Just to check, A9S is Eyes of the Creator?
yeye
Can you just ride hand/land white scrip Lv80 to Lv90?
as someone who did it, yes
or will you have to get new gear at some point
should be enough yeah
can take land/handsaint to 90
Radz has one
the appraisers are always in the end game hubs
what do yall do with the job quest gear rewards? my storage is running low and im thinking of tosing em...
not the major cities for the expac
You can safely toss lv70, 80 and 90 ones
lv50 and 60 ones need some grinding to get back

Okay so just to make sure, if I want to level up my crafters I'm going to need to make collectibles. Looks like they use standard materials right?
Does HQ materials affect collectability?
is it a grind u can solo unsynced?
HQ mats do increase starting collectability
Hrm
I think so 
lv60s need allied(?) seals
Centurio then
And lv50 gear takes those green tokens from lv50 dungeons that sometimes appear
oh if it's just ARR/HW hunts, lol ez
how do i unlock the mor dhona fishing leaves? i don't seem to have them
is there a guide for leveling crafters?
oh thats what those are for? good to know
mb level 45 for fishing levels
Oh I almost forgot.
You can also do GC turn-ins for a massive amount of exp.
Did mining/botanist turn-in get buffed because you can't get HQ basic mats anymore?
Looks like it
is there a guide for leveling crafters?
I watched I think despirius' video guide on YouTube. He goes over ishgardian crafting. Pretty quick
I got all crafters to max level 80 last expansion in like a couple days
ok, thanks
Leves/restoration/GC turn in
gc?
Grand company
is droprate different for the orchestrion rolls in ew dungeons if you do them with trusts?
no
seems like i'm missing 5 triple triad npcs. anyone know how many npcs are locked behind beast tribes? i think i only have 4 beast tribes maxed out, the rest untouched
There's like 4 locked behind eureka
got those
hi guys, my friend is new and needs to buy lvl 50 gear for the castrum meridianum dungeon. Hes on free trial so cant use market board, where can he get lvl 50 accessories?
maybe i just need to go through a whole list, cause i got some cards from just killing bosses
spend Allagan Tomestones of Poetics at any of the vendors in the three major cities of ARR
https://triad.raelys.com/npcs has a nice way to track them
they'll be marked with a blue bag near the aetherytes
you can put in what cards you have and itll auto-calculate which npcs youve definitely fought
he doesnt have any yet 😦
he hasnt finished praetorium yet
oh, right
did your friend do recruit-a-friend?
nope
in that case, check if he's gotten his level 45 gear from his job quest
he got armour but no accessories
does getting partial credit for an S or A rank hunt still count towards the count for the hunt achievements?
You may want to run him through another dungeon then... what's his ilvl?
currenty 35
darn. if you can find a way to get those rewards, RAF rewards 10 silver chocobo feathers, which can be exchanged for an augmented ionworks weapon and armor piece even before finishing base ARR
idk what the time limitation on RAF is but might be able to swing it (oh also idk if it requires paying for the game itself)
what ilvls are his accessories, top to bottom? What ilvl is his weapon?
Just do your job quests
17, 5, 18, 34, 5
they need new accessories wtf
accessories under 50 don't really matter
left side and weapon are far far more important
have they got their i90 gear tho?
omg i just asked him and he hasnt opened the attire coffer
lmao
well i think he is above ilvl 45 now
maybe check out the accessory vendors? if its a matter of improving ilvl for a dungeon theres almost definitely upgrades there
yeah he needs to get better accessories too, but all the vendors sell accessories which are around ilvl 30
For him, at this point in time the accessories are w/e
he'll get better from post ARR msq
and can use the poetics he gets from prae/castrum for the ironworks weapon
yeah i think after praetorium he can finally buy that
yeahj exactly
If you are relocating an FC house does the gil have to be on you or can it come from the FC bank?
has to be on the person doing the relocation
Okay so in order to have multiple people "attempting" to relocate during the ishgard housing rush they'd all have to be funded.
Right?
Multiple FC members
yes
You can only get 450 tomes of astro a week right?
Not even enough to buy 1 piece of armor, wow
where is isghardian restoration again?
ishgard main aetheryte > firmament TP
thanks!
Is hagakure really important to have on your hotbar?
It helps keep your oGCDs aligned. You'll ideally use it once every minute to keep things flowing.
Can you get the whisper a go mount or was that an event exclusive?
Event exclusive. No word on if/when it'll get another rerun.
Wait you actually use it in combat? I thought it was just to reset sen after a fight.
Yeah, otherwise your oGCD timers get funky and your burst windows get messed up.
If I put something in the Glamour Dresser will it remove it's dyes?
Do heals like Adlo refresh the current shield on them?
So if I cast adlo, the shield goes to 50%, and I cast adlo again, does the shield just delete that 50% and overwrite it with a new 100% shield

unless Im doing smth wrong is it difficult to limbo the tank HP in ShB dungeons
Is it quicker to regen GP by sitting idle or by auto-gathering a node?
Cordial
That wasn't what I was asking
does the astronomy reward from khloe let me go over the 450 cap?
No
Ok so I'm lvl 48 and I can't access the next msq till lvl 49 but the only area I know of to grind lvls atm is only 45ish quest wise is there anyplace I can get to and quest at that would give better exp?
Roulettes/ aurum vale
so I have a macro set up for Dragon Sight:
/micon "Dragon Sight"
/merror off
/targetpc
/ac "Dragon Sight"
/targetlastenemy
with the intention of not having to target someone in my party, and to have it do that for me.
I have a few issues with it, and I'm not quite sure how I can fix it:
- it feels like I have to hit it a couple times for it to go off
- I can't use it just on myself if nobody is nearby
How can I work around these with a macro?
unless Im doing smth wrong is it difficult to limbo the tank HP in ShB dungeons as a SCH
There isn't a lvl 48ish area I can quest in yet? Or is it locked behind the msq?
Does anyone know if theres a quick way to run dungeons for glamour, or is the only way to run it by syncing to its level and running it normally?
do i have to accept hunts at the board to get the rewards? Or should i just go and kill it whenever someone calls it?
Do I have to have a free company before I can get retainers?
The Quest isnt showing up for them in my city
no, retainers aren't tied to free companies
You can run dungeons unsynced
you get access to them once you complete a certain lv 17 main scenario quest, but you can't be on the free trial to access them
Can I check if I am on a free trial some how?
@ripe hound How would i go about doing that?
I do have a membership I know that
And I also finished the level 17 story quest but its still not there :/
if you have a sub, you're not free trial
then you need to just talk to the retainer vocate in any major city to hire a retainer
Okay Ill find that!
if i'm already on pc and wanna play on ps4 for when i work out do i have to pay for full endwalker or is there a cheaper license i can get
anyone have extra complete edition cd key for sell? i have a friend wanna join the game, but they stop selling the game right now. please help
oh right, can i even buy a ps4 license rn even if i'm on pc?
is anyone getting the weird question marks when you try to login
yes, that's intended rn
OMG this 576 queue
i wish my servers had a queue that small rn lmao
stormblood spoilers ||is yotsuyu smoking opium? ||
how do I carve the rest of these items?
does aetherial manipulation bypass AoE?
like, if there’s a big insta ded puddle between me and person i’m warping to, will i die?
believe so.
e9s no more than 2 players could be on a single tile, and AM would count you as standing on that square
that’s a different situation
sorry, i mean you'd count as standing on all the tiles you warp through
so same situation
but say e9s, the centre sq is ded zone, can i for example at S warp to N?
you still count as standing on, and moving through all the tiles in between you and your target, so still assuming death
where do I get stuff to craft from ishgardian restoration?
mostly diadem
like where would I find skybuilder yew log?
alright say I wanted some of the stuff thats higher level to get, do I need to increase my level?
lv/gear
gear stats is your main way of increasing gathering chance but you also get a -5% penalty for each level difference between you and the item you collect
well I was told that crafting this stuff would be a good way to level up my crafting
but i wasn't told I'd have to farm this stuff myself
clearly I'm missing something
where did you think the mats would come from
it's either get them yourself or spend tons of money buying them
i wouldn't have an issue with it exceeeeept there aren't any noticeable recipes for the basic stuff I find

I got 90k'd, then 2002'ed... now this... What do I even do? I've closed the launcher numerous times, and even restarted my laptop to no avail.
the message kinda speaks for itself, connection issue
you could try the quick launcher
Where do I find that?
!faq xivlauncher
ooh
if that doesn't work, then the issue isn't the launcher, its your connection to Square's servers
D:<
where can I find recipies for skybuilder stuff?
you could try rebooting your router
but if its an issue with your internet provider, not much we can do to help
I may have to, because now my web pages are timing out, too
ah, ok yeah you have an internet issue then
ffffffffffffuck. I was at the start of a double run of Delubrum... UUGH.
And it took over an hour to get in the game at all, naturally..
https://i.imgur.com/tlGh4Yd.png is this hairstyle avail for hyur and how do i get it
is skybuilders yew log still available to find?
if it's not Grade 4, it is likely unavailable
they should have really removed 1-3 stage recipes from the crafting log but they didn't for some reason
i guess it's for those five people who still have the mats and want to craft and turn them in
sooo I can't craft anything from the stuff I find in the diadem??
i'm like level 21 and the only things I can craft are plywood
on carpenter I mean
aaaand I can't even find the materials.
there should be recipes for low level grade 4, look in the ishgard(4) section of the crafting log
isghard crafting log section?
So coming from WoW, is it the same when it comes to endgame where it's raiding only?
endgame is what you want it to be
Hey quick question, how do I unlock the warrior quest, I'm a level 30 marauder and I've done all the marauder quests and I've looked up online that the guild master is supposed to give you the warrior quest, but for some reason he won't give the quest, is there anything I'm not meeting requirement-wise?
gear for alt jobs
can you only get the "adventurer in need" bonus if its the first time you run the roulette that day? Or can you run on one job, then swap to the one in need to get the other one?
I do not see the special isghard 4 crafting tab, where exactly is it?
adventurer in need is infinitely repeatable
really? i did not expect that
oh, thanks!
likely requires MSQ progress, keep an eye on your MSQ tracker, when the quest for job is available it will appear under your MSQ quest name
Yea but if I have no interest in gear farming for jobs what else is there? At least that it involves optimizing my current job at cap
Oh ok
At the very best, I'll invest in SAM, NIN, and DRK but that's about it.
why are you limiting yourself?
Other jobs don't interest me
you have to try them before you jump to that conclusion
the endgame is basically raiding only if you're not into any of the more role-playing oriented stuff
as for raiding, it depends how far you want to optimize
or if you just want to clear
I'm good, thanks. Ranged DPS doesn't suit me and neither does healer
savage will take weeks or months to clear
that also depends on your group
Ah
My fc is doing savage the new one
they still not cleared the first one yet...]
i aint touching that thing with a pole xD
Is there a piano only version of Flow like the one that pplays when ||Hermes is asking Meteion about the distant planets after the dungeon ||
if you mean orchestrion roll to my knowledge know
but if you want to install the porch plugin
you can just play it whenever
isn't that the basic version of flow?
I invested a lot of time in M+ back in WoW so I'm learning the ropes of how things work in FF14
I've played WoW only during crusade/cataclysm
Play what you want, dont limit yourself.
but compared to all other MMOs I've played, I'd say FF raiding is average to slightly below average in terms of difficulty
depends on the type of raids
I know mythics can be compared to savage
Then there is ultimate raid
as someone who likees to play everything at least to try it
FF14 is wayyyyy more inviting than Wow ever was
i had probably a dozen alts back in the WotLK days
dont think ill bother making an alt in FF14, at least until ive basically done everything on first char
my statement was basically referencing highest possible difficulty in any game
Are Savage raids those 24 man raid?
savage are 8 mans, 24 are alliance raids
there is 1 unique content that is up to 48 that is kind of hard
Ah
anything else with 24 players is meant to be super casual/easy
it's loosely organized
think of those as special FATEs
Lol
the 48/56 man ones
Really having fun with this game,
What is the highest wep ilevel rn?
605
yes
or augmented tomes, which is really suboptimal
but right now augmented tomes is savage only, so yeah
there's always 2 sets of gear that compete for highest ilevel: savage drops and augmented tome gear
to augment your tome gear, you need a drop from savage
ah
the last point will change every odd number patch, e.g. 5.1
I haven't been playing that long, but I've never seen augmented tome weapon be BiS
it's almost always the savage weapon until the final relic stage for the expansion is out
then it's that
How do I get this
Isn't that an anima weapon?
I have no idea
antiquated version of this is no longer available
you can get the regular version for 140 centurio seals
which is 10 ilvl higher and dyable
centurio vendor in ishgard inn
I don’t know how to get centurio seals
you have to do centurio hunts
unlocked in the ishgard inn if you've already unlocked ARR hunts at your grand company
I asked earlier but didn't get an answer.
What's a faster way to regain GP. Is it standing idle, or whacking on any node with auto-gather?
And if your follow up question is what are centurio hunts, do the blue quests at the ishgard inn
neither. cordials
That's not helping
I don't want to use a cordial for 70 GP
I want to know what's quicker, idle or whacking a node
only through higher mining level
It takes forever anyway for GP regen
equally slow imo, but standing around is less effort
So you're saying at higher level, it's quicker to whack something than to sit idle?
So yeah, level miner/collector you want, get some accesories so you don't run out as fast, bring a bag of cordials for when you do
whacking regen doesnt get improved as much with passives
no you get a gp regen trait
but thats all
kk
you have to use cordials or go idle
get more gp friend
whacking speed depends on your latency
or have better accesories
i hope you have gp accessories on
this ^
how do I get stuff approved for isghardian restoration?
does item quality impact desynthesis?
I have 804 gp
talk to the npc near to where you zone in to diadem
I think I'm fine
in the firmament
which guy?
oh wait the inspection guy
hq items dont have impav=t
yeah thanks!
Determination is better than direct hit rate?
depends on what class
Reaper sage and black mage
!faq balance
Thanks
Question
I've been subscribed for 60 days
but I don't know where to get the advent children outfit
if you're eligible for stuff you get it mailed to you
think I got the hang of isghardian restoration, thanks everyone!
Wait
When did they make separate white scrips
1 for gatherers and 1 for crafters?
or was that always a thing and I never noticed?
I have so many white scrips from gatherering and idk what to do with them because I have a ton of collectibles to throw in right now
those require trader's tokens lol
you buy tokens with scrips
yeah
but is there nothing else?
Also were crafters/gatherers white scrips always separated?
legendary books for other expansions
far as i know yes
get gear for retainers or 9 materia then
Unrestricted means unsync
I havent cleared P2S, if I go into P3S do I lose my chance to get loot from P2S?
Yes
alright tyty
@ripe hound thank you!
ayyy
okay so I am unsure what to do here.
Should I level up by spamming craft collectibles or do I go to the fermament and grind out with restoration?
But if I do that then I won't have scrips to get crafter gear at 80 then
Is making high-collectible gear no more difficult than high-quality 100%?

If you "max out" trusts can you take them in level 90 dungeons?
only msq dungeons
How do you farm aetherite tickets?
hunts
you do blue mage carnival weekly
and turn those allied seals into tickets
that's about 120 tickets a week
Is there a website that has relatively up to date rotations for lvls 50/60/70 etc? I only really need it for specific jobs but if it had one for all of em that'd be nice as well
You get 3 allowances every 12 hours, so 6 leves every 24 hours.
99/6 = 16.5 days.
any way to turn leves into gil this time?
It'd be pretty hard to mass produce gil like before, but you can make a little gil by gathering the items yourself, making them, then turning them in.
Since they generally lowered the gil rewards while jacking up the amount of stuff you have to hand in.
is there a way to have macros repeat themselves on loop while crafting?
use autoclicker
autoclicker?
an external program that clicks stuff for you. generally not allowed but eh
hmm
yes, its jut not as efficient as it used to be
Thank u
Best way to level gatherers 80-90?
leves
or just straight gathering if you need a bunch of materials for crafting anyways
Where do I unlock these for 80-90? 😄
for fishing i'd recommend farming the fish that you can reduce into moonlight aethersand
Yeah, straight gathering with the EXP boosters on levels you just fine.
Collectibles speed it up considerably.
leves are in old sharlayan
Handing in a maxed out collectible will give you a million EXP easily.
Alright thanks ^^
With decent gear, you can easily get 2 or 3 1000 collectability items for as much EXP as a leve in a fraction of the time.
The main caveat is keeping up with the spawn timers.
omg I gained like 12 levels doing ishgard restoration stuff, totally paid off! thanks everyone who helped!
is there a guide somewhere to the fastest way to get squadrons done to the point you can rank up your GC?
i think its pretty much
do the training regimen
3 times a day
and send them out on the highest level squadron mission you can
theres command missions to but idk how good the exp is there
Wanna ask if endwalker is up for sale now?
not yet
Oof okay
command missions for squad xp kinda sucks, but it's nice for leveling up dps classes i guess
they will do an announcement when it is
just a worse version of trusts
savage raids made the queues go up again
Are there any exclusive rewards from finishing the studium?
i think theres a minion?
when you complete the final quest
after finishing all of them
a Golden Dhyata
yes, endwalker is still on sale
if you mean just the expansion
Yeah just the expansion
Oh
oh sry about that then
Do you have it?
No worries. It's all I need to buy anyways
can bojzan clusters drop from fate mobs?
they drop from mechs only
Do gathering leves not have quick gather buttons? D:
i think you get them from fates sometimes because people pull in the surrounding mobs into the fate and aoe them together
nope
welp good thing I got a quick burst button lol
best way to level up gatherers?
why did they make expert roulette give 60 and 40 lvl 90 tomestones when selecting all the duties in expert roulette gives you 80 and 50? lol
For the meme?
That's the roulette bonus
That's 60 and 40 on top of the standard 80 and 50 roulette reward
expert roulette is essentially there to make sure the last lvl90 msq dungeon still has people queueing
since it's not part of leveling roulette

is there a better way to level up gatherers?
Diadem, Leves, later collectables and custom deliveries
and daily GC turn ins
for anyone that uses Mch do u ever use flamethrower? or is it a really useless skill?
thanks
It's good for AOE
its aoe of course you use it
bioblaster > autocrossbow > flamethrower > spread shot
Flamethrower is unusual in that it's dot tick every second
Instead of 3s
!action flamethrower
Delivers damage over time to all enemies in a cone before you.
Potency: 80
Duration: 10s
Effect ends upon using another action or moving (including facing a different direction).
Cancels auto-attack upon execution.
Triggers the cooldown of weaponskills upon execution. Cannot be executed during the cooldown of weaponskills.
huh cause i know i been told just to just not use it its very bad the bioblaster for the win etc etc. mostly due cause u always have to move due to mobs aoe while ur using it
but just wanted to make sure
what

spread shot has that upgrade, but I forgot the name
Scatter
ya i just remember that lol
!action scattershot
whoever told you that doesnt know what theyre talking about
not found what?
scattergun
all aoes are useful
and makes it look way more badass, a freaking pump action shotgun
no hop/10
cool cant wait to see it
I don't think XIV has any useless skills now
At worst, you have highly situational skills
scathe .__.
SMN's Physick
Scathe is still scathe
Scathe is the bottom of the barrel movement spell
Fair point with SMN physick though
so it still has some use just... very rare to use scathe huh?
Physick has absolutely no use in level cap content
wonder why they kept physick
If you are new to a fight, it is better than doing nothing
ah.. ok then
If you have done the fight over and over again, you should learn how to shift your spells around
To avoid using scathe
physick on smn 
physick would be a downsynced SCH's heal I guess
i think even if you have to move isnt it better to just move a little and cast rather than use scathe?
Not even that, smn doesn't have the right stat to use physick effectively
is it really bad to spend Meikyo charge on Yukikaze? should i be trying to always spend one of the charges on Gekko/Kashaing a Higanbana?
like as long as you're not moving too far
happy they kept resurrection at least
Then again I dunno how much the fairy can do
Where to hide hotbar numbers and can you hide the arrows that cycle through hotbars which appears on the first one?
This is assuming the case where you need to keep moving for multiple GCD
For example, back to back AOE in P2S
and the button below
Thanks a lot!
And assumptions is made that you run out of all your other options: triple cast, Xeno gloss, Firestarter, thundercloud
Scathe is the absolute bottom of the barrel spell, but it does serve a purpose
think i leave black mage to the pros..
i guess the question is, is 5 kenki worth 90 potency loss
but then how will you be pro yourself
Probably not
i shall pro summoner and reaper i guess mr bread
black mage isnt even that much harder
eh i guess just dont really enjoy it per say cerberus?
actually... if you spend that kenki on kaiten midare it's worth 82.5 potency
so it's a minor loss to spend meikyo charge on yukikaze
but not worth worrying a lot about
Oof. Collectible gathering is so much quicker/easier to level than collectible crafting
oh
How does FFLogs DPS ranking work?
one is all time, the other is based on the past two week i believe
The raids (Savage) haven't been out for 2 weeks though, so wouldn't they be the same?
i got not clue .___. thats what i was told
probably better of asking in the balance discord
they should be able to answer it better

One is your run compared to other people's best record
The other is your run compared to other people's run
The number on your profile is the bp one
Can you buy or sell triple triad cards on the market?
No, you can sell them for mgp
Gotcha
is there like a global timer thing to know when the next heavensturn fate is gonna happen?:o
How much does the meta usually change from x.0 to x.5?
what's the best chemistry for squadron? scrips or gil?
Sqenix strives for every job to be viable and balances around that. Beyond that 
im personally aiming for DoH/DoL materia from squad chemistries
don't they only sell for ~200 each? usually the squadron brings back 5/6 per member
everything else is a lot easier to get though, no?
do you sell the materias or?
I'm still in post HW so I might be missing some use of tier 4 materia?
tier 4 materia is used on the ARR relics, so they can sell for a decent amount of cash
tier 3 is needed for some ARR relic step
DoH and DoL materia can be used for ARR relic?
which you can't buy from vendors, which keeps their prices up
DoH/DoL have their own arti weapons i think?
im dumb i didnt read that part mb
but i've seen a few get used for overmelding later
check your MB there may be a demand for a certain type or two
they're mostly selling for around 260~ each
wouldn't gil be better in terms of profit $_$
theres doman restoration if you have the full game, where you can sell stuff for 2x the gil every week
market price or vendor price?
I'll keep that in mind, thank you!
just started leveling my crafters from 80, what should i spend my excess white scrips on?
if you unlocked the radz scrip vendor, probably the new masterbooks if not materia
do gatherers have a macro on collectables like crafters do
I've been doing ARR main story quest, and I just got to a boss
what do these symbols mean?
Can you get only one unsung blade from p4n per week?
do we know if they're planning on adding shiny primal weapons for dancer and gunbreaker?
i have a question to ask regarding pandaemonium savage tokens
i cleared p2s without knowing my inventory is full and could not receive the token (book)
is it possible if i do a rerun this week in order to claim the book?
sadly you lost it for this week you only get 1 loot chance per week for savage till they remove the limit later
oh my thats really sad for me, then what about the coffers and loots? i did not manage to obtain any of it during the first clear
so can i rerun to get the coffers/ tomestones?
i am aware that it is also 1 item/coffer per week
yeah you can rerun to get the items
do they remove the limit next patch

Wait wasnt usually on savage if you dont get loot, thats it for the week?
yeah for savage you only have 1 chance
Iirc back on shb you cant run savage infinitely until you can get loot you want
If you dont get anything on that week clear, thats it. Just book for that week until reset
!faq savageloot
Per tier:
First floor: (Belt/Earring/Necklace/Bracelet/Ring) x3
Second floor: (Head/Gloves/Boots) x2 + Weapon Tomestone + Tomestone Accessory upgrade
Third floor: Head/Gloves/Boots + Legs + Tomestone Armor upgrade + Tomestone Weapon upgrade
Fourth floor: Weapon + Chest + Random single weapon + Mount + Minion
Loot Rules: Following each weekly reset, every player has a chance to obtain loot from the Savage encounters of the current raid tier. Upon clearing each floor, you will obtain 1 book specific to that fight (e.g. Book of Anamorphosis) and a chance to roll on the loot from that floor. Regardless of if you obtained loot from your weekly clear, you will be barred from rolling on loot from the same encounter until the next weekly reset.
Entering an encounter before clearing the previous floor(s) will relinquish all rewards from previously uncleared floors. (e.g. Entering E12S before clearing E9S for the week will relinquish loot from E9S, E10S, and E11S.) You will lose a chance to earn a book and your chance to roll on any loot that drops that week.
The number of players in your party that have cleared/skipped the encounter for the week will also affect the loot you will get after clearing the encounter.
0 players cleared: 2 chests
1-4 players cleared: 1 chest
5-8 players cleared: 0 chests
this is kinda wack
oh my, which means i cannot do another run just to roll for the loot
for this week
ðŸ˜
Yep your p2s loot just vanish to thin air. Good luck on next week though!
generally my luck in rolling loot is very bad and i usually need to go extra mile to farm all books just to get the loot. The same happened to me for E10S to E12S
i am not sure why, but i guess it is what it is. I'll pray my my luck will be better next week and i'll be sure to clear inventory this time
are the materials you get from gemstones in endwalker stil profitable?
Why wouldn't they be?
As a level 85 gatherer, is it still viable to do the lower 80s leves? Or should I always just go for the 3 highest?
can anyone explain how the rest of endwalker will go gear, ilevels, and raid-wise? When can I expect the next set of savages, will they have high ilvs, eg 610+?
isn't the weapon 605?
Average cap is still 600
so we have now and 6.1 to gear up and slowly clear this set of savages?
So for all intents and purposes it's 600
6.1 is just a new set of raids or?
6.1 is catchup
?
We get savage raids and cap increases in even numbered patches
We get catchup mechs for ilevel in odd number patches
Via new extremes and alliance raids
how do catchups work?
catch up will enable even casual players to get gear 10 ilevels below max
They offer higher level gear
Can I use this channel for asking about technical advice? Having some problems with the game running
That doesn't require savage
#technology-discussion is better for self explanatory reasons
current max is 600, so catchup patch will be ilv590 gear?
Aight
Yes
but isn't astronomy already ilv590?
it comes in the form of:
-crafting gear being augmentable
-tome augmentation material can be acquired outside of savage
-alliance raid dropping 590
Catchup patch also allows augmenting of limited tome gear
And you're limited to 450 of those a week
and what would drop the augmentation material? alliance raids?
yes
Basically
by the end of an odd patch
you can get max ilevel without ever having touched savage. it will still be a bit worse than BiS due to substat distribution
but like yeah
will there be gear lockouts?
yes
One piece of alliance raid gear a week
you can get 1 augmentation token from alliance raid a week also
so I can't no life gear my subclasses then
One tome augment token a week
what about extremes?
basically irrelevant past the .0 expansion
It'll be 5 levels below augmented tome gear
So the best weapon if you don't do 7 weeks of normal raids for the tome weapon
Extreme
Singular
so armor still needs to either be crafted + augmented, or astronomy for ilv590?
Are daily roulettes still worth doing for xp at levels 70+?
Yes
for the last patch of an expansion, relic will overtake all weapons as BiS
You don't NEED anything for the most part
but that's not until basically the very end
It depends on what you want to do
oh yea, why 7 weeks of savage for weapon, don't you need 8?
i wanna do savages lol
I said normal
you can do them right now
with just crafted gear
they're designed to be done at that ilevel
7 weeks of normal raids for a tome weapon
wait huh?
Every clear of p4 normal drops a sword
this savage tier is meant to be cleared with i580
normal raids for a tome weapon? Which ilv we talking about
ALL level 90 content drop tomes
Have you looked at anything that you got for doing normal raids yet?
im really confused now
and there's a token you get
which you need 7 of
along with astronomy tomes
to buy the weapon
so you can't just buy the astronomy tome weapons, you also need to clear 7 weeks of normal raids?
yes
And have you checked the vendor for the discal tomestone?
i don't even know which vendor is that from
The pandemonium normal vendor
okay i get it now
is it a thing to rely solely on savage drops to gear one character and use astronomy for the other?
If you want
can you register new accounts in the offical launcher?
No
No new ff14 accounts can be created at present
At all
@ember magnet your bis will ALWAYS be a mix of augmented tome gear and raid gesr
And the savage raids drop tome augment materials
ok
Does anyone know what is the maximum concurrent users per world currently? I understand it used to be 5k when the game launches
So you don't really want to do that, but you have MONTHS to gear alts not to mention extra raid gear if you clear fast enough
How do I use the glamour dresser and armoire? What's the difference really?
Armoire only let's you store specific items
Can you cast glamour from either?
Yes
You can access the armoire items via the glam dresser
Armoire just saves u glam dresser spots. Seasonal event items, achievement awards and other specific stuff can go into the armoire
good question. not sure if there is a hard cap
750
according to :
As if breaking its own concurrent record on Steam and completely selling out of digital copies of the game wasn’t enough, Final Fantasy XIV has made headlines again as it pushes forward release dates on player capacity updates for the game. All over the world, players are anxious to get back online and experience
that’s not the cap, that’s how much they increased the cap by
ya the wording is odd in that section
That's also from July
usually how many months is it to the next patch?
yes it is saying that for the EW rlse, they plan to up the simultaneous logins by 18k
Even if I told you that it would be inaccurate. We are in uncharted territory
Dev time is hurt since they contributed testing servers to help manage the severe load
And 6.1 is gonna be a fucking monster patch
Since its also set to include island sanctuary
nah i'm just looking for some historical data
Island sanctuary, alliance raid, new housing
don't care if its not a good representation
5.0 was late june, 5.1 was late october
okay thanks
Just remember that likely means nothing to endwaljer
well, it tells me that its at least 4 months, most likely more
next set of normal raids will be with 6.2?
ye
And savage
Savage comes with normal after the first tier
First tier is delayed cuz it's with a full expansion launch
same time same day for 6.2 savage raids
normal will drop 610
add 30 to the ilvls for the gearsets out now and you have the calcs for 6.2
crafted 610, tomestone 620, savage 630
crafted gear released at the same time as well?
Basically everything in 6.01 and 6.05 at once
Oh yeah we're due DSU in 6.1 too
So yeah it'll be a while
6.1 will have ultimate, island sanctuary, new msq, allaince raid, and new ex

oh yeah ultimate 
did we get confirmation that pvp updates would also be in 6.1?
Also, possibly fem hroth 
though probs not given they haven't even shown any footage of it yet
😔
That doesn't have a patch date
So that's suuuuper unlikely
yea hence possibly
Especially under current circumstances
I think so
So regarding the maps does everyone get the rewards running through it?
Or is it that roll system?
it has both stuff that everyone gets and rare loot ppl need to roll for like minions etc.
theoretical only one but ppl often make it so that everyone brings a few of them since rare loot isn't guaranteed the same with the portal/dungeon it's also not guaranteed to spawn
and ppl use different loot rules some groups/parties use ffa or owner need rest greed etc.
Gotcha thank you very much😃
hi if i do fresh practice on p3s without completing p2s, will my weekly loot for p2s be forfeited?
yes
ouch that sucks
are red onion helms back in the quick venture circulation?
what they look liike ?\
how do i return the chat window to its original size and position?
hello everyone. I'm new to FF14 and still playing in the trial version. Last night I've decided that I want to stay and change my trial account to a subscription (I also bought the Shadowbringers addon and have the key right here). Two major problems so far:
- When I try to redeem the Shadowbringers code in the mog station, it says "invalid code", which is probably a result of my account still being trial and "inactive"
- When I try to "Purchase Full Version" in the mog station, I get a "Error -24201" message proclaiming that due to maintenance the site cannot be accessed
So my questions are if there really is maintenance or if this is part of the "we stopped sales"-shenanigans that is going on since Endwalker launch and if there is another way to transform my trial account into a subscription account.
thank you in advance!
gotta wait until they open up sales again code should work then
Because full customers get queueing privileges they don't want to add to those numbers
Keep an eye on gaming news, this is still big enough that most places will report when sales reopen
Kinda insane they still haven't reopened sales
alright
They must have lost a shit ton of money by now
i think they still get solid revenue from resubs and shop items

Minus the free 3 weeks
yeah minus the 3 free weeks
Which is about 20 mill usd of given away cash
Well yeah but consider the fact that it happened right after expac launch with a ton of hype around it
Like, they are losing out a ton
Oh christ
Here we go again
@digital lake there literally hasn't been hardware on the market for them to buy since before the big explosion during the summer
i’m of the opinion that most people who cared about EW were already super invested in the game prior and probably preordered/bought early after release
heya guys a pc player gifting a console player is possible right? cause friend says only 12 digits is on ps store while the code is 20 digits
Each platform is a different code/license
You'd have to buy them a PlayStation license from sony
Unless you're talking mogstation items
Side note, they're not selling licenses either atm
oh yup
redeemable even by console?
even if pc bought?
WHEW THANK GOODNESS
!faq mogstation
panicked when friend said only 12 digits was available on psn lmfaooooo
If they need a link
tyvm!
Well glam is the true endgame
? Yeah ik, i wasn't trying to argue they should reopen sales, im just surprised that SE isn't greedy enough to do so
Outside of how much budget the team gets, yoshi p has full control
what's DoH/DoL gear equivalent to shire's gear for HW?
He's on the board now
i see. is gear grind not that grindy compared to wow? only got to lv 49 back then you see lol
White scrip gear
From what I understand of wow: LMAO XD
aight tyy
Now, getting specific items for a glam can be grindy
ahhhhh
it took me an hour to be raid-ready for this tier
But in terms of bis gear at endgame
so kinda like legendary items of gw2
Not grindy, but difficult
You have to clear savage raids for bis gear
And that shits HARD
i’ve run the 4.1 dungeon maybe 20 times now looking for a very specific piece and i still have not gotten it
Fun, but hard
oh ok. yea i'd take that any day of the week over tedious grinding lol
This is unfortunately common, BUT you can check for gear with shared models using stuff like garland tools
Might even find a dyable version
ffxiv would rather you do the fun fights for gear rather than grind all day for it
We don't have choreghast
Gear is just a means to an end to just get into content
Depending on patch, you need to do either ex trials or complete endgame relic as well for BiS
looking for the ||skallic coat of fending|| which people have told me shares a model with the ||sao gaskin coat of fending|| and is durable but i like the default color of the former
You could check dyes but iirc it won't change that blue back to orange so yeah, sorry
it’s fine, at least the dungeon is pretty comfy to run
what's BiS gear btw?
Best in slot
Current best gear for your job
Ofc this will change when new content eventually releases
But current bis gear will be pretty much static til 6.2
OH

so before registrations were closed, i accidently bought ffxiv on a different steam account than the one i used to make my ffxiv trial account
if i use that steam account when redeeming my registration code on mogstation will everything be fine?
what's this badge mean? never seen it before
Steam just gives you a code, you should be fine to use it on any ff14 account
Pf leader
Pf?
nice thank you
Party finder
When doing content at the level cap of old expansions(50/60/70/80) you'll get a currency called "allagan tomestones of poetics" , once you finish the base expansion you can buy gear that's at the level cap of that expansion. This will make the patches easier and will last til level x4/x5 of the next expansion once you get there. This keeps gearing nice and braindead til CURRENT endgame
If I'm trying to level a job quickly and spam dungeons, I won't have enough poetics to even get the full left side. Is the only other way to buy the weaker crafted gear on the market?
@open smelt so that should cover you for gearing for quite some time
Just use dungeon drops until your daily roulettes stock you with enough poetics
Leveling a tank though, will I be tanky enough?
oh ok. so like after one finishes hw one could purchase some armor that'd last nearly the entirety of the next expansion?
Well, until that expansions patch content.
Also make sure you're doing your job quests
They'll give a coffer of a full set of armor at the end of each expac as well
How good is that armor compared to market/poetics
At least this time they put it in a such a spot that it’s literally impossible for anyone to miss
Yet they do
.... if they’re that blind, please just uninstall the game
Maybe reconsider your hobbies and/or go get an optician
I've had at least 3 cases of missing it so far in this very chat
cutscene skippers most likely
You literally can’t skip that cutscene
the NPC isn't exactly marked as "job gear seller" so its easy to miss
if you dont pay attention
what about the one after that
only the one where you stand around no? The one before and after is skippable i think
The game goes so far out of its way to make it the most obvious it’s ever been
System message too
^
There’s really no good excuse for missing it
As i said, if you dont pay attention and are just trying to rush the msq
Except having an out of body experience during the explanation
The only way to make it more obvious is to make obtaining the gear itself mandatory
Yet whynojobquest exisrs
Because stories’ done. Move on
Whynojobquest has a time delay between you seeing that message and then reaching high enough level to accept the next quest
By which time you can easily forget
But this one is right in your face
And most of them wrapped up in Stormblood, making the level 80 ones in Shadowbringers super forced and hamfisted
Am I unable to run the level 90 dungeon with a trust after I've completed it once?
Level them up or use scenario mode
It doesn't show up in the selectable ones in Duty though
Trust has its own menu
Yeah I'm in the trust menu, and the one at the bottom is the trial, the one above it is the 89
So I'm only able to run that with a trust when I run it during MSQ?
I dunno, it's appearing on my end
I didn't beat the after-trial, if that would make a difference?
Finish the story
Gotcha
yeah that's what I was suspecting
Many thanks
I've been playing the game for a few hours, I got to the point where I join a grand company and for some reason the game just isnt grabbing me. I dont know why, i feel like the game has too much content and I'm kinda choice paralyzed, what are some tips you could give me on how to enjoy the game better or how to tackle the content piece by piece
||i got the strats down for the first savage raid. one thing though. sometimes they want me (offtank) that i swap to take dmg down at the crystals. are swaps mandatory or are there strats without me taking dmg down as ot ?||
The only truly necessary content until level cap is the story and job quests
Yes there are multiple strats that don’t require anyone to take a damage down
What's the point of Eureka? Is it just for glam?
Stormblood relic
ok good because he told me that it has to be and it is the only way.
Ah ok. So glam lol
||i should swap at 2nd crystal phase before the last crystal cracks but i did this several times without swap and it worked, so i was confused||
@limber hound I'm trying to slog through the msq but none of it is really grabbing me, like I just skip most of the dialogue because I just have no attachment to any of these characters lol
Does it get any better?
An absolute fool told you that
Yes.
Early story is a bit of a drag, admittedly
But you're in the first 15% or so of it
maybe even 10%

ok 😄 . i am new so i trust everyone. i am not the type of player who says " iam right always". ok. tyvm!
Does anybody know where I could find a repo of all the area splash art in a decent resolution?
You either quit in ARR, or you sink far enough to make it to the end of EW 
There is a reason the game is free till HW 😛
it's like giving out heroine
Whether the swap is necessary depends on the layout
What I said is that the damage down is avoidable
Swapping is what accomplishes that
yeah swapping is needed
You have to react to the crystal layout.
Swapping is only needed on a certain configuration of crystals
Only the MT and one dps neighbouring them need to swap
In that case
Hello anyone know why i can't run the game ?
i start south and if top and bottom are same color i go north and then back south. i was OT.
i grabbed the fire, stayed in the middle and go back to south. this is what i usually do
Something broke with directx
Top and bottom can never be the same for set 2
oh. i thought i had 3 ice or so
Yours did
But top had fire for set two
So you would top for set 2
Then south again
with top you mean ... ?
North
yeah. i go north.
then wait in the middle.
then go back south
and he wanted me to swap for the last crystal (2nd crystal phase) always

If you're south and it's triple ice then you're south north south for titles
