You could probably just google Ishgard Restoration leveling guide

or 1-50 crafting leveling guide

[warm snow]

*gay bulge

There is a gay bulge ultima

But that's locked behind an ultimate

Admittedly the easiest one, still an ultimate

[gloomy berry]

Q: do i need to repeatedly buy the same folklore to uncover more nodes?

[warm snow]

No

It's a one time purchase

You do have to use the book tho

[gloomy berry]

per zone/job ye?

[warm snow]

Basically ye

[gloomy berry]

ok thank you kindly

[warm snow]

Just need to buy each book once

[leaden ginkgo]

how can i change mytime to 12 format instead of 24 ?

[warm snow]

Ui settings

On character config

[leaden ginkgo]

Thanks buddy

[warm snow]

That's where most ui stuff is

[faint flare]

Openers are the optimal way to start fights and they set up your rotation

[warm snow]

And anything on the balance is for level 90

And you're apparently on trial

Rotations and openers are different

[vagrant shell]

Anyone know how long the server maintenance will last before I can buy the full version of the game?

[warm snow]

Pretty much yeah

[warm snow]

There's no server maintenance and we don't know how long the sales freeze is

Cuz they literally can't get new hardware

[main yoke]

question about housing/decor...how many items can you store in your furniture storage?

[warm snow]

Depends on your house/apartment

[main yoke]

umm, apartment and FC room

[warm snow]

Same amount, I don't know the exact number

[main yoke]

okey tyty

and is the inventories separate?

[warm snow]

I don't think so

[main yoke]

oh that's even better \o/

thank you~

[warm snow]

Imo doesn't seem worth the effort to implement that

[uncut quarry]

How are the physical ranged dps different from the magical ranged ones?

[warm snow]

They don't have cast times

[uncut quarry]

ah that makes

ty

[leaden ginkgo]

where do i get accessories for btn/min at lvl 85

[warm snow]

Market board

Idk if they sell them but anything sold by vendors is garbage since its not hq

[leaden ginkgo]

oh

[craggy tinsel]

if you have aesthetes or landsaint gear you can work with that up to 90 without much issue

source: I did it

(as have many others)

[leaden ginkgo]

did i just waste all my money on nq gear then...

[warm snow]

Probably

[craggy tinsel]

F

[leaden ginkgo]

nice

[craggy tinsel]

it happens

[merry merlin]

To all of us at some point. You can get the white scrips for landsaint gear pretty easy by doing some ocean fishing

[leaden ginkgo]

fish i dont have

[craggy tinsel]

collectables it is then

[merry merlin]

Oceanfishing is a lvl 1 fisher unlock in limsa. Or lvl 5, pretty low anyway

[craggy tinsel]

which is convenient, because you can level up in the process too

[merry merlin]

And it needs no gear

[cursive ridge]

can you do firmament fetes on world visit servers? to that end, are the timers for them staggered?

[warm snow]

No

[cursive ridge]

thought i was megabraining

[viscid moth]

Is SAM even decently playable with a 3x actionbar layout? XD

[cursive ridge]

all classes only need 3 action bars

[forest sage]

well if it's Xbar, 3 is only 24 buttons

so a bunch of classes need more

if you mean normal 12buttons hotbars then every class fits in that

[warm snow]

Fuck if I know, I just play everything on controller

And only ast gives button bloat

[viscid moth]

no i mean 36, I'm only level 70 on SAM now and it's already so much 😄

[warm snow]

You can ditch your stun for the most point to make space

And 2 skills from eyes open were removed in ew

[forest sage]

I think SAM has like 32ish or so, haven't counted

[warm snow]

No

[viscid moth]

with or without class commands? together with a potion this starts to get tight haha

[forest sage]

well you can but the class who turns in the quest must meet the level requirements for the quest, and beast tribe will only work on classes that picked them

well let me go count them

[viscid moth]

I'd be no problem to somehow keybind a 4th bar but damn it would trigger my ocd to just do it for one job.

[forest sage]

33 counting everything +2 for sprint and pot so 35

[viscid moth]

nice

[cursive ridge]

you can delegate all-class actions like pots and sprints to a separate actionbar to one side

[craggy tinsel]

^ was about to type that

[cursive ridge]

limit break, etc

[forest sage]

I mean you still want them bound

[craggy tinsel]

Sprint, LB, Return/Teleport, any mounts you like to use, maybe your class swap hotbars, etc

[cursive ridge]

you can bind those no issue

[viscid moth]

Ye i should really do that, I'm only now getting into alt jobs.

[forest sage]

yeah well point was, sidebar or not they're bound, so there's no real reason to put them on a sidebar if you want to see their cds

some are actually useful to track(true north, feint, pot)

[warm snow]

Go into your settings and set up your shared hotbars

Or alts are gonna fuck with your setups

[craggy tinsel]

I use bars 1-3 for my job actions, 4 is empty, 5-9 are for class swap bars (5 = crafter/gatherer, 6 = tank, 7 = healer, 8 = melee DPS, 9 = ranged/caster DPS), and 10 is for shared stuff (the macros to reveal/hide class swap bars, teleport/return, sprint, LB, single-rider and multi-rider mounts, and wondrous tails book)

Arguably I could have just one keybind to reveal all job hotbars, rather than one each, and free up four spaces on hotbar 10 for other stuff, but I haven't quite found a use for those yet should I need it.

though in hindsight this is a discussion better for #protips-and-ui

[covert marlin]

why does it still show the icon?

[warm snow]

You ain't beaten him

Ever

[covert marlin]

oh

[warm snow]

If you beat him and he has cards you don't have it's a card with a star in it

If you beat him and he doesn't have cards you need, there's no icon

[covert marlin]

thank you!

[regal lintel]

is it normal for trusts to take so long to do?

specifically the shadowbringer ones

[cursive ridge]

they're not THAT longer

[craggy tinsel]

The AI doesn't really aoe

[cursive ridge]

shadowbringer dungeons just have more HP on bosses than the previous expansions

[craggy tinsel]

so trash pulls can take longer

[cursive ridge]

it's 15-20min with people and 30min with trusts

[regal lintel]

is there a way to get round getting the ai to clear giant pulls faster?

[cursive ridge]

no they will die

[craggy tinsel]

play DPS

so you can aoe lol

[cursive ridge]

you can pull a second pack on the tank

but the third pack is too much

[regal lintel]

yh 2 packs im able to somehow if thancred is tanking

3 seems like its too much for them

[cursive ridge]

at least he's much better at grabbing aggro from you than squadrons

[whole parcel]

can I not play final fantasy free trial anymore?

[cursive ridge]

if you had an account already, you can in the mornings

[whole parcel]

oh

alright

[cursive ridge]

cant make a new account due to server congestions

[craggy tinsel]

if servers are super full it won't let you on as a free trial account

[whole parcel]

ok

[craggy tinsel]

^ and can't buy the game due to server congestion

[languid kestrel]

if someone takes a damage down during intemp, does the whole party get damage down?

[stark galleon]

Hey i have a pretty specific question, maybe someone can help. So im farming ex primals atm and wanted to maximize the spiritbond on my gear for materia extraction. So I pentamelded the new 580 ilvl gear bcs I read it boost the speed of spiritbonding. Now after a couple runs, I get around 8% per run. I used to get 9% with my regular, unmelded 570 blue gear. So now I'm confused how it is even less then regular, fully pentamelded ×_× any one know why that is? The gear is new, started from 0% spiritbond. The other gear got to 100% a couple times. Dont know if that matters. Thx in advance o/

[cursive ridge]

ilvl of gear vs. ilvl of content matters

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

here's the graph

[fresh lodge]

Did you make the free trial account through Steam or Mogstation?

[whole parcel]

how do I use the trial launcher then?

[fresh lodge]

You can't

Since making new free trial accounts have been disabled, they took down the download of the client

[whole parcel]

but I already have an account

I used to play on it

it was free trial tho

[leaden granite]

do scions make babies? or how are they "born" ?

[fresh lodge]

Did you have the client downloaded before the free trial was disabled?

[robust notch]

When mommy Scion loves daddy Scion very much, they make a baby.

[whole parcel]

yes

[leaden granite]

UwU

[fresh lodge]

[twilit arch]

The scions are a group of people....

they're no different from any other person, in that they are born

and then joined the scions as adults

not sure why this a question

[blissful tinsel]

Can you only apply glamour plates in main cities or just sanctuaries?

[robust notch]

So you're saying a pregnant Y'shtola is a possibility.

[silent pike]

This is a great time to drop the topic I think

[fresh lodge]

Why are people being weird

[craggy tinsel]

[twilit arch]

main cities, and sanctuaries like housing districts/wolves den

[robust notch]

I agree, let's bring it to #general-discussion :^)

[silent pike]

Let’s bring it nowhere

[open rivet]

what was the marker command for kupobot again?
the one where it posts the quickguide for all the weird markers the game has?

[blissful tinsel]

Alright, ty

[twilit arch]

its just !faq marker

[fathom finch]

what tinture of mind should a healer use for more DPS?

i mean not necessarily a tinture of mind but in general

[craggy tinsel]

it affects your damage as a healer, since that's your primary healer stat

[fathom finch]

kk they're pretty cheap so i was wondering if anything changed

[craggy tinsel]

so a tincture of mind would probably be your highest damage output as a healer

nah, they wouldn't change it

[faint flare]

Just the highest grade available

[iron rock]

dps lb isn't affected by weakness nor damage downs right?

[faint flare]

No

No player buffs or debuffs affect lb

[keen marten]

So im trying for the first time a new class for me, and im in the target dummies, how do i leave combat with them? do i need to run away rly far from them? or is there another way?

[faint flare]

Right click

Their HP bar

And reset enmity

[keen marten]

Aaah ok ty

[mystic shale]

Yo, check out 3rd party launcher. It's possible to use free trial acc using this tool.

[reef quiver]

So how do you put a class job symbol onto the macro?

[fleet steppe]

/micon gearset <gearset number of the icon you want to use>

[tulip chasm]

third time asking this question, but i still gotta have hope

does anyone know how to save the shared macros list across pcs? when i uploaded mine to back up it didn't seem to save that when i redownloaded it on another laptop

[reef quiver]

So

Like that?

[fleet steppe]

I dont think it works like that

[tulip chasm]

add micon to the very first line

also it works pretty fine if all you need is the icon

[twilit arch]

micon does not need to be first line

needs a space between micon and reaper

[warm snow]

You can put wait and snap on the same line

But that's just me being a clean code freak

[mellow valley]

hey guys i'm a new player, my girl got me into this game and i've been really wanting to get dark knight. after playing for about 4 days, i'm lvl 51 and currently on the main quest "still waters". does anyone know when i can be able to get dark knight?

[fresh lodge]

When you can enter Ishgard

[warm snow]

When you get into the first expansion

!faq hwjobs

[zinc orbit]

Heavensward Jobs and How to Unlock Them

Heavensward Expansion Jobs: Dark Knight (DRK, Tank), Astrologian (AST, Healer), and Machinist (MCH, Ranged DPS). These jobs start at level 30 and require the completion of the level 50 main scenario quest "Before the Dawn".
Since the 5.3 update DRK, AST, and MCH are now included in the free trial/Starter edition of the game, though the unlock requirements are still the same.

Job Unlock Locations:
Dark Knight - Ishgardian Citizen at The Pillars (13,9), quest name is "Our End".
Astrologian - Jannequinard at The Pillars (15,10), quest name is "Stairway to the Heavens".
Machinist - Stephanivien at Foundation (8,10), quest name is "Savior of Skysteel".

[mellow valley]

i see

i just beat gaius a couple of quests ago

and i just helped minfilia move into mor dhana

[warm snow]

You're in early 2.1

Need to finish 2.55 to be done with arr

You're unfortunately in arguably the worst part of the game

[mellow valley]

do u know how many quests we're talkin?

[modest igloo]

80

[warm snow]

But you're gettingn closer

[modest igloo]

ish

[warm snow]

75

Ish

[mellow valley]

damnn

[modest igloo]

adding CT raids

[warm snow]

Ah yes

[mellow valley]

i grinded like 6-7 hours yesterday and got the gaius part done

im a long way away it seems :(

[warm snow]

There's no more dungeons with mandatory cutscenes ever 20s

Don't worry

[mellow valley]

thank god

that took me a solid hour

[modest igloo]

i remember doing it every day

was fun

[mellow valley]

i liked gaius though

ngl i kinda wanted to join him

but that isn't an option :(

[warm snow]

If you want to progress faster, avoid doing msq roulette as part of your dailies

[mellow valley]

whats msq roulette?

[fiery sail]

Besides level 70/80 equipment, what should I spend on Allan Tomestone of Poetics?

Thanks xD

[cursive ridge]

i'm guessing it's this file, since there's macro.dat in every individual character folder

[tulip chasm]

yeah, my friend told me that too just now, i'll try that tomorrow

thanks!

[fresh lodge]

Did you upload both character and system settings?

[tulip chasm]

yep!

oh wait,

only character settings

[fresh lodge]

Thats probably why

[tulip chasm]

macrosys.dat is part of system then i assume

oof

[cursive ridge]

well it has 'macro' in its file name and it's outside character-specific folders

and it's a pretty chunky file, so it has to be that

[tulip chasm]

so thats what they meant by shared macros lmao

i just used it cause i didnt wanna clog my stuff

awesome!

[warm snow]

Shared macros are shared between all characters on your account

[warm snow]

Because its high end content

[rugged thicket]

wheres the loot table for panda raids

[hazy aspen]

I received a timeworn khumbiraskin treasure map from wonderous tails today. What is this for and how do I use it

[twilit arch]

!faq normalloot

[zinc orbit]

Pandaemonium Normal Raid Loot Table

Tokens can be exchanged for equipment with Djole in Radz-at-Han at x10.3, y9.7, or with Mylenie in Labyrinthos at x8.4, y27.6.
Accessories need one token, Head/Arms/Feet need two tokens, and Chest/Legs need four tokens

Image URL: https://i.imgur.com/pkLRUiF.png

[rugged thicket]

thnks

[limber hound]

open the bottle, get a map

Arrange 8 people to do the map stuff with

[hazy aspen]

It's level 90 so is it level 90 content too?

[limber hound]

Sort of

[modest igloo]

it is lvl 90 content but you can go in lower than lvl 90

[hazy aspen]

Like, do I need to put up a PF for people that know the mechanics and stuff

[modest igloo]

oh no

its rng

[limber hound]

There's hardly any mechanics outside of "no stand in bad"

[modest igloo]

no big mehcanics

[limber hound]

But you do need PF to actually get enough doods to beat down the treasure dungeon mobs

[hazy aspen]

So it's like a dungeon boss

Oh ok, just a bunch of mobs

[limber hound]

pretty much

[hazy aspen]

So it looks like it sells for 50k, is it worth it to do this

[limber hound]

Rewards are mostly crafting mats, but occasionally a mat for a glam-only item will drop

[hazy aspen]

If I don't craft is it worth it

[boreal storm]

People want their pixie wings, free money

[limber hound]

well, you can still sell the mat and wingthings

And the crafting mats too

It goes for that much because every map is another shot at striking big

[hazy aspen]

Ok wait so I'm assuming the mats can sell for big dollars too

[edgy steeple]

My wife really wants to be able to play with me, and she can currently on our free trial but we want to upgrade her account so she can do more features, even if we found a CD key somewhere, can we register it or is that locked too

[limber hound]

Regular mats, not so much

[hazy aspen]

And since it's a full party I need to win rolls for the goods right?

[limber hound]

Only on rare mats when they spawn

[boreal storm]

You can’t find CD keys

[true wren]

I'm trying to change the ifrif summon back to ifrif. That possible? Or is that above level 80 now?

[limber hound]

Everyone gets their share of regular mats

[warm snow]

Yes but anyone selling a CD key atm is incredibly suspect as all licensed resellers have stopped sales

[hazy aspen]

And somebody said pixie wings, that's some glam stuff I assume

[edgy steeple]

Oh i figured like g2a would have some

[warm snow]

G2a is shit

[edgy steeple]

theyre usually legit

oh really

[warm snow]

And discussion of it is banned here

[faint flare]

They're not legit

They're a reseller

[twilit arch]

g2a is not an authorized third party seller

so you're putting yourself at risk buying from them

[true wren]

Wait, can you at least buy the expansion? Or is it just the base game that you can't buy/upgrade from?

[boreal storm]

You will get banned

[twilit arch]

you can still buy endwalker

[warm snow]

You can buy dlc still

[solemn knoll]

Does anyone wants to farm Castrum Meridianum or The preartorium or both just dm me if so i cant find a group take almost a hour sometimes lol

[true wren]

Okay. Good lol

[limber hound]

If you know the umbrella, then I can tell you they're the same thing

if not, well

[twilit arch]

its just starter edition/complete that is currently paused for sale

[limber hound]

It's glam stuff, and that's pretty much it

[warm snow]

Not that kind of questions and help chat, and NO ONE wants to farm those

They do the roulette for the bonus, that's it

[hazy aspen]

Ok so treasure maps are for crafting materials and pixie wings

[boreal storm]

Among other things yes

[hazy aspen]

And if I don't have a desire for pixie glam I am selling mats hopefully

Assuming I win some rolls

[icy thicket]

quick question

[hazy aspen]

It kinda sounds like I want to just sell the map itself

[icy thicket]

how do the second chance points work for wondrous tails

[hazy aspen]

I'm not big on being a pixie. Does this drop mounts or non-pixie glam

[limber hound]

!iglam coat of happiness

[zinc orbit]

Error!

Item not found, Kupo!

[boreal storm]

You get 1 by doing a duty with a first timer

[solemn knoll]

ok

[limber hound]

wrong one

[hazy aspen]

Or something expensive at least

[icy thicket]

do they carry over week to week?

[hazy aspen]

Well, something expensive I might be able to actually get

[boreal storm]

They don’t go unless you spend them

[twilit patrol]

how do i add some in friend list if he is from different server? for example he is ragnarok and i am moogle

[icy thicket]

thank you!

[twilit patrol]

when i try to press add friend it says name doesnt exist

[limber hound]

I have never known maps to drop mounts

Mats to make a mount, yes, but not a mount directly

[warm snow]

They drop materials to make the bed mount

[limber hound]

yes that's what I said afterward

[warm snow]

Have to visit his server

And you can't friend people on different data centers

[twilit patrol]

ah got it

[warm snow]

At least not now

[fallen summit]

How do the rewards for Fashion Report work

[twilit patrol]

thank you

[warm snow]

Judgement opens 9am ST on friday

If you get enough points you get mgp

[fallen summit]

Thank you

[warm snow]

Themes are revealed at weekly reset on tuesday

80 points for max reward, 100 points for a one time achievement

Is Jonathas the only achievement vendor?

Yes

[hidden cypress]

if you want the guide for every fashion report, https://www.reddit.com/user/kaiyoko/ this account posts them every week

[unborn light]

Thank you - they really need to give him more items..!

or have another one..

[warm snow]

They won't, not any time soob

You can get achievement rewards straight from the achievements ui now anyways

[unborn light]

Like items..?

[hazy aspen]

Ok, I might just use the map to see what it's like, 50k isn't really that much and I don't craft/gather so I'll probably never get another one

Thanks everyone who helped! I appreciate it

[fallen summit]

Thank you. I wanted to do it for fun and get stuff

[near finch]

How do i get Demimateria of the inferno

[warm snow]

Desynth ifrit weps

[near finch]

Do i need any desynth lvl or is it fine at 70

[reef quiver]

What does macros come under when your upload and download settings? Character or client?

[warm snow]

No, but you'll get more from desynthing

[boreal storm]

You have a better chance if your desynth is above the shown number

[near finch]

ah okay i've desynthed like 30 rapiers but didnt get any but ill keep trying 👍

[fathom finch]

how is it possible to have full 580 tomegear already has the new tomes been out for more than a week?

[warm snow]

Rng is rng

[leaden ginkgo]

what is the most profitiable thing to buy from firamont and sell on mb these days

[warm snow]

There is no 580 tome gear

[neon urchin]

is the new player help channel removed ?

[warm snow]

Depends on your server

[warm snow]

#beginner-lounge

[leaden ginkgo]

famfrit

[neon urchin]

oh i am dumb sorry lol

[warm snow]

That doesn't mean I know what's selling best on every server in the game

You're gonna have to do some research yourself

[true jolt]

We only have 570 and 590 tome gear

And afaik no one can bought 590 since cheapest gear even cost more than weekly cap (except pld shield)

[leaden ginkgo]

damn

thought u were an expert

[warm snow]

Difference between being knowledgeable and knowing all that innane shit

Not worth my time

[leaden ginkgo]

lol

i mean i would be impressed if someone did know that

[true jolt]

Just my 2 cents, but if someone gonna share "whats best to sell" in public forum, expect price to crash cause everyone want to make money by selling "best to sell" item

[fathom finch]

sry i meant i see people with full 580 raid gear

[warm snow]

No you can't have a full set of that yet

[boreal storm]

It’s not possible to do that

It’s only week 3

[true jolt]

Hmm, i dont think its possible yet

You going to miss 1 left side gear if you commit to left side only since week 1

[fathom finch]

i just dont know why these party finders are asking for 580 gear when its still so early

[warm snow]

Technically impossible forever since only one ring

[warm snow]

Crafted gear is 580

[boreal storm]

EX gear is 580

[fathom finch]

cost millions if you dont have a full leveled crafters

[warm snow]

Imagine not having fully leveled crafters

[true jolt]

Fun fact: atm its less than 2 mil for full set in my server lol

[warm snow]

Anyways that market crashed on like Friday anyways

[fathom finch]

is that the enhanced armor?

[true jolt]

Enhanced?

[fathom finch]

upgraded

[boreal storm]

Pretty sure that’s not a thing yet

[hot eagle]

cant augment crafted gear to 590 yet

[true jolt]

Crafted gear cant be upgrsded till 6.1

[warm snow]

And augmented crafted gear is unsellable

[fathom finch]

Ornate version

[warm snow]

Lol ornate

Are you high!?

That shits for worlds first progression

[twilit arch]

no

[true jolt]

Who buy ornate unless you race to world first? :')

[warm snow]

Basically

[twilit arch]

ornate isn't even for world first

[fathom finch]

lol wow so much terminology to have to get correct

[warm snow]

But that's for the uber deep pockets folk

[twilit arch]

Ornate is for the people who either get lucky with 3 lines in wondrous tails, or are rich af

[warm snow]

Ornate is just the normal chest piece with 5 materia slots

You get like an extra 50 points of stats compared to a pentamelded normal chest piece

[blissful relic]

levelling THM, shoukd I bother keeping fire/ice/thunder 1 in my hotbar?

[fathom finch]

yea i mean classical isn't good for these savage raids cause of low defense imo

[twilit arch]

it is

[warm snow]

Classical is bis

[fresh lodge]

Well

[cursive ridge]

!faq blmleveling

[fresh lodge]

Its not Bis

[warm snow]

Unless you've cleared savage

[zinc orbit]

THM/BLM Leveling Rotations

[twilit arch]

if you're week 1 raider, you're going for pentamelded crafted

because of the extra sub stats

[blissful relic]

this is incomprehensible to me

[cursive ridge]

T= thunder, F= fire, B=Blizzard

[fresh lodge]

But it'll be some of the best gear alongside the normal raid gear that you can take into Savage rn

[warm snow]

For all intents and purposes classical is the best gear for anyone not doing savage raids

[fresh lodge]

And the EX gear

[fathom finch]

okay so i should buy 580 crafted gear

[warm snow]

That and the defence stat is basically meaningless

[fresh lodge]

The new tome gear is better than Classical

[true jolt]

Do you plan to do savage or not?

[fathom finch]

yes im doing P2S

[fresh lodge]

You also don't only need the crafted gear

The gear from the normal raid is just as good for most purposes

[true jolt]

Aight, worth to buy, but keep in mind normal raid gear is same ilvl just weekly gated

And ex weap-acc also same ilvl

[fathom finch]

yes i mean compared to 570 tome gear the crafted is better im hearing

[fresh lodge]

It is a higher ilvl after all

[warm snow]

Well yeah, that's what an extra 10 item levels does

[true jolt]

Yeah, higher ilvl is 99% better

Thst 1% is.. idk i heard about 5.4 healer ring BiS kek

[fathom finch]

okay the low defense discouraged me

[warm snow]

Compared to what?

[fresh lodge]

It has a higher defense though

[true jolt]

How you got lower defense @_@

[fresh lodge]

Unless you're looking at the NQ one

In which case don't buy it

[warm snow]

Unless you're looking at tank gear or nq armor

[fresh lodge]

Only buy HQ crafted gear

[cursive ridge]

NQ crafted gear is a failed craft

[fathom finch]

yes im looking at normal quality

[warm snow]

Don't

[true jolt]

Dont buy normal

[warm snow]

Nq is crap

[true jolt]

Its trash

Crafted gear is HQ or bust

[cursive ridge]

they really should rename NQ to poor quality and make HQ normal

[warm snow]

Nq gear stats are below their actual item level

[fathom finch]

okay i was looking at wrong versions it is higher i see

[warm snow]

That doesn't work for all the stuff that doesn't have hq versions

[true jolt]

I mean... Outside crafted gear HQ mats is well.. "HQ" XD

[fathom finch]

huff time to go melding again i guess lol

[warm snow]

Laughs in pentamelding

[gaunt fable]

huh...

[forest sphinx]

How would I go about setting skills to Mouse 4 and 5?

[viscid fossil]

I set those for mount and run

[cursive ridge]

if the game doesnt recognize it natively, bind it to a keyboard key in your mouse driver/mouse remapping software

[urban grotto]

so I have to do 5 Unique Command Missions to attain the rank of captain in my GC?

[warm snow]

Yes

[viscid fossil]

Mouse 4 and 5 is universal today.

[humble epoch]

best way to get Blue Crafters' Scrip Token?

[forest sage]

yeah M4 and M5 are recognized directly at least for me, additional buttons you have to do the key stuff

[boreal storm]

Get white scrips from collectibles then buy the tokens

[humble epoch]

like firmament?

[warm snow]

Firmament doesn't give white scrips

[mellow valley]

do u guys think it's a good idea to buy the dark knight thing on the store?

im like 80 quests away and i cba

[warm snow]

Imo no

[humble epoch]

So where do i get the white scripts?

[warm snow]

But thats up to each individual

[humble epoch]

got my crafters in 60+

[mellow valley]

does it require me to already be in ishgard

when i buy it?

[warm snow]

Custom deliveries and collectables

[mellow valley]

cause rn im in mor dhana

[warm snow]

No

[mellow valley]

sheesh

[warm snow]

It comes in your mail

[mellow valley]

guess i gotta buy it screw it

[boreal storm]

Do not

[mellow valley]

why not

[warm snow]

It's gonna drop you at 80

And skip all the job quests

[mellow valley]

sounds fine to me

never particularly liked doin the job quests anyways

[boreal storm]

You don’t know the DRK quests then

They are peak

[warm snow]

Idk how it works if you lack dlc

[mellow valley]

i have the dlc that u need

[boreal storm]

You’re just stuck at 80

[urban grotto]

is there a way to input coordinates into my text box to place a flag?

cause doing it manually is a pain in my seals

[kind burrow]

Do successful frontline roulettes give more EXP?

[forest sage]

I think they do a little bit? but not the chunk of the xp

[twilit arch]

how much exp you get from the frontline itself depends on win/loss

but the roulette itself's exp is not affected by win/loss

[warm snow]

No

[warm snow]

Roulette itself no, you just get more exp in front lines itself for winning

[gray crescent]

So in p2s kampeos harma,. is it possible dps can get the triangle mark? cause im always got the blue mark. like always

[warm snow]

No

It's completely random

[heavy wadi]

yes they do, if you win you may very well get a level of exp vs half a level from just the roulette

[gray crescent]

so i got random blue mark all the time wow

[warm snow]

Yes that's what being random means

You can roll a dice 5 times and get all 6s

[gray crescent]

i see isee. thanks im sure now

[shrewd kiln]

what's the use of the premium companion app?

[heavy wadi]

the premium gives you an extra chocobo saddlebag and a retainer

[shrewd kiln]

thanks

also are there any recolors of the pince-nez available out there? Garland tools lists many different spectacles in its shared models tab

[bitter zinc]

Are savage stuff different like hard dungeons?

[zinc bramble]

Different mechanics and possibly additional phases

[robust notch]

Savage Raids are Normal Raids that have added mechanics that require a lot of coordination from every party member. They usually include difficult dps checks and enrages if you take too long. (Enrage instakills everyone)

Current tier Savage raids also give the Best in Slot gear that's currently available.

[bitter zinc]

:monkaS:

[warm snow]

More like extreme trials differences

But WAAAY HARDER

[robust notch]

A good way to see it is that if you fail a mechanic in a Normal Raid, you usually just take a bit of damage, or maybe you'll die. If you fail a mechanic in a Savage Raid, you can kill your entire party. So yeah, lot of coordination required.

[warm snow]

Savage raids are actually designed first

And normal raids are savage raids dumbed down, sometimes with extra story bits

[bitter zinc]

Sounds fun

[warm snow]

They are

But they will beat you senseless

[round arch]

if a migitation says reducing dmg, does that include magical damage too or only physical dmg ?

[warm snow]

Yes

Unless it says otherwise

[round arch]

and if a, for example sword with fire hits me, can i use magic migi too ?

[warm snow]

Depends on the attack

Auto attacks are physical

[boreal storm]

If it’s a cast, that’s magic

[round arch]

what is the strongest combination to migi a tb with drk ? shadowwall + tbn ?

[warm snow]

Your invuln

[warm snow]

Not necessarily

[boreal storm]

I mean like the damage text

[shrewd kiln]

what's the point of squadron command missions? can i use them to level?

[warm snow]

Yes

Also achievements and ranking up

[shrewd kiln]

how far do I need to go with squadrons to get promoted to captain

[boreal storm]

5 unique dungeons, lvl 50

[jovial quarry]

For captain rank, your squadron needs to pass both priority deployments and then you need to take them through 5 unique dungeons.

[wheat plume]

is there lvl 90 gear crafteable for DoH ?

[zinc bramble]

Sure is

[wheat plume]

i just lvled up goldsmith up to 90 and used master book hoping to find any lvl 90 accesories for them, but there isn't.
Which lvl 90 crafter can craft something for lvl 90 crafters?

[warm snow]

Yeah the shit in your crafting log

No master shit yet

[wheat plume]

the crafter gear for crafters with melded materia can have better stats than script lvl 90 gear?

[warm snow]

Yes

[shrewd kiln]

is there a list of all potential squadron recruits somewhere?

[wheat plume]

Which crafter can craft lvl 81-90 accesories for crafters? (goldsmith can't)

[raw moss]

Am I doing something wrong or is ruby carbuncle supposed to disappear after like 3 seconds and turn back into blue

I’m still confused by the arcanist changes to that mechanic

[warm snow]

Yes

[fresh lodge]

CRP

[jovial quarry]

That's how they work now. The blue one is the base state. When you activate the ruby gem, ruby carby appears. When you activate topaz gem, topaz carby appears. As you get to SMN stuff, the carbies are replaced by egis.

[shrewd kiln]

or rather, do I need to grind challenge log in a certain category to be able to get the relevant recruits?

[boreal storm]

Yes

[wheat plume]

nice, u know if crp crafts all accesories for crafters , or only part and other job more?

[raw moss]

So they appear for like one attack then go away?

[jovial quarry]

More or less, yeah.

[warm snow]

You do an elemental summon, they attack and then you can do some elemental aspected attacks

[raw moss]

Gotcha, I was just confused for a bit there

[boreal storm]

Just look up “Ff14 squadron recruits”

[fresh lodge]

Uhhh, I know they craft the 90 ones, not sure about the rest

[shrewd kiln]

I'm checking consolegameswiki and still a bit unclear as to when exactly new recruits appear... I'm a bit starved for dps at this point

[boreal storm]

The class doesn’t matter

[jovial quarry]

They're completely random as you complete challenges

[wheat plume]

yeah yeah, i wanted to know if crp crafts the 4 crafters accesories or only 2-3 and another job craft the rest

[boreal storm]

You can change them really easily

[fresh lodge]

I'd assume they'd all be CRP

[wheat plume]

thxs

[shrewd kiln]

you need to be a first flame lieutenant to buy the item from the quartermaster, I'm not there yet

[dire prawn]

What's the requirements for unlocking Endwalker hunts

[warm snow]

Unlocking all the other hunts

And level 90

[craggy tinsel]

CRP does all crafter accessories, LTW does all gatherer accessories

[wheat plume]

that's very good info, biggest thanks for you

[craggy tinsel]

WVR for head, body and legs for both, LTW for hands and feet for both; tools are primarily BSM but have a few in CRP (secondary for GSM and WVR, as well as FSH primary), GSM has just WVR primary, I believe ARM has CUL and ALC primary...

[open coral]

Anyone know what food healers are using right now? I can't seem to find the recommendations on the Balance.

[craggy tinsel]

Am I missing anything? I don't think I am

But hopefully that is some use to you @wheat plume

[dire prawn]

Can't go wrong with crit and det

[open coral]

That doesn't answer the question, Tsuya

I need to know what it's called, not what the stats are.

[craggy tinsel]

I've seen a member of my static request sykon compote but I think that has piety for comfort

[warm snow]

If you have the energy to be that way why not look it up yourself

[open coral]

I tried looking it up

I couldn't find an answer

That's why I asked here.

[twilit arch]

pumpkin potage

is det/crit

[open coral]

Thanks Kael

[umbral jacinth]

If someone has an old Trial account but never upgraded to full game, can they now despite the new game sales being shuttered? I followed it through on an old trial account and it seems like it can be done, but not sure. (Didn't get to paying.)

[open coral]

No

[craggy tinsel]

Can't buy the base game currently no

[open coral]

If you don't already have the paid base game, you can't buy the paid base game.

[umbral jacinth]

ok

[mellow valley]

yo guys how long does mail usually take to get in?

bought something from the shop like 50 or so minutes ago and nothing has come through yet

[warm snow]

You were told to allow up to 10 working days

And servers are currently getting fucked

But a day at the most is what's expected

[lost harness]

Is it worth it to use Astronomy Tomestones on accessories or should I save them up for left side gearpieces?

[mellow valley]

ohhh okay cool, ty kat

[leaden ginkgo]

Which ARR/HW dungeon or somethin else is the best for tomestone farm?

[robust notch]

Aetherochemical Research Facility for Poetics, I think

I just get Poetics from roulettes though, MSQ roulette gives 500-600

[leaden ginkgo]

Yea i did it but it's only once a day

[robust notch]

Aetherochemical Research Facility gives you 150 per run, 250 if you're with a person doing it for the first time

[boreal storm]

That’s a fourth of your max

That’s well enough for something done once a day

[robust notch]

Or you could just farm some Normal Raid in the hopes of ending up in a party with new people

Got plenty of Poetics when farming Normal Raids for the ShB Relic weapon

[robust notch]

Are you planning on doing Savage?

[lost harness]

Yes

[robust notch]

Then have a look on The Balance for the BiS set for your main class

It'll tell you which pieces you need the Astronomy set of, and which pieces you'll need from the raids

No point buying the tomestone chest piece if the BiS set requires the raid chest piece

[lost harness]

Alright, ty! ^^

[robust notch]

Might be a good idea to have at least 500 Astronomy Tomestones ready for when you have 7 swords from P4N

[kind burrow]

Can you hide certain hotbars when weapon is drawn?

[robust notch]

A few more weeks to go until then, but it'll give you the 590 iLvl weapon which is gonna be a good boost if you don't have the raid weapon by then

[green grail]

it's for the controller hotbars

[kind burrow]

Oh T-T I thought I just solved my greatest problem X)

[muted shore]

Hey, gang! What’s a good way to make gil? I’ve tried leveling a crafter but it’s hurting my pockets more than it’s helping.

[kind burrow]

Is there any way though with which I can have my hotbars automatically change in and out of combat?

[paper raptor]

Is it possible to make armory chest bigger? Not bigger as in more slots, but bigger on the screen.

[quick sage]

Hey guys

What’s the settings for when I extract I see the materia on chat log?

[gritty lynx]

Does Sage's Haima/Panhaima stack with Eukrasian Diagnosis/Prognosis?

[green grail]

yes

[dire prawn]

Question

I just became a 2LT for my GC and unlocked Squadrons

How do I go about unlocking ARR hunts

[open coral]

Should be a in your GC called "Let the Hunt Begin"

[gritty oracle]

So I read that if there's a walled-off half zone (say, the lv78 part of Kholusia) and someone tried to ferry you there with a multiseater, you would hit an invisible wall. Is it true?

[quick sage]

Is there a setting where I can see what type of materia I extracted?

Cause when I extract it doesn’t show

[open coral]

It should say in the chat log

[quick sage]

It doesn’t for me

I must have turned it off or something

[dire prawn]

New question time

[quick sage]

How do I check

[open coral]

Do you maybe have those messages in a different tab?

[dire prawn]

It appears I'm stupid and unlocked ARR hunts god knows how long ago

Are there any requirements for HW hunts?

[quick sage]

Nope

I don’t

I think I turned it off when I was crafting or something

[open coral]

Just that you've unlocked the ARR ones.

[forest sage]

gathering system messages or own gathering messages should be it, something like that

and yeah it's spammy when you craft

[quick sage]

Which tab is that

[forest sage]

I have it on another chat

well any chat you turn it on

[dire prawn]

Is the hunt unlock for HW in Ishgard?

[forest sage]

just click the wheel to check chat options and turn on/off the stuff you want

[quick sage]

Yea but where do I check which chat I turned for on

[forest sage]

log filters at the bottom

[quick sage]

Character config?

[open coral]

For rank 1, 2, and 3, yes. S rank is in Idyllshire

[forest sage]

the wheel under the chat

or yeah char config > log window

[quick sage]

I see just gotta find the materia option

[forest sage]

actually should be own synthesis messages

[quick sage]

Own synthesis messages?

[forest sage]

since I don't have that one on general

[dire prawn]

I can't find it

Or actually it's just not here

[open coral]

Should be at the Forgotten Knight

[dry pelican]

can i get materia like might via SB from healer gear?

[boreal storm]

You don’t unlock s ranks tho?

[open coral]

Weekly hunt, whatever.

The rank 4

[dire prawn]

There's no quests here

[open coral]

Check Idyllshire

[forest sage]

crit/det you can but not dhit I think

[open coral]

Then go to Rhalgar's and check for SB

[dire prawn]

I can't access the board though

So why would I go to Rhalgr's

Allied/Clan Hunting Unlock Guide

'How do I unlock Hunts?'

ARR Hunts: Be 2nd Lieutenant in your Grand Company and complete the quest 'Let the Hunt Begin' located at your Grand Company. You can promote to 2nd Lieutenant by talking to the Personnel Officer and buying promotions for seals and by completing the GC Hunting Log and the quests 'Shadows Uncast' and 'Gilding the Bilious'. This must be done to unlock HW Hunts.

HW Hunts: Go to Ishgard - Foundation at x13, y11.9 and complete the quest 'Let the Clan Hunt Begin' from Aytienne. Followup quests are 'Better Bill Hunting' from Eustacia, 'Top Marks' from Yloise in Idyllshire, and 'Elite and Dangerous' from Ardolain. This must be done to unlock SB/SHB Hunts.

SB Hunts: Go to Kugane at x10.4, y10.3 and complete all quests with 'Veteran Clan Hunt' from Estrild.

SHB Hunts: Go to The Crystarium at x12.2, 15.1 and complete the quest 'Nuts to You' from the Hume Lout. Afterwards complete all quests from Halldor at x9.5, y9.4.

[forest sage]

they have to be done in order

[dire prawn]

from Aytienne
He has a whole lot of nothing

[nova sphinx]

Are there any easy ways to tell which NPC I haven't played against in TT?

[tropic frigate]

Is the next patch expected to be released in April?

[forest sage]

around that yeah but no actual date yet

[robust notch]

Any NPC that you either haven't won against or haven't gotten all cards from will have the card icon above them.

[nova sphinx]

I have 105/108 marked off on https://triad.raelys.com/npcs, but my achievement shows 104/107 for Triple Decker. So I clearly marked one incorrectly. I know three are beast tribes, but I have no idea who else I missed since I've gotten all the cards (but some from Moogle events, so I may have not ever played against one).

[robust notch]

I have 107/107 for the achievement, last two I needed were the Eureka NPCs

Should be a tracker somewhere that shows where all the NPCs are

I used arrtripletriad.com or whatever the site is called

[humble epoch]

Is there a way to get blue crafters scripts for white?

[nova sphinx]

I think a lot of those require manually tracking.

[robust notch]

Yes, that's kinda the point

Just go through them, one NPC at a time

I teleported everywhere to check I hadn't missed an NPC

Just look for the icon on your map

[shrewd kiln]

Do the different battle tactics for squadrons have different AI behavior alongside the stat increases?

[boreal storm]

No, pretty sure they don’t

[robust notch]

There's an interior in Kugane for example that has an NPC you can face, gotta find them yourself ^^

[nova sphinx]

I missed one though D: of 104

[robust notch]

https://arrtripletriad.com/en/npcs Just tick them off one at a time.

[forest sage]

you can't get blue crafter scrips anymore, they've been removed like 4years ago, if you mean blue crafter scrip tokens for anima, you can buy them for 25 white scrips(lvl 60 misc), make sure you do the scrip unlock quest in idylshire

[humble epoch]

I just bought them?

[forest sage]

you bought tokens as I just said

Or can you still do that?

[twilit arch]

you can still do it, tis intended

[vestal stone]

is the level 40-49 gear you can buy from the vendors the highest you can get?

[late meadow]

so just bought a ps4 copy in addition to the pc. my ps4 account is linked but when i start the game it says "FINAL FANTASY XIV has not yet been registered with this service account or your subscription has expired." does any one know how to fixthat?

[leaden ginkgo]

why materia VIII has more numbers than IX

also whats better compare the two

[hot eagle]

you probably did buy endwalker only since you can't buy the starter/complete edition atm and owning dlc alone is useless

you need to compare viii with x, vii and ix are mostly for overmelds

[leaden ginkgo]

what should i put ?

for combat

Ix has 12 dh
viii has 24 dh

[late meadow]

i did buy endwalker only. is that the problem?

[boreal storm]

One is for overmelding

That why stat lower

[hot eagle]

yes can't use dlc without the base game

[leaden ginkgo]

so using viii is my choice ?

[hot eagle]

if you don't have X yeah

[leaden ginkgo]

Ty

[boreal storm]

It’s honestly a better choice, because you can just retrieve it no RNG involved

[prime plover]

How do I enhance Empyrean Aetherpool Gear for HoH? Is there an item I'm supposed to use in HoH?

[pure copper]

do yall think it's worth buying those GC aetheryte tickets with seals to free up a favorite/free bind spot?

[hot eagle]

about the same as in potd open the silver chests or clear floor 21-30 which upgrades armor/weapon 1/1 for killing the boss but best is probably spamming 21-30 and open an silver chests you come by

[prime plover]

Literally just opening them? Okay lol ty

[pure copper]

if it's like Potd, it's not guaranteed to upgrade on a chest

an ability used by a boss that deals a lot of damage

typically only suvivable by a tank (by using mitigation)

[tight plinth]

Hello, just a simple question, flank and rear is behind and front?

[tidal osprey]

flank is side

rear is behind look at circle should be a gap

[keen marten]

Oh ok xd ty

[remote lintel]

you cant buy the base game atm

[boreal storm]

Melee dps never want to be in front of the enemy, unless they absolutely have to be

[mellow mountain]

is this the right place to ask the name of a mount?

[remote lintel]

sure

[mellow mountain]

OK

What is the tank called

[ripe hound]

Oh cool, didn't know Teamcraft also have this feature

[remote lintel]

oh idk the name of it but its from the dwarf beast tribe in shb

[boreal storm]

Dwarf tribe mount

[mellow mountain]

shb

[boreal storm]

Hope you like crafting

[mellow mountain]

yes

i like waste money on the the resources

[jovial quarry]

The actual name of the mount is Rolling Tankard. Requires having a crafting class to at least level 70 so you can do the Dwarf tribe dailies. It unlocks in their shop at max reputation rank.

[boreal storm]

You can’t buy tribe materials beforehand

[remote lintel]

rolling tankard is a great name

[mellow mountain]

level 70 unfortunately

[proper walrus]

What do i do with triad cards i have already got, i can't sell them.

[remote lintel]

turn them in for mgp at the saucer

[jovial quarry]

There is an NPC in the Gold Saucer who will buy them from you and gives MGP. Same counter as the mender. Right next to mini-cactpot.

[regal pawn]

You can use the Duty Finder to go to the battlehall

so you can sell wherever

and then when you leave battlehall
you're back to where you entered it from

[last dock]

For the lvl 90 raid gear, I do each of the five raids once a week right?

[boreal storm]

4

[last dock]

Right

[calm hill]

is crafted gathering gear better than script?

I'm level 90 and not sure what I should do first in terms of Gearing

oh its cheap on the marketboard

[tight plinth]

how can i craft demon weapons or how do i unlock it?

[autumn hedge]

How can I unlock more recipes that turn faded copies into orchestration rolls?

[full nimbus]

how do i do bowl of embers (hard) ? i dont see it in the duty finder

[fair portal]

so how impossible are the new savages if you don't have a static

[boreal storm]

Unlock it, waking sands

[open coral]

They're not

[dense pier]

How do I get the ARR masterbooks again? I know I can go check in the end-game town but I'm busy crafting collectibles atm so I can't go teleport

[boreal storm]

Make item, give to talan

[fair portal]

okay that's good then. im having trouble remembering just the first one's setup lol

[full nimbus]

what do i have to do in waking sands? talk to a particular npc?

[boreal storm]

First of all the quests should be appearing on the msq tracker, 2nd of all

[fringe mantle]

I was watching a YouTube video and in their wonderful tails they have a additional reward of allagan tomestones of astronomy in their first and second line
(But I don't have that in mine? )

[full nimbus]

oh, its showing up where job quests usually go

[boreal storm]

You didn’t get the book as a lvl 90 job

[fringe mantle]

Ah

Okay thank you

[fair portal]

are people using in game macros for setting ground markers for raids? how do i do that?

[keen marten]

Any1 who plays reaper.. why do we have Harpe? just seems a useless ability...

[fringe mantle]

I am a couple million exp away from 90 I won't to reach lvl 90 before I start the story
is Eureka and bozjan good places to far a couple million?

[boreal storm]

Eureka isn’t a leveling zone

[fair portal]

Bozjan is good

[obsidian patio]

You can save marker placements for a fight in the waymark menu

[strange coral]

Because mechanics dictate that you can't be on the boss's butt 100% of the time. You can Harpe it when you have to move away. Although by my understanding Harvest Moon is better for that purpose if you have it.

[fair portal]

I see , thanks. I'm watching some youtube videos on the raids and they have "macro text" in descriptions which a bunch of text also not related to way markers either. have no idea what that means though lol

wait, but i have to actually be in the physical location to save the markers... th at's not useful at all...

this stuff is what i was referring to

what does this actually apply to?

[open coral]

Those are the mechanics

[fair portal]

oh

is there like an online glossary for this stuff? lmfao

[open coral]

Not really

[boreal storm]

These are pretty specific to this fight

[open coral]

^

And they're self-explanatory once you've seen them.

[night wasp]

Quick question: can you give items to a friend in another world? Moogle mail doesn't seem to work that way

[fair portal]

i mean ive only seen them in videos

[boreal storm]

If they’re in your DC, sure

[night wasp]

Oh how?

[boreal storm]

Just trade

[night wasp]

But you have to visit their world then?

[obsidian patio]

Yep

[night wasp]

i see, thanks a lot

[woeful breach]

Anyone here an emote expert

[fallow saffron]

Once I'm finally able to upgrade out of the trial, will I be able to move chars from one server to another? As in, if I do some playing time during off hours on Asia servers with a gatherer/crafter, will I be able to move them over to an NA server later?

[boreal storm]

If the world transfer service is up by then

[fallow saffron]

Ahh so there's a service for it, gotcha

[boreal storm]

Which it most likely will(?), maybe

[fallow saffron]

Understandable, I realize this is all new territory

[tall hatch]

Is there an ETA on when we will be able to buy complete edition / get out of trial ? I was planning to buy it after i reached lvl 60 before christmas :/

[fallow saffron]

Lol, absolutely nothing yet, been keeping my ear down for it

[winter jetty]

i think i saw somewhere that if a healer is using gcds for dungeon pulls, then something is going wrong, does that apply for whm as well?

[open coral]

That is... not entirely true for any healer.

I mean, it depends a bit on the content level, but the worst it means is that people are taking a lot of damage and the healer is out of ogcds.

It doesn't really mean that something's gone "wrong"

[slate arrow]

Dungeon healing is entirely different

But especially in wall 2 wall pulls depending on the tank you will have to start hardcasting cure 2

[warm snow]

You should be able to sneak in a few holys tho

[gilded forge]

Just to double check before I throw them out, can the nier raid coins be used for anything?

[open coral]

Not anymore

[gilded forge]

Can't be traded in for tomestones or the like?

[green vapor]

Isn't Defiance + Cone Attack on WAR generate enough enmity to keep mobs from aggroing the healer?

[open coral]

If they have tank spec on, yes

[green vapor]

Since my healer just got bopped by 2 trash mobs that I clearly hit with my cone. Usually I end up using tomahawk which also gives extra

[open coral]

Maybe two hits should keep them aggroed

[obsidian patio]

Completely useless now

[green vapor]

Ah

[gilded forge]

Many thanks

[green vapor]

Usually I end up tomahawking one and AOEing it as a group.

This time I just AOE'd

[open coral]

The cone aoe has a habit of missing mobs at the edges of the pack

[green vapor]

and by the time we reached the other mobs they had deaggroed me

[open coral]

Your Overpower probably missed them

[warm snow]

That means you almost definitely missed them

[open coral]

The actual effective range is slightly smaller than the animation range

[green vapor]

Huh. I do recall seeing the Overpower dmg numbers doe. Unless that also lies

Oh well. I'll just yeet tomahawks and whack em twice

[unkempt heath]

Having a brain fart - there's a way to turn off joining other GC's during thing like Frontline right? I keep ending up in Immortal Flames and I'd rather teabag boiling water.

[leaden ginkgo]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pV83gom4XY Does this vid show all Relics except Endwalker or are Zodiac Relics something diffrent than relics, I also heard of "Anima" and no idea what that type is. Also a relic?

[mystic merlin]

Are there any RDM players here

?

[leaden ginkgo]

RDM?

[twilit arch]

zodiac relics are the lvl 50 relics

[unkempt heath]

@leaden ginkgo Those are just the ARR relics - Zodiac is from the first expansion. Lux would be the second expansion.

[twilit arch]

each expansion has its own relic series

[green vapor]

red mage

[twilit arch]

Zodiac is ARR's, Anima is HW, Eureka is Stormblood, Resistance is Shadowbringers

[unkempt heath]

Eureka is a whole different animal compared to the rest, in terms of a relic grind

[mystic merlin]

Red Mage

[leaden ginkgo]

I see, and what are "Anima" weapons?

[twilit arch]

the heavensward relic series

[leaden ginkgo]

Eureka is really grindy is what ur sayn?

[twilit arch]

so the lv 60 relics

[leaden ginkgo]

AH yea u said that sorry

[mystic merlin]

I was going to try the job out and use WeskAlber's guide. I wanted to see if it was still viable given all the changes

[twilit arch]

all jobs are viable

play what you enjoy

[mystic merlin]

The guide is what i meant

[unkempt heath]

RDM hasn't changed in any drastic measure where I don't think the base guide wouldn't still maintain some value.

[twilit arch]

afaik red mage wasn't change that significantly, so the guide should more or less still be accurate

the major differences between shb and ew i believe is that you can use the melee combo at 50 mana

so you can do it more often

[slate arrow]

The only significant change is the mana gauge

Otherwise you just get scorch 2

[leaden ginkgo]

Yooo, someone knows the name of those hairs or how to get them?

[mystic merlin]

So I can his guide for now?

[unkempt heath]

Go for it.

[mystic merlin]

Cool. Makes life easier for me

Weskalber's guides have always been helpful

[twilit arch]

its a default hairstyle, though viera nor hrothgar have access to it @leaden ginkgo

[leaden ginkgo]

Oooh okay tsy

[leaden ginkgo]

My hyur has a decently similar one as well

ahhh found them, ty you very much!

Question for yall, how realistic is it for people just starting out to purchase land in game?

[odd grail]

hey, does anyone know how to deal with constant freezes, dissapearring audio and animations & everything else just stopping working for few seconds? Tried reinstalling the game, but it didn't repaired it

my internet connection is fine, as well as PC specs and temperatures

it all went downhill since Endwalker released out

[boreal hamlet]

Are there server issues going on right now? I seem to be getting disconnected from the server every 15 minutes or so, then I have to wait in the queue of ~1000 people. On the Aether server, Sargatanas world

[boreal storm]

It’s 3 million at the minimum, and that’s assuming you manage to get the plot

[open coral]

I'm also playing on Aether-Sarganatas right now and not having issues.

1k queue at 5:20EST on a Saturday isn't that bad eitehr.

[leaden ginkgo]

I got that, and I'm level 44 right now. I just wondered if owning a house is something I should strive towards or if that's a lot of gill combined with the pains of getting the land.

[open coral]

It's doable for anyone.

[boreal hamlet]

Should I change my server then? I’m a new player

[boreal storm]

Joining a FC with a house is a lot simpler, or getting an apartment

[leaden ginkgo]

@boreal storm @open coral Thanks for the help guys (:

[open coral]

Sure, you can try using the world visit login method.

Aether's got some of the more intense queue times overall though, since there's a bunch of streamers across the DC

[fathom glacier]

question, what does each color tell about the item
like from white (commen) to...?

[sacred apex]

For warrior, it’s best keep onslaughts 2 or below but use them all during raidbuffs. And for IR keep rolling it but save it when you know buffs are about to come?

[faint flare]

Buffs should always be out when you use IR

As all raid buffs are either one or two minutes

[boreal storm]

It really doesn’t say much

[faint flare]

So if people are actually using their shit it naturally lines up

[boreal storm]

Purple = relic, pink is irrelevant

[open coral]

Green = dungeon, blue = raid/trial/tomestone, purple = relic

[fathom glacier]

so purple is the legendary rarity in the game?

[boreal storm]

Green is also crafted gear sometimes

[open coral]

More like Artifact weapons in WoW

[boreal storm]

You just go through a bunch of quests to make a weapon stronger, those are relics

[fathom glacier]

ah, upgrade able stuff

[open coral]

Yeah

But some crafted gear is also upgradable, to an extent

[zealous agate]

Do they regularly come out with new Triple Triad cards?

[boreal storm]

As is tomestone gear

[open coral]

It's a little fluid that way

Gear color classifications

[orchid forum]

Does ShB role quest give gear at the end of it?

[open coral]

No

[slate arrow]

Each patch usually brings 1-2 cards from current content yes

[faint flare]

Indirectly yes

[zealous agate]

Cool

[faint flare]

It let's you buy the gear from Grendolt in the tempest

[slate arrow]

*obtain for free

[prime plover]

I currently have Eden's Gate: Resurrection unlocked and completed but I have none of the others unlocked. How and where can I go to unlock them?

[faint flare]

Continue the story for it

[dense pier]

Do I need white scrips for ARR masterbooks?

[slate arrow]

Continue the raid questline

[boreal storm]

No, you give talan items

[dense pier]

Kk just making sure

[prime plover]

Where though? I like quit for some time since and I realized I never unlocked them and don't have a quest for it.

[orchid forum]

Ahh that makes sense considering its not per job anymore. I assume it only allows to buy the roles armour of the quest you did. Just curious as im lvl 79 but about a third of the way through and was wondering if i could grab the role quest gear to see me through to post ShB

[dense pier]

Btw, looking at how expensive the IX masterbooks for crafters are... are there any suggestions on which one(s) to prioritize?

[leaden ginkgo]

I see a lot of relic versions of 1 weapon, do i "level" relics or are there so many per Expansion for a job?

[slate arrow]
