Bye crown
??
You lose mentor status
How and why
Wait am i understand your question correctly?
I don't get it at all
That should be the mentor renewal noticr
Basically to keep mentor status you need to meet the new requirement
And if I don't, I need to start all over again?
Basically have lvl90 job for each role (idk roke quest needed or not) for combat mentor on top of the original dungeon + commendation requirement
Ik
it's the same reqs with 10 levels more, there's no "starting all over again"
You will lost the status, just need to reapply after you meet the lvl?
Brain hurt
So, if you had mentor before, you lost access to the mentor queue, and to your crown
You can still join novice network, and still get the XP bonus
Your commendations and dungeons run are not lost
you don't lose access until 6.1
đ¤ˇââď¸
well mentor roulette is different
you always lose access whenever new stuff is added
This is all in the patch notes
Whats confusing about that @_@
If you'd checked them
So I should renew asap?
To get access to mentor queue and your crown again, you will need to meet the new requirements
IK
I'm a trade mentor only, does that help?
help with what
explain your confusion here
hello, do you know when the free trial will be available again?
what don't you understand?
no we don't know
we know as much as you, i'm afraid
With ditching the renewal of battle? mentor
what about it
I swear it's sooo confusing
Oh okay i wish is available in few weeks
Ok, so you had both mentors before Endwalker, correct?
Yesss
So, when Endwalker released, you lost your crowns, and you also lost the Mentor roulette
not sure how it's confusing, new expansion, requirements are updated, meet the new requirements before 6.1 or else you'll lose your mentor status until you meet the requirement again
But you keep access to the novice network, and the XP bonus when partying with new players
I still have roulette locked even before EW XD
If you do nothing, then when 6.1 arrives you will lose both of those as well
He is trade mentor?
If you meet the requirements for mentorship again at any time (even after 6.1), you will regain access to the mentors queue and your crowns,.
So reapplying entails what?
Or maybe combay mentor that havent cleared all ex + normal content so its locked đ¤
go talk to the NPC again
Huh
Go find a mentor NPC in one of the main three cities (Ul'dah, Limsa Lominsa, or Old Gridania)
western la noscea, hall of the novice just north of aleport
I still dont get the whole point of having a deadline to renew
Because the requirements have updated
because people who don't read patch notes would then be "OH I LOST MENTOR WHY"
now they know why 4months in advance
it's just a warning that the stuff was updated and that you need to meet new requirements it's really not super complex
happens every expansion the removal of it and im sure game even tells u once also
what type of addons are not allowed besides dps meters? been thinking about getting some visual mods to enhance the overall look of the game but not sure what is and isn't allowed.
everything is technically not allowed
All addon basically "personal use, dont say" thingies
ALL modifications are banned
Its gray area
they don't actually ban for it, but everything falls into the category
really? i've heard they technically allow some of them
No one actually gets suspended for using addons (so long as you don't use them to be toxic) but all addons are banned
well I guess Gshade had a GM post saying it was ok but it's just a random GM and it was like 4years ago
Basically, use the addons just don't speak about them in-game
I think you mean "allowing" by keeping blind eye
Until it blows up and they need to take action
oh ok. so as long as it is kept quiet nothing will happen
they just don't care about it unless you 1) harass people with the help of 3rd party(why you DPS so shit) 2) post lewd screenshots on social media of your ingame modded chars
ok, thank you!
for the 2nd one they'd only be able to do something about it if you post your name, but there was one suspension a few years ago because of twitter posts of naked catgirls and other stuff
are the buffs your chocobo gets from getting feed things like tantaplants or sylkis bud permantent?
youâll be banned for something else before you get banned for using act or other tools
they're permanent until the chocobo is unsummoned or you log off
unsummoned/dies

okay
so as long as you keep it summoned(can use 2 gysahl to get 60mins) and don't have it die, you basically just need one buff food per day
and they're cheap so I always feed mine
are they what will show up at this box after a while or is it a different type of feed?
!daily
Dunno where to ask, so I'll just put it here. But is it possible to add kupo bot to my own server (fc)?
Ohh, that's awesome.
Is there any way to get lvl 1 materia for this quest?
I am on free trial
Do I just have to make it ?
Thanks btw
What DoL jobs do I need in order to do beast tribes?
What's the best way other than roulettes to level the new jobs?
Hunts are painstakingly slow
!faq altlvlguide
pixies under 80, bozja, dungeons/trusts
make gil then buy from mb
buy it from the marketboard, if you are on trial probably spirit bonding a lot low lvl gear
can you farm 750k mgp in one day ?
if youâre really lucky with cactpot
if not
or wonderous tales
!faq mgpguide
please the simple answer
but that much in 1 day is ⌠impractical 
Basically no
Thank you both
How long roughly would it take to get an alt through EW by skipping everything ?
a certain streamer did that and it took him roughly 2 days
but he did aether current stuff too so if you skip even that, might be even faster
Are there any other rewards to completing the hunting log, besides the XP reward? Finishing an entire rank didn't even grant a single level, and it took far longer than anything else. It seems like a waste of time.
Glamour ring for doing all of one classes log
Ehhh does the ring look good? Is it worth it? Be honest :P
No
Haha okay then :D
It just has the class symbol on it
I guess I could google that.
It's in the achievement menu

Ah okay, I will check it out now. Thanks.
Which section again? I can't find it.
Ah found it!
Eh, it's not bad. It's not anything special though.
Is there a quick way to open your journal via PS4 controller?
Not specific button no
You'll just get used to accessing it from quest log or hotbar button
btw for anima weapon, each weapon need 15 pneumite right?
not just 1 time quest only
ty ty
i got some spiritbonding questions
while gathering does the node difficulty has anything to do with spiritbond?
not saying the level of the node, more like the item that is being gathered, for example does a 1 star lvl 90 item give me more spiritbond than a lvl 87 item ?
all within the same node
yes the 90 1 star gives more
Spiritbond speed correlates to the level difference between the equipped item and the enemies slain, the level of items gathered, or level of the item created by a crafter
i think it is necessary to continue your grand company ranks
or actually there is a grand company hunting log
i don't think so, i found it great exp wise when i was at around that level.
other than that, i think it's pretty outdated
thanks alot for the reply, i now know my course of action u.u
what's the difference between summon ruby and topaz?
one gives fire and the other earth
sure
but does that even matter lol
they're the same cast time lol
They're not
bro
the fuck is a rite
the spells that the summons trigger
ok
That's what they enchance
kek
!action Ruby Ruin
!action Topaz Ruin
Yeah so Topaz is for noobs who can't cast swipe
Longer cast but higher dmg vs instant and lower dmg
gotchu
You use all 3 before the next charge
You'll want Topaz/emerald for parts where you need to move so you can dps while moving
Is there a difference between the fairies or just different colors?
Are you not from the US? lol "colour" :p
Us spelling is stupid
What are all of the XP gain items? I have the Brand-New Ring and the Mephina Earing, is there another one I can get?
friendship circlet
recently found out where to buy the edenmorn gear but saw that i need to trade in books to get the gear. how do i get the book of eternity for example? i'm guessing they drop as rewards for doing specific raids?
Important question- Why is every second player I see named Yuki or some variant thereof
because weebs
do savage of the eden promise raids
they drop in the savage raids that the gear drops from, it's basically back-up tokens to guarantee you'll be able to get the piece you want if you don't win/drop it in the raid
sounds hard. never done anything above extreme so where do i start?
i'm guessing looking up videos that explain the mechanics then trying it out in party finder is the way to go but since i main tank i'm a bit afraid i'll only let down the party :/
There's no guides really week 1
As with anything, learning is trying and failing until you don't fail
@green grail how do i get the friendship circle
Hi everyone! I'm playing on the PS5. Is there a way to add chat-text to the hotbar, so I don't have to type the same message every time? Thanks!

Refer a friend
If youâre referring to eden specifically you can unsync it now with echo and itâll be more lenient. Youâll still have to do mechanics and stuff. Savages arenât hard by any means given you can understand how mechanics work.
Watch a guide, prog, clear, get happy brain chemical, reclear
thanks for the encouragement. i'll research the fight and try my best, thank you!
for ffxiv, do i want music headphones rather than gaming headphones
since you dont really need surround
You can get whateverâs in your preference really.
is second ex trial for ew guaranteed mount drop ?
no
no, its a chance to drop like every other extreme
No, it has a chance to drop. Not guaranteed
someone said in pf 8 runs one mount for each player
Someone is wrong unless youâre that lucky
You will need to do it now for a chance. At most you will need to do it 99 times keeping the totems to turn in for the mount at a later patch
after savage content relaese does players still wanna do 2nd ex trial ?
Farming extremes for mounts never really dies off
People still farm old EXs
You can make macros for basic things you might say a lot, such as greetings or ggs, and anything else you might say often, then add said macros to your hot bar . Macros are pretty useful
Not to mention free gear for lvling alt jobs
But you donât need to talk much for most content, aside from Hellos and ggs I barely say anything in parties
Crafting, using white scrips to buy blue scrip tokens to exchange for it
Thanks, will try that! Yeah, it's basically for the hello's and goodbye's haha

ok thanks
but if you don't have crafter leveled, can do amber vilekin instead. just start a combat leve from ishgard and look for a chest spawn
if no chest spawned, abandon and retry
Just don't try to macro your main battle skills
There's also a couple orchestrion rolls locked behind Amber vilekin
i already had my answer but i forgot so every floor of pandemonium gives 1 token per week is that it?
yes
^
o
normal weekly reset day
!weekly
you have to check the balance yourself, too early to update bot commands
since there's possibility of potency changes in upcoming patches

Here you go fren
whats the best way to level at level 38? dungeon spam and levequest?
Dungeons
How to augment skysteel tools? Where can I see the requirements too?
The stat boosts at max level can be nice and there are some items you can only craft when that job is your specialist
But you change your specialisation 3 times a week anyway sooo
how hard is to obtane a item wchich i can change specialisation later ?
Never do combat leves
any recomendations to 3 specialists ?
ok, im super broke at the moment. What's the best way to get crystals then, plain gathering or ephemeral nodes?
ephemeral nodes is a quite good way of grinding them up
if it's ice crystals you're after, spearfishing the appropriate fish too
Changing specialisations is almost a complete non-issue. Take whatever specialisations suit you best at any given time.
in general though, aethereal reduction is a very effective way of getting crystals
need fire and water unfortunately
You get three changes a week for a pittance of just a few hundred white scrips each
tho tbf my fisher is pretty neglected
Aetherial reduction
most fish desynth down into water crystals, so you can kill 2 birds with one stone there
thanks
one more question, is there any way to get aetheryte tickets? Going from one node to another is gonna eat through my savings quickly fi im frequently doing 1k teleports
they come from centurio and allied seals
both come from hunts, and the latter you can get a very generous amount each week from the masked carnivale, although that will demand you level your blue mage and fill its spell book
If youâre trying to cut down on teleportation costs, you might want to look into free/favored destinations. Those are a godsend.
yup, particularly those that put you close to other destinations you want to go to
EW Zones ||My current destinations are Sharlayan as my free, and then Radz-At-Han, Camp Broken Class (Garlemald), Poiten Oikos (Elpis), and Limsa Lominsa||
||Garlemald puts you close to Mare Lamentorum, and Elpis puts you close to the First||
hey i got a question about potd i died at the floor 100 boss
does that mean i need to start from 51 to get the kanna unlocked from getting to 101?
or can i do 91 to 101 with 1 ko count
you dont need to get to 101 for kinna
just clear 100 and probably do a follow up quest
ahhh ty very much
Would someone be able to help me run through the Kugane Ohashi trial for the hildibrand questline?
ive been seeing misinformation around so im wondering if anyone knows what the actual reward is for completing all EW areas for shared fates

Getting max rank in all zones unlocks the Sharlayan and Radz-at-Han vendors

How to augment skysteel tools? Where can I see the requirements too?
Hey guys, for monk I canât figure out combo to proc rising Phoenix
One of each forms during perfect balance
@faint flare thanks I see it now
Some guides I found require HQ. But thereâs no more HQ right?
is Urth's Fount soloable unsynced?
At 90, yes easily
trying to figure out which WT to do and Titan/Leviathan Ex doesn't seem appealing
lvl 80 tanks
If the tool.is for a crafter hq still exists, if its a gatherer you just gather the requisite amount
titan would be quickest
probably
was able to beat him in like 20 seconds with the new echo.
They're all about the same tbh
I tend to be weak at platforming and whatnot so Levi Ex tends to be out of the question
Where can I see how much I require?
If its crafter that depends on your ability to get high collectability on the crafts. Higher means you can make fewer
For Miner
The guides from previous should have changed the amounts should be about the same
I'm short like 20ilvls for Ghimlyt dark. I've tried looking at the market board but nothing is available at my level. What's the best way to grind out that last 20 ilvls?
get your poetics gear.
(just finished ARR but not in HW yet) is there anything i can spend my tomestones on? i have max tomes but already have full ironworks gear

Are job quests replayable via NG+?

Anyone know where I can find the last aether current? https://prnt.sc/25a1o39
use your compass.
waiit compass?
Yes
Is there any glowing tools for DoL? đ
Duty > collection aether compass
The aether compass
Duty > collection > aether compass
The entire thing how you're meant to find them in the first place
Can drag it to your hotbar
Several

the thing you're meant to use to find them, lmfao
and not yknow, spend hours combing for them manually.
Oooh I seee
Also, in Bozja map, I have to go to certain spot but itâs crowded with mobs. I kept dying so I canât progress the quest. Should I ask help from party?
Or just toggle walk
either that or they're tied to a specific weather condition
They even say this lo
Does the game tell Astro which cards do what or do i google
thanks King
You still need help? I can hop in to bsf atm
You donât have to memorise any of the cards
All the relevant info is on the hud immediately visible
I see. Iâll check it later. Not a fan of Bozja quests tbh
The border tells what role to use em on
Blue background = give to melee, purple background = give to ranged/caster
I still do but Iâm out for now. Iâll dm u later?
Sure. You in elemental yes?
Later they also get one of three crest thingies which are also shown on the hud
Yup
Even thou new players cant get into the game rn, is there a way to download the launcher? I could check and see if my pc has enough space to install it
Does it include dragonsung tools?
will the starter edition be available?
!faq launcher

!faq download
gfdi
smh
Last I checked they haven't made a comment as to when to expect sales to resume
I don't think that step but I am pretty sure the last step glows.
Tks
can you not send friend request or form a party as a free trial? 2 of my friends are in the free trial and they can't friend one another or make a party
Is there any glowing tools above that?
hey anyone know what this chestpiece/robe is ?
No you canât, this was mentioned in the limitations list
I believe that is the makai bard top?
yes, its makai so its no longer obtainable
There are some achievement based tools that have glow effects. Like the resplendent and blessed tools.
Thanks!
Ok, installed the launcher and made a account. I assume the Registration code its asking, i can only get after they are done fixing the issues going on rn right?
Pretty much yeah, also worth mentioning that you'll probably want the free trial first anyway so having that launcher probably not the most worthwile
wdym? The free trial is a separate launcher?
yes, but you can't make a new free trial acct atm
i see. Welp, hope i got enough space for it once i am able to xd
Including all the expansions and stuff you're looking at about 60GB according to my folder size
how do i expand my chocobo bag?
Sub to the companion app
oh so its a monthly sub?
On the companion app yes
I know there's an unofficial census done every so often
Does said census usually state how may players have every job at max level?
the census is extremely inaccurate and shouldn't be used to make any meaningful conclusions
do they ever do balance changes on savage patches?
RIp reaper
Hey there, hope you are all doing great, I'm close to finish my ARR Relic Weapon for my Dragoon, my next step is : Zodiac Braves Weapons (iLvl 125). I gathered and farmed everything I had to but I need to have my weapon (Gae Bolg Nexus) equipped to complete the quest but it looks like I somehow probably deleted my said weapon.. ?
Is there a way to retrieve a new Gae Bolg Nexus so I can complete the quest ? :x
no
do /isearch Nexus in case of
if you can't find it, then you have to redo the quest and get another nexus
just got assize and I think I saw that action in a loop somewhere, how does it work?
any images of it somewhere?
Jesus, well fook then, thanks for the answer
you might eb able to get it back by contacting support and using your one time recovery
but don't know if it's worth it
don't throw away unfinished relics basically
I think the "loop" is just the assize action being constantly replayed in gpose
since gpose loops the last action used
rotation is, assize is up? press button
its an aoe, so....
It's an ogcd, or rather it runs off its own cooldown
If it's off cooldown and there's something to hit, use it
it's a dmg oGCD so it's used on cd regardless
ok, usually held it until 2+ in range
Is it normal to leave castrum and take the penalty to then que for preatorium?
If you're an ass
Does preatorium give more xp ?

what are the penalties for leaving at the start?
30mins duty finder penalty for the first person
first person to leave?
Yes
what about the people after that?
Nothing
oh wow
Just the first guy gets punished
If you leave while the party is full, you'll take 30min, no matter if someone left before, as long as the party is full and you leave, it's 30min.
That also means, if at any time, someone else leaves and the party is not full, you can leave without a penalty.
Yeah and be branded an ass
As if xp is an issue
Also why? You don't get punished for staying since you can recruit mid dungeon? đ¤
Cause then people doing story will never get castrum done
Cause everyone keeps leaving
Thus defeating the purpose of the roulette
Hi there, what is the best way to level BLU?
I dont think i've ever experienced a slow of abandoned castrum
solo? get missile and killing enemy same level as you (missle dont work on higher lvl enemy)
if you have friend. just ask them to go to lvl 70 area. you aggro/tag mob and let friend kills it for you
ah lol. damn. Sadly friends dont play this grahh. I migrated from WoW.
If you're on Aether (preferably Gilgamesh), I'd be willing to help you.
I am on crystal sadly.
if only you in elemental i can also help ahaha
So I like helping randos.
hahaha I was asking around lominsa, with no luck. Offered gil too lol
Wow, really?
imo try find people to help you.
lvl 1-70 probably took max 2 hour
although its boring af ig ahaha
@true jolt doing solo?
the cheese with friends one
solo will take wayyy much longer
good luck with the leveling. just take it easy đ

whats the fastest way to farm aetherpool grips? is it to make grips everytime u get to +10?
just don't let it become yellow color
yeah careful to not over convert to the point you are "lower" than recommended level for said floor
Healers dpsing
thats it?
Yes
ty
green can also refer to parse colors on fflogs, depends on context a bit although people usually do refer to healers as green dps too
how can i unlock yellow scrips on collectables ?
yellow scrips are the old scrips
anywhere you see yellow scrips referenced, think white scrips instead
white and purple
btw will I be able to convert aphorism stuff to the new one coming with savage?
white replaced yellow scrips, and purple are the new level 90 scrips
aphorism armor stays without upgrade
no, not what I meant
oh my bad, what do you mean by aphorism stuff then?
is there a reward for getting rank 3 for fates in all EW areas?
i think unlock npc at radz that sells new item?
iirc in shb it was possible to convert the old tomestone to the new ones with a conversion of 4 to 1, no?
ohh.. that need to wait till 6.2
does anyone know what it is?
both radz-at-han and sharlayan open their gemstone stores
aphorism and the new capped token coming next week will be our main currency till next tier drops (6.2)
Ah, I see
after that aphorism will be convertible to that capped where the capped will be uncapped and we got new capped currency till next tier (6.4) and repeat
ahhhh okay. and then you can purchase the fallen wings and rhino mount
thank you
If I wanted to put together a glam with the most stupidly difficult to obtain glam items in the game (that are still obtainable), what should I aim for?
understand, thanks for the info
I cant find the client download, can someone point me in the right direction?
assuming you are not free trial of course
do you still need help for the bsf? i need to sleep soon x.x
thank you
Starting out reaper
Looking at this spell, it's a cast. Does it become relevant later on outside of your blink making it insta-cast?
you never use this
Kk, so low-priority keybind
i dont even have it in my hotbar
if you cant reach boss use soulsow
still have use for it
I don't ahve soulsow unlocked yet, I think
I'm fresh reaper
just trying to allocate my hotbar
but ultimately, yes its low priority keybind
whorl of death essentially shadow of death, but lower potency and AoE right?
ye
i just finished stormblood, and i havent done any bosses except ||sephirot ex|| since heavensward, ive just been playing MSQ for a couple months going slowly. do you think i should do stormblood bosses and work backwards or go clear heavensward
ive also heard about a boss called TEA thats supposed to be extremely hard, is this a heavensward thing?
clearing ex is never a priority
TEA is Shadowbringer content
Tea is shadowbringers and itâs an ultimate
ah okay
i want to clear all the hard content and stuff so i wanted to take a break from MSQ and do some of that
Extremes - savage - ultimates
so i wasnt sure where to start
i mean, finding party for old ex is challenging. mainly people just want to do it unsyc
Does my basic starter combo, slice > wax slice > infernal slice ever divert into multiple combos like Goring Blade & Royal Authority?
You can do UWU and UCOb after clearing o4 and o8 savage
Uwu and ucob are ultimates
im at the beginning of post-stormblood

ah dang
i think ill go see if the old heavensward stuff is getting cleared, i play healer so i guess it wont be as bad
Like a previous statement most people do that content unsynced. So the difficulty is removed
how many runs of the crystal tower raids do you need in general to max out your novus relic with light?
think i might ask my fc
21, can be less if its on bonus (source: https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Nexus_Zodiac_Weapons/Quest )
what are the conditions to get the bonus light?
@dense pier I'd say MAYBE when you have to jump away, like certain fights, and can't be near you can use it once or twice. Every little bit helps ;). (Unless something else gets learned towards 90 I'm not done yet).
its random basically, you need to test/clear it to know if its on bonus or not
Does my basic starter combo, slice > wax slice > infernal slice ever divert into multiple combos like Goring Blade & Royal Authority?
iirc it reset hourly at 00 minutes
soulsow
I don't think so but I'm not maxed yet so don't have all abilities.
if im level 70 i can solo ARR bosses right? HW?
communio
oh my bad, 2hr it is, its been some time since i done zeta
k ty
no way you can solo HW at lvl70
ARR maybe yes
Thanks @jagged wave figures there'd be something else ranged.
soulsow is not ranged, it basically is a charge up attack
yes
high potency aoe
Can i see how much till my squadron finishes a mission in a menu somewhere and not in the barracks?
like here?
Yes, thanks
Okay so, fresh Reaper. What should I do to get exp. I know there are FATEs but is that it?
run lvl69 dungeon?
but make sure you already have an idea how it works. dont go in blindly
I guess yeah, spam queue that
but that's the fun part!
uhh.. test it on dummy
dont slow down whole dungeon cause you dont understand how your class works
#1 start your job quests
#2 START YOUR JOB QUESTS
#3 69 dungeon and fates
Oh shit, almost forgot job quest
What does it give me? a skill?
ahhh
So yeah do that
Yes
https://i.imgur.com/NuuFX04.png anyone know the name of these wings?
ewwww
guys, how should I go from Old Sharlayan to Ilsabard if i don't have the aetheryte crystals unlocked?
gibbet and gallows have different directions?! lame
flank is side, rear is the ass right?
modded.
ala mhigan quarter
what is this ?
a vista
stand on it and /lookout
it's for the sightseeing log
ah
they actually made them visible starting from HW, thank god
There's also a plugin to add this functionality to the arr ones
Won't help with the time and weather bs tho
will tome of aphorism be used for something else, or Should I just buy moonstone gears?
Just started playing red mage again. Any idea why they changed acceleration? It messes with my dual cast and I knew I wasn't imagining it. Since the next verfire or verstone is cast instantly
not sure how it'd mess with dual cast but haven't played it much, don't you just dual cast a spell then accelerate the next so you directly get another slow cast?

so fast > slow > weave accel > slow
The old version of Acceleration forced Verthunder and Veraero to give you charges of Verfire and Verstone three times.
Now it only works once per charge.
yeah not sure how that messes with dual cast?
like I know how it worked and how it works now, just don't see the problem
it messes with it because I think I go into my verfire to verstone
but instead of that
it cast instantly
making me start all over
that's kinda on you though?
the new one is better for movement
it's basically swiftcast
with 2 charges
on top of normal swiftcast
so you can extend movement without having to use Reprise
so instead of me going to jolt accel to verthunder, verfire, verstone I got to jolt right after verfire
I'm not a fan but I guess I might get used to it
So I just did the blue stormblood quest where I need to help the wolf person get a job..it didn't unlock anything at all though. Why would the quest be blue, if it's just a pointless sidequest?
unlocks a beast tribe once you do the other blue quest in there too
the namazu questline there, then there's a quest with both, then you can do namazu beast tribe
OK, then I'll allow it lol
Thx
Can I join the alliance quest solo?
you can queue solo, it'll match you with people if that's what you're asking
Gotcha, I thought I'll need to hunt for alliance 
Heyo, what are the best ways to grind for combat materia? I've been doing hunts. Am I overlooking more methods?
to unlock violet scrips i need to lvl crafter to 90 ?
Best way to make gil?
Hey everyone what's the best way to get level 90 gear if you haven't caught up to EW yet? I'm almost done with the post shadow bringers patches content but I have 2 classes at 90 and I want to gear them up
its simple.. you cant?
tome gear locked till you finish EW, AF gear is from MSQ, raid gear need MSQ, extreme gear need MSQ
you dont need lvl90 gear at all when your accessible content still 80
There's 0 reason to get 90 gear
Since you'll just be synced down anyways
But if you want a "decent" way
grab some high quality 90 white gear from the market board
The main reason I wanted it was for unsync farming shadowbringers extreme trials
Currently using IL 500 gear
Also I never see higher than 88 on the market board
Why arenât you using cryptlurker
well you can wait next week, just ready your gil wallet
anyone my question ?
hi guys I'm lvl20 now and I did job quest. I want to have mount , but I can't find the quests
violet scrips
Msq, do it
what is Msq
!faq msqtracker
main scenario qeust
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
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.
That
your mount is locked behind lvl 20 MSQ not lvl20 character/job
just do msq and farm trials unsync when you finish ew. you aren't going to easily get level 90 gear without finishing msq, it's that simple
unless you want to spend 10mil+ gil on crafted gear next week
ohh ok thank you very much đ
What do F1 and f2 spaws get you when waiting for chi?
me when only 40 people in queue during primetime and i actually get to play đ
no but fr any news on having free trial come back? really annoying since finally convinced my friends to try it and then boom no u can't sign up
They will tell us when sales resume
About to play warrior again. What are the best way to use our mitigation actions, some heal and others reduce, when should I use each one?
Noob here đ
Im lvl 50 black mage now, where do i get good Equipment or just do Mainquest until lvl 90? 
Where are you msq wise?
|| where is hermes in the hungering gardens? ||
Lvl 43 msq
Just play msq and the gear will be given to you
Okidoki đ THX đ âď¸ â¤ď¸
It's not hard, just look around a bit
i have been here for 10 minutes im literally blind
Heâs behind a rock
Itâs glam now
Oh
Iâd do it when youâre done with pandaemonium weekly limit.
Not sure where to ask but trying my luck here - does anyone know when world transfers will be available again? It's been weeks. đŚ
I am trying to wrap my head around relic weapons? What are they?
A long grind for BiS weapons for an expansion
what's the lore reason that the Nier ||raid ppl have this bandage over their eyes?||
Is the namazu beast tribe for dol/doh classes?
they're tactical goggles. not bandages
replace bw with the blue one if youâre not there yet
@heavy wadihow do they see thru fabric?
technology 
i see...
But arguably your most important mitigation on warrior is vengeance
this is a question for nier lore fans and not for this channel though.
it's a question about ff14, so it's relevant to this channel
Where do I buy the game from? It's not available on steam
They have disabled sale of the game at this time
you can't buy it due to the extreme number of people playing right now, and no we don't know when it'll be available for sale again.
When will they start again tho
Sen do you know the max reputation rank for ARR beast tribes?
it is but tbh not many can answer it here cause the depth lore is in automata not in xiv

@true jolt i figured maybe it was explained in what we get of nier in ff14
Rank 7 then after do 1 final quest can go to 8
4 for non ixal
Then allied
Waitt, did thry just skiped rank? After 4?
Are there jobs I should avoid taking into Extreme/Savage?
ARR tribes are weird
I really like MCH but I know they have really low dps
play what you want.
Stop looking at dps
Mch is low dps because itâs a ranged class. It will never out perform melee
phys ranged DPS is always lower, and "really low" is quite an exageration
Tbh... Even nier automata player like me still confused af after finishing the raid story. Yoko taro mske the raid story damn vague and let player intepret meaning themself, thats what i experience
!faq metameme
So Bard song's don't stack even when two different bards are singing eh?
No
Ignore dps, as long you dont die and do rotation you are doing your job
They take the same buff space
so who trumps who?
lol
Bc itâs just a % increase and not based on bard stats
Is there a bot command for specific job rotations?
!faq thebalance
I cannot stress this enough tentative or not the balance will remain a top resource for job learning
@true jolti did some googling, the other dude was right, they are a visor. they can see just fine without it, but using it gives them enemy data as if they were in a game with a HUD
So apperently there's a way to make sort of dropdown menu macros to switch to different jobs? Like having one for DPS, tanks, crafters etc
#protips-and-ui has a pinned doc about it
How do you do that and is it possible to do it on Console?
yes
@serene steppehttps://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/9rj7qg/collapsing_hotbar_macros_for_a_clean_ui/
Is it possible on cross hotbars is the more accurate thing I should ask
does anyone else encounter sound completely disappearing? is there a fix for it perhaps?
Its not anydifferent
Ob wait this would require to mess around with different Hud Layouts
Nevermind
I would have to make two identical layouts and I'm too lazy to do that
collapsing hotbars are not for the lazy
I just want more slots to add Jobs in
macro /gearset instead?
I could try something weird and homebrew
well /gearset opens the gearset list, makes it easy to pick from there
Like make tf so that it changes which Jobs appear on the hotbar changes
does the star next to a datacenter mean anything?
Does anyone know of an updated guide to AST? Everything I was able to find either didn't exist or is "Under Construction"
@celest quartzhttps://www.fanbyte.com/guides/astrologian-job-guide-ffxiv-endwalker-changes-how-to-play/
Appreciate the link đ
it didn't change a whole lot, but that guide was helpful to me
Wait can you do Namazu quests as a gatherer?
yes
Huh
Is there any way to set a macro to loop itself? Trying to make collectibles for Ishgardian Restoration
I thought it was crafter only, g2k
no macros don't loop

Im at lvl 55, is there anyway to experience my job skills at max level before switching to other jobs?
whats better to get with khloe i got 2 lines
If I upgrade a relic and liked the old look better is it possible to get the old glamour back?
How difficult usually are savage raids, compared to extreme? Are they harder? Are they the same? I was thinking could I able to do savage next week, but I never done it on current content before, so kinda scary
Anyone else crashing all the time after EW?
U could probably do ex from fresh to clear woth buncha randoms in a night
Afaik they are harder than extremes, but if you have an fc or friends to party up with then itâs worth giving a few shots just to experience it. Itâs not impossibly difficult though.
Savage is like⌠itâll take some days
Therea more shit that can kill you instantly
And there are no guides out when it launches, so most people doing it week one are going in blind
Dps checks are stricterer
Why do my CRP, ARM and LTW all have higher health than the rest of my crafters, if - apart from tools - they all wear the same exact gear?
Like the current ex trials, you ccould die like 9 times� And meet enrage
Probably not gonna fly in savage
If my fc doesn't raid these things I'm screwd?
Not at level 55 no, but if you get to level 71 and complete up to 5.1 iirc, you can unlock an extra zone where everyone is synced to 80
as healer should i be portioning out ogcd heals as when needed or do i just almost always use them as priority over gcd heals?
Make friends, find people, or⌠use party finder
ideally you want to cast as few GCD heals as possible, so you can keep doing damage
yeah like i've heard that but does that mean i use ogcds until i have none left then start using gcds as a rule
or is it more moderate than that, like prioritizing ogcds but not just exhausting all of them
yes, oGCDs over GCDs
Party Finder is a good bet, just make sure your gear is in order (mine sure isnât )
Anyone help me tell what pieces are used in this glam just found it on google without info
The legs look like the Choka ones given in the Stormblood msq iirc
Iâm not too sure about the top and helm though
Man... People are gonna be putting that stupid "one person per job" thing again, aren't they?
being a reaper main is hard
Iâm a tank main so itâs not too much of an issue, only 4 to choose from 
But if you unlocked reaper you should have another class at least at 70 right?
Are there audio only ex trial and raid guides?
If you really struggle to find groups perhaps consider switching for savages
âŚ.not that i can think of
It is unbelievably difficult to explain anything to anyone without an accompanying visual
Hi guys. So I was doing the crystal tower quests and for some reason I am lost I donât know what quest I need to do next and I have no indicator on my screen. How can I see the completed crystal tower quests Iâve done in my journal so I know where to go next?
how should i go about using my rolls in the enw raid, playing war, should i aim for like chest and leg token, or see what i get first then try get that
I know that your position is saved every 0.5seconds, how does that work with positionals? Are positionals client-side or server-side, meaning I shouldn't use a positional until I've been on a flank/rear for more than 0.5sec?
I have all roles at 90, but only rpr has 575
all others are 570 or less
Should be in the chronicles of a new era section, the third tab in the completed quests part of the journal
Thank you Iâll look!
Ah, I see your point now
Its gonna be hard to gear a class up in the next few days
Iâm still sitting at only 565 on my DRK, still havenât touched Ex 2
weird question but is there a way i could check what number style of miqote tail is on?
You could try to make a retainer and see which one looks similar to yours, but I donât know of any direct ways if that makes sense
oh got it ill just try to make a new character then and just compare it lol
Yeah thatâs another way of doing it
Donât know why I thought of retainer first lol
Ex trial 2 is not bad. Go for it imo
Is Au'Ra avaliable on free trail?
Yes
Cool
any1 here who could help me with managing how to play songs as bard correctly? I got the prog and bard 30+, all connected, but it all sounds awful lol
Does anyone know the gatheringskill needed to cloudfish in the diadem?
Not really, cuz there's lots of visual cues
you just talk to the minstrel in kugane market area
where?
It would have been directly to your right (south on map)
Are you sure you've done all the patches?
i'm in 5.2 right now
And you didn't unlock it already?
weird. can't join someone who's put up a party finder thing for it
says "required duty not yet complete"
so they want to do it blind then?
but in the description it says "know meteors" which makes me think they want you to know the mechanics xd
oh well
now i know
ty
That means they fucked up their own pf
hahahaha
Am I able to save keymapping for one class and just switch whenever I switch class? or do i have to constantly re-map
you can't switch keybinds, you can move abilities and hide/show bars but the keybinds always stay(might be mods to do that though not sure)
You can't join that PF cause YOU haven't completed the duty
That's what it's saying
That's what the duty complete tag does
oh so that's what it meant
Stop people who haven't cleared the fight from joining
but i'm sure i've done it before
must have died and given up in that case
You'll collect them over the following weeks, and then you'll be able to exchange 7(?) of them for a weapon later
Get 7 to buy the Discal tome for thr 590 tome weapon
oh ok thanks @tall mountain@faint flare
Can someone answer a quick Post ARR Pre HW lore question for me?
if i want to find a party through party finder and do a trial unsynced do I have to fiddle with some settings in party finder to do it unsynced or do i have to do it through duty finder?
!faq unsync
isn't there the pandemonium raids in savage or something? i was hearing about new savage dungeons and all
In your duty finder window select the âď¸ icon on the top left to open up the duty finder settings window.
Inside that window select the setting undersized party before confirming and entering the instances of your choice. NOTE: UNSYNC-ING AN INSTANCE WILL FORFEIT ALL OF YOUR EXP AND COMPLETION REWARDS. Poetics from a first time completion bonus and loots chests remain the same and will not be lost. You may not queue for daily roulettes using this method.
||Does Ishgard have multiple barriers/wards/whatever around it? I just saw Iceheart dispel a barrier and Im not sure how big of a deal that's supposed to be. I read something about multiple wards and Im a bit confused.||
Savage is next week
Yes, they'll be released next week with patch 6.05
ty!
The story will explain itself to you as you keep progressing. =)
We talking kinda soonish?
I know that's not much of an answer right now, but it'll make sense soon.
yeah
oh ok is there like a website to see what they gonna add or something?
or just wait next week?
your next expansion is focused on ishgard, so if you have any questions about the city-state you'll get your answers
Ill be kinda upset if you guys are like "Oh its explained in Endwalker" or some crud đ
Just savage, crafted combat gear with new pots and food
and the required items to make it
Ontop of balance changes
reaper is gonna get nerfed đ
My general thoughts as I play is "I have no idea if this is supposed to be a big deal or not" when it comes to any action :/
nah, it's the very next expansion for you (heavensward), which also means that some of the ARR patch content will address it too
(assuming you aren't in heavensward already, if you are point still stands)
I plan to be there by today
When I do the Ixaal deliveries quest, can I deliver as much as I want? Even past the whatever limit he actually wants for the quest?
Well deserved tbh
no let me exploit his damage đ
Nah
reaper damage charts are funny lol
reapers doing meh damage beating out other classes doing above average damage
A Job with raid buffs shouldn't be outdpsing a job with none
So either reaper nerfs or everything else brought up
then i hope everything else brought up đź

Huh. Thanks. I'll check it out.
She says she's checked, I'm double checking now, since I have the name of the quest now.
Search the completed tab for Legacy of Allag (search is case sensitive)
any setting for making hotbars appear when you mouse over them
Mvm
Nvm
We figured it out
She's dum
In fact, she actually declined and walked past this quest at least once because she didn't realize it was the next one.
can anyone help explain the DRK first quest. i gotta consume darkness and find knights i guess? but, i already did everything in the area but nothing happened
any bard players who play music here? I'm trying to get this work and I'm losing my mind, pls msg me xd
Where does the 80 dragoon quest start
Alberic in Central Coerthas
Not what I expected thanks
question, in ff logs how do I see just a single (1st, 2nd, or 3rd) clear of a fight I uploaded in a batch? it's giving me the option to see all, or just the last
click on the encounter at the top and then find the encounter you want to see more of, on the right click "show all"
gotcha, thanks
am i missing something or they haven't added any beast tribes yet in EW?
6.1 content
no tribes yet
well, we assume they will do lolloprits and mantya as beast tribes
but entirely possible that despite announcing them as beast tribes during Fanfest, they may not use either
has that happened before?
yes
shb had nu mou announced as beast tribe
we got qitari instead
and iirc sb, they talked about have the qiqirn as a tribe but that didnt pan out
huh interesting nu mou wouldve been nice
platforming? what
