas for sightseeing log

[tight spoke]

Oohh nice

[blissful tinsel]

Do you gain rested XP from being online in a sanctuary?

[forest sage]

yes

[blissful tinsel]

Kay, thanks.

[last dock]

which gatherers make the most gil?

[tight spoke]

Depends on when in the patch tbh

Right now? Probably ALC, CUL, and then whatever makes this tiers crafted BiS accessories

[last dock]

just now learned there's only three gatherers

[tight spoke]

Oooops i misread that as crafters

[fringe peak]

Does anyone know if there is a way to "force" a macro icon? I'm trying to create some macros for the different color carbuncles and set the icon to "Summon Ruby", etc. However, it keeps auto-updating the icon to "Summon Ifrit" when I place it on my hotbar. Is there a way to force the Ruby icon, or am I stuck?

[last dock]

so do I go Botanist or Miner

[tight spoke]

Irrelevant. Both have needed materials for endgame crafting. Do both

[blissful tinsel]

Honestly, I'd say miners make the most gil because they gather materials used for goldsmiths.

But both are good.

[tidal yarrow]

how much are job skips atm?

[tight spoke]

Ooh that's true. I literally just mentioned accessory crafters lol

[blissful tinsel]

I mean, botanists are good for culinary, but not many people do CUL.

[fringe peak]

botanists are good for carpenter, which is good for housing

[modest igloo]

25$ usd

[tight spoke]

Yup. Carpenters are gonna be in high demand once ishgard housing drops

[tidal yarrow]

wo

[blissful tinsel]

True, which is why both DoL is recommended. You can always focus on the one in higher demand.

[boreal aurora]

im everything lol

[tight spoke]

They were like $8 pre Endwalker lol

[boreal aurora]

all crafting all gathering

[haughty spade]

Anyone know when and where next chi spawn is on Ather?

[uncut quarry]

Question from the msq in ARR patches and kinda HW- ||Do I need to have my drg gear equipped to get all of estinien's references? I got the first one as a scholar but my friend tells me I need to have DRG on during HW||

[open coral]

No. You should get the special dialogues if you've completed the job quests for DRG, regardless of your active class.

[uncut quarry]

kewlz

ty

[ashen adder]

can I check somehow out of the 4 new raids which I can roll in before the reset or I have to test them manually (by killing them again)

[faint flare]

The duty finder tells you in the window

It days REWARDS RECEIVED on it

[ashen adder]

ah right, and one says (2/2) in the end but the others don't what does that mean?

[faint flare]

The blade from 4

Bojza mobs in a group

[dense pier]

Is Passage of Arms as PLD even any good? 100% blockrate... but it's not increasing your damage reduction at all and you can't DPS?

[faint flare]

You don't hold it

You flash it

Use briefly to apply the buff to the group and drop it

[last dock]

What shops sell the clothes for gatherers? Only finding the Battlecraft armorer

[wintry trellis]

It should be like a tradecraft supplier iirc

[last dock]

fieldcraft merchant only sells the tools

Ul'dah doesn't sell the clothes I guess

[deep bough]

anyway to fix this bug? i always got this during phase 2 of ultima

[leaden ginkgo]

what is the max xp bonus can i reach for ew dungeons

[last dock]

oh nvm I found it

why put Gatherer and Crafter gear under "Battlecraft"

[wraith vapor]

The three city states actually have different merchants.

In Gridania, the armors are bought from Independent Tailor while the tools & weapons are from Tool Supplier and Battlecraft Supplier respectively

In Limsa Lominsa, I believe they have Fieldcraft Supplier & Battlecraft Supplier, which sell gatherer/crafter and combat gears respectively

[fossil bloom]

desynthing crafted gear can only yield one of the mats used to make that gear, right?

[wintry trellis]

And sometimes the shiny crafting rocks

[fossil bloom]

you mean elemental crystals?

(i assume that's a yes, btw)

[wintry trellis]

The shiny crafting rocks yes

And some items yield a demimateria

Or whatever they’re called.

[cyan moss]

Do i need to do something to unlock my cap

[faint flare]

Buy endwalker

[cyan moss]

Ok i did

[faint flare]

Register it to your mogstation as normal

[cyan moss]

just did a random duty and got no exp

oh ok

ya i bought it through steam

thought that would be good enough

[faint flare]

You always need to register iy

[willow sandal]

why it caps at 70 and not 80?

[wanton marsh]

it caps at 80 if you have ShB and not endwalker

I dont know how the expacs are broken down atm, so maybe ShB and Endwalker are combined for anyone who has Stormblood

[warm snow]

They don't even own shadowbringers

[wanton marsh]

yea if they are separate you need to buy ShB

owning Endwalker wont do you any good 😅

[forest sage]

they're not separate

but they just don't own shb atm, registering endwalker will unlock shb too

[cyan moss]

ShB came with it

registering now and downloading

[forest sage]

just have to register and then it'll be all good

[wintry trellis]

False

[warm snow]

Wow that's incredible

Every thing that you just said, is wrong

[warm snow]

You have to play shadowbringers to play Endwalker. The sales model is: you can't own an expansion you can't play

[main yoke]

does buying EW still give you the exp earring?

[warm snow]

That's a preorder bonus

There'll be a level 90 equivalent in 2 years

[main yoke]

ah, so not anymore

[warm snow]

Or you can get

And that someone was having them buy only endwalker to get from 70 to 90

[forest sage]

you always only need the lastest expansion, and the starter

[wanton marsh]

my apologies for not knowing

[wintry trellis]

Only thing that’s separate is the collector bundles that you can buy separately. Aside from that buying current expac = the entire story til the end of that expac

[glad robin]

Is it just me or are the nier raids hard to find players for atm? Are ppl just mainly doing the EW content atm?

[faint flare]

Yes..people will get it in roulettes

[slate arrow]

Nier is suffering the Expansion syndrome when it comes to raids aka

less people have it unlocked because it's not required

[lethal mist]

Does it help to pop food before frontline to get 3% extra exp?

[slate arrow]

no

Oh well

If you're getting a "secure hypertext transfer protocol (https)" error, then yes.

That is in fact the internet.

[tiny patio]

anyone know how to change the colour of damage numbers?

[pine onyx]

You need 3rd party tools afaik

I know there's an add-on to show physical damage red and magical blue

[tiny patio]

oh OK ty

[limber apex]

Playing as summoner how do I get my phoneix summoned

[faint flare]

Be 80

[forest sage]

and specifically it'll replace summon bahamut after it's done

[limber apex]

So if I understand I have to summon bahmut and after it turns to phoneix

[faint flare]

Yes, at 80

[limber apex]

Okay what does rotations normally look like

[faint flare]

It doesn't change

[forest sage]

bahamut > 3 colors > phoenix > 3 colors etc

[faint flare]

Phoenix is just bahamut

[verbal anchor]

Question do paladins get an AOE skill other the 2 skills slicing in a circle around them?

[faint flare]

Yes

Holy circle and confedito

[forest sage]

they get an aoe spell and aoe oGCDs

[limber apex]

I'm still kinda new as summoner so was just wondering how rotations play out

[forest sage]

I just explained it, roughly

bahamut > 3 colors > phoenix > 3 colors etc

[verbal anchor]

Holy..circle.. and confedito..? Sounds rather catholic?

[limber apex]

When would I summon ifrit and the others

[forest sage]

3 colors are like, the egis

[faint flare]

After bahamut

[limber apex]

Okay

[remote lintel]

its literally called paladin

[pine onyx]

Paladins are basically holy warriors

[remote lintel]

what did you think they were

[verbal anchor]

Damn I chose the wrong job

I should have gone for ninja

[pine onyx]

You can change now

[verbal anchor]

If anything I'm the opposite of everything that is holy XD

[pine onyx]

It's never too late

[remote lintel]

then be a dark knight

[forest sage]

it's Confiteor too, which is a prayer

[remote lintel]

when you get to heavensward

[verbal anchor]

I know but I came this far

[pine onyx]

Define far :p

[verbal anchor]

I'm allmost lvl 48

[pine onyx]

I switched from dancer to drk in ShB after getting bis

[limber apex]

Does it matter which egis I go with like ifrit > garuda > titan or no

[pine onyx]

48 is nothing

[verbal anchor]

Also

[faint flare]

I'm short no, in optimisation yes

[limber apex]

What would be the best order for the three colors

[verbal anchor]

If I do another job class I get more inventory space on free trail in my armor inventory?

[faint flare]

Whatever the fight determin

[remote lintel]

no

[pine onyx]

Depends on context

And your lvl

[verbal anchor]

Cuz it's getting pretty full

[limber apex]

Oh okay

[remote lintel]

inventory space is set

[pine onyx]

Sell your old gear

[faint flare]

Don't want to be in ifirit when you need to move

[verbal anchor]

But some of the gear are for all classes or mage I been saving selectively

[limber apex]

Okay I guess I just need more experience to diffrent situations

[pine onyx]

Or Garuda during a pull still moving after lvl 86

[remote lintel]

just sell them

[fast hull]

Any tips to do Dead content like I want to go to Zandor but each time I do DR I am the only one there

[remote lintel]

the only times you need to optimize really are in endgame raids

[limber apex]

Okay thanks

[verbal anchor]

But I need gear to spirit bond with me to extract materia?

[remote lintel]

make a pf

[pine onyx]

Go there after EW hype dies down

[remote lintel]

you only build spiritbond when youre wearing the item

[verbal anchor]

Yeah

If got items for mage and all class gear for when I choose to change class

[remote lintel]

if you dont have a caster class now then theyre useless

[verbal anchor]

I have gear above lvl 20 with materia to extract that I can use on other job class if I switch classes

[remote lintel]

then get it back when you switch classes

[pine onyx]

Don't worry too much about gear, you get at least one equipment per dungeon run

Don't waste armory slots on low level gear

[verbal anchor]

I dont follow get it back from the specific same person I sold my gear to?

[remote lintel]

from the same method you got the gear in the first place

[verbal anchor]

Doing g side quest and alot of then

[remote lintel]

why are you doing side quests

dungeons give you gear anyway

[faint flare]

Quest gear is basically bitch crafted gear

[spiral mango]

does the sonar plugin make the same amount of relays as the faloop server?

[verbal anchor]

Aha.. yeah I know from the dungeons. Thats why I'm.. bit over stocked with gear..

[remote lintel]

then

sell it

[verbal anchor]

Sorry to sound weird and all. But it feels so wrong ..

[spiral mango]

by far the most tedious activity in this game, space management

[remote lintel]

you can literally just get it back

[verbal anchor]

On free trail definitely

[remote lintel]

95% of gear in this game can be gotten back

[golden drift]

i need a ninja main's wisdom

[remote lintel]

just ask

[golden drift]

why does this exist

[wintry trellis]

It’s not the fact that zadnor is dead rather the fact that everyone is zadnor is focused on power lvling. I’d be surprised if pf was even able to fill

[golden drift]

when this exists

[faint flare]

For when you die/lose huton

It's recovery

[golden drift]

that would make sense

[quiet acorn]

What is the speed increase of the Bozjan Southern front riding map ? Can't find any info

[lethal mist]

Same as any other map speed increase I believe?

[quiet acorn]

Oh then what's the regular percentage increase ? Im just wondering if its faster to get riding maps compared to flying

[subtle bear]

is it true that sks is bad on rpr?

[faint flare]

Flying is the max speed

[remote lintel]

you can't fly in bozja

[faint flare]

Riding maps in flying areas are basically useless

[quiet acorn]

Damn thanks

[lethal mist]

No flying in bozja so just get map

Otherwise flying is always better and faster

[astral cobalt]

is there one that gives more movement speed between 'peloton' and 'sprint' ?

[faint flare]

Sprint

It's the fastest out of all non mount speeds

Paired with expedient

[astral cobalt]

thanks

[faint flare]

Cause expedient is sprint speed

[astral cobalt]

hmm expedient ? doesn't ring a bell

[faint flare]

Scholar 90 skill

[wintry trellis]

Combat peleton sch ew skill

[astral cobalt]

oh ok, still not done with ShB patches

[faint flare]

The old meme skill from the job trailer that is really good

[quiet acorn]

Un-ironically great

[wintry trellis]

Funny sprint go brrrrr and make people happy or angy

Sounds like no mitigation

[remote lintel]

no mit and also squishier tanks thanks to the stat squish

its pretty common for tanks to almost die in lvling dungeons whether im tanking or healing

[wintry trellis]

[remote lintel]

except war

since it heals itself

did he stand in an aoe

[wintry trellis]

Some mobs do different dmg values. I don’t think it has anything to do with “being squishier” first time I’ve heard that. I would just assume he used mitigation late

Mans probably unleashed all his mitigation after seeing his hp

[remote lintel]

ive grinded the EW and shb dungeons and if i look away for like 2 seconds sometimes the tank is almost dead

from what would be "normal" pulls

its happened to me as a tank even when im cycling mits

[wintry trellis]

The stat squish was a numerical change. The values aren’t drastic enough to call tank squishy

[remote lintel]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

they feel squishier

sometimes i have to stack mits to slow down the dmg enough

[narrow jay]

Also everything got squished, not just player-characters.

[wintry trellis]

^

[willow sandal]

why is it recommended to not queue into 50/60/70/80 dungeons for XP?

[wintry trellis]

Values are still the same. SE did say they will reward proper mitigation timing or something along those lines

[wintry trellis]

Max level dungeons give nothing in terms of exp vs leveling

[narrow jay]

Because the endgame dungeons (all of those ones) are designed with the idea that characters are at max level and no longer need experience, so the experience they give is ass.

[willow sandal]

not the roulette, but dungeons themselves

[remote lintel]

whatever the reason is tanks are just losing hp faster from normal pulls now in EW

[wintry trellis]

It’s the same reason as roulette

[tacit venture]

/micon goes at the bottom

spam the /ac line more and put like <wait.3> on the last one

and then the message after

[narrow jay]

What you also might be missing is that, since a new expansion has dropped, lots of people are coming back to the game, or picking up the game for the first time, and simply do not understand how their chosen class works.

[remote lintel]

as i said it happens to me when im the tank, and ive run with my friend who is a healer main, and we still struggled

[tacit venture]

/ac "Resurrection"
/ac "Resurrection" <wait.3>
/p [Process: Reviving <t>]
/micon "Resurrection"

?

[remote lintel]

yes boss

[narrow jay]

I can assure you that I have felt no significant difference in my rate of HP loss as a tank between ShB and now.

[remote lintel]

in leveling dungeons?

[narrow jay]

Yes.

[tacit venture]

oki ty

[remote lintel]

its been VERY noticeably different for me in like the 40 dungeons ive run unless ive consistently gotten shit players

[wintry trellis]

I’ve yet to see this be the case in EW. The most relevant I’ve seen is in drk lounge when they’re talking about not getting a cool heal mitigation.

Other wise I’d be getting nuked in trial content/savage raids that I’m seeing what the stat squish would have affected

Which I’m not

[remote lintel]

and yeah ive heard a lot of people complain that healing drk is harder

[pallid basin]

so i had my framerate uncapped and its at 120 or so, and then i cap it to 82 and its now hovering around 46, is that supposed to happen?

[wintry trellis]

From all stat testing we have so far I think there are only small adjustments in savage and ultimates. Aside from that most things look to be on par unless the magical math wizards are missing something

[lost grove]

Would it be better to gear my sge or rpr rn for an easier time in game or do both?

[wintry trellis]

Limiting your frame rate isn’t saying “stay at this frame rate” it’s saying don’t exceed it. If the issue is fine when uncapped just leave it at that unless you have a specific reason for going lower ?

[pallid basin]

i had two directx11 crashes yesterday and someone told me capping framerate could help

[wintry trellis]

It depends on what you’re gearing for. If you’re doing raiding stick to one (for now). If casual content why not just do both ig

[pallid basin]

yeah but if its "dont exceed 82" then it should be at 82 if its capable of doing 82 right? cause it was doing like 120 without it so i would imagine it should just lower it to 80 or so

[lost grove]

Just regular stuff..not rdy for raids and besides idk why but healing feels weak to me rn in EW

[wintry trellis]

Not necessarily, I’ve noticed some games on capped rates end up being lower than what that option is. I’ve never seen this big of a deficit though..

[wintry trellis]

It feels weaker more than likely due to the tanks not drk have sustain in normal content, but if you just wanna do casual stuff then get both of them geared

[slate arrow]

Are you using the FFXIV frame limiter or your graphics driver

[pallid basin]

just changed it in the system settings in game

[slate arrow]

yep that would do it

If you need to limit FPS use the graphics card settings

[prime plover]

Where can I get a good gig? I don't seem to see any like that can be bought with scrips

[lost grove]

Ok

[slate arrow]

FFXIV frame limiter us meant to be used in conjunction with vsync

[slate arrow]

You only get the one

[faint flare]

There's only 1

[prime plover]

o lmao k

ty

[wintry trellis]

Just be aware that new tome gear / crafted gear will drop with the savage release on the 4th. So take that information as you will

[lost grove]

[spiral mango]

regarding currency spending guide, i notice that the prices mentioned in the guide are not up to date

what's my option checking them one by one for updated prices or is there a way to check with up to date prices

[wintry trellis]

What currency spending guide

[spiral mango]

teamcraft

[boreal storm]

It shouldn’t have changed though

[spiral mango]

its changed

i just checked

[boreal storm]

Gonna elaborate or?

[spiral mango]

it got cheaper basically

[pine onyx]

Don't think you have other options. You can use universalis to check prices per item, the MB or an add-on listing universalis data

All universalis data will not be exactly up to date though

[spiral mango]

yeah that's the issue.... anyways

[wintry trellis]

I mean I would check MB, then check sale history. the markets fluctuate a lot or so I hear during expac patches

[spiral mango]

well the guide checks both for prices and units sold last week

imagine how much work i would have to do if i checked all items price + amount of sales + multiply per unit

3 things per item

[wintry trellis]

Idk about your server but siren prices change in the span of 8 hours. So basing prices off last week isn’t good

[spiral mango]

last week is how many units sold

though i imagine both of those numbers were relative at about 1 week

anyway kinda inoptimal

[wintry trellis]

I mean if the app isn’t updated properly gotta get old fashioned

[spiral mango]

https://tenor.com/view/reaction-mrw-reactions-sweet-brown-aint-nobody-got-time-for-that-gif-5037097

[slate arrow]

that's a you problem

[spiral mango]

i won't say anything cuz you'll just mute me

[wintry trellis]

Half these resource sites get updated by 1 person or a very small team

[spiral mango]

no, it's done automatically and players need to opt-in to give data to universalis

[slate arrow]

if you want to help the information be up to date, universalis has a ACT plugin, and teamcraft has it integrated with the desktop app

[wintry trellis]

^

[slate arrow]

otherwise don't complain when the data is out of date

[spiral mango]

i didn't complain i just stated that it's not up to date

[wintry trellis]

Anyways

On to the next question

[spiral mango]

im already contributing to univeralis by opting in from xivlauncher, it's still not up to date though

[midnight tinsel]

Rip you i guess

Maybe contact them and offer to pay them for the work

[remote lintel]

because you need more than 1 person to keep it up to date

[midnight tinsel]

Especially on Christmas

[wintry trellis]

It be over with.

Let the questions flow in

[lime ore]

What is the thing gatherers farm to get spiritbond up really quick?

[hot eagle]

highest lvl stuff you can gather like the folklore items, also have your gear melded even cheap melds so it spiritbonds faster

[ashen nova]

is it worth to do 80-81 bozjan?

[hot eagle]

can even use it for 81-90 if your ques are bad like if you play dps, but yeah dungeons would be faster but its an alternative

[open rivet]

yo, dumb question.
friend of mine has been playing on windows via steam,
but they bought a mac - can they continue w/ just their steam license,
or would they need to aquire the mac as well now?

[ashen nova]

i want to level my ast but from 80-81 is little bit hard^^ i hate the shb dungeons 😄

[ashen nova]

#technology-discussion

[leaden ginkgo]

Ay quick question, I just fell off the arena fighting titan, that means I’m dead for the rest of the fight

Do I get xp or nah

[faint flare]

Yes

[hot eagle]

since mac is a separate license from windows/steam your friend would need to buy it again for mac

[open rivet]

ah, even if they launch through steam?
(tbf I have no idea if steam even has a client for mac)

[warm snow]

No idea either

But steam licence replaces windows licence so even then it'll probably need a mac licence

[open rivet]

👍

[warm snow]

Wrong

[ashen nova]

not rly wrong because licenses are a theme about tech^^ thats obvious 😄

[warm snow]

Tech is for actual technical difficulties like driver issues, not for licences

And considering we had the answer anyways

[robust crow]

yea we answer license questions all the time in here

[ashen nova]

well thats strange but nevermind

[inland pasture]

Do you get 580 gear from Pandemonium or the EX trials?

[remote lintel]

#technology-discussion is more about hardware issues or the game crashing

[boreal storm]

Yes

[warm snow]

Yes

[ripe palm]

I want to gift my friend a Phial of Fantasia, but I don't actually play the game myself. Are there any region restrictions or something I should be aware of?

[boreal storm]

Gift the code, that’s it

[warm snow]

Probably need to match account region but I'm not 100%

[spiral mango]

it's done automatically? rofl

[ripe palm]

Hmm, he'll probably be playing on the euro servers

can anyone else confirm if the code is region free?

[warm snow]

A) people actively play less around the holidays B) you're not contributing to a conversation that's already over

[remote lintel]

mogstation items arent region restricted

[warm snow]

I've never gifted shit so I wouldn't know

[ripe palm]

https://store.finalfantasyxiv.com/ffxivstore/en-us/product/1
So I simply buy this and I get a code I can send him on discord?

[remote lintel]

you click the gift button

[ripe palm]

yeah I saw it, it's a bit more convoluted in the other MMORPGs lol

[warm snow]

Oh duh, gift a friend button would definitely be region free

Except China and Korea probably

Yes

This happens with all ex mounts

[ripe palm]

I'll buy it, ty for the help.

How FFXIV's Meta Works

All jobs are good and viable in all content. The difference between meta and non-meta is minor, to the point that player skill is a significantly more important factor. Play what you enjoy/what interests you most, and you can make it work.

[faint flare]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]

I like that meta

[warm snow]

The meta of ff14 is fun

Racial bonuses, nah, massive job balancing issues, fuck that.

There are usually some balance issues when a new expansion comes out due to a large volume of job changes but those are usually addressed by the first high end raid tier

[spiral inlet]

we get one raid item per floor per week right?

[leaden ginkgo]

I wish monk had some type of cat paws as a weapon;-; I’d love that rn

I must of just had terrible friends back then. They told me I couldn’t do it until I was in another expansion because they were farming it

[boreal storm]

I mean the event would’ve told you but ehh

[warm snow]

Okay I've run the whole list of mnk weapons, no cat paws sorry

There's lots of fun dumb gimmick weapons tho as I hope I've shown

[remote lintel]

use mods

[warm snow]

Easier to assume not enough horsepower for mods/console

[leaden ginkgo]

I didn’t know anything about final fantasy. I was clueless of everything because this was my first kind of game like this I ever played so I didn’t know what to do, where to do it or how back then. I just followed what they said because they acted like they had no life by fully maxing out all their classes

[warm snow]

!whoami

[remote lintel]

if you want to know any upcoming events tho you can check the lodestone page

[boreal storm]

Dang already?

[warm snow]

IT ARMORS YOUR TAIL

[remote lintel]

i find it funny that it still puts a tail even when your character doesnt have one

[warm snow]

Really? I've always been a catboi so I wouldn't know

[warm snow]

You'll almost NEVER be locked out of events without basic progress

[leaden ginkgo]

I didn’t mean it that way. It’s just they always talk about final fantasy and nothing else and they’d like to spoil certain things about the game I’d want to experience myself

[warm snow]

MOST events only require level 15 and the starting cities, the ff15 crossover needed level 50 and the yokai event in ShB admittedly had some weapons locked behind msq progress that matched their jobs, dnc and gnb needed sb zones which also started at 60

[fresh dagger]

Who should I play if I like high apm and tanking?

I liked dark knight in shadowbringers but I keep hearing he sucks now

[hard aurora]

hilariously enough, dark knight has the highest tank apm at the moment

[warm snow]

Nin and mch have the highest apm

[finite dagger]

Is it possible to upgrade the skysteel gather tools since the HQ items for the quest no longer exist?

[leaden ginkgo]

I don’t think he sucks. I just think it’s because healers hate the class

[hard aurora]

dark knight has it a bit tougher, but its fine

[warm snow]

Drk is still good, it just didn't get anything particularly fun/flashy in endwalker

[hard aurora]

shadowbringer looks cool at least xd

[warm snow]

PLD got the insane confiteor combo for example

[warm snow]

Afaik that was addressed, besides they're completely inferior now anyways

I really wanna get the elephant costume. Beat people up as a elephant. But the stuff never spawns for me

[boreal storm]

Make sure you’re on a fate tracking discord, it helps so much

What's the difference between Reply (Forward)/Back and Reply Temporarily?

Two separate questions, I suppose.

[wintry trellis]

Is mayonnaise a combat job?

[warm snow]

[granite wolf]

how difficult are the new extreme fights for tanks?

[wintry trellis]

Not at all

[merry merlin]

Ye, its called blue mage

[warm snow]

Lol

[granite wolf]

👀

[leaden ginkgo]

It probably depends on if you know the mechanics and your healers healing you

[warm snow]

There's a tank swap in the first one

That's about as complicated as it gets for tanks specifically

[wintry trellis]

Ex1 is follow the leader with tank swapping. Ex2 is one hold boss then pull your respective adds at a certain part

[granite wolf]

one loot per week?

[wintry trellis]

Not for extreme

[merry merlin]

And a tank stack in the second one. And yeah, pull adds away from the party

[wintry trellis]

Extremes is free loot

[warm snow]

Extremes have never been time limited

And expansion launch extremes are always piss easy

[granite wolf]

alright i suppose ill watch a couple guides and give it a shot, im power gated by raid lockout and want more hp

[spiral mango]

when will boosts be available for sage/reaper?

[boreal storm]

7.0

[remote lintel]

next expansion

[wintry trellis]

Tbh you can blind pug it and be fine. There’s nothing really special about the fights unless you wanna be completely independent and not rely on someone else

[granite wolf]

thats what i like

[wintry trellis]

Fair enough

[spiral mango]

oh wow

[granite wolf]

i dont like having to watch others mid fight

to learn the fight

[remote lintel]

new classes never have level boosts

[wintry trellis]

Yeah to each their own ya know. Wish you the best of luck in mount drops

[remote lintel]

until the next new classes come out

[boreal storm]

No reason to spend X dollars for 10 levels

[leaden ginkgo]

Is faloop a trustable site for fates and stuff. Because I’m looking at it right now and that’s the thing for those to spawn rn but idk if it’s a trustable site

[remote lintel]

i just use the centurio hunt discord

[wintry trellis]

^ the discord mentioned above has people visibly witnessing special fates

usually almost always

If I wanted to gift a friend a game time card, what's a good way to go about it ?

[wintry trellis]

PayPal them money tbh

[uncut quarry]

How do I go from 1st lieut to captain?

in gc

[buoyant loom]

Would it be a mistake to do world visit during these troubling times

[boreal storm]

5 different command missions

[stray kiln]

@wintry trellis hmm ok thanks sir

[uncut quarry]

no more flagged missions?

just that?

[leaden ginkgo]

Ayo palace of the dead floor 50 boss, what do you do against her

[boreal storm]

Of course there’s a flagged mission afterwards

[leaden ginkgo]

You get her down to a quarter health then she just kills everyone with an aoe

[spiral mango]

which level does sage and reaper start on ?

[uneven dune]

P sure normal Shinryu was harder than the 4.0 ex primals

[hard aurora]

70 @spiral mango

[spiral mango]

oh

then there really is no reason to get a boost

[boreal storm]

As is standard with expansion jobs

[spiral mango]

i see

[boreal storm]

20 below cap

[spiral mango]

hmm

[tidal skiff]

How do I light Iron Braziers?

[uncut quarry]

awh man, ty though

[pure quiver]

what is most likely the min ilvl requirement for savage on release?

[tacit plaza]

Fashion report this week calls for a dyable weapon. Any low level options?

[hard aurora]

ironworks iirc

[wintry trellis]

It’ll probs be after 570 range

[river lava]

its been having some issues lately with reporting FATEs accurately but for the most part its reliable

if you're doing chi or david though id definitely be camping these locations

[warm snow]

I got chi done week 2, y'all have fun

[tidal skiff]

How do I light an iron brazier?

[warm snow]

I'm guessing 580

E4 is 425 with E4S being 450

[wintry trellis]

Didn’t see an answer. The tldr is yes during high traffic and no during sleepy time

[boreal storm]

What exactly does the objective say?

[tidal skiff]

Light the brazier, and obtain the bomb claw from the torchlight that is drawn by the flames.

[warm snow]

Cuz you either need to interact or use the item you were given

[wintry trellis]

Sounds about right. We can all infer it’ll be higher than 570 but less than 580

[boreal storm]

Yeah just interact

[tidal skiff]

Thank you!

[warm snow]

Probably gonna be 580 on the day

[wintry trellis]

True

But who knows se might throw a surprise party for us

[leaden ginkgo]

is there an effective way to screw over bots who undercut the market?

kinda tired of them ruining everything

[warm snow]

Entry to the first 2 floors of savage are the cap of the previous tier, but you basically need full of new crafted for the last 2 fights

That's how worlds first goes

[cedar pumice]

about how much would it cost to get a full pentameld at 90 on your chestpiece?

[wintry trellis]

A lot

[warm snow]

A LOT

[boreal storm]

Which is how crafters make money

[warm snow]

Yes and no

[slate arrow]

it's how the grinders make money

[warm snow]

Pentameld costs more in materia than materials

That said you can sell pre pentamelded

[slate arrow]

I guarantee you there's people sitting on 999 stacks of 9s and 10s right now somehow

[cedar pumice]

is it worth it if u dont have that much gil?

[slate arrow]

no

[wintry trellis]

30-60 X’s and 320 ish 9’s is what some people are aiming for. Though hard to say

[slate arrow]

you can get by with min melds when people math it out

[warm snow]

It's barely worth even if you do have the gil

[wintry trellis]

Pentameld is rlly only for high optimization / worlds first

[cedar pumice]

thx

[wintry trellis]

from what I’ve read

[warm snow]

And the servers haven't been stable enough for me to stockpile materia via hunts anyways

[tacit plaza]

Anyone know of any low level dyable weapons?

[warm snow]

There pretty much aren't any below 50

Cuz we didn't even have dye back then

And replicas/glam weapons don't count

[tacit plaza]

Any at 60?

[boreal storm]

50 is easier tho

[delicate mirage]

can I be in multiple fellowships at the same time?

[warm snow]

Imagine having multiple fellowships to even be in

[tacit plaza]

My BLM is 60 right now; stopped to level an alt job since I'm outleveling the MSQ

[boreal storm]

Just do a MSQ roulette and buy ironworks

[delicate mirage]

so yes?

ty

[warm snow]

Yes, but no one uses fellowships outside of rmt sellers nowadays

[warm snow]

All the poetics weapons are dyable

Probably easier to just check the mb after that

[hallow grove]

is there a command for the most recent patch notes?

[warm snow]

No, just check a lodestone channel

I am trying to complete the "YoRHa: Dark Apocalypse" quest line that I started ages ago. I have finished "Komra wasn't built in a day" and also have the "Message from Konogg 1" that you get from the quest "A Message from Konogg". However I cannot see that quest under my completed quests in my journal. The Dig site chief doesn't have any new quests for me to pick up even though he is meant to give me the "A Message from Konogg" quest and the following quest "Dwarves of a Beard". I don't know how to proceed with this questline, any ideas?

[kind blade]

it asks me for a code

seems to be the normal launcher

[alpine shadow]

try relaunching it

[kind blade]

even though it says freetrial on steam??

[alpine shadow]

close and start up again

happens sometimes

if that doesn't work, edit a file on My Documents/My Games/FFXIV/FFXIVCONF and turn "CompletedSomething" to 1

[kind blade]

yeyes

now it seems to work

perfect, thanks 🙂

[alpine shadow]

👍

[warm snow]

I'd you've beaten the final raid the final series of quests takes 6 weeks to complete

I don't remember the names so if that's not what your on, say so

[fringe ridge]

oh, so the next quest should pop up next tuesday?

[warm snow]

Probably

I can see yoko taro convincing them to make it actually be a week wait

[fringe ridge]

i wished it mentioned that somewhere on the wiki, instead of me going crazy for 40 mins lol

thanks for ending my madness

[warm snow]

Remember that it's yoko taro and there's a certain amount of bullshit that always comes along with that

[sly field]

Does anyone know of a mmo similar this? I’m bored and I want to play an mmo but I still can’t purchase ffxiv (if you can dm me an alternative that would be great) 😥

[hard aurora]

hum…

[warm snow]

I'm sorry but

[outer plank]

So why does ||vauthry have a face on his chest ive wondered this for awhile||

[warm snow]

LMAOOOOOO

[warm snow]

Msq will explain

[hard aurora]

@sly field try swtor?

[outer plank]

Ff11

[inland pasture]

Do the EX trials share a weekly gear chest claim, or can you get one from each? What about Pandemonium?

[leaden ginkgo]

how do I get access to the vc?

[outer plank]

No

[warm snow]

EXs are never time locked

[sly field]

Ooo I’ll try that out

[outer plank]

I don’t even remember

[inland pasture]

What about Pandemonium?

[warm snow]

At level 79

[sly field]

Wait, are there any final fantasy games I should play before ffxiv? Or is it a standalone story wise

[hard aurora]

every final fantasy is standalone from each other

[warm snow]

Final fantasy games are almost all single player jrpgs

[hard aurora]

worry not

[warm snow]

They're all standalone, ff11 and 14 are the only mmos

[sly field]

I’ve only played the 8bit ones on the SNES

[warm snow]

And 11 is older than wow

[outer plank]

I’m joking sort of, ff11 is another online mmorpg, the only other ff mmorpg

But it’s so dated it’s not worth the bother

[warm snow]

Ffx is on steam and probably piss cheap in the current sale, probably a good starting point for beginners

Very story focused but fun imo

All ff games are very story focused

[bright forge]

If you're looking specificly story-based MMOs, I've heard that Star Wars The Old Republic has pretty a good story if you like Star Wars stuff.

[warm snow]

As an alternative to your boredom trying out a few ff games could also work

They ain't mmos, but there's lots of fun fanservice for them in ff14

[fast talon]

Does this setting make you move faster? Is there a settings guide?

[warm snow]

There's no setting to make you move faster

[sleek needle]

Prolly if you use a and d as default it's the speed for which it turns

[tidal skiff]

So... does my carbuncle attact automatically or not?

[warm snow]

No

Carbuncle doesnt attack any more

[tidal skiff]

So spells are the only way to attack?

[inland pasture]

Rip Carby

[tidal skiff]

Like spamming ruin?

[warm snow]

And your actual summons

[inland pasture]

I actually preferred the pet job angle over the summoner angle

[tidal skiff]

I'm only level 15

[outer plank]

He’s still an arcanist I think

Yup

[warm snow]

Then yes, spam ruin

[tidal skiff]

Why do the npcs say that carbuncle attacks then?

[warm snow]

Carbys are emotional support pets

[warm snow]

They used to, now they don't

[outer plank]

Because it was reworked this expansion

[warm snow]

Pet behaviour was also super janky

[outer plank]

Outdated text from quest

[inland pasture]

They didn't rewrite the dialogue after the rework

[outer plank]

And such

[outer plank]

Nope still roughly fits with the lore kind of

[tidal skiff]

Only asking because the lvl 10 arcanist guild quest said that carbuncle attacks and I shouldn't spam ruin

[wintry trellis]

just replace carbuncle with your favorite primal

Mentally

[warm snow]

That's never been the case afaik

[outer plank]

Even if that was the case, you would still be spamming ruin while your pet attacks, the people are the arcanist guild are dumb

Don’t think to hard about it, there’s a fine line between game play and story most of the time

It’s just how drastic the arc/summoner changes we’re just made some off dialogue exist

[leaden ginkgo]

I'm trying to do|| odin|| but literally no one is in a party finder for it, is there any other way to play it other than waiting in duty queue for an hour?

[outer plank]

No one does it cause there is no reward associated with it, just progress your game and come back to do it unsynced

Or find some friends

[dire prawn]

If you had Brand-new gear from Halls of the Novice and later got rid of it is there a way to get that gear again?

[twilit arch]

redo the exercises

[dire prawn]

poggers

[sacred apex]

Is there a way to quickly empty the controller hot bar?

[leaden ginkgo]

rip

[wintry chasm]

Just delete each skill

Tbh it doesn't take that long anyway

[twilit arch]

/chotbar remove # all

[wintry chasm]

Wait what?

WHAT

[outer plank]

use a macro

/echo Clearing all <class> hotbars in 5s...
/echo Quickly use another macro to cancel! <se.1>
/crosshotbar Remove 1 all

[wintry chasm]

I've been playing this game for years...

[dire prawn]

This is why Kael is a mentor and you're not

[wintry chasm]

Cal worst mentor 2020

[leaden ginkgo]

What mastery book can I get this from

[hardy token]

I'm thinking about renaming my miqo with their naming conventions.. what i don't get is that Y' is listed as it being spoken as Yah when iirc isn't everyone calling Y'shtola like ishtola? or something i don't have a cutscene in my head right now where they speak her name if its not just shtola or something... i never heard anyone call her Yahshtola...

[wintry chasm]

The demi materia one @leaden ginkgo

Says so below the icon

Master Blacksmith: demimateria

[outer plank]

the y' or what ever letter is a naming convention, i think it has to do with what ever clan or something they are from

[leaden ginkgo]

Oh sorry. I’m stupid rn and I didn’t see that 😓

[wintry trellis]

Dialects/local pronunciation would be easiest answer likely

[wintry chasm]

Dw we are about as stupid as each other apparently

[hardy token]

Its about their clan yes, but its listed as being spoken as Yah

[outer plank]

shurg.

[bright forge]

The Y at the start of her name is what has to do with her clan, but those that are specifically close to her refer to her without it in an informal manner. It acts more as an identifier rather than an actual part of the name.

[boreal storm]

Because if you’re close to her, you drop the Y’

[wintry trellis]

This makes a certain EW npc name funnier knowing this is the correct way

[dire prawn]

Then why don't we call her Shtola?

[bright forge]

Because we're polite? idk

[hardy token]

Yes, but those not close to her i never heard them call her Yashtola or something... it just feels a bit weird... or did we actually never even hear anyone that doesn't know her call her by name?

🤔

[heavy wadi]

yes, a number of times.

[outer plank]

Its usually yish-tol-ah

or m-nag-go

for example

[hardy token]

and the yi part is throwing me off

when it should be ya

[wintry chasm]

Japanese Y'shtola calls herself Yahstola in 4.4 FYI

Pretty sure it's just a JP Vs ENG thing

[hardy token]

Oh so its a translation thing

[wintry trellis]

Yes

[wintry chasm]

Not sure I'd call it a translation thing so much as maybe difference of speech?

[outer plank]

write a letter to yoshi-p demanding that they change the pronuciation to yash-tola in NA

[hardy token]

Just trying to understand the difference i noticed man

No need to get passive agressive about it for asking a question in the question channel

[wintry chasm]

Yeah I was pretty sure it was just a language thing but I took a moment to respond to double check

[warm snow]

Most people call her yshtola, matoya calls her shtola

Similarly krile calls a male miqo without the prefix but I'm not gonna spoil

[hardy token]

I didn't notice actually... does she not recognize the clans?

[wintry chasm]

She does

[warm snow]

They're that close

[hardy token]

ok that makes sense also

[warm snow]

It's like calling someone by their first name, not their family name in Japanese

[wintry chasm]

When one is close to the cat it's a friendly thing to drop the tribe letter

[warm snow]

Very disrespectful unless you're very close

[wintry chasm]

So a close friend of Y'shtola could call her Shtola. If they aren't a friend it's weird af yeah

[warm snow]

Cultural lessons in Japan and eorzea

The more you knooowww 🎵

[wintry chasm]

Tbh it's an English thing as well

[thorn thicket]

Yea, the characters for her name are 「ヤ・シュトラ」(Ya・shutora)

[wintry trellis]

It’s not a common thing as much as it is overseas. not to say we don’t do it but we generally aren’t as strict when it comes to customs and courtesies though that’s for another channel

[wintry chasm]

Mm

[delicate field]

i literally have a retainer full of these item chests. what's a good way to make use of them?

[wintry chasm]

Alt jobs, otherwise use and then sell the item it gives?

[wintry trellis]

Check what the coffee has, check market board for what’s selling good, open on that class and sell

Coffer*

[delicate field]

oh so it rewaards for current class

[wintry trellis]

Whatever class you open it on

[verbal rune]

Any monk player I can ask stuff on how some stuff of the job works?

[delicate field]

oh good to know

[wintry trellis]

!faq thebalance

[zinc orbit]

The Balance

Discord

[wintry trellis]

That would be the best place to go for job knowledge doesn’t hurt to ask here though

[warm snow]

Weskalber old guide up to 50 then get back to us for some more specifics/Endwalker changes

[verbal rune]

I'm lvl 70

Does shapeless fist make so bootshine always crit?

[warm snow]

!action bootshine

[zinc orbit]
