[boreal storm]

Look through that

[willow sandal]

yeah but I don't think you should be blocked by ilvl requirements

[craggy tinsel]

I want to say you get ilvl 136 gear from the level 55 dungeon in Heavensward, I think

[willow sandal]

if you do your class quest

[boreal storm]

Accessories

[celest quartz]

I should be clear, Im dying to enemies not an ilvl requirement

[craggy tinsel]

Have you been doing your job quests, to clarify on that

[celest quartz]

The Gifted where I have to kill 3 or 4 mages

[twilit arch]

leves are tbh better but that said restoration is easier as you don't need quite as good gear to get max rewards (if you're struggling to get 100% HQ on leve items then it makes it not as good), plus restoration is all round just a bit lazier to do. you can sit in the firmament and do all your crafting. leves can require you to move a bit if you're in ARR (hw+ you can just sit near the levemete and turn in) @blissful tinsel

[craggy tinsel]

Because yes the ilvl 90 gear will be helpful

[open coral]

It is an ilevel issue.

[celest quartz]

I just want to play cards 😭

staph gating meeee

[craggy tinsel]

We're trying to help you

What is your item level currently, Phase?

[celest quartz]

55 :/

[open coral]

Yeah, that's super low

[craggy tinsel]

And you're on patch 2.1 quests?

Go do your job quests

You should have up to level 50 on them right now, so you can at least bump up to ilvl 90

[mystic lily]

Or grind poetics and buy the level 50 poetics gear

[limber hound]

job quests give you skills

[craggy tinsel]

^

[limber hound]

Most importantly

[craggy tinsel]

This too

[mystic lily]

Level 50 poetics gear will carry you from 50-60 when augmented

[celest quartz]

that was what I was thinking of doing

[tardy tangle]

how can I get to tricks and stones?

[limber hound]

poetics gear always comes augmented

doesn't it

[craggy tinsel]

(It'll always be augmented if bought with poetics)

[mystic lily]

Ah right, they changed that

It used to be that you had to augment it yourself iirc

[limber hound]

I will still insist you do the job quests

[craggy tinsel]

When it was current for the expansion, yes

[limber hound]

lest you come back and be like "where my lv50 and 60 and 70 abilities"

[craggy tinsel]

Job quests should always be done when unlocked, they're vital for progressing your job^^^

[mystic lily]

Yep

[celest quartz]

the moment I get to HW Im swapping classes and I know about class quests :/

[limber hound]

I thought the same thing with MCH

turns out I like melee-ing stuff more than shooting stuff

[craggy tinsel]

Get your level 50 job gear and finish ARR post patch, but buy healer gear with poetics for your AST

[limber hound]

besides, it's just good practice

[craggy tinsel]

(Since you mentioned cards, I assume you're switching to this)

[celest quartz]

yes

what do you mean by job gear

[craggy tinsel]

The gear you get for finishing your level 50 job quests

You get some at 45 as well, but it's not as good

You should have this gear by now if you're on 2.1 quests

If not, you're behind on job quests

[celest quartz]

Ive been beelineing through the story if thats not obvious

[open coral]

Yeah, but you should be doing job quests every time they're available

Regardless

[craggy tinsel]

^^^no exceptions

[slate arrow]

The ARR jobs give you a coffer full of i90 job gear after you complete the level 50 job quest of ARR

[open coral]

That's what everyone's been trying to tell you.

[cloud pendant]

once ffxiv sales are available again should I buy starter or complete?

[slate arrow]

from there you can buy an Ironworks weapon and accessories

[tardy tangle]

ok, any emotes I can buy in gil?

[slate arrow]

which allow you to skip the gear grind

[cloud pendant]

I believe complete is more worth because you get all expansions

[craggy tinsel]

Starter is effectively paying $20 to have the same content you already have

[limber hound]

I went to check the ilvl requirements for the last ARR dungeon

It's 90

[craggy tinsel]

But this time forcing you to need a subscription

[limber hound]

[craggy tinsel]

So buy complete

[open coral]

The Complete edition will be the entire game. But they're effectively the same price whether you buy the complete or the starter + EW

[celest quartz]

I dont like torturing myself sadly, and Im only suffering through it because it seems like I have to which is dumb

[cloud pendant]

ok thanks

[slate arrow]

If you're ignoring your gear you will be gating yourself out of the ability to complete patch content to unlock ast

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[craggy tinsel]

ARR is a bit slow, but it does all the important world building

[heavy wadi]

job quests gate extremely important abilities and are not optional.

[open coral]

Job quests aren't optional. They're required.

[limber hound]

dood isn't intending to stick to their current job

[open coral]

Which again, is what everyone here has been telling you

[heavy wadi]

doesn't matter.

playing with half your abilities because you're rushing for another job is griefing

[celest quartz]

if I was playing the class I want to play Id have a different opinion

[open coral]

What is your current class?

[faint flare]

You can't even get the ilvl required to finish arr without doing your job quests

[tough ember]

Question, does anybody knows if you get "Ultimates" titles right now? I am asking because I heard, pre-6.0 launch was that you cannot because they have to work out the kinks with the stats squish.

[twilit arch]

you're actively hindering your party by not doing your job quests because they often have important skills behind them

[faint flare]

Yes

[slate arrow]

Ultimates are still possible

[faint flare]

They've always been available

They never not have

[tough ember]

Thank you for the fast reply!

[celest quartz]

god forbid I reach 50 and play the class I want noooooooooooooo I have to slog through a bunch of story that every not heavensward class doesnt have to deal with -_-

[slate arrow]

no it's only Heavensward jobs because it was their first expansion

[craggy tinsel]

If you want to make your own experience worse by not doing one simple thing every five levels go for it, but that's not on us

[celest quartz]

thats what I meant by not heavensward

[slate arrow]

Going back to unlock them with only a level unlock would make a lot of things not make sense

[mystic lily]

Job quests also are very short

[craggy tinsel]

Just ignore them if they don't want to listen to advice. I'm done "helping."

[celest quartz]

what do you guys think Im doing while Im chatting xD

[limber hound]

ooh this is popcorn-worthy

[open coral]

Did you even bother to do your class quests to level 30 and unlock your job? Or did you just ignore them as "pointless"?

[celest quartz]

my class quests

[heavy wadi]

Yeah you're griefing if you haven't done any of your job quests.

[sage mist]

Does anyone elses final Fantasy app crash whenever they use Headphones still on PC?

[limber hound]

fascinating

[barren granite]

are scrip exchange jsut for Do Land ?

[mystic lily]

I mean, i've seen people missing their job quests, but i've never seen someone ignoring them

[slate arrow]

Hand and land yes

[limber hound]

This is more interesting to watch than actually be involved in

[barren granite]

ty robot

[slate arrow]

Alright it's time to stop

[craggy tinsel]

There's purple and white scrip for both hand and land, so four types of scrip total

[slate arrow]

Do your job quests.

Any other comment will be met with a mute.

[barren granite]

kk cxool

[craggy tinsel]

Purple can be largely ignored until max, however

Because you don't get them until max level anyway

[mystic lily]

Purple scrip is also fairly situational

[celest quartz]

I did mine up to 35 and stopped ok

[craggy tinsel]

Right... unless you plan to buy max level materia you probably don't even need the purple scrip

[mystic lily]

It's good in that it gives raw stats, but crafted gear when properly melded is potentially better

[celest quartz]

I was under the initial assumption that once I got to 50 with 50 gear Id just do story to heavenward, I didnt know about the ilvl jump(s), now I do

[barren granite]

ok.

[craggy tinsel]

1/2 melds pushes it over

[slate arrow]

it's less "more stats" and more "you can allot stats where you want to"

[craggy tinsel]

Ye

[slate arrow]

Scrip gear always lacks Crafting Points

which is the most important resource when it comes to endgame crafting

[mystic lily]

The main outlier is Purple crafter scrip tools

They tend to come with a good amount of stats and CP

[craggy tinsel]

Speaking of crafted gear I'm almost penta'd pray for my sanity

[slate arrow]

is that true this tier? I thought that was only true for the skybuilders stuff

[slate arrow]

I'm so sorry

[craggy tinsel]

🙃

[sage mist]

Random question but Do the Mods and Mentors here actually work for Square Enix?

[mystic lily]

Nah, it goes for this tier as well, the purple tools are very strong

[craggy tinsel]

No

[faint flare]

No

[slate arrow]

no

[open coral]

No

[slate arrow]

I'd love to get paid believe me

[craggy tinsel]

huh there's an echo in here

[sage mist]

lol... woah lol thanks lol

[slate arrow]

Mogstation makes me want to drink

[faint flare]

Pay for the fantasias

[twilit arch]

purple MH don't have cp on them tho so

[celest quartz]

Since Im here and thinking about it, will the same jumps and solutions happen at the end of each expansion? So like I finish heavensward, I get my currency, upgrade my gear once, and that will get me through the between Heavensward patches and the next expansion?

[narrow jay]

Ish.

[twilit arch]

even lightly melded crafted MHs are going to beat out purple scrip tbh

[slate arrow]

yes the same grind happens at the end of every expansion, but you get a coffer of the second tier of tomestone gear via the MSQ usually

[narrow jay]

Tomestone gear will get outpaced by dungeon gear and HQ white gear around the x3/x4 levels of each expansion, and by normal quality gear around x5/x6 levels.

[slate arrow]

ARR is the exception

[narrow jay]

yes

[celest quartz]

x3 x4 x5 x6? Im sorry?

[narrow jay]

like 53, 63

[slate arrow]

They give the tomestone gear via the job quests in ARR

[narrow jay]

whatever the first digit

[celest quartz]

oh ok ty

Im like 6* 50 is level 300 and the cap is 90 ?_?

[open coral]

Cap is i130 for level 50

[craggy tinsel]

Best poetics gear at the end of
2.0: 130
3.0: 270
4.0: 400
5.0: 530

[slate arrow]

130/270/400/530

[limber hound]

ilvl is averaged

[craggy tinsel]

It jumps by around 130-140 each time from top tier to top tier

[mystic lily]

I've normally been able to run tomestone gear to the upper ranges of their intended levels. Normally losing their power by 58/59 and so on for each tier

[slate arrow]

ARR you benefit the most from because there is literally no item level sync for most content

[craggy tinsel]

Technically you can run it all the way to the end but the gear starts getting item level matched about halfway through the following expansion

And it's usually noticeable if someone has lower level gear, like in Bozja/Zadnor the difference between someone having augmented scaeven vs augmented cryptlurker is pretty apparent

Even though both sync to 430

[queen fern]

Do EXP boosters affect spiritbond rates?

[craggy tinsel]

granted, one syncs up and one syncs down.. but still

[twilit arch]

no

[craggy tinsel]

No, but spiritbond boosters do

[queen fern]

Just curious. I have plenty of Spiritbond potions.

But I also have leftover survival manuals for gathering.

[craggy tinsel]

having more materia melded, having Those That Bind Us active in your FC, running spiritbond potions and doing higher level recipes/content I believe are all the things that affect spiritbond, someone correct me if I'm wrong please

[willow sandal]

why is every single alliance raid a world of darkness

[craggy tinsel]

I always get Syrcus Tower so I feel your pain

[willow sandal]

I want to use my abilities

[heavy wadi]

rng is rng

[craggy tinsel]

Like why can't I get Ridorana's Lighthouse for once, I wanna do math

[willow sandal]

not rng, people queuing for it for quests

[heavy wadi]

also ct is required for msq so you're gonna get it more than any other.

[limber hound]

I need crystal tower raids for my resistance wep

gibe

[covert marlin]

why are these recipes not checked after I crafted them once

[limber hound]

Expert recipes don't get those, do they

they don't even give the first-time-crafted bonus

[twilit arch]

not every thing gives a check mark

[safe birch]

where's the best place to post for recruiting for treasure maps? my party finder only has 1 person

[twilit arch]

as they're items that don't count towards the achievement

[covert marlin]

hmm that's a bummer

[twilit arch]

for craft x number of items

[limber hound]

rigt

[covert marlin]

oke, thanks for the replies!

[celest quartz]

Ok I did my class quests and got some ilvl 90 gear, but what about my rings etc?

[flat yew]

the savage tier releases in a week, right?

[celest quartz]

it says my avg ilevel is 77

[craggy tinsel]

yes

[craggy tinsel]

that should be enough for now honestly, you should notice a significant difference

[wintry chasm]

You'll just have to get poetic gear to fill out your accessories

[craggy tinsel]

since you're dead-set on switching to AST, just start spending poetics on healer gear

[celest quartz]

said next class quest is for before the dawn which to my spreadsheet is the last quest before hw

[wintry chasm]

Correct

[celest quartz]

could I stick with what I have rn and get to hw?

[wintry chasm]

Level 50 content when you reach it will give you tomestones of poetic currency that you can trade for ilvl 130 gear

[wintry chasm]

MSQ gives you the bare minimum as you progress

with ilvl 77 the answer is no

but MSQ will sort you out

[celest quartz]

aka patches 2.1-2.55?

[wintry chasm]

But you should honestly still use those poetics when you get it to buy the ilvl 130 stuff

[wintry chasm]

Yes

[celest quartz]

I already have a 130 hat but thats it

[wintry chasm]

Dw you'll get a lot of poetics as you do the patches

[celest quartz]

and I dont want to grind dungeons and crud if I dont have to

[sweet crane]

has there been any mentioned about a capstone / allied beast tribe quests for ShB?

[wintry chasm]

There isn't one no

It's sad

[inland quarry]

the game just started randomly stuttering every second during a cutscene and it won't stop even out of it

[celest quartz]

what amount of poetics do I get for first clears?

[wintry chasm]

Uhhh
Fuck

I think it depends on the content

[celest quartz]

tried to look up a wiki and it wasnt helpful :/

[open coral]

Yeah, it's content-based.

[celest quartz]

no numbers anywhere afaik

[wintry chasm]

I know some you get 60 for first time clear

on top of what you get normally

[open coral]

I want to say the early 50 dungeons are 40

Later ones are 50 or 60

Alliance raids are 50 for CT

[celest quartz]

so to be clear with what I have I should be able to move onto 2.1 and beyond with little issue?

[wintry chasm]

Yeah

[celest quartz]

thank god

and thank you!

[serene fiber]

someone is telling me that bozja is still the best place to farm exp after level 80
i dunno if thats true or bullshit lol

[wintry chasm]

But also getting ironworks is also really easy because you have so much fucking content to do in the patches that give it out that like, you might as well do that and you're good all the way to level 55

[queen fern]

You can level in Bozja.

You can also just spam EW FATEs or Dungeons.

Which are just as fast if not faster.

[ruby hearth]

How do you find your own registration code?

[serene fiber]

oh ye i can but this guy is saying castrum+bozja is just faster and better than prae and im like

[wintry chasm]

Depends where you bought the game

[serene fiber]

IS bozja faster at leveling?

[celest quartz]

Im only hesitant because Id rather spend it on ast when I get the job instead of my current job I intent to swap off of

[ruby hearth]

Ps5 for free

[leaden ginkgo]

To get Scholar i need Arcanist at lvl 30?

[serene fiber]

like i dunno if bozja really gives that much exp post 80

[wintry chasm]

Digital? Then you don't need a code it should be automatic?

[queen fern]

You don't do Castrum for leveling IIRC. Leveling in Bozja is primarily just spamming skirmishes in Zadnor.

[wintry chasm]

Yes

[serene fiber]

msq roulette chose castrum

[wintry chasm]

Sorry I read that wrong originally

[serene fiber]

i much prefer prae for more exp but it was either stay or leave

[wintry chasm]

Arcanist goes into both Summoner and Scholar at level 30 @leaden ginkgo

[ruby hearth]

I forgot my date of birth but it is telling me I need my registration code

[serene fiber]

i just find it a bit difficult to think people still do bozja/zadnor for leveling after 80

[wintry chasm]

uhhh

I got nothing then. I've never really seen or done the upgrade before

[slate arrow]

It's surprisingly good past 80

[ruby hearth]

Why does the company make this shit so complicated

Like bruh

[slate arrow]

ID LIKE TO KNOW

SE account management makes me want to drink

[serene fiber]

huh, better than dungeons even?

[slate arrow]

Before they buffed dungeon exp definitely

[sage mist]

You've been wanting a drink a lot lately

[craggy tinsel]

I've seen people saying once you get to 85 run dungeons if your queues are short, otherwise stick to Bozja/Zadnor

[slate arrow]

[queen fern]

Ah, thought you meant Castrum Lacus Litore.

[serene fiber]

im trying to level sage and dancer rn

[outer plank]

i cant get duplicate drops at the end of a dungeon if i have the gear right? so it will give me a different gear till i have a complete set for a job?

[inland quarry]

can someone help? EW zone 5 stutters literally every 0.2 seconds it's impossible to play like this

[outer plank]

better computer?

[slate arrow]

Yes the instance completion gear will always be something you don't have for your current job

[inland quarry]

i have a really good one, also the zone was good it randomly started doing this like 10 minutes ago

[slate arrow]

Don't know what your problem is, too vague

[inland quarry]

randomly started dropping to like 10 fps during a cutscene for no reason and nothing i do fixes it

i don't wanna rejoin cause idk how queue is doing rn

[slate arrow]

"I have a problem" is all I am getting out of this

[serene fiber]

i guess i should do roulettes with my DNC and spam dungeons as sage.
i guessssss i could do dancer in bozja but i guess it depends on how many people and how much exp i can get

[slate arrow]

I need stuff like specs

and in this case background things

like are you downloading something on steam or is there other games in the background

a lot of things can affect performance

[inland quarry]

just discord

[slate arrow]

What does Task Manager say

[inland quarry]

as far as i can see literally no reason for this to be happening, nothing in the background and no change from when it was running smoothly

[slate arrow]

Then it sounds like thermal throttling

[leaden ginkgo]

Hey guys, where can I exchange discontinued allagan tomestones and for what?

[slate arrow]

Mor dhona, poetics

[leaden ginkgo]

thanks, just exactly the type I need rn

[plain python]

there is no off-hadn for script crafter/gatherer gear?

[slate arrow]

correct

[celest quartz]

Ok Im slightly confused right now, I just finished 2.1 and I saw some prompt about the Crystal Tower and MSQ Progress, but Im sitting here with the first quest of 2.2 in front of me

[open coral]

Yes. If you've started the Crystal Tower questline then for some reason it won't lock you out at the lock point.

[regal pawn]

You won't be able to progress into Heavensward without it

It will lock you out at a certain point

So it's best to do it now, as later it will ruin the pace of msq

[open coral]

(It's a good source of poetics too)

[celest quartz]

how much time will this take? :/

is this the equivalent of like, do a dungeon or 2?

[limber hound]

Three (relatively straightforward) 24-man raids

[open coral]

About... an hour and a half? Give or take depending on queue times and how quickly you get through the quest parts?

[dense pier]

I know more stats means better, but how big of an impact will a single item with +30ilevel be?

[open coral]

The raids themselves are about 20 minute runs, again, depending on your party.

[mystic lily]

Fairly big if it has the proper stats for that job

[limber hound]

They were made mandatory because of Shadowbringers or somesuch

[dense pier]

So upgrading a single item with +20ilevel is notable then?

[open coral]

Yes

[dense pier]

kk

[mystic lily]

For the most part, absolutely

[open coral]

+20 ilevels is huge

[celest quartz]

how do I know if Ive done everything properly?

aka I wont be locked out in the future?

am I doing a single Labryinth of the Ancients run once and thats it?

[limber hound]

one of each, in sequence

that is to say, labyrinth -> syrcus -> wod

[ruby hearth]

Is it possible to permanently delete your psn account and start a new one on xbox/ps5?

[limber hound]

Not in one sitting, but still

[slate arrow]

Via Support

[celest quartz]

sorry Im confused still

finishing 2.1 points me to LoA

will the MSQ after point me to Syrcus and WoD?

[faint flare]

It's part of loa

It's a full chain

[limber hound]

It points you to the starting quest of the crystal tower raid series, part of which is labyrinth

[bright hatch]

@celest quartz the crystal tower series will continue in a chain dont worry just keep following it

[faint flare]

Once you finish labyrinth the same quest chain goes directly to it

[celest quartz]

oh so this is all one giant quest chain going from 1 to 2 to 3

[limber hound]

Every raid in the game works similarly

except coils

[celest quartz]

so doing 1 2 and 3 will be enough to not lock me out of msq later?

[limber hound]

lock you out as in?

[faint flare]

Yes all of crystal tower is mandatory

You need to do it all before 2.5

Otherwise you'll be blocked

[celest quartz]

does the wiki point this out by chance?

[regal pawn]

yes

[dense pier]

AAAA SPOILERS

jk

[limber hound]

this is like

20% of the whole gaem

[willow sandal]

you need to complete the questline associated with them

which also introduces these raids to you

[outer chasm]

Is there a good field aether current guide? The wiki has a map that shows the aether currents but it shows the quests objective ones too with no way to distinguish between the two

[willow sandal]

so when you finish the 3rd part, you dont just run away

[celest quartz]

so when I complete the Light of Hope (aka theres something to do AFTER WoD) Im good to continue the MSQ without issue?

[still bobcat]

hey, i have started ff xiv (free trial) on ps4 like months ago and i decided go back into the game on pc. BUT the launcher asks for a activation code (that i don't have obviously). is there any way for me to play the game without reinstalling it on ps4?

[open coral]

At this time, there is not. You can only activate the free trial on one platform total, and sales of the game (and new downloads of the trial) are suspended until further notice due to server overcrowding.

[still bobcat]

damn, it sucks, but i was kinda expecting that. thanks anyway.

[celest quartz]

Important to note you can still activate any keys you do own

and you can play just fine

[spiral inlet]

was snow white dye ever "rare? or am I imagining things

If I want to delete my psn account on FF14 which option should I choose?

[open coral]

It's you. You can definitely link a PF in /shout

Where do I get the macro for waymarkers for the new EX trial 2?

[serene steppe]

Ah

[faint flare]

Waymark macros don't exist

You use the save slots in the waymark menu

So you need someone to set them down first then save them

[prisma hill]

D:

Oh, didn't know that, thx.

[weak copper]

how tf can i complete the quest True Carrot Crimes? i talked to every carrot on the floor (philosopher & nibbled iron) and nothing happens

[cursive ridge]

carrots are just clues

look around more

[wintry chasm]

^

I got confused because I thought it was meant to lead me one way but it actually led the other

[royal prairie]

Hi, I'm about to download the game but did not find it on steam! Is it better to download it on steam or from their website? and what will I miss if there is differences between the two!

[warm snow]

Game is not for sale

No free trial accounts can be created

You're gonna have to unhear about the award winning mmo final fantasy xiv

There is no free trial up to level 60 including the critically acclaimed heavensward expansion

Eorzea is full, please play something else

[royal prairie]

👀

[warm snow]

You think I'm joking but that is the current state of affairs

Game is so popular servers can't keep up, game sales and marketing have been pulled until things are under control

For more detail see the pins

and don't just say, "why didn't they just buy more servers"

[celest quartz]

Do note that keys themselves still work

so if you have a key you can still play

[tall mountain]

(but there is currently no legitmate place to get a key)

[royal prairie]

It's cuz Spiderman sponsored the new dlc of game and I got excited and finally found friends who play it so I wanted to play together! x)
Thank you tho for explaining the current situation of game <3

[warm snow]

Under any other circumstances we'd be more than welcoming but

To give a quick visual aid

[celest quartz]

technically you are welcoming, but Yoshi P isnt :3

[warm snow]

Things are a wee bit out of hand

[warm snow]

Fuck no, I'm taking every opportunity to shit post about this

[celest quartz]

can you not do that and still be welcoming? xD

[royal prairie]

Thank you!

[warm snow]

Did spiderman promote this?

Wtf?

[celest quartz]

No Way Home = Stuck in Eorzea I guess? xD

[warm snow]

Is Endwalker in no way home or some shit?

[tall mountain]

i think tom holland promoted it?

no no, i think it's holland himself

[warm snow]

As usual Holland can't keep his mouth shut it seems

[celest quartz]

damn a whole country promoting a game 😮

[warm snow]

Lmao

[tall mountain]

he was in an ad for shadowbringers

idk if he promoted ew

yeah i can't find anything from him about ew

i guess kigarya just saw the ShB ad

[warm snow]

My partner did see an Endwalker ad on TV over Christmas

Took a picture to laugh at me

[royal prairie]

sorry not this but shadowbringers,
https://youtu.be/Aqju18pcq6U

[warm snow]

Oh this one

[celest quartz]

all those ads should be pulled tho xD

[warm snow]

That's last expansion

[tall mountain]

yeah, it's a shame that contracts and the like mean they couldn't pull every ad

[warm snow]

They couldn't pull them all, contracts and red tape

[royal prairie]

yep sorry for the mis lead

[warm snow]

Blah blah blah

[warm snow]

Np, I was just quite confused

[warm snow]

We're currently outdoing world of warcrafts in most people eyes so there will be articles and shit when the game is available for purchase again.

[celest quartz]

So Im in 2.2 rn and I have to kill ||the primals|| and do some alliance stuff to get to HW without stopping. Are there similar things that need to be done post expansion for the other expansions?

[warm snow]

So keep your eyes open

[warm snow]

No, arr is just arr

Although tbf, crystal tower was only made mandatory with shadowbringers and that's the only time that's happened

[celest quartz]

good to know thanks. wasnt happy to see all of that :/

[warm snow]

Because the ct story ties into the msq

But I'll leave it at that

[mystic tapir]

best way to level from 80-90 after completing MSQ?

[warm snow]

Dungeons and fates

[narrow jay]

and MSQ roulette

Castrum is still fairly decent, but Prae's XP for some reason is stupidly large these days

like 90% of a level worth of large

[bright hatch]

Castrum is just worst

Its inferior to prae in literally every way

[warm snow]

Roulettes are a given

[warm snow]

Speed for tomes

[somber finch]

In order to play the Dancer job, would i need to pay a subscription? Or could i buy once, play forever the expansion that unlocks the Dancer?

[bright hatch]

Who cares about speed when im falling asleep

At least in prae i can actually take a nap and wake up

[lost sable]

i hid my ui and hud accidently from a random button, anyone know which one does that to reverse it?

[forest sage]

free trial only has ARR and Heavensward, DNC is a Stormblood class so no you wouldn't be able to play it

once you own Stormblood you can play it whenever, but you need a sub to play once you're not on free trial anymore

[somber finch]

Yeah, but to play it, would i need a sub or only the expansion that unlocks it? As in, buy once and thats it, its unlocked indefinetly?

Ah ok

[forest sage]

you always need a sub to play the game once you're not on the free trial anymore

[lost sable]

fixed it, it was left trigger+share on ps controller

[tacit jungle]

is there an egi glam command to make everyone elses summons as small as possible?

[faint flare]

/petsize all small

[forest sage]

the command affects all pets, yours and other's

[tacit jungle]

good good

just the summons/carbuncle right?

and egis at lower lvl

[buoyant monolith]

What bot commands I use to check my XIV character?

[forest sage]

it affects every pet

you can specifically reduce the size of some of them if you want

[formal thorn]

do i need to complete whole endwalker be4 i can buy stuff from tomestone exchange in endwalker?

[forest sage]

if you type /? /petsize ingame it should list the available modifiers instead of "all"

[faint flare]

Yes

As standard

[tacit jungle]

/? is a thing??? the game has command helpfiles???

shit thats cool

[forest sage]

you need to know the name of the command to use /? so it's not the greatest but if you want to figure out arguments and stuff it's nice

[errant mesa]

I just got a second job to 50

But I don't really want to buy IW for it

What are my options?

[forest sage]

changing your mind and buying ironworks?

I guess you can look into crafted gear

[errant mesa]

I don't have poetics and it's the last class for the gear type

[narrow jay]

If it's the appearance you don't like, you can glamour over it.

[forest sage]

the HW stuff that's 50, it's lower ilvl than Ironworks though

[errant mesa]

Nah Monk gear is nice

[narrow jay]

But the game rains poetics on you

[boreal storm]

Just do roulettes

[errant mesa]

This is just leveling, not msq

[narrow jay]

Like, I mean absolutely pours them on you

[forest sage]

yeah just get crafted if you don't want to bother

[errant mesa]

Fair enough

Are all the monk sets as nice as the 50 one 👀

[forest sage]

there's not many ways to get gear, it's either crafted, poetics or dungeons, and dungeons isn't so great if you don't have gear to begin with

[flint pollen]

hello folks and mind i ask where you go to lvl up your toons on mogstation plz ?

[forest sage]

I guess you can also farm coil unsynced with another class

[boreal storm]

Subjective

[forest sage]

that's kinda a waste of time though

[flint pollen]

quick lvl per character i meant

[boreal storm]

!faq skips

[zinc orbit]

What does each skip do?

Tales of Adventure: <EXPACNAME> This item skips the story quests on the character you get it on to the end of the expansion listed. All the main story quests and aether current quests up to that point will be completed. It will not increase your character's job levels. Any MSQ rewards missed can be obtained at the calamity salvager or from the market board except the free fantasia, which is forfeit. You will also receive 10 silver chocobo feathers and 500k gil in platinum pieces.

Tales of Adventure: One <JOBNAME> Journey This item increases a given job to level 70. It will not skip your story progress to level 70. You cannot use this if you've already completed the level 70 job quest for that given job. You will also receive a full set of ilvl400 gear and some accessories as well as 500k gil in platinum pieces.

DISCLAIMER: DO NOT HARASS PEOPLE ABOUT WANTING TO USE/PURCHASE SKIPS

[errant mesa]

Dang no wonder gil is so inflated

[faint flare]

Lol no coffee biscuits did that

[visual agate]

if i fire my retainer will the items in the storage be gone after i got a new one?

[flint pollen]

that is not what i am looking for and i need to like you have could in the past say you take your toon and get it to lvl 70 and get your gear from the mail on game

that is what im talking about

[boreal storm]

Job skips, which is what was just explained in the faq

[forest sage]

yeah this is it, there's nothing else

[boreal aurora]

what are 6.05 masterbooks gonna have

[errant mesa]

Crafted gear

[boreal storm]

Could have a crafted trial weapon, who knows

[boreal aurora]

🤔

[forest sage]

crafted combat 580 gear, new food, new pots, and yeah maybe a trial weapon(but wouldn't bet on it), some glamour/mount/minion stuff using mats from the treasure dungeon, this kind of stuff

[misty blaze]

To be sure: In normal raids, if I loot from Raid 2 and ahvent looted from Raid 1, will that lock me out of looting from raid 1?

[boreal storm]

No

[forest sage]

na you're fine for normal

it's only savage that does weird shit like that, normal is do whatever in whatever order

[warm snow]

It will in savage, but not normal

[boreal aurora]

patch in 1week at what time tho

[warm snow]

Even entering raid 2 will. Lcok you out

[warm snow]

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It'll be over at 10am st iirc

Cuz they never end this type of maintenance early

[boreal aurora]

kk

[warm snow]

Might be 9am

[wintry trellis]

Last patch was done like an hour early so that’s something to consider

[warm snow]

Wrong

[faint flare]

Savage patches NEVER go early

Ever

[warm snow]

Anything with high end content never ends early

EVER

Because worlds first races

[wintry trellis]

Damn

[warm snow]

They don't want to give any region an unfair advantage

[wintry trellis]

[warm snow]

It'll be the same in 6.1 with dsu

If that all continues as planned

[faint flare]

Housing additional, savage and ultimates patches never end early

To keep it all fair

[wintry trellis]

Damn so I actually gotta hunt my computer to login decently

[bright hatch]

Is it worth doing normal for gear when savage comes out?

[wintry trellis]

Sadge

[warm snow]

Yes

[wintry trellis]

If you can’t afford crafted it’s the next best thing

[warm snow]

Cuz that 580 gear is gonna be fuck off expensive

[faint flare]

You'll need normal mode gear or crafted for savage

[warm snow]

And it'll be better for some jobs based on substats

[faint flare]

Plus gear for alts

[warm snow]

Skill speed on dnc is just detrimental for example

[wintry trellis]

Most classes have info on the balance for your priority until savage drops.

[bright hatch]

Craft gear usually require map mats or nah

[faint flare]

No

Map mats are for glamour

[bright hatch]

Ah ic

Well i’ll just craft it myself then

[faint flare]

No

Just don't be lazy and you'll get it

[bright hatch]

U probably need level crafter or get good drops, but no its not hard

[faint flare]

I've made a casual 4mil from desynth while levelling jobs

[bright hatch]

What have u been desynthing?? @faint flare

Uhh level crafter with free trial is tough

[faint flare]

Literally all the gear from levelling dungeons

[bright hatch]

Ur going need level gatherer since you cant use the market board

@faint flare u selling mats on market defaq? Arent those usually trash drops

[faint flare]

No

People are levelling crafters

And are buying

Each mat on light is a few thousand per

[bright hatch]

Huh. Maybe my desynth just bad

[faint flare]

It adds up while levelling alts

[bright hatch]

But mats i get are not usedul

[faint flare]

Endwalker dungeons btw

[bright hatch]

Ah ic

That changes it

[leaden ginkgo]

How do you mark the ground like some people do in trials and stuff, with the letter symbols

[faint flare]

Waymarks

[golden jewel]

i just gulped down a superior spiritbond potion and farmed for 15 minutes ... only 4% on my gear? is that broken?

[tall mountain]

depends on what you're farming

[golden jewel]

mh lvl80 items in lvl90 gear, is that the problem?

[tall mountain]

spiritbond goes up based on what "level" the content is compared to what you've got equipped

yes

if it's crafting, you need to craft level 89-90 items to get any meainingful spiritbond

[golden jewel]

i see, thanks

[plush hound]

Also the type. Blue gear grows at a snails pace while green goes pretty quickly.

[tall mountain]

spiritbond for crafters will be a lot easier to farm via crafting when you can do starred recipes next week

if you want to farm materia right now, farm scrips instead

[golden jewel]

just hq crafted

[tall mountain]

and take the spiritbond as a bonus

[golden jewel]

you mean collectibles?

[bright hatch]

Yah scripts

Collectable are scripts for crafters

[golden jewel]

theres so many kinds of scripts, collectibles etc, i only ever did the thing with the collectible trader in limsa lower decks

[fossil bloom]

am i missing something, or is there really no option to buy L60 gear with white scrips?

[bright hatch]

@golden jewel radz go there

If u got culinarian do the level 89 giant popotato for white scripts . All gatherable

[ionic echo]

I think you can get it in Ishgard

[bright hatch]

Its in firnament

[golden jewel]

what kind of materia can you buy in radz with white scirpts?

[bright hatch]

At new start waystone teleport part near orphanage

[golden jewel]

only viii?

[plush hound]

Are you talking to a Rowena rep?

[bright hatch]

Well master recipe if u dont got those yet for one

[fossil bloom]

um, no. this is the stall outside the main market building at gridania

[bright hatch]

I would get purple if u havent caped that as well

[frozen zodiac]

whats the orchestron roll that the lunar whale plays?

Next question: Are you at level 60?

[sour rock]

for heaven on high people spam floors 21-30 right

[tall mountain]

ye

[cursive ridge]

@fossil bloom

[bright hatch]

Should be the south east one

[fossil bloom]

my CRP is L60

[cursive ridge]

!faq scripunlock

[zinc orbit]

House of Splendor Unlock Quests

Unlocking scrips (Foundation x10, y10.)
Unlocking Idyllshire's House of Splendors (Mor Dhona 22, y6)
Unlocking Rhalgr's Reach House of Splendors (Rhalgr's Reach x10, y12)
Unlocking Eulmore's House of Splendors (Eulmore at x11, y10, on the top floor)

[bright hatch]

But im not seeing it on ur map for some reason

[delicate mirage]

can I get my own chocobo?

[cursive ridge]

scrip vendors require unlocks to show goods

[bright hatch]

@fossil bloom u can also go to that town in dravania. Illydshire

[delicate mirage]

or something like a chocobo to go to places quicker

[bright hatch]

Theres a guy outside near tent area with all shop guys that sell stuff for white scripts

[cursive ridge]

part of MSQ at about level 20

[delicate mirage]

ohh okay ty

[ionic echo]

At x: 10.5 y: 11.8 in Ishgard - Foundation, is there a Rowena's Rep there for you? I can get level 60 crafter and gatherer gear for white scrips there.

[cursive ridge]

nothing to do with the location of NPCs, just have to do the unlock quests linked by the bot above

[open rivet]

what am I doing wrong?

[cursive ridge]

are you in an instanced area

[open rivet]

nvm figured it out, am not done w/ 50 quest yet

[faint flare]

Have you unlocked pet glamour

[golden jewel]

ok i now tried to do some lvl90 nodes with my lvl90 gatherer gear AND a superior spiritbond potion and only gained 2% in 10 minutes, something seems off

[cursive ridge]

eh, gatherer and crafting spiritbonding was always mega slow

combat is just stupid fast because the gigantic chunk of exp from the end of a dungeon and every boss counts towards it

[frozen zodiac]

also fate grinding

[golden jewel]

i could have sworn that it was way faster the last couple of days ..

[frozen zodiac]

lot of fate grinding going on rn

melds increase spirit bonding speed

20% increase per meld

[inland quarry]

do you get more exp for playing a certain role in duty roullete? got 4mil exp on my paladin but 600k on my dragoon

[frozen zodiac]

were you doing a roulette?

[boreal storm]

Different roulettes give different exp bonuses

[inland quarry]

doing leveling roullete

[cursive ridge]

also spiritbond goes faster if you do it in slightly worse gear than the content level, up to 3.5 times faster https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/w/images/3/3f/Spiritbondrate.png

[inland quarry]

same roullete

[forest sage]

in a row? roulette bonus is once a day

[inland quarry]

nope

[wintry chasm]

^

[frozen zodiac]

what level was your pld and what level was your drg?

[boreal storm]

Level difference

[forest sage]

then level difference yeah

[inland quarry]

80 dragoon 84 pld

[forest sage]

the amount of xp you get scales with your level and the difference between the duty and your own lvl

[frozen zodiac]

did you do both roulettes in the same day?

[inland quarry]

no

[forest sage]

600k sounds super low for 80 though, was it Titan normal?

[inland quarry]

i waited for the reset at 3pm server time

[inland quarry]

the dusk vigil dungeon

[forest sage]

600k from the roulette, or 600k total

[inland quarry]

total

[forest sage]

then you fucked up your daily bonus somehow

cause that's just the standard xp

[wintry chasm]

Yeahhh

[willow sandal]

why are sitting poses not randomized

[frozen zodiac]

to make you seek out more emotes

[inland quarry]

welp I'll try again tomorrow and see if it happens again

[narrow jay]

because the player can cycle through them with /cpose?

[forest sage]

I don't know if you forgot you ran before, or you didn't run at the right time with the reset but at 80 you'd be getting like 2.5m or so

[inland quarry]

i think i might have gotten confused between 3 pm server time and 3 pm my time since i remember doing it noon, I don't remember when at noon though
Would log in to check if i have the bonus now to confirm it but queue....

[willow sandal]

are there sitting poses that you can farm?

*collect

[boreal storm]

No

[inland quarry]

i think only dances

[willow sandal]

you can cycle standing poses too

[inland quarry]

u can cycle allot of poses

[narrow jay]

this is true, so I'm not sure why sitting poses would function differently lol

[frozen zodiac]

PSO chair emote when?

[sick briar]

how to get past tank-anxiety?
I got no issues with healers, lvl all to max, I DID lvl GNB to 80, but that started at 60....
Trying to lvl warrior atm, and stuck at 40, cant bring myself to try dungeons,
pull too much and too poorly, and u wipe,
pull too slow and ppl get upset

[frozen zodiac]

Wiping is part of that learning curve

also just blame the healer when it happens and you're good

[sick briar]

I know experience helps, but

[cursive ridge]

at low levels, you're entirely at the mercy of the healer

if the healer is a newbie, you cant pull a lot

if they're experienced you can wall to wall everywhere

[sick briar]

as a healer main, you are describing a war crime

[boreal storm]

Just tell them you aren’t comfortable with big pulls

[somber finch]

So, when are the servers expected to come back online for first time players to begin playing?

[frozen zodiac]

HIGH COMEDY

[forest sage]

do 2 packs at a time, pace is fast enough and not really hard to heal even with Cure 1 spam

[bright hatch]

No if ur a healer player just got gud

[boreal storm]

They usually understand

[frozen zodiac]

new servers late jan

[fossil bloom]

so how do i use these

[boreal storm]

No clue when you can start buying the game again

[plush hound]

When queue times reduce to a manageable level. When specifically that will be, no one knows.

[cursive ridge]

talk to the guy who gave it to you and assign to your prof

[frozen zodiac]

go to foundation? and select which one you want to specialize in

[sick briar]

talk to specific npc what job u want to be your special one

[forest sage]

low lvl dungeons also depend heavily on the DPS jobs you have in the party, some just can't fucking aoe until 42+ or so, so pulling large packs if you don't have ppl who can aoe does kinda fuck all

I mean you can always aoe as the tank but no reason to do massive pulls

cause shit isn't going to be dying quickly if you're the only aoe

[wintry chasm]

You mean the NPC near the airship landing strip...

Unless they made a second NPC?

[narrow jay]

Just gotta try stuff out until you see how it works honestly. And don't be afraid to pop your biggest cooldowns first in your rotation, before you've taken much damage at all.

[frozen zodiac]

trust dungeons proved that the only reason you're the warrior of light is because you have aoe attacks

[willow sandal]

use defensive cooldowns generously and you'll be fine

[narrow jay]

Or watch other tanks while you're DPS/Healer, and see what they're doing.

[cursive ridge]

apparently endwalker trusts use AoE, urianger especially is apparently the DPS king

[narrow jay]

And read your tooltips, most importantly.

[leaden ginkgo]

if any healer is on rn the second trial in EW needs a healer 💀

[sage mist]

What time does challenge log reset?

[cursive ridge]

weekly reset

[faint flare]

!weekly

[zinc orbit]

Tick, Tock, Kupo!

Time Until Weekly Reset:

**<t:1641283200:F>

6 days, 11 hours, 32 minutes, 8 seconds**

[sage mist]

Thanks

[frozen zodiac]

12 hours ago and some change

[plain pumice]

noob question but is it still possible to get the ultimate alexander title and weapons?

[twilit arch]

yes

[plain pumice]

yay thx

[forest sage]

all ultimates are still available, difficulty shifted a little bit with the EW changes but still doable

[zinc panther]

What should I get currently with 2 Lines in Wonderous Tails?

[frozen zodiac]

what're your options?

[forest sage]

well if you don't need the gear right now to do normal raids, I'd keep the book until next week and get aphorism tomes to buy the new materials

since they'll sell for good money

[zinc panther]

Silver Certificate, 100k MGP 500 Stones.

[frozen zodiac]

all good options, do you want 100k mgp?

[zinc panther]

I still have to unlock a ton of stuff everywhere.

100k MGP maybe helpful for some stuff.

But I also have to level up/gear a lot of classes.

[frozen zodiac]

if you don't specifically want anything from the silver cert, and you don't specifically want 100k mgp, go for the stones and switch jobs to one that needs xp

[zinc panther]

Will there be a new Chestpiece next week in the Silver Certificate with Savage?

Current one is 510ilvl.

[frozen zodiac]

I don't specifically remember the rotation for those, usually the good stuff is gold cert tho

[civic flare]

Anyone who has lived through a previous expansion know roughly how many aphorisms I should save to craft a full set of gear next Tuesday?

[zinc panther]

What ilvl will the craftable gear be?

[frozen zodiac]

2400

580

[civic flare]

Oh my. I have to start farming again. Haha. Thanks!

[frozen zodiac]

should I do studium quests with ltw or wvr?

[zinc panther]

Thank you for the help.

[frozen zodiac]

I figured it out, whichever one is more expensive to buy leve turnins off the mb

wvr was 400k for leve turnins, so therefore ltw

[lime ore]

How much am I missing out on by not doing Ventures? I bet it's easy but it seems confusing

[mystic lily]

Unless you are a crafter, not much really

[frozen zodiac]

Ummmm, mine have made me about 4,000,000 gil this month

[boreal storm]

You just send them off to find items

[mystic lily]

But yeah, keep sending retainers on ventures, it's a good passive income

[boreal aurora]

is 6.05 masterbooks gonna cost purple scrips to unlock?

[frozen zodiac]

Maybe?

I forget if it was white or yellow scrips last time

[boreal storm]

Yellow

[frozen zodiac]

either way unlock custom deliveries this week if you haven't already, good amount of purple scrips for a few button presses

[boreal aurora]

i know

[boreal storm]

So it’ll be white scrips

[boreal aurora]

wdym yellow there is no yellow scrips

[frozen zodiac]

yellow were the stormblood purple scrips

[boreal aurora]

so its gonna be white scrips?

[hollow wind]

when turning in a fishing levequest, i noticed it gave me the option to submit more fish. is there a limit to how many more sets of fish i can submit? like is it just 1 more time or many more times?

[frozen zodiac]

that is what fuilteach remembers

[frozen zodiac]

sets of three turnins

[hollow wind]

so if the quest is asking for 3 fish, i could bring back like 12 total? or 9 total?

[frozen zodiac]

those were called triple leves and they were discontinued for current stuff

[boreal storm]

3 x3 = 9

[frozen zodiac]

if quests asks for 3 and its a triple, triple the 3

[hollow wind]

cool ty!

[mystic lily]

Charity leves iirc were the official name

dang kupo-bot telling me to vacate the channel. So glad my people got some positive representation this xpac tho

[leaden ginkgo]

kind of new to the game but does queuing always take so long? it never happened before.

[mystic lily]

EW discontinued all of the leve types for crafters, and nerfed the others severly

[frozen zodiac]

like to get in or for dungeons?

[boreal storm]

Too many people playing

[leaden ginkgo]

im noob

[leaden ginkgo]

damnnnn

[frozen zodiac]

oh, yea

[dire prawn]

Curtana/Holy Shield Nexus
Is this the ARR relic

[boreal storm]

Ye

[leaden ginkgo]

its probably because of the dlc

[dire prawn]

[frozen zodiac]

so my theory is that some of the savage raiders are logged in on two accounts because of how they think the gear drops are gonna work

[leaden ginkgo]

rip

[boreal storm]

Savage isn’t out

[leaden ginkgo]

where is the normal chat on this server. so many chats

[faint flare]

Raiders don't multi box

Hardcore do use alts for split clears however

[boreal storm]

And they’d know how the drops work

[small siren]

Unlocked Dancer but I can't unlock more skills until stormblood right?

Stll in Heavensward (55 msq)

[boreal storm]

@leaden ginkgo

[frozen zodiac]

they believe it will work one way

[faint flare]

You can

[faint flare]

It LITERALLY hasn't changed since Heavensward

[frozen zodiac]

nothing ever changes, until it does

[faint flare]

Outside of dropping coffers instead of raw gear

SE is forumlic as fuck

They don't change things unless they have to

[frozen zodiac]

not true

[faint flare]

If it ain't broke, don't fix it

[small siren]

Oh? It doesn't get locked?

[faint flare]

Only the 70 skill is quest locked

[dire prawn]

What the fuck are these 'Brugaire Consortium' NPCs?

[candid ruin]

is there a way to work out class properties to be like...percentages? like how is a critical hit value of 1115 affecting my crit chance for example

[dire prawn]

I have literally never seen these people

[faint flare]

!faq stats

[zinc orbit]

6.X Substat Tiers

Link to the sheet

[small siren]

Ohhh

Guess I use 4 classes for stormblood then. Don't wanna waste exp.

[candid ruin]

thanks

[boreal storm]

More like 2

[wintry trellis]

drops changing after they updated the old content to reflect the new content

[quiet condor]

What do I do for Eureka gear if I want to enter as Reaper, since there is no Antiquated Reaper gear?

[frozen zodiac]

reap things

[faint flare]

The kirin osode like usual

[viscid moth]

Pressing the 30 second potion felt kinda weird in my opener, does that take 2ogcds or did i misplay?

[quiet condor]

What's kirin osode, sorry I'm starting Eureka for the first time so idk anything

[wintry trellis]

It should be weaved in

[frozen zodiac]

you can do the maiming set from hydatos

[wintry trellis]

And should t take a gcd

[faint flare]

Potions are ass to weave yes

Single weave them only

[glossy flare]

Pots are not as responsive

Gotta spam the button

And never double weave them

[frozen zodiac]

um, so there were a bunch of items made specifically for eureka that enhance your stats in eureka

[quiet condor]

Keep in mind I'mm starting Eureka for the first time so I won't have access to anything basically

[frozen zodiac]

blitzring, kirin's osede, that hat

[faint flare]

Gear with elemental bonus on it and is one of the few things that will actually make you stronger gear wise

[wintry trellis]

Act like it’s a double weave. But don’t break your uptime trying to get it off

[faint flare]

Your gear doesn't matter in eureka unless it had elemental bonus on it

[quiet condor]

alright, so should i just jump into eureka without specific gear then

[frozen zodiac]

grab potions of harmony and some eureka potions, but yea basically

[boreal storm]

You need a certain item level

[faint flare]

If you're going to be there for awhile the osode is a good purchase off market to help

[quiet condor]

im not trying to do eureka for relic weapons anyway, just for the mount

[boreal storm]

Like 330 something?

[faint flare]

300

[quiet condor]

yeah im well above that, theres no issue

i remember something about seals tho

[faint flare]

Cryptic seals make the kirin osode

[quiet condor]

ah i see

do i buy seals or the kirin itself

[faint flare]

Either

[frozen zodiac]

whichever is cheaper, takes 2 seals

[quiet condor]

got it, thank you for the help

[frozen zodiac]

https://ffxiv.gamerescape.com/wiki/Elemental_Bonus

basically the osede is to help tide you over until you can get your elemental +2 or physeos set

[quiet condor]

i see, it seems that i can also meld onto the osode

does materia do anything

[frozen zodiac]

yes

[quiet condor]

aight i guess ill stack crit onto it

[boreal storm]

The stats don’t matter

[quiet condor]

oh what?

[frozen zodiac]

melds do effect gear when you're synced

[faint flare]

Only if the gear isn't synced

Otherwise it's turned off

[frozen zodiac]

which the osede would not be

[onyx kiln]

is there any differences between real life mahjong and doman mahjong ?

[frozen zodiac]

yes

[leaden ginkgo]

is it a plugin to make buttons that instantly switch your job?

[faint flare]

Drag your gear sets to your hotbar

[onyx kiln]

that

[boreal storm]

Just make a gear set macro

[frozen zodiac]

and use multiple glamour plates so it looks like a sentai transformation

[dire prawn]

Y'all

Hum emote

How to get

[frozen zodiac]

https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/The_Fire-bird_Down_Below

[boreal storm]

TLDR beat suzaku

[dire prawn]

So

Four Lords trials?

[sharp wigeon]

i bought an na code by mistake, im eu, what can i do

[frozen zodiac]

just suck it up and move to illonois

[dire prawn]

Move to NA

[boreal storm]

When exactly did this happen? Because they stopped selling the game a bit ago

[dire prawn]

That too

[sharp wigeon]

lmao movin sounds great

[bright hatch]

Texas for easier stuff

[dire prawn]

How'd you get a NA code if Square stopped sells

[sharp wigeon]

well

[bright hatch]

Just buy a mansion

[sharp wigeon]

g2g

[hot eagle]

probably did buy endwalker/expansion

[slate arrow]

[sharp wigeon]

nono

[boreal storm]

Banned

[sharp wigeon]

standard

[slate arrow]

Please stop shitposting.

[sharp wigeon]

?

dude

u want the f link or what

[slate arrow]

Also real talk if you got it from a non-SE supported store you can't do shit

[boreal storm]

Key resellers are frowned upon

[bright hatch]

^

[slate arrow]

other than return it and try again

[sharp wigeon]

i can try return yeah

[frozen zodiac]

I'm more concerned about how nonchalant he is about moving out of his own country

you good?

[bright hatch]

If u bought it from SE u might have had a chance but from a reseller. Then nah no chance

[sharp wigeon]

dunno whats SE

[bright hatch]

Square enix

[boreal storm]

But seriously no shitposting in #questions-and-help

You’ll get muted

[slate arrow]

Try not to shitpost

[sharp wigeon]

its not shitsposting

well

[frozen zodiac]

he was talking to me

and I'm sorry, its basically reflex at this point

[sharp wigeon]

dunno but its real

just happened

right now

[bright hatch]

Well we can’t really help you tbh

[sharp wigeon]

okay okay

[hollow tangle]

I don't know what it is but I keep dying a lot in what should be easy MSQ stuff.

[dire prawn]

If you bought standard edition from a key reseller there's nothing we can do to help you

[boreal storm]

Gear/job quests

[wintry trellis]

Gear check

[dire prawn]

For one Square stopped selling both Standard and Complete Editions on all platforms

All you can buy is Endwalker upgrade right now

[frozen zodiac]

what class? some make the msq harder at certain points cause they get different parts of their kit at different times

[dire prawn]

What MSQ level are you at and what gear are you in

[hollow tangle]

SMN. Lv 73

[wintry trellis]

This isn’t true

[bright hatch]

Uhh whats ur gear?

[boreal storm]

Are you in scaven

[bright hatch]

I dont think its possible to struggle in msq unless ur in drastically inferior armor then ur level or u just tank all the mechanics

[wintry trellis]

^ no classes kit is designed in a way to not clear or increase msq difficulty

[frozen zodiac]

not what I said

[hollow tangle]

It's fine. I'll just face tank it immediately, fail, then lower the difficulty.

[boreal storm]

Please show your gear

[frozen zodiac]

or at least your ilvl

[hollow tangle]

in MSQ cutscene.

[narrow jay]

for what expansion

[hollow tangle]

ilvl 283

[frozen zodiac]

should be like ilvl 400+

[cursive ridge]

that is very low, scaevan poetics gear for lvl 70 is 400

[hollow tangle]

I'm just returning from a long break.

[wintry trellis]

[narrow jay]

Well, there you go then.

[frozen zodiac]

voeburite is also very high

[cursive ridge]

the gear is available after completing the quest "Stormblood" at the end of 4.0

[narrow jay]

Gotta catch up on gear while you catch up on MSQ/job quests lol

[hollow tangle]

I didn't want to farm instances for gear just to advance MSQ. Not yet at least.

[faint flare]

You're undergeared

[cursive ridge]

grab some crafted gear from the marketboard then

[faint flare]

Vastly

[narrow jay]

If you're in Stormblood and can't afford gear yet, there are white gear vendors at Kugane.

[frozen zodiac]

MSQ will give him gear

what quest are you on in msq

[hollow tangle]

The MSQ gear is worse than what i'm wearing, lol.

[faint flare]

How

[dire prawn]

Not if he's stuck at a quest in the MSQ because of his gear

[faint flare]

At 283

[dire prawn]

Chromatic what level is the MSQ you're on

[frozen zodiac]

what quest is he on?

[hollow tangle]

I'm working to finish this arc at lv 70.

[twilit arch]

have you done your lvl 70 job quest?

[frozen zodiac]

283 sounds right

[cursive ridge]

that is the quest that unlocks ilvl 400 gear from vendors

[dire prawn]

Do you have Summon Bahamut

[narrow jay]

Likely running on outdated accessories honestly.

[dire prawn]

And the i290 job gear from doing the 70 SMN quest

Likely definitely

[onyx kiln]

how long is a match of mahjong? i tried to play at the novice table and the game never ends

[frozen zodiac]

the AI usually wins in like 4 rounds when I play

[narrow jay]

Eight rounds, four and four, but if the dealer for the round wins it stays that round.

[onyx kiln]

i feel we have passed at least 6 rounds

[narrow jay]

and if the dealer won any of the rounds, it stays that round =P

[leaden ginkgo]

this?

[faint flare]

Yes

[leaden ginkgo]
