I have a question. My friend is trying to buy the upgrade (stormblood and up) and has an existing account already.... The patch notes say you're able to buy the upgrade to continue playing, but its not letting him, and putting him on a wait list.... anybody have any ideas?

patent citrus
#

get them, they are useful

errant mesa
#

Uh? Get two retainers?

covert marlin
patent citrus
#

you need them to sell stuffs

errant mesa
#

boreal storm

You do know they could be on trial?

little fulcrum
fluid oracle
#

errant mesa
#

No

patent citrus
#

what's your MSQ level?

fluid oracle

Chocobo saddlebag is darked out for me

Then you need to unlock it

How do I make my chocobo fight?

You can unlock the ability to have your chocobo also be an overworld party member and fight alongside you when you reach level 30 and have completed the quest My Feisty Little Chocobo . As the tutorial states, you do need to feed your bird gysahl greens in order to summon them. Click here for a list of npcs that sell them.

What trees do spec into for my chocobo?
The typically recommended chocobo skill point allocation is to get 4 ranks into the healing tree for choco cure, followed by maxing out the DPS tree. The tank tree does not allow your chicken to gain enough enmity to surpass your own output, so its shelved for last. You can eventually max out every tree, though to level your chocobo past rank 10 you will need Thavnairian Onions

patent citrus

!faq retainer

zinc orbitBOT
#
Retainer Guide

What is a retainer?
A retainer is a private NPC that will act as a personal bank for the player, holding up to 175 different items, that can be summoned to any of the Summoning Bells around the world. Retainers also act as your means to sell on the Market Board.

How to unlock a retainer
First, you must complete the quest The Scions of the Seventh Dawn then go to speak to any of the Retainer Vocates located in the market district of any of the major cities.

What are Retainer Ventures?
Ventures are the means to send out your retainers on missions to bring back items for you and can be unlocked by completing the quest 'An Ill-conceived Venture' (Ul’Dahn), (Gridania), (Limsa Lominsa)

little fulcrum
#

This guy doesn't have retainer, presumable Free Trial

fluid oracle
#

patent citrus
#

#

!faq msqtracker

zinc orbitBOT
#
MSQ Tracker image guide
  1. Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.

  2. An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.

By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.

patent citrus
#

no 2

#

It's quite important, so the game will tell you to unlock it when you can access it

little fulcrum
#

huh, didn't know no 2 can contains anything other than the Job Quests

patent citrus
#

It will show like the req of crystal tower if you haven't unlocked it

#

if you are locked from MSQ, something like that

little fulcrum
#

Speaking of which, when does Crystal Tower locks you off?

faint flare
#

2.5

patent radish
#

What do people mean by E9 or E11S? I search stuff on savage raids and see this

patent citrus
#

Eden floor 9 is E9

faint flare
#

Raid, floor number, savage

patent citrus
#

if it's followed with N, it's normal

little fulcrum
patent citrus
#

if it's an S, then savage

scarlet sandal
#

Is smoked chicken still good for DPS food I don't even know I still have like 20 left over

patent radish
#

Thank you!

faint flare
#

It locks you there for hard mode primals

#

So just both at oncr

jade quartz
#

At cap you should get some current food though

#

Level 80 food has lower stat caps

patent citrus
#

yeah, more vit means more survavibility

#

gives your healer easier job -> everyone's happy

little fulcrum
#

Hard Primals aren't related to Crystal Tower, so idk why it locks you there exactly. I was expecting something like (End of EW) ||Nero comes in to ask for Omega ressurrection||

scarlet sandal
#

I mean it should be good enough X1 though yeah

#

Just burn through my Supply

faint flare
#

There's new food on the 4th so

#

hi guys im trying to understand POTD levelling, im jumping in at lvl 1.. if I die in POTD I come back to quarrymill with no exp gained.. how do I gain real world exp through potd, do I have to make it to floor 10 and then my exp gains will be saved? 🤔

patent citrus
#

yeah

boreal storm
patent citrus
#

need to finish floor 10, and I think you need to be matched with other people too

#

can't go solo and get real world exp

faint flare
#

You get set amount of xp every 10 floors

jade quartz
#

Hard primals involve ||Minfilia and the Scions|| and they want to remove them from the questgiver location because of MSQ developments

robust abyss
#

ahh ok thats it then, thanks @patent citrus

carmine stream
#

Does anyone know when the home world transfer service will be available again?

faint flare

carmine stream
little fulcrum

stoic eagle
#

Maybe I'm just super unlucky but is the Naigama of the Crimson Lotus (the scythe) that drops from Kugane Castle, Ala Mhigo and The Temple of the Fist, bugged? I've ran kugane castle about 70 times and haven't seen it at all.

jade quartz

little fulcrum
#

you're usually not casting, btw

dapper oyster
#

can i buy level 90 crafter equipment with white script or it has to be purple?

little fulcrum
#

when THE LAG happens

visual sandal
#

i ended up hard casting imapct like 4 times bc it froze on me, and I used all my dualcasts on jolt

jade quartz
#

A broken cable is not “serverside”

#

It’s an issue with international internet infrastructure, nothing to do with Square Enix

balmy gate
#

sorry to keep asking about the congestion stuff but I'm completely new to ff and wondering if they've locked downloads like this before

faint flare
#

No

jade quartz
#

This overpopulation is unprecedented

#

There’s been an incredible population boom

real sequoia
#

Should I be lvling gatherers before crafters?

jade quartz
#

Sure, it’s a logical approach

#

There’s no absolute right answer

balmy gate
#

huge W for the devs getting a game to be so good they have to stop selling it

dense pier
#

Someone said they're hosting Under/Over! 50k min/no max? Wtf is that?

dense pier
faint flare
#

The over/under game

jade quartz
#

Roll dice using the /random command and people guess whether it will be higher or lower than the last number

little fulcrum
#

something my FC is very keen on ^^

wide cargo
#

brittle oak

aight ty

last dock
#

New to hunting, how do you get A and S rank hunts? Just did the weekly elite hunt in Sharlayan and it was a B rank

faint flare
#

They don't have bills

jade quartz
#

You don’t need to pick up a bill for those

faint flare
#

Just show up and smack

jade quartz
#

They spawn in the world, kill em and get instant reward

fluid oracle
#

Help i cant get retainers because my inventory is almost full and im not MSQ lvl 30 yet. Should i just cancel my World visit to my home world? its been 40 min and im in queue 23
edit: 5 min later, pain

jade quartz
#

A ranks spawn every 4–6 hours, people routinely join “hunt trains” which are scheduled times when everyone goes and kills all of them in every zone

#

S ranks spawn every… I wanna say 48–72 hours + have a special spawn condition which players have to fulfil to get it to pop

last dock
#

yeah learned about that when watching a video on the hardest to get mounts

#

something like 1000 A ranks and 3000 S ranks

pure copper
#

am i blind? i cant find the scrips merchant in ishgard/foundation

pure copper
#

oh. not even in the firmament?

jade quartz
#

Except Rowena’s representative

#

Firmament does have two yeah

urban grotto
#

can I turn off level sync for command quests?

viscid moth
#

How many of the new tomestones in 6.1 can i get approximately in a average hunt train?
(haven't done one yet so I've no idea at all)

hot burrow
#

so i started the game with a pugilist class and changed to machinist and got machinist to 90. do i still get the exp bonus for secondary class?

pure copper
#

the ishgard rowena rep/firmament scrips npcs have all the white scrips stuff a regular one would tho, right?

urban grotto
pure copper
faint flare
#

As long as the job is under the highest level job you have. They get bonus xp

hot burrow
#

ahhh ok thanks

pure copper
#

good enough for me

lilac crystal
#

Does extracting materia negatively affect the equipment in any way?

faint flare
#

No

hot burrow
#

still new to this but read online for aether current there's 15 each map (10 from open world, 1 main mission, and 4 from side quest) is this true?

#

and how do i know which side quest is it?

faint flare
#

It's blue

true jolt
faint flare
#

And rewards a current

hot burrow
#

ahhh i see. i see those often

#

thanks

pure copper
#

on the menus bar, u can go travel > aether currents to see what youre missing (yellow is quest, green is world exploration)

jade quartz
true jolt
jade quartz
#

4

true jolt
#

Bruh its 4? What a year to be sprout

hot burrow
#

ah ok thanks

heavy wadi
#

there isn't a solid answer

viscid moth
#

are there so many A rank rares?

#

and i get 10 per kill, right?

jade quartz
#

Two per zone, six zones, three instances of each zone

#

360 Astronomy tomes from a full train

errant mesa
#

You mean aphorism?

jade quartz
#

No

urban grotto
#

Do I have to do 5 command missions to rank up and become a first flame lieutanant?

jade quartz
#

I mean Astronomy which is what was asked about

#

Post 6.1 drop A ranks will drop 10 astronomy each

twilit arch
#

1st LT just requires you to have 1 squadron at 40

urban grotto
#

it won't let me rank up. the hell.

errant mesa
#

Do you keep your rank if you switch companies?

urban grotto
#

wait so I need 4 level 40 members?

errant mesa
#

What about if you switch and come back

jade quartz
#

Complete your level 40 squadron flagged mission to reach 1st Lt

twilit arch
#

just 1, but likely wont be able to do the flagged mission at that point

jade quartz
#

Requires 3/3 squadron stat requirements for the mission to be met in order to succeed so you’ll likely need all four members to be a bit higher than 40

boreal storm
#

You have to re rank in the new GC, but you’re still a X lieutenant/Captain for the first one

trim sedge
#

some scholar questions ;w; sorry if too much!!!

when to use protraction? what about how to optimally use seraph?

is it worth to use succor + emergency tactics or should you just use fey blessing/indom?

errant mesa
#

Interesting

#

What happens to your squadron?

urban grotto
#

is there a benefit to doing a levelling duty roulette at level 82?

twilit arch
#

gets frozen until you hit 2nd LT

#

then you can utilize them again

urban grotto
#

so I get a lot of xp to level up or?

rustic badge
#

Q: I have blue gear that I can't sell but I dont need anymore,..just delete it?

boreal storm
#

Leveling roulette bonus still scales to your level, that’ll never change

rustic badge
#

and GC wont take it wither

boreal storm
#

Glam if you want, you can always rebuy it

limber hound
rustic badge
#

ok,..ty.

errant mesa
#

Desynth if possible

#

Or for retainers

rustic badge
#

oh,..lemme try that, I guess

#

I dont even see Desynth in my options :/

limber hound
#

desynth is if you have crafting classes

errant mesa
#

Then you don't have it unlocked

twilit arch
#

it may not be desynthable

errant mesa
#

This too

rustic badge
#

is there a desynth vender/

astral scaffold
#

||after trying to do the "Good Intetions" questline, I had my progression stopped by not being able to find The Naval (Hard) and The Howl Eye (Hard). Is there a reason for why they aren't showing up in my Duty Finder?||

twilit arch
#

it sounds like its probably AF gear so can just toss

errant mesa
#

But the option should be greyed out

rustic badge
#

nothing to grey out

limber hound
boreal storm
#

Go to waking sands

limber hound
#

What blue gear is it anyway

rustic badge
#

antiquated

#

for example

#

few named ones

boreal storm
#

That’s AF gear

#

You can always rebuy it

rustic badge
#

I see got it.

patent citrus
#

yeah I think only ARR and HW need to rebuy with seals

twilit arch
#

HW is the only one that requires you to rebuy thru centurio seals

#

50/70 are on the calamity salvager

patent citrus
#

oh weird, why did I remember I need to trade something to get mine

boreal storm
#

80/90 are from the vendor you originally got them from in msq

patent citrus
#

is it the dyeable one?

twilit arch
#

the dyeable version requires you to exchange items to augment

chilly wave
#

Do all beast tribes have the same max rank or does ARR beast tribe have a lower one

rustic badge
#

dyable, yes

patent citrus
#

oh you are right

errant mesa
#

Same max

twilit arch
#

and the i90 recolour set is from the antique stuff from 3 of the 50 dungeons

errant mesa
#

"Bloodsworn" as I recall

boreal storm
#

Everyone else goes up to 8

#

Then allied if applicable

astral scaffold
twilit arch
#

"Allied" is the max rank for them, but requires all of the ARR tribes to be at appropriate reps. Trusted for Non-Ixali, Sworn for Ixali

#

once you've done that there's an additional quest to do

#

and that raises them all to allied

floral robin
#

hey guys i have question for gathering jobs. I have both miner and botanist around lv 80, but the gathering gear sucks. i was wondering where i can exchange for blue gathering related gear?

urban grotto
#

why does krile have miqo'te eyes?

yeah the hoodie just have a catears

twilit arch
#

she has normal plainsfolk eyes

urban grotto
#

oh.

patent citrus
#

she doesn't actually have a catears heh

errant mesa
#

Does stormblood have the mix of crafters and such for beast tribes or did that start in shb

twilit arch
#

namazi does both crafting and gathering

errant mesa
#

Oh ew

twilit arch
#

shb is when they did the separate tribe for each

fluid oracle
#

how do you lvl up mount speed? idk what i did

errant mesa
#

Buy a scroll

boreal storm
#

Do msq

errant mesa
#

In shb and ew it's a gem vendor

Buying a riding map has 0 point

errant mesa
#

I still buy em

floral robin
#

is there any pre-quest i need to do to unlock the blue gear for gathering?

errant mesa
#

warped nest
#

Challenge log just give you some bonuses weekly

errant mesa
#

Challenge log gives huge exp bonuses for all classes

patent citrus
#

wait challenge log isn't MSQ?

warped nest
#

It is nice if you plan to do specific PvE contents anyway

boreal storm
#

Nope

gray crescent
#

Any miner here? looking for something to mine for a quick gil

errant mesa
#

Eureka, DoW/M, chocobo xp, crafter, gatherer

patent citrus
#

ow I forgot, I thought it's MSQ

visual sandal
#

how far back was challenge log even

patent citrus
#

but I picked up all blue quests sooo

errant mesa
forest sage
#

well it's lvl 15, so that far back

visual sandal
#

oh its in limsa

errant mesa
#

It's also great for MGP

gray crescent
warped nest
#

I did almost all side quest back then when I was playing ARR

visual sandal
#

thats why I haven't even seen it

errant mesa
warped nest
#

The only one I didn't do are coils, and that one side quest near vesper Bay, where you need to solve riddles to find the next quest location

visual sandal
#

is relic stuff always gonan be BiS when theyre fully done n stuff

errant mesa
#

Some enthusiast might have the electrum ore market cornered, so you'll always have to check yourself

patent citrus
#

only for the respective relic expansion

warped nest
#

@visual sandal yes

errant mesa
#

Shards are a safe bet

forest sage
#

just check the prices of stuff you can mine, probably most of the basic stuff in EW is the same price though

boreal storm
patent citrus
#

so the previous expansion relics are just for cosmetic

errant mesa
#

Timed nodes will usually be worth more

#

If you make the ingots yourself you can make a nice sum

warped nest
#

Previous expansion relics are still the best weapon but they are so not worth the effort for their stat

gray crescent
#

@errant mesathank you. im just a casual miner

warped nest
#

Since you'd outgrow them as you move into the next expansion

visual sandal
#

but I could just entirely not do relics, yes?

#

even for the EW one

twilit arch
#

correct

warped nest
#

Yeah, it is entirely optional

twilit arch
#

relics are optional

patent citrus
#

yeah, don't need them

visual sandal
#

amazing

errant mesa
#

The bozja one has a good deal of story tho

patent citrus
#

they all ended up as cosmetics

gray crescent
#

was happy yesterday cause i fianlly have a stone worth gathering, and behold today. the price is so low now

dapper oyster
#

can we get purple script from custom delivery?

visual sandal
#

but say if I do want to get one for cosmetic stuff

#

how long would that take

visual sandal
#

bc I wanted to get the eureka armour for glam

warped nest
glass comet
#

Anyone know if there's a way I could make it so that my DoT pings when expiring

visual sandal
#

but im not sitting through 20+ hours of grinding for that

errant mesa
#

Depends which one really

warped nest
visual sandal
#

alright so never touch relic weapons got it

errant mesa
#

They are some of the best glams so

patent citrus
#

then you won't get the armor

warped nest
#

Best glam is highly subjective

gray crescent
visual sandal
#

fine by me

warped nest
#

Not everyone like the same thing

dense pier
#

I'm looking at Community Finder and was wondering what the Active Members numeral even means? Active how?

Raid drop exchange at radz?

Lol

For example, potent spice is a botany timed node at 90. During the day, it drops to 500 gil each. But overnight it jumps back up to 1k easily

urban grotto
#

where do I find the allagan tomestone vendor in shadowbringers?

patent citrus
#

crystarium

warped nest
#

Or eulmore

patent citrus
#

blue pouch NPC close to the aetheryte plaza

forest sage
#

crystarium has general one, eulmore old ones

visual sandal
#

is bozja faster to do than eureka

errant mesa
#

It's a different grind

urban grotto
#

where in the chrystarium?

#

ok

forest sage
#

kinda, but no one does the necessary dungeon stuff to progress

warped nest
#

Next to the main aetheryte

boreal storm
#

Same with every sundry vendor

urban grotto
#

uh which is the best gear for tomestones?

vital nacelle
#

I do believe I've done Ivalice and Nier raid, but why they are not yet listed in NG+? Did I miss something?

warped nest
#

I assume you finished the base 5.0 Shadowbringers story right?

urban grotto
#

at chrysterium

boreal storm
#

Crypt

gray crescent
#

btw did the timeworn dragonskin gil got nerf? from endwalker?

forest sage
#

the one with the bigger numer(crypt)

visual sandal
#

man why is there so much grind stuff

patent citrus
errant mesa
#

It's a mmo

boreal storm
#

It’s a rpg

warped nest
#

@vital nacelle did you finish the follow up quests to complete their story line?

vital nacelle
#

Oh they have?

warped nest
#

If you just did the 3rd alliance raid, and didn't do the remaining story quests

errant mesa
#

Mmorpg, or massively mundane overdone progression grind

forest sage
#

nier has like 6weeks of weeklies before you can get NG+, ivalice just a few quests

errant mesa
#

Bacon bread is something I'll never get

vital nacelle
#

Hmm... I'll check Prima Vista again then

warped nest
#

Most video games come with a form of grind or another

#

Even doing PvP in first person shooter or fighting game, is some kind of grind

vital nacelle
urban grotto
#

can I still get poetics from after redoing roulettes for the first time?

warped nest
#

Only if the dungeon itself rewards it

boreal storm
#

Daily bonus

warped nest
#

Roulette will not offer any more daily bonus until we reach the next day

urban grotto
#

ok.

forest sage
patent citrus
#

you can level your alt at Bozjan/Zadnor

#

you'll cap poetics fast

urban grotto
#

wdym alt\

boreal storm
#

Trick question, ironworks

patent citrus

jade hedge
#

Well, atleast I have time to read three body problem now. Thanks for the answer

patent citrus
#

Poetics or aphorism or 83 ex

Because you’re a samurai

I did a leveling duty on DF, but I didn't get the anthrocluster. Was there something I missed?

patent citrus
#

need to be 80+

#

and role in need

twilit arch
#

were you the role in need when you queued/finished the dungeon and 80+?

broken fable
#

The dungeon needs to be 80+?

twilit arch
#

no

patent citrus
#

your job

twilit arch
#

You need to be lvl 80

Ah, I see where I fucked up. No, I wasn't the role in need. Got it

I'm looking at Community Finder and was wondering what the Active Members numeral even means? Active how?

median agate
#

Hi, sorry for the question. I just hit 60 and beat Heavensward. I was going to spend some of these poetics since I've been capped for ages, but it looks like the only gear offered is i130 still?

#

Is there something I'm missing perhaps?

#

Thank you 🙂

boreal storm
#

Wrong vendor

median agate
#

Oh, I see

#

thank you!

boreal storm
#

Foundation or idyllshire

#

Buy shire gear

errant mesa
#

Gold ore is a timed node? The heck

queen fern
errant mesa
#

I do have one

#

But that's still an hour per trip

queen fern
#

The caveat is that you have to have gathered gold ore yourself at least once.

errant mesa
#

Oh lmao

queen fern
#

The time spent gathering and the yield per venture will go up as your retainer's gathering and perception scores go up.

#

So keep them geared up.

opaque anvil
#

Why are some tanks I party up with don't feel as tanky as others

#

Is it because they don't use their cooldowns?

forest sage
#

bad gear/bad cooldown usage

errant mesa
#

Gear

opaque anvil
#

They had 85 gear

errant mesa
#

Then cooldowns

twilit arch
#

then probably bad at rotating cds

forest sage
#

then just cooldowns, a lot don't even press their 25s free skill

urban grotto
#

bozjan/zadnor?

opaque anvil
#

What's the other GNB cooldowns?

#

The 30% miti and the 82 skill?

forest sage
#

rampart, nebula, heart of corundum and the parry shit

cursive ridge
forest sage
#

also arm's length and reprisal

urban grotto
#

relic weapons?

opaque anvil
#

Yeah they don't use anything aside from Rampart

cursive ridge
#

the purple weapons that are a massive grind

#

but they look nice

urban grotto
#

and I get poetics from it too?

cursive ridge
#

no

urban grotto
#

is it worth doing right now?

opaque anvil
#

Felt like it was my mistake when they had to do Bollide on the very first pull of 85

cursive ridge
#

if you want the glamour of those weapons

#

plus bozja/zadnor are nice for leveling from level 71

opaque anvil
#

I even put on my Aquaveil, Benison, and Regen

#

And their HP melted so fast

errant mesa
#

Are you seeing them use their cooldowjs

urban grotto
#

is the orbonne monasery hard?

opaque anvil
#

I only ever saw them use Rampart

round nimbus
#

Does anyone know where I can find an up to date optimal BLM rotation (excluding pots) to use?

errant mesa
#

Lol

opaque anvil
#

I dunno what the icon for Heart of Corundum or Nebula or the other cooldown is

#

Do you guys have a list of player icons

#

So I know if the tank is using their cooldowns or not

patent citrus
#

for macro

#

use /macroicon -> tab -> space -> type "heart" -> tab -> choose your skill

errant mesa
#

He's asking how he can tell

#

!action Heart of Corundum

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Heart of Corundum** : lvl 82 GNB (25.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Reduces damage taken by a party member or self by 15%.

left whale
#

i dont think theres an easy way to just know without memoriing everything

errant mesa
#

That's the icon for the gnb

patent citrus
#

oh right

left whale
#

i suppose u could hover ur mouse over the icon if they'e used it

patent citrus
#

🤦‍♂️ yeah just check the party list...

forest sage
#

it has a few icons actually

opaque anvil
#

I use controller

patent citrus
#

party list has them

opaque anvil
#

So I gotta memorize the icons

errant mesa
#

I would say you should just know the main role ones

opaque anvil
#

Which is why I asked for the icons

errant mesa
#

!action Nebula

zinc orbitBOT
#
**Nebula** : lvl 38 GNB (120.0 second cooldown)(Instant cast time)

Reduces damage taken by 30%.
Duration: 15s

left whale
#

oh, well...
maybe not the best advice, but you could just not give 2 shits what they are doing
as its hardly within your power to do anything bout it

patent citrus
#

oohhh I get it now

opaque anvil
#

If I stopped giving two shits about their cooldowns the tank won't last long

#

And I'd eventually run out of mana and they'll die

#

And we wipe

left whale
#

that sounds like.. their fault

boreal storm
#

Or that doesn’t happen

patent citrus
#

yeah, care about your gameplay first

#

before checking for others mistake

#

that's like the first thing you should do, not pointing fingers

left whale
#

im more like gauging rate at which hp goes down more so than "how many cooldowns does the tank have or dont have"

opaque anvil
#

Like I said, I put on Benison and Regen pre-pull, then Asylum when he stops and Holy 3 spam

#

Put Aquaveil when after a while and Regen

#

He still melts

left whale
#

sounds good :v
you could also just.. move past this incident of the shit tank

opaque anvil
#

I'm asking this so I can learn

winter jetty
#

regen alone usually isn't enough as far as I can tell

opaque anvil
#

Isn't this the point of the channel

#

Of course I also use Tetra or Solace when needed

left whale
#

oh absolutely

#

so there are these tank faqs
such as this one
!faq pldmiti

#

such as that one

#

that just brings up a list of each tanks mits

#

and combinations

urban grotto
#

how do I remove glamour from a weapon?

winter jetty
#

also as whm you can just target the tank the whole time during trash pulls

patent citrus
#

then just cast glamour like usual

urban grotto
#

so idk what to do

#

my weapon won't change back

errant mesa
#

Update the plate

urban grotto
#

it is updated?

patent citrus
#

right click/square your weapon

#

then cast glamour

#

then choose remove

#

it will cost 1 glamour dispeller

storm cosmos
#

anyone got a list of the 6.0 hats that work on viera?

winter igloo
#

are sea players experiencing packet loss?

patent citrus
#

afaik they do, yeah

urban grotto
#

alright did it, thanks

icy thicket
#

yo is it reasonable to use the duty finder for a raid

#

I just unlocked the first one

patent citrus
#

if it's a normal raid, yeah

#

unless it's coil of bahamut

errant mesa
#

Bahamut? No. After that? Yes

icy thicket
#

it's labyrinth of the ancients

#

that's not bahamut is it?

patent citrus
#

ah yeah just DF it, it's an alliance raid

errant mesa
#

All alliance raids are fine

So, I've finally figured out what has been causing my connection troubles this entire time. It's the firewall in Windows Defender. One problem is...that firewall can't be turned off. When you turn it off, Windows will just turn it back on at a random time, and instantly disconnect from FFXIV.

Does anybody have any idea how to solve this without turning it off? I've already added every single EXE in the game files to the exceptions list and it still keeps happening.

# lost lily i live in thailand atm

Idk if Thailand is affected or not, but SG and MY and all countries in SEA are currently affected by a problem with undersea cables starting 2 days ago.
There was supposedly an earthquake (i can't find any info on this, or any announcements that this was a cause) that caused it

Around what level In Summoner do you get to summon the Primals as your pets?

limber hound

fresh dagger

I cant check market board because free trial

just use them yourself

fresh dagger
#

Free trial has a gil limit of 300k

patent citrus
#

I know, but why would people buy those from mb when they can buy them from NPC

fresh dagger
#

Ideally I would keep like 50% of the value

#

But now

naive ridge
#

you might have been better off buying dyes

#

especially the beast tribe ones, people are lazy to teleport there to buy them

fresh dagger
#

Ah well

naive ridge
#

and depending on the market can sell for a profit

fresh dagger
#

Can anyone give me the price at least?

#

I have 3366 units of grade 7 and idk what to do with them

Healing Up Buffs

There's two notable types of healing up buffs in the game. The most common for healers to have is written as 'increases healing magic potency.' Skills with this phrasing buff the outgoing healing done from GCD heals only by the person(s) with this buff applied, and it does not affect oGCD heals.

Healer actions with this effect:
• Neutral Sect (AST)
• Fey / Seraphic Illumination (SCH | applies to the whole party)
• Dissipation (SCH)
• Temperance (WHM)
• Zoe (SGE)

The other type is written as 'HP recovery via healing actions.' Skills with this phrasing increase the amount of incoming heals on the target with this buff and the increase is applied to ALL heals, including oGCDs. With the exception of Asylum, these skills come from non-healer roles, so it's helpful to know how they function.

Actions with this effect:

# leaden ginkgo is there a "meta" class?

Everything is pretty well balanced. Even at this early stage in the expansion, things are pretty solid. There are a couple DPS classes that do slightly more than the others but even that is only a couple percentage points more.

#

Play what you find fun and it'll work out

urban grotto
#

why can't I use the aether compass? it's crossed out

boreal storm
#

Duty > collection

urban grotto
#

thanks

jovial quarry
#

It has been moved to your Collections window. You can reassign it to a hotbar from there

urban grotto

thanks!

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.

patent citrus
#

the only meta is you enjoying the class you play

urban grotto
#

does xp scale for trials roulette?

patent citrus
#

yeah

#

all roulettes scale

urban grotto
#

alright, thanks!

patent citrus
#

only the bonus however

#

so just make sure you do it only once a day

boreal storm
#

Except guildhest because it sucks

leaden ginkgo
#

is there a website like wowhead for ffxiv?

urban grotto
#

gotcha

patent citrus
#

not sure, consolegames maybe

#

but if you have any question, can just ask here

urban grotto
#

hey if there aren't any aether currents detected in my area, did I get them all?

naive ridge
#

yes

urban grotto
#

cool. thanks

naive ridge
#

the rest are in sidequests (blue) if you still cant fly

patent citrus
#

yeah, then you need to finish the quests left

boreal storm
#

You can see in the travel menu

naive ridge
#

and usually one for clearing that area in the MSQ

urban grotto
#

ok

covert marlin
#

anyone from malaysia experiencing higher than average ping?

narrow jay
#

Apparently something funky happened with the undersea internet cables there a few days ago. I haven't found any official news about it, but several of my Malay acquaintances were all dropped from the game at the same time. Could be residual effects of that.

covert marlin
#

I managed to get back into the game few hours after everyone got booted out of the game and the ping wasn't this bad. 🥲

#

Is there a way to turn off hotbar cycling on controller?

errant mesa
#

Yes

#

By deleting your other hotbars lol

#

Really a few different ways I suppose

patent citrus
#

you mean crossbar cycling?

#

why turn it off in the first place? You gonna need it to access mount action

last mural
errant mesa
#

Hotbar settings have a plethora of options for you to mess with

forest sage
#

do a traceroute and find out

sour rock
#

did energy drain on scholars heal you before the endwalker patch?

forest sage
#

yes

sour rock
#

i know it used to give mana, but did it used to do both

forest sage
#

it also gave mp but now it only heals, no more mp

sour rock
#

ty a friend didn't think it always healed

forest sage
#

it healed ever since ARR

#

not by a substantial amount but still

sour rock
#

yup! so they moved the mana regen onto aetherflow, does it equal the same amount of mana % overall?

forest sage
#

depends on how many energy drains you used before

#

it's a net nerf, but they also buffed lucid and honestly I don't think you can run out of mp on SCH

#

unless you're spamming adlo/succor

sour rock
#

they buffed lucid??

forest sage
#

little bit yeah

#

it's like 5 or 10 potency per tick more or whatever

twilit arch
#

5 pot per tick

#

went from 50 to 55

sour rock
#

nice, and do the abilities Fey Illumination/Whispering Dawn shares the cooldown of their Seraph counterparts? like if you cast Whispering Dawn and then summoned Seraph would the ability be able to be cast again? (i know they wouldn't stack)

livid galleon
#

What do you do with the fledgling chocobo registration

trim sedge
sour rock
#

i wonder what the purpose of renaming those abilities were

storm sapphire
#

So am I doin something wrong or does summoner’s physick barely do any healing? Is it tied to piety?

trim sedge
#

dont use physick on summner really

storm sapphire
#

That’s kinda silly

outer mural
#

it scales with piety so it blows dong after like level 50

#

never use it

tall mountain
#

it’s tied to mind i think

forest sage
#

scales with mind, but yeah

outer mural
#

or err yeah, sorry, mind

#

confused the words

tall mountain
#

either way, makes it terrible

outer mural
forest sage
#

they should have removed it and made the shield a trait to change physick into the shield

storm sapphire
#

But rdm does scale, right?

forest sage
#

but instead they left it yet again

outer mural
#

yes rdm's does scale

forest sage
#

rdm is int scaling yeah

outer mural
#

it's just smn's healing that blows chunks

#

every other healing ability on non-healers does proportionally scale with the class

trim sedge
#

if ur doing large pulls, as scholar, is it better to use biolysis (dot) on them all or is it better to just start art of war spamming?

forest sage
#

depends on how many mobs you can hit and how long the mobs will stay alive, doesn't make much of a difference for dungeons though

#

generally it'll be better to aoe if there's 3+ mobs but I haven't actually checked the numbers

dense pier
#

Field vs quick exploration, which for EXP?

outer mural
#

otherwise at 5 and above spam art of war

forest sage
#

yeah on this comparison, 4 and higher specifically

#

4targets is 720potency

outer mural
#

regardless of enemy count, if the tank is pulling them then biolysis until you stop

#

since you may not necessarily be able to hit them all with art of war

forest sage
outer mural
#

^

forest sage
#

assuming you mean the 18h field, the 1h field are always worse

outer mural
#

quick if you micromanage

#

field if you don't really wanna check on retainers every hour

dense pier
#

Kk

outer mural
#

most people opt for field since it's so much easier to manage

sour rock
#

do menphina earrings work when youre above 80 but get synched down to MSQ roulette?

forest sage
#

no

outer mural
#

only when your actual character level is below 80, regardless of sync

forest sage
#

it'd be pretty dumb if you'd get more xp doing lower dungeons synced because of the earring, so it uses your base level

dense pier
#

Is there a better way to gear up my retainers outside of the vendor stuff? Gets pretty expensive, quick

forest sage
#

well if you use quick you don't need any gear, other than that, AF for combat classes and scrips for gathering classes is cheap/free

silent stream
#

how to i turn 100/0/180 into 100/100/80 in squadrons im too smol brain to math it in the squadron website

left whale
#

where does the greener gleaner minion come from ;v

dense pier
#

AF?

forest sage
#

job armor

dense pier
#

OHHHH

forest sage
#

like at 50/60/70 etc

#

these are free-ish(HW need centurio seals)

storm sapphire
left whale
#

goddamit

storm sapphire
#

For retainer ventures

forest sage
#

yeah there's one minion for each type of these ventures in EW

forest sage
#

I mean the website should tell you, the point is you don't have to math it

silent stream
#

i must be blind

#

must i input my characters because im just trying to do the training part

dense pier
#

Imagine this, I was outfitting my retainers with poetics gear lol

hallow grove
#

is the second half of ||labyrinthos msq|| supposed to have that song playing all the time? it feels like a bug

outer mural
#

yes

#

it's the 'hype' music on loop until you finish the prep there

hallow grove
#

it's a weird choice since i like to do all the side quests but okay at least i know it isn't bugged

covert marlin
#

should I be bothered to buy the game just because of wasted exp from HW and pre HW content exp?

little fulcrum
little fulcrum
warped nest
covert marlin
#

because I'm planning to collect all relics from the free trial before buying and it's going to take some time, does having access to marketboard helps that much?

tall mountain
#

Do note that even without the “extra” XP you’re wasting, the story gives enough XP to reach 90

warped nest
#

A lot

#

ARR relics requires crafted items

covert marlin
#

how bad would crafting them myself be if I have all my crafters at 60?

tall mountain
#

Also you can’t buy the game right now, don’t forget

warped nest
#

While HW relic doesn't need any crafted items specifically, crafting/gathering is one of the best choice in one of the steps

#

What aysom said too

little fulcrum
warped nest
#

But being free trial means you need to be completely self sufficient, which is possible

#

Just takes more time

covert marlin
#

hmm I shall see how bad it is when I'm there, currently finishing the books

tall mountain
warped nest
#

One way or another, you definitely get your money's worth from the free trial

tall mountain
#

(and if all the copies ain’t sold already)

warped nest
#

All relics, whew

covert marlin
#

It's a long journey but completing the collection seems fun

#

I think

#

for now

#

._.

warped nest
#

Ominous laugh

ember magnet
#

says I can only get one of the ilv570 ring from aphorism, is there another ilv570 ring for me to get or will I need to sit on ilv560 until I get ilv580s?

tall mountain
#

Until you can get 580s, I’m afraid

#

Only four level 90 rings right now—the 560 from dungeons, 570 from tomestones, 580 from extreme trial 1, 580 from normal raid
