Resistance commander?
I’m selecting “offer proof of your mettle” and I’m getting this message
It costs 20mil
Each
I have 21 million
well whats the message
Not the commander
You're too far forward from spawn
Just check the few npcs it'll take like 30s
Commissioner
Found him! Thanks!!!
Literally to your left as you spawn
i was wondering because they last so short
They also have 5min of cooldown
4m 30
effectively
so only use it during bursts, and make sure at no point is the burst interrupted
Either opener, 4min burst and at the end
and only really when you've seen the enrage
Or 2mins and 8mins
no point in wasting them while learning mechanics

Is there any good guide on lvling for beginners? I'm at lvl 50 and have no idea where to lvl now as the msq gives no xp atm
tank war btw
keep doing msq
it gives no xp bc its all lvl 50 content for post arr
even if you DID level you'd still be lvl 50 for a while in dungeons
once you get to heavensward you'll get good xp again
thank you !
!faq whynojobquest
Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in
, you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.
for some reason i thought the msq fell off and i had to spam dungeons now
dont worry you'll get to do that eventually
mkay thank you both ima go back to grinding
its my first time playing through the game thats why i got confused
game is funky, but dw you're on the right track!
im still learning what everything means its kinda overwhelming thats why im sticking to 1 thing at a time
(also you'll need to do the hard version of the primal fights and the crystal tower raids before you can get to heavensward)
which is a joke at this point.
people are usually 60+ by the time they start HW if they don't do multiple jobs
Only if they keep doing roulettes
if you focus solely msq/job quests, you end up around 52 or so at the start of HW
if you're 60+ you are either on a preferred server or you've been doing roulettes along side the msq
People still hit that 49 level wall
this, I ended up at lvl 53 just talking with everyone and everything ping ponging around

msq or alliance raid roulette better tomestone effienciency? or is there better way to farm tomestone?
the only new fights in 6.1 will be ex3 and 24-players raid?
iirc yeah we get the first alliance raid and 90ex
Yes
Ultimate is 6.15
@covert marlin it's not the best farm mind you but do you do wondrous tales
yup yup
!faq poetics
will 6.15 like 1-2 weeks after 6.1?
It will be like a month
do we know the ilvl to enter ultimate?
400-500 tomestone though uwu
if i use living dead, how much do they have to heal me ? i don't understand this
to full
say you have 1k hp, as long as you get healed for 1k hp you're good
How come the music goes from all serious in the snow area (I think its ishgard? Not sure though) to being comical when I ride my chocobo, and then back to serious when I dismount. Is there a setting that lets me keep the zone music over the mount music? It sounds like a dumb question but it keeps pulling me out of the story/zone.
so it is basically always full ?
you don't have to be full hp, as long as you get healed for your max hp amount
sound settings -> turn off mount music
ok
Thank you so much it was driving me up the wall
Well I dont know if that is the right place to ask but I have a problem. My SSD died out yesterday suddenly and I lost my E-mail adress also my Secret question + answer, I tried like 6 hours to find that e-mail but couldnt find it sadly. I know the ID and Password only but after installing new m2 ssd I tried to download the game through steam again ( I bought the game through steam, same for game time ) I had a warning message it was smth like your account got restricted because of different IP and we sended an e-mail regarding that. As I said I forgot the e-mail that I signed up. I cant open ticket because it wants E-mail + secret question + answer so which I dont remember. I tried to e-mail store support square enix but we are on weekend so I dont know if they help me or not. Is there anything I can do ? I have transaction history etc, every information billing adress and such. I'm scared now. Cheers
Aside fron Daily Roulette whenever i can get the adventurer in need rewards, what is the best way to level, running highest LVL dungeons?
meanwhile the rest of the tanks have no drawback
!faq altlvlguide
AiN is worthless
once you do the dailies you'll start queing for the high level dungeons directly
"Run your highest level dungeon that is NOT level 50/60/70/80." as in using that play list or i just run dungeons 49
There’s not a 49 dungeon so
run 47/59/69 etc
Aurum vale it is
Ah so everything just not X0 dungeons, thx
ye, those give poetics
leveling and frontline are the best reward for time spent so i'd do those first
allaince and msq i can only do so many times daily without burning myself out lol
it's probably the kinna musketoon
!iglam kinna musketoon
that's the deepshadow gun
Tyty
!iglam deepshadow pistol
Also, how do i get my crafter to level 1 million the fastest way?
is P2S easier or harder for healer than P1S ?
There's alot more raid damage
what does the number on the right indicates?
Basically every other mechanic is an aoe
How many pfs for that there is
@mint lotus The chakra gauge there is just predicting about how much chakra you'd have at that point, assuming you spend it as soon as it reaches 5. I don't think it pays any mind to whether or not that ogcd slot is already occupied by something, or maybe it just assumes you are double weaving forbidden chakra (probably a bad idea on most connections.) You don't have to pay too close attention to it, afaik
ohh thank you!
Does anyone know what the FC Settlement look like..? Because I've tried looking all over the internet and still nothing. i:
i have no idea what you mean by "fc settlement"
Free Company Settlement.
You mean housing?
there is no such thing as a "free company settlement" so i'm going to assume you're talking about housing?
I'd say harder
This is assuming your group is fucking less mechanics
Hey guys, I've found a physical copy of the game for sale and was wondering if I picked that up could I create an account and play or would I still have to wait?
Anywhere selling physical copies is suspect could be reselling used codes
It's a gamestop so it's safe
Can I send pictures here?
yes, should be able to
I'm being stalked by 3 lalafell with matching clothes? They keep clipping into walls and under the floor and stuff and I teleport but they keep finding me. Also their usernames are all keysmash like "fsggjhigx wsgkaxe"
They haven't said anything but they're kinda scaring me lol
I'm trying to modify a macro that I found somewhere to add in SGE and RPR job swap buttons. In the macro for the healer jobs, it shows this
/hotbar display 9 [on/off]
/hotbar copy CNJ 5 share 9
When I try to add SGE to that hotbar 5 when I am a WHM (CNJ?), it doesn't add it. Anyone know what I am missing?
probably bots that are leveling/doin msq and you are doin the same don't think they are stalking you
I stopped doing msq and just started randomly teleporting places and they're still following me, though. They're also ~10 levels higher than me
perhaps they're automatically leeching off you for easy xp/loot
i highly doubt they're stalking you and msq brings you back to a lot of the same places anyways.
You could always just report for harassment
Is there anything i can get from this heavensturn event
oh cool, thanks
my WHM is level 80. Is it possible to switch to CNJ at all?
Why would you tho?
WHM is literally CNJ but better.
for my macro
The only reason to switch back to CNJ is to get that Level 30 unicorn mount.
remove your job stone
Again it doesn’t really help since CNJ is missing A LOT of WHM stuff
change cnj to whm in the macro
I don't want to actually play as a CNJ
y'all are entirely misreading the question
you can use a more direct approach
I want to see the action bars of my CNJ
just unequip your job stone
please read my messages
you may need to get a weapon that cnj can use as well
as you can't have an empty weapon slot
I think I need an actual CNJ weapon
like /hotbar copy whm 1 whm 2
it won't let me unequip my WHM job stone since I have WHM-specific gear on
as long as it says "CNJ" on the list you're good
yeah then just buy some low level cnj weapon off the mb
what did you need help with for your macro
Only a handful of weapons and armors are specific for WHM and not CNJ
I assume they’re trying to copy their cnj hot bar over
earlier when a few of you said to use current instead of share, that ended up not doing what I wanted it to do
I have those three role specific macros that then toggle the a hotbar for those jobs in that role
Which is why I mentioned the kits being so different
share changes the actual sharing properties
of the hotbar
not what you want
you can use copy
such as hotbar copy JOB 1-9 JOB 1-9
like hotbar CNJ 1 WHM 1
copies cnj 1 hotbar to whm 1
you can also change each indiv slot if you want with a macro
if you are making a macro to change jobs
you can use an internal command instead
like change
itll auto swap bars
so you would run gs change 1-99
like gs change 9
where 9 is your 9th gearset
@sick knot
I figured out what I needed. I just needed to switch to CNJ. My relic weapon wouldn't let me do that for some reason.
Once I bought a CNJ weapon and switched to it, the CNJ bars I needed to modify were there.
All good now. Thank you!
A random player just invited me to a party and then went offline, kinda confused bout what just happened

nvm they wanted to inv to an fc but didn't know bout the trial restriction
kinda yikes inviting random people to parties
So for farming the anima relic can I do dungeons unsync?
Idk if this is the right place, but i was watching a pld doing p1s reclear, and he was using low blow and interject on the boss, is that what u are supposed to do?
Ok that makes it much easier
I wonder if they'll make the alternate methods for the resistance relic unsync able in a later patch
Lol no
Probably meming
They want something to press ok
oh ok lol
It does nothing
how do i download ffxiv again? Just got a new pc.
!faq download
Cuz this will download faster and is honestly better
graci
Has plugin support too
https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/item/b3e76a32717 How do i know if this is for Males?
it's for males.
There's very little gender locked gear
Unless it specifically mentions that it’s for a certain gender, it’s everyone
have they put a date yet when they resell?
No, they would’ve mentioned it
has something like this happened before? if then how long did it take?
Unprecedented
They even removed most of the old gender locks in endwalker
They stopped sales back when arr launched but they could actually get hardware then. So this is still unprecedented
ok cu when expansion is over XD
There's news next week
"Hello everyone. I have news for you regarding the suspension of sales.
Sales will remain suspended. Please go home forever. Thank you."
No shitposting
So does new hardware mean more server in the data centers or better server that hold more people ?
Cuz more severs fixes the sales thing but the server that already are full will still experience the wait times
if they procure more hardware, it would be a mix of both
Also maybe adding trial specific server could be worth
upgrading existing servers, and adding new ones (such as the announced "materia" data center for SEA)
Not likely
Tell me you know nothing about server architecture without telling me you know nothing about server architecture
Yeesh
Hey folks, ive been getting back int othe game since launch of endwalker slowly, but i'd like to play with my GF. Anyone have any idea how we can get her an account as they suspended sales of everything>
No
she's tried it on my account, my that defeats the purpose of playing otgether -.-;
You can’t
i have a problem with this quest, im at the location, but the dude isn't there
well,, damn 😦
Have you looked above or below?
drowning wench and then the ramp outside
always look around
i made this summoner glamour a while ago but i've completely forgotten the chestpiece i used to make it anyone able to recognise it
Shouldn’t you still have it saved in your plates?
I'm not able to start On the Road Again as my bard quest, even though I'm pretty sure I'm through all the prerequisites. Is there anything tricky I could be missing?

That looks like the edengrace casting coat. Forget the exact name.
at the right location and i completed A Relic Reborn
That’s not what they said
whoops, sorry new
where can I become a botanist?
Pratai basically answered it for you
Gridania
to do the next expansions job quests you have to actually reach the next expansion
So in order to farm aphorism tomes I need to do the roulettes as a 90? Even if I’m max lvl it’s okay to do them right?
Roulettes as a lv90 or any lv90 content
Aight
hi, is it possible to get multiple chess per savage fight?
Does Godbert and/or Saint Coinach have a discord?
For every four people in the instance that have not cleared that week, one chest will spawn.
So if you run with a full party of 8 uncleared, that's two chests. Dropping to 7 uncleared and one cleared however will put it down to one chest. Anything below four uncleared will result in no chest.
what food stats should i focus with drk ? vit and crit ?
all foods have vitality on them iirc, but
ah ok. and the 2nd one ?
i assume timeworn maps are random on harvesting nodes? i feel i've been incredibly lucky finding a few of them while gathering plants lately
I believe pretty much everyone would want to use Pumpkin Potage (a master recipe) right now, since it gives crit/det/vit
Crit det or crit sks food
nice. ok. ty
yeah, they're randomly going to appear in your nodes and can only be collected once every 18 hours total across all types of Timeworn Maps
ah i see
so for example, if you get a Saigaskin Timeworn, you can't get a Kumbhiraskin Timeworn until 18 hours later
I don't know if there's any set chance that we know of for the maps to show up on a node, nor is it something we can affect with stats
do each of the type of maps appear only in a certain area? or is it, any map, anywhere
what's the best way to find statics for P1S etc? Tried with PF yesterday for 10+ hours and seems impossible. once new party forms everyone isnt on the same page anymore
there's a subreddit for ffxiv recruitment
PF, recruitment discords or r/ffxivrecruitment
I dont use reddit. any other way?

maps only appear in certain nodes,and the nodes only drop the maps of the corresponding level, for ex for EW it'd be in the last zone, can get either 90 map from any node in there
cool, thanks
ah demmm looks like almost a month & still cant buy ;-; s.enix take my monehhhhhhhh
See #resources for various recruitment discords
hey im trying to purchase a game code where do i get one? on the website that is
Nowhere
They stopped all sales of the game due to vast congestion
There's news next week but don't exist it lifting soon
rip ;-;
honestly surprised, i think this is the first time i see an MMO closing servers rather than letting more money flowing and causing more congestion
not even through steam?
No
There's a lot of resources and I ended up joining a lot of dead servers. What is the best one in this list to pick for these Savage raids?
All official sellers have stopped
One for your data centre
thanks
All recruitments should be alive
i mean i have an old account but i couldn't get it to work so i thought id start fresh
My friend's PC died and they have to play on a really shitty laptop. Does anyone know if there are any low spec mods or is that not a thing
I doubt it tbh, just have them run it at the lowest possible graphics settings
if anything adding mods might make it worse
So is there a way to enable windowed borderless, but make it so that it isn’t 4K? My computer THEORETICALLY can run 4K, but the in game fps count says otherwise
the game should run well even on low-end hardware,
given that it at least has a more than trash cpu.
might need to lower resolution
play windowed
no, because FFXIV doesn't have built in resolution scaling
For ranking up companion chocobo, Do i need to use Thavnairian Onion when hes maxed exp or can I use all onions to get it to max rank?
dang it
lower your desktop resolution.
borderless window will always be your desktop resolution
will there be augmented versions of current green crafted combat weapons?
This is still sadly a 2012 video game at the end of the day
unless something changes the answer should be yes
although i guess by the time they even arrive i'll probably have the astronomy weapon anyway
Weird, the game shouldn't be that taxing
What's your setup?
Uh… I’d need to pull the specs up, and I forgot how lol
How long of a wait is it usually between raid tiers? i.e. when would we get p5n-p8n?
Task manager should be close enough, though Speccy is also a choice
It's every other patch so the next raid their will be 6.2
That will be in about 6-8 months
Perfect, thanks
hmmm I'm actually pretty bad at computers lol
I'm just gonna blame Windows 11 lol
I think your CPU is a bit lagging behind?
When will patch 6.1 be released/what’s the time between x.1 patches?
I can't quite tell which i7 you are using
We don't know

Can someone explain to my why on the server I am in, a Gatherer's Guile Materia V (+10 Perception) is selling for 8k+ while the Gatherer's Guile Materia VII (+12 Percetion) is only selling for 5k+ ?
not the same person selling it
yes but I am going by the cheapest price
plus people probably already bought the cheaper one so only overpriced ones left
Player run economy is weird like that
V is probably used more given that it's used later in melding, and therefore lower chance of success
ok so I shouldnt over think it with thinking there is a reason to have a lower level materia on my gear?
because overcapping a stat is just meh
just economy being wack?
V has a slightly higher chance for overmeld success than VII i believe
oooooh, if youre right then I can kinda of understand that
1-4 are the ones with higher chances, last I checked
so if you don't need the full value from VII and capping out with just V, you just get V
checking my meld tracker I made for myself rq
how many pazuzu feathers & protean/anemos crystals do you need total? wanna know how much until I'm done w/ that instance 😅
hm, okay, i wasn't sure
so based on the list I got from ffxivteamcraft's list
the top-tier meld list does not use Guile VII more than once
right
whereas Guile V is used in three spots
more materia needed, so higher demand; higher demand increases prices
so its mostly due to overmelding and since you dont need the full amount of VII you use V as its higher chance too
apparently V doesn't have higher chance? not sure
Guile VII is used in the fourth meld (second overmeld) of your legs, where Guile V is needed for your fifth meld (fourth overmeld) of your earrings and the fourth melds (third overmelds) of both rings, it looks like
I think it's just 1-4 with the higher chances
well thanks for answering the question, it all make sense now
I thought it was stupid but that explains it
SLPT just use X / IX all the way, the lower ones just take up inventory space
well the sheet I made myself, but the meld list I got from https://guides.ffxivteamcraft.com/guide/gathering-melding-guide (specifically the High Tier set)
I'm just using blue to indicate standard melds and red to indicate overmelds - purely a design choice for myself.
ye but isnt everything after the blue an overmeld? or are the reds the one you have already overmelded?
if i were to sell/discard my level 89 artifact gear, could i still get it back somewhere? cause its taking up alot of room
The thick line here separates normal melds from overmelds, the colored in cells indicate whether or not I've actually melded that slot
you should be able to pick it up from where you got it, if you discarded it
tyty
^you just go to who you got it from before
ahhh ok cool, thanks dood, been very helpful. Will be yoinking 😛
for the heavensturn 2022 kabuto rewards, can you get both colors eventually or are you only limited to one?
oooh ok thanks, will save me a bit of excel work then
you reach rank 10 -> feed onion -> level to rank 11 -> feed onion -> repeat
where can i get myself a fat cat
If it drops 2 chess, is it possible for a player to get both?
You can win multiple rolls if multiple items drop, but regardless of if you win or lose the rolls, that's it for your chanced loot for the weke
For someone who is only really planning to tackle P1S in the next couple weeks (not much time to attempt) is a pentameld really needed? Speaking as a healer (whm). I’d prefer not to spend millions to get all the materia on.
I can attest: no
Not for the first two floors
I got my clear last night and I only had moonward/extremes/normal raids gear
no classical pieces
whats a good way to level desynth? :0
If I change my retainer class, does leveling takes the same time as regular leveling? Or it has some sort of bonus to make it faster?
How do you get the asphedolos weapons and are there 2 versions of them? One for normal and one for extreme?
Asphodelos is a drop from P4S (or bought for the pity books)
Radiant weapon would be the "normal" version which requires 7 blades from P4N and a discal tome, which costs 500 tomes
Total of 7 weeks, as you can only get 1 blade per week
that's rough lmao
Unless you're doing savage, you don't really need more than the radiant wep or even just the wep drop from 89ex
Yeah, but I assume the radiant version doesn't have the animations?
Well it's a different model entirely
how do you disable the "not yet ready" when spamming a gcd?
oh I see
tysm
so is the Pizza emote only comes for NA version or is it region free?
thanks
The promo is over anyway
expired? because some people selling it on ebay
yeah afaik it's only for NA account region
if your account is not NA, you won't be able to redeem it

can I repeat the fight until I get the chess? since it will still drop a chess if only 1 cleared the fight in the group
I'm looking to do the Anima Relic and it appears most the grind is for Poetics.
What's the best way to go about this? I was told Eurika is good, but requires a significant upfront grind. Would I be better off with dailies?
Once you clear, that's it. That's your chance for the week.
I've never done Anima weapon but I would say yes to dailies
Hunt trains are also decent

Off centre question, the OST releasing next month..
Endwalker brings the tale of Hydaelyn and Zodiark to a conclusion eons in the making.Warrior of Light – Bear forth our hope, that these days not be the last! The soundtrack features 62 songs from the expansion, including the “Endwalker” theme song.■ Bonus ItemThe product comes withincludes an in-game item code for the a “Wind-up Vrtra” minion!* ...
How do we get the digital tracks..? I'm guessing it's a code..??
Thanks!
@unborn light pretty sure that's not digital
@kirstylee_92 That's in the DISC! And we're probably going to do download-only as well.
Soken confusies..
the longer you wait the less you're gonna need it, it's either an ilvl boost when trying to progress savage raids fast, or an ilvl catchup when you get a job to 90 and want to go into endgame content with it without farming tome/raid gear
Oh
if you're just playing casually with 1-2 jobs then weekly tome gear will be enough
@unborn light he said it's a cd and there's going to be separate digital ones
Ok ty
which will probably be on stuff like apple music
its possible it gets added to mog station later
Are custom deliveries worth it for levelling? Or should I use them for maxed out DoH/DoL for the purple scrips?
Very much so
As an android user..i'm guessing I have to go Amazon..since PlayMusic is gone and they won't put it on YT
Ah ok - thanks!
it will be on Spotify eventually
Can anyone help me? I bought the game, got the code which i have to activate, but it doesnt work
i have a 20digits code but i can't do anything with it
You can't buy the game atm
That's a dlc code
How much xp do roulettes actually give? It's based on % of a level, right?
No
soo i can't make the game work right now, if i don't have the base one?
No
Is there a calculator or table somewhere?

You can't use dlc for a game you don't own
thank You, should've asked before i spent 3hours trying to make it work
The job I'm currently working on is ~800k from 81 and I'd rather not run Gulg again if I don't have to
Then do a roulette
I mean I'd like to know if Trial roulette or something will get me there...
does mch have less defense than brd?
i'm in coils t13 and i'm getting nearly one shot by the first gigaflare which wasn't happening as brd
neurolink?
Yes
that's t5
is there any info when will we be able to make it again?
What about Bozja or 80 fates? 200k exp for 5 minutes
i mean t13
whatever you're talking about it's not that
I guess I'll just do Gulg again.
That's how you survive gigaflare
trials never give much exp
it's msq > leveling > alliance
Twintaina spawns, kill her and it drops a neurolink
what twintania ? what puddle?
One of the Mercedes dragons share her model
Do you left not see the GIANT BLUE PUDDLE
we are not talking about the same thing at all
i'm talking about bahamut prime normal mode
We are
the FIRST gigaflare
Which is adds
all jobs of the same role have the exact same amount of defense (due to them sharing the same armor)
Wait are you...doing it synced?
yes
thank you for the answer
you turned off giga echo or something maybe, but yeah MCH and BRD are the same
it's just weird then cause i'm definitely taking more damage as mch
only difference would be if one you use troub and the other you don't
or well whatever everyone else uses
since you're doing sync you're in a party I assume
of course
then it's likely just whatever other ppl are doing
if you have the exact same gear as brd then the defensives are different
troubadour/tactician/shield samba are basically a role skill masquerading as a job skill

I am having trouble tracking down how to become a dragoon, eventually I found a maelstrom quest that leads to Sylph Management... Do I need to be maelstrom for dragoon? I am confused.
To unlock your class' job you need to be level 30, complete all of your class quests and the main scenario quest 'Sylph Management' (lvl 20 quest) to be able to pick up your job unlock quest. Once you've done the initial unlock quest, you will be given a soul crystal which you must equip to become your class' job.
sylph management doesn't require maelstrom, it's just a step before but every GC gets the same step
grand company choice doesnt matter for anything except 2 or 3 different looking gearsets
Ah so Sylph management is now unlocked because I joned a GC?
the 3 questlines merge back into one, if you haven't done sylph management, just keep doing the MSQ
it's a MSQ
sylph management is msq

here are all grand company gearsets
is there a way to make the Command Mission NPC less dumb? The tanks don't tank, the healers don't heal and the dps stand in aoe's
I go in as healer and the tank only aggro's 1 enemy and the rest come for me. it's terrible
and the healers pick their nose for 5 seconds before remembering 'oh yeah i should probably cast a cure 1'
is there a reaper rotation command?
sorry i was in the duty;
i don't think that's it cause i was watching the debuffs and even with reprisal i was still taking more on mch than brd
but it's really strange because there's like a 5k-7k variance
there's definitely not a puddle though
and this is phase 1 so no vuln stacks
i think gladiator is better at aoe tanking since their aoe attack hits stuff around them, not in a cone, like for marauders
so try using a gladiator if you were using a marauder
good call, Iwas using a marauder. their aoe is bad you are right
does changing class reset them to level 1?
no, reduces by 1 lvl
sweet. thx for the tip
this is synced so lv50; i don't have troubadour
^ ironically
Should I ever use the normal version of Benefic over Benefic II? Or is it a strait upgrade?
Hi everybody im playing dancer as the race lalafell, i was wondering if this was the place to ask how the level 90 new endwalker gear looked on them because i cant find it anywhere >.<
never unless youre synced below bene 2
@mental halo male or female
oh sorry, male ^-^
1 sec
Would it switch automatically or do I need to keep it on my bar if I get synced lower?
You would need top keep it on your bar, Benefic is a separate action from Benefic II
Also same question about regular spells vs aspected spells? Just strait better?
those have completely different effects
Aspected spells are regens, regular spells are "upfront" heals
An aspected heal does less healing immediately, but the regen gives it more total healing per cast
Ah got it okay
A regular heal has a big up-front heal, but heals less on a per-cast basis than the aspected ones
as you get more and more stuff as you level
@mental halo
you should use benefic and helios less and less and less
Typically you want to try and rely on regens if it can outheal the damage
well in the case of benefic/cure and benefic/cure 2, once you have the higher one you can basically unbind the lower one
because they're pretty trash
thank you soooooooo much ^-^
they'll become your 'oh crap' buttons
@zealous agate no it doesnt auto switch because theyre 2 different spells
as in 'oh crap i've somehow ran out of everything better to press so i guess i'll resort to pressing this now'
on low levels you don't have anything better to press though
on a scale of 1 to dancer, how is NIN doing right now
what does that mean
anyone know why you get spell at lvl52 for WHM that requires lilys, and a trait that should add lilys to the guage, but you don't get the guage until lvl60?
the guage?
Yes
oh
Typically Job Quests are contained within their expansions separately. If you have not reached the next expansion in
, you need to continue the main story quests until you reach the next expansion, denoted by giant letters naming said expansion.
That is before the dawn
That’s what the faq said
As stated
helping a friend get through ARR for the first time 🙂 it's a bit confusing when you did everything when it came out yourself 🙂
is there already info on how good Reaper is in terms of dps compared to the other jobs?
really??
Other jobs will be buffed in 6.08
that comes as a surprise, thanks for the answer!
it's very very barely ahead of MNK mind you
Yoshi talked about balancing in #translations-and-liveletters
got it, thanks!
When do you think the alliance raid shall come out, 6.1?
yes
It's always X.1, X.3 and X.5
It's always .1
you can remember because the yorha gear is 51, 53, 55; the patch number it was released
so im just starting to do DoH custom deliveries, but these seem notably harder to hit t3 on than gatherers of the same tier...do i basically need SB vendor gear for hte level 60 custom deliveries? o.O
You don’t need to hit tier 3 unless you want more scrips
figured since it's my first DoH custom delivery (and thus 0 white scrips), it'd be worth trying to maximize it if it's not too difficult
to get the gear asap or w.e
Is there an orchestrion roll for the new Endwalker curscene music? That one that plays in the first cutscene in the rising stones for example
*cutscene
does anyone know how to fix direct x 11 crashes i feel like ive been crashing everyday
So I'm level 80 and finished shadowbringers. Why am I not getting xp points now? My mage skills go up to 90.
Didn’t register EndWalker
Do I have to buy endwalker?
If you want to continue the story, yeah
So once I get that I will level up again?
youll be able to gain exp and play EW
Fab ty
Pretty sure not. The only cutscene music they added as a roll in EW is Flow, IIRC
So, do I need to work on botanist to do the gardening stuff? Or just own an apartment
do i have to wait for the time to pass? or can i walk back to the leve quest npc to hand in already?
So if you buy someone a 60 day game time code but they use the entry sub, can they still use that code?
Yes
Just own an apartment
Oh, thanks!
iirc for these you have to wait I think, can run to the NPC
Is there any way to make a semi hudless mode where you can keep only a few essentials?

Ask someone in game
you could just make one of your hud presets something minimal and then have your other huds be the in combat stuff
if p1s gets 1-chested, does it drop 2 coffers or 1?
then just keybind the huds
for 80-90 is it better to spam duty roullete and dungeons or do bozja?
random
wait so if we go in with 7 fresh and 1 cleared person, we might only get ONE drop?
yes
you can make multiple custom hud settings?
literally first thing you see when you open HUD layout is 1 2 3 4
can also make macros to switch, like /hudlayout 3 or whatever
sweet
Ive got the switching hotbar depending on weapon sheathing setting checked but when my weapon is put away my hotbars dont change
i keep forgetting to look into it after finishing the disney line queue lol
that's a gamepad option
noob here. should i spend my whatever these are for a better sword or armor?
Ahhhh okay
yes
Weapon > body > pants
And ye
well actually it might work with normal hotbars I've just never seen it used, maybe someone else will have a different answer
It's best you can get for 5 lvls
I found a macro for it, is it possible to set two things to the same keybind?
Is there a preferred way to level alts from 50-60 besides dungeons and roulettes?
Potd if you got long queues
when doing DoH custom deliveries, is buying the item possible or you have to craft them?
you have to craft it, collectables are untradable
but they're simple recipes with materials from a vendor so it's not really any difficult
is there any news about when the game will be available again?
they said there will be a comment about it next week no?
oh ok that's good to know
i just hope it won't take until march
I'm waiting since end of november to play
What is hotbar copy suppose to do, I am using it but nothing is happening
anyone know if this is shows on viera?
That’s a no
Are there any good videos/guides for Dancer level 90 rotation? I can't seem to find anything.
!faq balance
Anyone home
How do people set up markers with one click in savage content? I tried googling it but not finding anything useful
Saved waymarks
Click the arrow on the waymark menu
You can save 5 waymark loadouts
Apparently I can't proceed with the main scene until I complete something called crystal tower series what's that?
Thanks ❤️
Thats the ARR Alliance Raid. Let me look up the starting quest really quick
!quest legacy of allag
Where do I even go for that
can you set the game so that it shows the party list even if im not in a party?
An oddly garbed man visiting Revenant's Toll has some information which might be of interest to an experienced adventurer.
Outlandish Man
Mor Dhona (X: 21.86 Y: 8.17)
Rammbroes
Mor Dhona (X: 30.44 Y: 12.17)
The Ultimate Weapon
Sanding It Down
Character configuration > ui > party list. Until hide when solo
awesome, thanks!
So um ?
Look at what the bot posted above
What's the name of the quest?
if my goal is just get aetheryte tickets via hunts, is it even worth doing teh daily hunt papers? or just 1/2 SB hunt trains a day (havent gotten to EW/ShB yet)?
its there in the bots post
all the info you need the npc/location/quest name is right there
I remember you could do some quests for a hair clipper when I played 5 years ago and he would unlock some new hair styles for you. One of which I really liked. Do those still apply to male Viera? I think I heard they have difficulties with adding new hair for them.
if your end goal is just aetheryte tickets, then stormblood hunt trains + weekly hunt bill from hw/sb will keep you fairly healthy stocked. shb/ew nuts can't be used to buy aetheryte tickets
doing the daily bills is entirely optional but i personally wouldn't bother
@merry merlin so as soon as I complete this quest I should be able to proceed on with the main scene
it's a 3 alli raid chain
I have ffxiv on my ps5. If i make a new Square enix account, can i login to that and play on the same ps account? (i know i need subscription on the new account). Or would i need to rebuy the game on a different ps account to be able to play on a new SE account? Sorry for confusing question
so it can take a few hours
you need to complete the quest chain up to "The Light of Hope"
PSN ID and SE account links are 1:1, so you would need a new PSN account as well.
The level 80 black mage job quest is not showing up for me even though I have all the other requirements done. Is there something I'm missing? Or is this some sorta bug, and how can I fix it?
You've completed the level 80 caster role quests as well?
Also, the level 80 class quests are 
Its a series of three 24-man raids, gonna take a bit
You have to do that quest line in order to progress the msq. The npc that gives the last job quest is not giving me quest
But you can find groups easily via duty finder once you unlock them
is it possible to buy a sub rn?
how do i use the kupo bot to look stuff up?
Yes
specifically like quests n such
You only have to do one set of role quests to level 80 for the MSQ, so if you did a different set of role quests, then you'd need to go back and do the caster ones too.
i know the command is ! but what else
cant find any option to do so in mogstation
A sub, yes. The game itself, no.
And I did that quest line.
didnt we give you the full list earlier its stuff like
!faq faqname
!quest questname
etc etc
yeah but i lost it lol
@open coralhow can i do that in mogstation? i cant find it
no, its 24man raid. not 24 quests @weary garnet
And you also finished the 5.0 MSQ "Shadowbringers"?
yup last night in fact
does 6.08 have a date yet?
as in when you do the instances, there are 24 people in the instance
no
boo, ty
Then Lalai in Ul'dah should have a
for you.
i cant complete the shadowbringers msq called the light of inspiration says i need to do one of the role quest lines in crystarium but ive already done the caster dps one how come i cant turn in? do i need to do all 4
damn i dont have a melee dps or tank that high
Do the lv80 caster quest
Assuming you have a paid version of the game registered to your account, it should be right at the top of the Service Account Dashboard.
Even the lv80 quest?
can i not buy a sub with just the trial version?
Were you a caster when you talked to him?
i think so i dont see a quest when im in caster class
!faq rolequests
What are Role Quests?
Role Quests serve as a replacement for Job-specific quests for Shadowbringers and are split into four categories (Tank, Healer, Physical DPS, and Magical DPS). These are unlocked with the quest 'Warrior of Darkness' at 71 and all start in the Crystarium around x10-11, y15-16.
At least one of these Role Quest series must be entirely completed in order to complete the Shadowbringers story. Completion of these quests, along with having the appropriate Job at 80, is also required to claim job-specific level 80 i430 gear from Grenoldt in The Tempest.
I can't find where I left off!
No need to worry! Here are links that lead to each of the Role Quest series.
Tank Role Quests
Healer Role Quests
Physical DPS Role Quests
Magical DPS Role Quests
See the link
just a few hours ago i had the returning player logo beside my name but now it turned into a sprout. is that because i've played for a month now since i came back to the game or something similar?
for the gamblers luck in xiv treasure maps, can you count cards in that or naw?
And check your journal to see what the last one was
It's completely random
No. You can't. Because you don't need a sub for the trial, and buying sub time won't make your trial a paid account. You have to buy the game for that.
and who knows when ill be able to do that
Noone
ah ok yeah i must have forgotten one ty
rhetorical lol
We'll know something by the end of the month.
Next week*
funny how ff14 went from a 52 metacritic score to so successful you literally cant buy it
Yeah, how funny it is when Devs learn from their mistakes
And work to improve
Who knew
Crazy
lets just hope they dont push this nft nonsense now lol
That a game where the devs listen to player input and incorporate their feedback into the game, could be amazing.
Yoshi wouldn't let it
The NFT stuff is on the SE side of things. If we're lucky, YoshiP will keep that garbage away.
I just don't want this to be the one time that the board overrides YoshiP when it comes to XIV
24 player raids. Thats what Alliance raids are. Just go to the quest the bot tagged and find out for yourself, its not hard
I need help with Unsynced parties for raids.
We have a group of 3 and it says you need to have atleast 1 person per group we have enough people, but I don't know how to put them into a group instead of my party.
Anyone know how to do this?
You need to make an Alliance party finder
shit of course theres a queue now
And have them join that
just when i get some free time
How do I make an Alliance party finder?
when should i try to get in again? like an hour?
In the party finder you can select which instance you want to run. If you pick an alliance raid, it will create a three-party group
It's going to be worse in an hour.
fuuuuuuck
I have no idea how to do this in the duty finder
yea lol for NA, doesnt die down till like...1/2am EST
i just wanna play the video game 😦
The instance has a red lock icon over it and I don't know how to make an alliance raid
We're in a party right now.
Have your friends leave your party first
oh well time to eat some curry and cry
Ok then invite them?
No
They'll need to join your party finder group, specifically choosing the other two alliances.
I'm also not entirely certain that it's possible to unsync Alliance riads.
Due to mechanics and group requirements.
Alright, give me a moment, I'm currently in a cutscene, but I'll double check some things when I'm done
Yes, because you're just trying to queue it
That's Duty Finder
Party Finder is not the Duty Finder
Ok I've never used that sorry
Like I said, give me a minute to finish this cutscene, then I'll give you the step-by-step instructions
is there a way to adjust the quest log alerts and quest completed/accepted popups in the middle of your screen?
my impatient ass: okay i know that 10 minutes ago there was 1018 people ahead of me...surely its fixed now
Is there any way to transfer ui settings between characters?
Documents > My Games > XIV > copy from the appropriate FFXIV_CHR folder every file except the log directory
thank you <3
theres a way to copy specific parts of it over too, but im too lazy to figure out which file is which part of hte UI, even though the names are hints
Where is a good place to look for statics that are recruiting?
Did you figure it out?
why cant i do company hunts?
Have you unlocked them yet?
it just says i am unauthorized but how do i get it then?
What's your Grand Company rank?
Storm Sergeant Second Class
ty aaaargh
What do I do next I complete a legacy of Allag already now what
Do the next quest.
I got into party finder but it's asking me to get more than 3 people
Just follow the chain to its end.
I wants me to fill all the spots
Did your friends join the other two alliances?
And did you create it as an Alliance PF?
Also, side note, LotA requires a minimum of 15 people (5 people per party) and WoD requires a minimum of 12 people (4 per party) for specific mechanics.
@open coral what's the name of the next quest
It’s from the guy you just talked to
Check your MSQ tracker.
!faq msqtracker
-
Your current or next Main Scenario Quest. These unlock a majority of content in the game and MUST be done.
-
An important Side Quest. This can be your Class and Job Quests, Side quests that unlock big features, or Side Quests that are REQUIRED to continue the MSQ. Look here if you can't continue your MSQ due to needing to complete a duty or sidequest.
By default the MSQ Tracker is located at the top-left of your screen.
It will be the quest named in the #2 position
Not the #1, the #2
Quest chain, meaning they lead into eachother
Then you don't meet the requirements
Probably ilevel.
You have to complete each of the raids in the series to move the quest chain forward.
Then I'm not allowed to play the game anymore 😥
If the next quest is red, you need to complete whatever it says is required.
Do the entire chain, not just one quest
It will always tell you what's required.
The next quest is literally at where legacy of Allag ended
Pro tip, grab 
Do the
until there are no more
from the NPCs that you're interacting with.
Do I talk to some guy called rammbroes
Yes
Something like that
Repeat until there are no more raids or
to complete
Sanding it down
Literally the first one on that list
Okie did
Do the quest
Finish the entire chain
Keep doing the quests until he doesn't give you
anymore
That will include doing raids.
How do I get back into Ilsabard? I can't walk there normally or teleport and I gotta turn in quests..
whats max lvl for beast tribes?
Which one
depends
k all diff
anytime we gonna get ff14 back in the store?
We won't know anything until next week
No It’s just that ARR tribes are weird
kk
Ilsabard is... which zone again?
Thavnair
garlemald and thavnir
Right, right
ty
the former is in Ala Mihgo, the latter is from Sharlyan
You can’t warp there
I know I can't warp. Where is gatekeeper?
OOF I gotta walk ALL the way over there?
Yes
Did you not attune to the other 2 aetherytes?
Teleport to The Great Work
I can't yet.
It's closest.
who tf designed this
Radz is a separate teleport
You unlock the city teleport later in the MSQ
You’ve seen 2 aetherytes before getting there
The whole point of the companion app is to be usable when you're not at your PC or console, so yes. Mobile only.
i dont have a phone dont want cancer
...
15 mins later. I'm in.
Just a quick question. I've already completed 1-4 savage, can i go back this week and go on practice runs or am i completely locked out?
Cancer? From a phone? Is this 1983?
You can go on runs with people, but keep in mind that your presence alone will cut their potential rewards in half.
You can still do the raids
Just cant loot at all right?
You can't, right. But you being there means that a maximum of 1 chest will spawn, instead of two.
You can't get loot, and you screw over anyone else in the party for loot as well.
So if no one else in the party needs rewards, you're golden.
Yea yea no i just want to go back and practice with some friends
Should be fine then
The fights are infinitely replayable
It's only loot that's weekly locked
is the free fantasia character wise or account wise
Character
finally finished p2s with a 0 chest group, but where do i see any log of me killing it?
