how do savage rewards work in terms of getting locked out? i remember hearing that if you beat p2s before beating p1s you get locked out (cannot obtain for the week) of p1s's rewards
The moment you even ENTER a higher floor you're locked out of previous floors
oh wtf
If you skip floors, the lower rewards go poof
wtf thats so lame
There's a giant warning on the duty finder when you do this
so i was trying to make a raise macro and i did this but it didnt show up in chat when i tried it in a dungeon can someone help?
You're meant to clear from the start each week unless you're OK with loosing lot (usually done if you don't need anything from there)
damn was meaning to practice p3s but looks like thats not possible before p2s
I have a question. I found an item on the Mateus server on the market board that is extremely cheaper than my server. Would I be able to buy it from that server and send it to my main character via mail?
is there a way to use UI element icons for /micon? for example I'm trying to set one of my macros as the Hunting Log icon but I can't get it to work
You can't mail your alts cause you can't friend them
Would there be a way to move servers?
Although if Mateus is on the same data center as you, you can simply use World Travel to visit Mateus and buy from the market board directly
World visit
Sweet!
Visit an aetheryte in Gridania, Limsa Lominsa, or Ul'dah
You'll notice they've got an extra option, something like "World Visit"
is it possible to set which song starts when I enter an Inn?
No
Sadge
You can do that in an apartment room if you'd like
(Although naturally an apartment won't have the same amenities as an inn)
how do i make Adamantite Winglet?
(and costs 500000 gil)
It isn't in my crafting log
It's a level 60 blacksmith recipe. You'll need a BSM about that level.
My BSM is 74 but i dont have it.
It's in the Master Recipe III book, pardon
Ah, where do i obtain book III?
You'll need to get some White Crafter's Scrips and buy it from a Scrip Exchange
Book III will be very cheap
You'll need them for almost every DoH class's level 60 quest
Do i start from lvl 1 character if i uses a tales of adventure for a new account?
If you use a Tales of Adventure book for the MSQ, it won't affect your job's levels
For better or worse
What's the average time to complete each expansion? I don't think the times i was told were accurate at all lol
If you story skip, you’ll probably want a job skip too
I am by the script exchange in limsa but i can't find it
They don't exist anymore
You'll either need to get a level 80 boost, or no boost at all
For what it's worth, being level 80 doesn't affect your ability to complete the MSQ
You can just get the SB jobs after
and you will be reduced respectively to an appropriate level for duties
If i wanted to get to lvl 50 fast, whats the best option?
If you specifically wanted to be level 50, it'd be as Fuilteach says
Buy a level 80 boost, and then unlock Samurai or Red Mage
as they start at level 50
How long is the game and each expansion in terms of completing MSQ+ it's dungeons?
Cant i grind it to lvl 50?
You may need to unlock scrips, if you haven't yet
!faq scripunlock
Unlocking scrips (Foundation x10, y10.)
Unlocking Idyllshire's House of Splendors (Mor Dhona 22, y6)
Unlocking Rhalgr's Reach House of Splendors (Rhalgr's Reach x10, y12)
Unlocking Eulmore's House of Splendors (Eulmore at x11, y10, on the top floor)
Unlocking Radz-at-Han's House of Splendors (Radz-at-Han x11, y9)
Or will it take very long?
You certainly can, if you want. Fastest way is to just spam dungeons all the way up.
You won’t have armoury bonus so that’ll make it slightly harder
Armoury bonus?
!faq armouryexp
'How do I get the bonus experience from the Armoury?'
As long as you're playing a Disciple of War or a Disciple of Magic class that's a lower level than your highest level class then you're able to benefit from the bonus experience. You do not need to have a class at level 90 for the bonus to be active.
'How much is the bonus experience?'
You get +100% experience from levels 1 to 79, which then reduces to +50% for level 80 to 89. The difference in level between your current class and highest class does not change the amount of experience you get.
dungeon spam if you're a tank/healer, dps might be faster to do squadrons or grind potd (very boring do not recommend lol)
How long will potd takes from 1 to 50?
Well you have to be lvl 17 to unlock it
DPS is still valid for doing dungeons, especially if you do FATEs/hunting log between.
potd is ... not for everyone
a while, its very grindy
Nope
Specify please Bc we have 4 expacs now
Why are you doing a new character anyway? Forgot to ask
10-20 hours in-game I think?
Oh wait
If your queues are good
Im boosting for a friend that has a wrong region
He finished arr alrdy
So just buy the job skip
Specify what lol
If you are determined to get to 50 within a day I think potd is probably the fastest for a dps but its soul crushing
I see
Oh you mean per expansion
So just job skip then
Think of each expansion as a full length jrpg. 40-100+ hours each.
If the character hasn't done MSQ already then they're kinds forced into that since it unlocks most everything else
It depends. Are you doing total completion? Watching msq, skipping cutscenes, are you gonna be in duty qs
Etc etc
Now, if I world travel to Mateus, how long will to take to transfer back to Malboro?
Hard to give you a timeline when everyone’s experience is drastically different
What kind of time range is that lol
depends on congestion, I think rn its not too bad since its midday on a weekday
Everyone plays the game different
There were people who finished EW MSQ within two days, but if you actually care about the story it'll take longer
Pyromancer, a popular streamer, that focuses a lot on lore is about 500 hours in and isn't even to the most recent expansion yet. Other people get to EW before 160 hours. /shrug
Games have averages. Focusing through story, cutscenes with set times, dialogue too. It's not gonna be that different
The majority of your time in the game will not be cutscenes.
There's nothing wrong with taking your time; the game is designed so that you don't need to rush to new content in order to not fall behind
There’s no average for an mmo
At least after the main MSQ run
That’s insane
granted pyromancer does take notes during cutscenes XD
Some people skip cutscenes, some people watch, some people instantly get into duties, others do not
Some people watch cutscenes more than once, or craft/gather, play other jobs, get into housing/glamour
Many things to do and no right way to play
There's no wrong way to play the game so long as you're having fun (and not ruining the fun of the people you get grouped with)
for perspective yo answer your questions based on my experience. It took me about a week per expac until shb where I took time to enjoy the story.
But that’s based off of 16 hours a day

And doing side stuff here and there
It took all my free 30 days to beat 5.55
I started playing in October and I'm only in patch 4.3
I thought I quit towards the end of HW but it was at the beginning lol not really side stuff to do apart from unlocking raids/dungeons for now. I'm gonna be 90 before end of story for sure
Don't worry about how long it takes. Just have fun with the journey
Yeah if you only use a single job you'll end up overleveled; I finished ARR at 54
If i use a arr story skip is all the teleport points/dungeons up to arr unlocked?
And story is only like half the levelling dungeons of arr, let alone the level 50 ones
Pretty sure you have to get the aetherytes, but idunno
any fixes to stuttering during raids
Better internet never hurts 
I wonder if ACT or Plugins cost me some lag
I traveled to Mateus, and the market board prices are the same as they were in Malboro. Did I do something wrong or am I just overthinking things?
i tried testing those out previously with various permutations of https://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/playguide/db/text_command/e6e219e1adc/ but nothing worked

There's one or two undocumented macroicon categories, but I could never find one for those. And as far as I know, no one else has.
Almost any early ARR zone. There's several that have fates in that range.
Adamantoise Tears got nerfed, right?
When does the next set of pandaemonium raids come out? Is it on a set schedule or no?
6.2

Patch number is scheduled actual dates are unknown and a complete crap shoot atm
Why is loporrit transliterated to レポリット? (Or visa versa) is there any method to the madness? D:
If anyone cares to reply, just @ me ^^
could probably ping/dm one of the translation team
from the member list on the right
For those of you over 100mil, do any of you like Goldsmith/armororer/alchemist/culinarion? I made a ton of gil off BS/Carp/Weaver/LW. I was debating trying out the others.
So, Im not really enjoying Summoner anymore. (Maybe once I hit 86? Currently level 82)
I'm wondering, what is, in your opinion, the most enjoyable DPS (Besides Reaper)
That’s really subjective
Doesnt get much more subjective than that
I'd say Reape - oh wait....
SMN
I did say, in your opinion. Lol
Look, I can't not giggle a bit every Akh Morn
I like monk. Punch things!
So.
I noticed the really cool looking Eureka glowing armour.
But I am confused how to get to it.
Do I need to start upgrading things from the "antiquated set" I get in SB or can I just jump into elemental and go from there
86 is the only real smn rotation change after 60
You need to upgrade weapon to elemental in the second zone to unlock the armor
Does that mean simply bringing the weapon and exchanging the needed amount of currency?
You need to progress the weapon far enough to unlock the vendor
Ontop of needing to discover 50 logos actions
and progressing the weapon means using it or?
I want to craft a stepladder to level my carpenter from 70 to 80. Can anyone write or help me find a macro?
I have 376 CP, 1069 Craftsmanship, and 983 Control.
Teamcraft
It seems like there isn't a rotation for this item
Its the same as any lv70 skybuilder item
Hey guys, Im in the middle of HW post expansion quests right now, and Im a bit confused
am I supposed to fight Titan again in The Navel? A level 50 Trial when Im doing level 60 quests?
Those stats are low for level 70 I think. What kind of gear are you using?
I just wanted to make sure this was the same trial I did before, and not a new one thats level 60
Thanks!
Well I was following this guide, but the macro is now outdated https://ff14.pw/crafter-gatherer/958/
Me
Well get to it then if you want someone to read this XD
I have level 70 gear
well you use teamcraft, put in your stats, use a macro that's somewhat similar and tweak until you get it right
unless your stats are borderline it should be really easy, the previous macro you were using should likely work for example(for 60-70)
I think my stats are borderline
My friend wrote the previous macro but he went to sleep
It's in Japanese though, so I need to translate the skills if anyone can tweak it
sec I'll check it out
Oh, let me try this one
hmm these stats look really low
are you trying to just get the first turn in tier?
or 100%?
do combat retainers have breakpoints for better returns on hunting?
yeah but not sure what the stats are with EW, I think I read 570 or 580 for the best results atm
oh that then
ty
if you pop open garlandtools db
it will tell you what the breakpoints for any given item are
oh cool thank you
you mean lvl 60 gear? your stats are lvl 60
No
and pardon, it's 573
What ilevel?
Just show the stats
Don't need each piece
Now I'm eating food
Go get Handking gear from scrip exchange, its ilvl 350 with way better stats
I don't have scrips
I leveled all the way up selling crafts from the rebuilding
From the Ishgard Restoration
I can easily get to the first turn in treshold but getting to 100% with these stats doesn't seem doable
The macro you linked won't work because I don't have enough CP

well you don't have the stats for that either
I should. I bought the gear in the guide
・作業精度:1004

that's what the guide says, you're very far from that, maybe cause the guide says to buy HQ?

this macro works with your stats, and will get you to the collectable turn in treshold, the first one
can't go any higher
Is this for NQ?
wait we can get the clown outfits now?? how????
it's collectable turn in there's no NQ
jan 20th read the page
Oh
OK, I will try it

it gigves 380 collectability
Come now pyros it's rude to assume people read
which is enough to turn in
Does red mage start at level 30 or 50
50
You end up 10 levels below the previous expansion, hw jobs are different cuz there was no previous expansion, just arr
Is it possible to macro the snap emote + unsheathing the weapon? Like when playing as sage, you snap emote and you automatically go to weapon unsheath mode
30-50 is probably about as much relative exp as 50-60
ARR Jank as I like to call it
/snap <wait.1>
This times the next action with the actual snap
@forest sage I think Manipulation no longer exists? It says it'
I use it for job switching
Lol no
do your job quests
You're skipping your job quests
manipulation is a quest reward
well your website has manip in the macros too
What does lb mean in raids? Someone said in chat now it’s time to lb

this should work
Idk how that works with old macros
It didn't finish making the item
did your food drop?
No
you have 1197 craftsmanship?
Yes
doing the grade 4 stepladder?
hmm guess teamcraft has weird stats for that
cause it shouldn't be nearly that high collectability either
Any macros are pre endwalker
Also probably missing traits and shit from quests if he still doesn't have manipulation
Do them as soon as they show uo
!trate enhanced careful synthesis
!trait enhanced careful synthesis
oh yeah forgot about that
Gfdi
Ok, I'm going to do the quests
na it won't help that's a higher lvl trait
but teamcraft automatically uses it, let me see if I can turn it off, but without it it's gonna be more than 15steps, if you're ok with 2 macros then it's not a big deal

/echo Macro #1 finished <se.1>

that'll work without the trait
can't really make it 15 steps though
is there somewhere i can see where/what my next job/class quest is?
!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.
Your hud
yeah, i have my msq tracker on but it's not showing up? is it because i already finished ew msq?
@forest sage Thanks!
Then you don't have any job quests
There are no real job quests past 70
Not counting sage and reaper
And it'll only show job quests for your current job
Switch jobs to see that jobs job quests, if they have any
hmm, my other jobs <70 definitely still need job quests and yet they aren't showing up? like, i am on a job quest right now and even that isn't showing up
oh okay i found there was a setting that turned off the tracker "when all quests complete"
uh?
I know i asked this earlier but which stat is better for bard, determination or skill speed?
Det
ty
you didn't copy both macros I'd guess?
I did
That would do it
I'm not sure you have them right cause there's 4 careful, and clearly on your screen you only did 2 careful since they give 270 each and you're at 540(with 20durability left for another 2)
first macro ends with 2 careful, 2nd macro is just 2 more careful
4careful total which should finish
although it seems your food did drop now cause you're short on collect and careful should give 301 with the stats I saw earlier
you may want to take this to #doh-dol-lounge instead of continuing to talk here
I don't see that channel
it's still questions and help anyway, since it's a problem
can you KB immune the knockback from the PBAOE during predatory avarice in P2S?
I did role selection
You need to get the DoL/DoH role
btw take a screen of your log before it ends the macro, like large log box
not sure why it'd stop before the end when it's fine on CP and durability
@strange coral ty
I can chat in that channel if it's a problem
@forest sage I think it worked. I just stopped macro 1 too early!
k should be fine then, make sure to eat food again or you won't have enough stats for collectability, can probably tweak a bit to do it without food but might as well buy a few food and do it during that time
is there something important im missing with farming enemies for drops? all of the EW ones are dropping extremely slowly. 30 minutes of killing in a cycle for a single hide
is O12S cheesable with a party of 90s? 🤔
Not really
You can buy drops with bicolors from fates which are way more consistent
makes me wonder why even have normal drops, its just a waste of time
Both is good
ive been testing it out and its like chaining the enemies together slows ur drop rate
You know what anecdotal means?
And secondly the chain is for exp
Remnant of old ass systems and still used for blu
Can i revert dialogue? i skipped over 1 line by accident
ive been logging how often they die vs when i get a drop, and gaps between me attacking
how do i access the palace of the dead? i finished the houser that death built
No but you can check the event log
Talk to npc in quarymill I don't remember the name
Tons of players near him, you won't miss him
Wood Wailer Expeditionary Captain iirc
can i buy a 1 level boost
no
It can be if your dungeon queues are long, such as over 15 mins
D:
Pretty sure they only sell level 80 boosts now
that would be useless
Trolling goes in #memes-and-shitposting
Is SMN now actually a really beginner friendly job now?
It's braindead
I mean, recommended for new players
So pretty much
Since you get pretty much all your stuff before lv 30
Levitates some of the "This game's early combat is boring" problem
do they outheal Whitemages ?
Hey guys, I am having trouble with setting up my ps4 controller to the game. It works perfectly on my desktop but on my laptop it isn't calibrating. The game recognizes the controller but when I click on the calibrate start button, it doesn't do anything? Any advice? Here's a quick video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ThANI2Eey5g2YUPdkn2iP1bTgntTQgOw/view?usp=sharing
I just bought Endwalker from steam and in steam it say its activated, but ingame the Red Mage quest still tells me that Stormblood needs to be installed and registered. Do i have to do something else ?
did you log out
Go redeem it
also yes, im painfully aware of statistics and probability from my work, its why im asking if theres any actual proof of how drops work (and how they work in parties) or if its just always been a "it feels random" thing
It is random
so all you have is anecdotal proof then, got it
best purple crafter scrip farm?
@warm snow ok, but where do i get that code ? Didnt saw anything to redeem when i started after the purchase
ty
Hope you're not a trial player
no i sadly never really had that chance. I tried this game for a very short time a long time ago, and when i came back 2 weeks ago I did need a subscription
but doenst matter that much, I dont know how long heavensword is, but im fairly sure that I will reach stormblood anyway soon
Quick question about the referral system, if I refer 2 friends and they each sub for 150 days, do I get 10 gold feathers?
Is there a website that has ffxiv art/wallpapers/backgrounds?
do all ranged dps have the same range?
what?
Being far away from the boss will probably put you out of healing/buff range and get you killed/make you weaker
Just because you can be far away doesn't make it a good way to play
i didn't ask
Lmao wtf
Being max range is a dps lost cause you miss buffs
you guys are really good at station the obvious that nobody asked about
What's thee best way to make gil in such a short amount of time?
Wtf lol
Like which job sells the most and such. ;-;
There's no answer
Why're you being an ass just for a free tip
The repeatable bonus being the 5 gold feathers then? Sorry bit confused
All of them
You need all to make a net positive
depends on your server, check the market board and buy mats that are cheapest
I never knew that tbh....
right now
@ level 90 alchemist probably makes the least amount of gil
cause pots are always high quantity low profit margins
but you still want all your crafters @ 90
for pre-crafts etc.
Okay thanks for the thorough explanation, is there like no minimum for the first 5 feathers? Like do they just need to buy the game?
Okay
Thanks for the help
RAF codes need to be entered after the person buys the game but before they begin their subscription
So there’s a 30 day window where they are able to use it. Right now, however, players who fulfill those precise conditions are few and far between.
do the ostensible maps have differences in their portals other than the 100% chance?
like, higher chance of getting sweeper protection?
has anyone suddenly got audio muted just for ffxiv before?
halfway through the dungeon and the audio just cut off and stay muted :\
It happens from time to time. The only way to fix it that I know of is to restart your client.
damn time to time
yeah just asking to see if theres a way to fix it, dont really want to restart the game and go back to queue
thanks
Ye I got that issue faorly often. Either music or sfx, it's quite annoying, usually restart the game or windows is the best bet
Dumb question but.... is it not possible to level up Lyre as a trust avatar? I can only select from 6 avatars in the trust system.
So ShB trusts is just the 6?
7 later on, but yes
Yeah, not in EW yet, unless there's one more for ShB I've yet to unlock?
anyone here a tech guru?
why does my final fantasy XIV client often get disconnected from the server (coeurl) whereas other games that i'm playing just lag a bit then are able to reconnect without the game crashing to desktop?
i do occasionally experience momentary fluctuations in my internet connection (lasting less than a second) that is out of my control, but only FFXIV crashes but no other multiplayer game does (even when it is running concurrently to ffxiv)
So 7 Trust in total, which is able for you to run full Trust in EW trial
so under new fishing, how do you set gig heads?
are there anything like that still?
You don't anymore
It's just not a requirement anymore. There's no more "use the big head for this fish" type stuff.
Aight, thanks for dealing with my silly questions XD
sweet
halfway through SB, and kinda getting sick of all the filler so far. i'm a couple hundred hours in, and my morale to keep progressing is almost gone. what are y'all's thoughts on skipping and just watching recap/summary videos on YT?
this is the quest that pushed me past the breaking point 
question, if you already cleared savage this week and join a pug and they still have chests can you roll on it? I guess not
(SB)
Generally most people aren't going to recommend skipping if it's your first time doing the story
No
ty
is there any way around all these filler quests? i'm just so sick of them
StB: game of throne but kinda make sense
Treat it like ARR in the role of setting the world building, it's important later on and even in EW
No. I will say that zone does get better (imo anyway)
It's better than ARR tho
It's home to one to the best solo instances

Azim Steppe has its own flavor and real unique

Is it hard to get an apartment in this game now?
do we always only get 2 jobs per expansion ? i know he had 3 i think but i also think that the next one will only have one job
It seems they are also limited like houses in number. So didn't know if they would all be full
Yes
ok idk what the other will be but i know one of them has got to be a caster
They haven't said if they'll go down to 1 yet
Also, is palace of the dead a good way to train for non level 1 jobs? Doesn't it start you at level 1 regardless of job and level you up as you go?
Floor 51 sets you to 60
Like if I want to learn DRK can I play DRK in Palace of the dead from level 1?
Yes
what does the setting "character turn speed" do exactly?
from 0 to 100 it doesn't really change the speed which my characters turns
Affects turning with keyboard/controller I believe. Not mouse.
hmm..
i notice no difference
it would be useful with reaper since the teleport is so responsive
if you turn and use teleport instantly your character is still in the animation of turning and it teleports you else where
had multiple tanks afk today cause they were mad I lifegripped them forward (towards the next pull)
how do u deal with bad players?

If I yoink them they will 🙂 @green grail
there's a point in the ToS about enforcing a playstyle on a player, so like pulling them forward in a dungeon 
you wanna tryhard in the most casual content you're gonna have to do it at your own risk really
well they are forcing me to go slow otherwise so
pls dont force ur slowness on me
thank u
ya im fine with dying cause I went too hard
im not fine with falling asleep single pulling 🙂
how can there be a line in the TOS that tells me how i can and cant use my abilities xD
disable dx11 maybe
Your gfx card might not be compatible
its a common error
update drivers etc
I found something on google saying to delete the config file located in MyDocuments/My Games/FFXIV/ffxiv.cfg. Other solutions are rolling back on gpu drivers (if you've recently updated gpu drivers) or turn off/reinstall directx
You should be able to launch on dx9
fastest way to farm level 50 fates? is it blue mage? does it take long to level one to max
blue mage gets bonus xp from overworld mobs but not fate mobs
ah okay guess ill level one then. trying to get memories of dying for shb relic wep
Blu would be best for that
but anything works
since it's guaranteed if you get gold
The method that people like to use for leveling BLU is to get a high level friend to tag mobs in like azys lla and you finish them off
any guesses?
Fastest way is prob just to bring more players so you dont have to solo a ton of fates
since blu gets the overworld mob boost
you can go in and leave without penalty for those
which alexander raid was it that i farm for light for anima weapon?
A9S
thank you
which one is 9
yeah
what's the emote where you fall to the ground in despair?
unsync it with the weapons equipped
and you need around 20 runs on average
less if you get the light bonus
probably /playdead
which is from online store
If you have a friend who'd be willing to slap overworld mobs for you for like an hour or two
you can go to Amh Araeng or Kholusia and slap the lvl 70 mobs with Flying Sardine (easy to get spell in la noscea) and then have your high level friend kill them
Just gotta make sure you're not in a party together
so question, what's the rotation for monk since the website that I used isn't up to date yet
!faq thebalance
thx
How much time will it take to hit 90 from 43?
Is ranking up ARR beastribes worth it?
If you want easy access to dyes and the chance to buy some mounts, sure.
They also have story attached to them.
Some of those dye you can't make.
Is there a way to get exactly 1 exp?
Not really. There's no reason not to go overboard if you're that close to the level cap.
do a fate or something
Just kill some random mob
I'm at level 89 with 71 exp to level up and I wanna be 1 exp away as a joke
good luck 
Okay no that’s not happening
I'm getting close with level 1 side quests
does the cheese method of leveling Blue Mage in Khoulusia still work?
Yes

To maximize loot in Asphodelos savage, it would be best to do with 7 other people who haven't cleared yet right? Otherwise even if 1 person has cleare, just 1 coffer will appear?
How many is it if all fresh?
2
And if I've completed it, I can't get another coffer spawn unless I run with 5+ people who haven't completed for the week? Or something like that?
2 chests if all fresh
you need 8 people that fresh to get 2
If 5+ people have cleared then NOTHING spawns
My friend wants to play, can you buy the game on steam yet?
So it is just run once a week?
I mean 5+ have NOT cleared
Outside of parse runs and helping others
This was to me right?
Yes
No
If no one has cleared: 2 chests
If 1-4 people have cleared: 1 random chest
If 5+ have cleared: nothing
Got it thanks that's what I needed lol
Where can I go to check all of the confirmed features being introduced in 6.1?
Nothing is confirmed except the typical forumlic stuff we all can expect
There's a chance they might delay the new PVP and Island Sanctuary modes the nhuh
Oh final story trial
you mean after this update the story will be completely done?
ah but I can't do new game + yet
In theory that should be next patch, but this is the first expansion launch that has happened since it was added
anyone can confirm if theres a final role quest (unlocked after doing all roles) in endwalker like there was in shadowbringers? c:
Not yet
i was trying to find it haha you say not yet did the devs make any reference to it coming later or we just dont know? xD
they said they will be added in 6.1 and onwards to give people time to level
Yes
wait if you have all jobs at 80 you get a special role quest in shb?
if you completed all the role quests*
yis and its great!
yeah one per role
(though melee/pranged have the same role quest)
tank, healer, physical and magical dps
Ooh
those are added in EW in 6.1
phys is split into melee and phys ranged for the EW role quests
all 80s gets you an amaro mount, though
which is far superior to the all 90s reward ||yes i'm still salty||
agreed tho
is there an lfg channel
how many for e9s light farm?
no, use party finder in game
does gatherer's boon gain spiritbond faster or is it just number of times collected?
a9s* and probably a light party is enough
Hard to tell
is there a filter for items in armory chest for market prohibited ?
instead of going through 1 bu 1 to check ?
Nope AFAIK
Just a s question. Am I able to set a macro that’ll be used after someone does an action towards myself? Like if someone raises me, I’d like to have a macro that’ll show my thanks when I can’t type
no
Darn lol. Thank you
Probably, yes - or very very close. Alliance Raid Roulette EXP bonus is on par with Leveling most times
I mean, you can make a macro that puts a stock thank you message in /party, and then execute it manually whenever you're rezzed (since you're really not doing much of anything else during the animation lock, let's be real), but you can't make one automatically happen reactively like that.

did going for the ishgard restoration mount get any easier in 6.0?
Sort of, ish
Does someone know why I can't see this leve? https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/An_Imp_Mobile
you can brute force macro the expert recipes to a degree
ARR levemetes have more leves than can be shown so if its not available, pick up a leve and complete it to cycle them
is gathering the same then?
gathering hasn't really changed for restoration
How can i level up a 32 DRK when my msq are lvl 63
somehwat easier probably since perception increases yield amount
so you can gather more thus more points
but like still time consuming
do daily roulettes, then spam the highest level dungeon (that is not 50/60/70/80)
has anyone ever skipped thordan's phase changes in minstrels ballad?
Can the duty finder bit of the Duty List HUD element be hidden?
Not the quests, just the finder.
is it reportable if firsttimers to a savage put it in pf as Duty Complete to be carried? Casue that makes everyone waste time
Is there a way to extend/add a slot to a hotbar?
😦
is there anyway to change your voice ?
ok cool
wasnt sure if the hair dresser would do it also
Are the servers exactly the same in terms of game play
Socially.. Uhh idk, people are more open to being friends with strangers in NA/EU opposed to JP
JP also has more raiders usually
JP players are more self sufficient so their economy is also different
Speaking of raiders I plan on starting edens eternity savage soon, how hard is it?
I've only done the first 2, but they deff feel easier than the current tier of Savage in comparison
Its subjective really
Why do my daily roulettes stay at lvl 20, 10 when I’m lvl 56?
for macros, if i need to pause i can add that to the back of the cmd line ? ex: /doze motion (wait.10) ... all on 1 line ?
I believe its <wait.10> but yes
as in leveling roulette being lv 16?
because that is the min level to queue for that roulette
when do NA q times usually level out?
it’s like that because 16 is the minimum level for queueing the roulette
cant even queue rn
i mean you can if you’re willing to wait two hours 🙂
9PM CDT & later
@oak quarry im trial lol
oh rip
did discord just implode for a sec for you too
shit sucks
nice it works good !!
you think february may be theyll open buying back up?
m,aybe
itll be like 3 months at that point
then yeah you gotta play at the freaky hours (aka before 2 pm pst)
maybe not
jumped in around 11:30 and it was maybe 40 people in queue?
My dailies? Doesn’t feel right to use or even do those tho
the min level to queue has no bearing on what dungeon you'll get tohugh
there is no reason to not do your daily roulettes when they're a decent chunk of exp
you get bonus exp based on level discrepancy with the dungeon
leveling roulette being lvl 16 to queue doesn't mean you're going to get sastasha and even if you did, the exp from the roulette's daily bonus scales to the difference between you and the dungeon
so its always worthwhile
so od question, how do you check what your dailys are?
and it’s a CHUNKY amount
wait do i even GET dailies as a trial player?
yes
how do i check em?
in the duty finder menu, (U)
that would be the duty roulette dailies
you can get all of them except Expert and Frontline (and soon lvl 90)
Ahh i see, well hopefully its not pvp based lol
only Frontline is a pvp daily
What’s the BiS meal for DoH and DoL?
Is that a custom ui?
Generally, Tsai tou Vounou for DoH, and then DoL depends on what stat you need
Probably Sideritis Cookie for Perception on Legendary nodes
What do I spend my poetics on if I'm currently leveling classes to 90, so I don't need the gear?
!faq poetics
Is it possible to get urianger's jojo pose on the end of endwalker scene?

nah
Is the auto-demolition for housing active now or is it still on hold?
Still on hold.
They'll announce when it resumes
Minfilia wont let me finish ARR she told me to q for 3 outdated 24 men raids wtf
The quest line for that ties into one of the expansion
It's a part of the MSQ because it's considered relevant to the main story.
It is effectively a main story quest line
It won't take you that long.
If you do care about the story, I suggest you pay attention
If you don't care at all, just do it and get it over with, whining won't get it done
Thanks!
How to gather crystal sand for anima weapon now with removal of yellow and blue script?
Umm how she utilize seraph in dungeons cause idk how to use her well
Blue Scrip Tokens are still available for white scrips
Just treat her like a fairy boost cooldown
And use both Consolation charges as they heal more than the embrace
I usually swap between Fey Union and Seraph for dungeon pulls
So Fey Union one pull, Seraph the next
Ok ty
ok, thxs
Is there a guide or anything for lvl90 crafter gear?
how do I make a macro that uses auto translate?
Tap Tab as you're typing it, same as you would in normal chat
Does anyone know if data center travel means that NA players can hop onto EU/JP/AU data centers and vice versa?
for initial release, whenever it does finally release, it will between datacenters within that region
Thank you
so NA players will be able to travel within the NA datacenters, EU within EU etc
they said that they intent to eventually expand it to other regions
I'm under the impression that we will learn more about 6.08 etc soon
P1S, intemp, if get 2 cubes same color, what's teh debuff, less deff or less attack?
When's that happening?
fairly certain you get Damage Down
Is that a question about crafting it or melding?
I don't think savage gives you Vuln
Well you're probably wrong
They promised info on the sales freeze this week
That's it
6.08 is a balance patch
Damage down or damage down by death
So I've just prepped for the Fashion Report, but it says I can't do it- have I missed it?
Fashion report changes with weekly reset on tuesday
But you can't submit for it til til friday
So the Fashion Report Kupo-Bot is showing is upcoming, not just been?
Cuz the categories are different to what Masked Rose said, so I was worried I missed it
Need some help, so i downloaded ffxiv on a new device and on free trial rn bc of whats goin on. Signed in and my character isnt there. Is the character device locked on trial?
Did you select the right data center?
select the correct datacenter
no, trial characters are not locked to devices, that would be kinda silly
Trial accounts are locked to a single platform however
Does the duty roulette only give seals on its first run?
Once per day
Or if you load it up as the adventurer in need role
yes, it will say at the bottom of the roulette screen if the reward has been claimer, except for adventurer in need bonuses
Thank god I’m tank holy cow
love those less than 1 second queue times? 🤣
😳
Item level 70.
oh
To be fair
Its case name is misleading lol
The name IS level 70

ARR stuff can go up to item level 130, and then HW stuff up to 270.
I don't think the two are worth comparing tbh, seems like a weird and mostly niche question to pose.
whats the strategy for gearing through normal raid? I heard it's not efficient to just need on everything
What's better for cutting a fork or a knife?
if I have 1 head piece and want 1 more should i pass on everything but the head piece
whats better to use Ravager or shire armor

Shire is the best gear you can get on trial
idk what everyone else does, but I decide ahead of time which pieces I want for the week, then I only roll on the tokens for those.
oh ok thanks
At the top of the rotation, when I'm starting on gear for a new class, I'll just need on everything in the first instance I get, and that will decide what I'm picking up.

why is it that sometimes when I start flying it's in slow mode?
It happens when you start auto-running while holding jump
so I need to do those separately, then?
you can jump while auto-running 
alright, thanks
Is there a good discord/ somewhere else for FATES? (specifically things like Chi)
I discarded a mog station item, how do I get it back?
Bit weird how it lets me discard it
But in general you can't get it back
Usually it doesnt let u discard mog items
It also may seem slower depending on the size of the mount. All mounts have the same base speeds, both for flying and for ground mode, so if you have a relatively more massive mount, your adjusted perspective may seem as if you're going more slowly than on a mount closer to your character's own size.
What item level do I need to be for normal pandaemonium?
Same reason that running on a min-height lalafell seems super speedy but running on a max-height malera seems like wading through molasses.
565
yeah, I usually look for the wind animation
Hm okay thanks - does anyone know where I can buy level 89/90 earrings/rings etc?
Vendor wise
You can’t I’m pretty sure
Oh, where do I get it then?
90 dungeons/EX1/aphorism
Also you wouldn’t want vendor rings anyway because normal quality
can a whm and an astro group together for savage content without sage and scholar and be fine?
Player skill is more important than party comp, so yes, but the lack of shields is less than desirable.
ok thanks :)
I wanna get into savage raiding should i just use party finder look for a learning group?
Yes
But look up guides in advance
Most people will expect you to have a rough idea of the mechs
Okay make sense
You can't really wing it like you can in normal content
Well you can but you're also wasting 7+ other people's time in the process so don't
Unless you're all friends
Then it's called Progression 
Lol
I did do EX2 a couple times
Which materia should I put for lvl 90 rdm?
Not spell speed
is the mogstation motorbike's speed boost as fast as a riding map? Or faster? Or slower?
After you get 1 star speed, it's the same
Bike is only good until you get that 1 star or unlock flying
It just acts as if you already have that 1 star
found it
just curious, anyone know why the balance recommends materia IX instead of X for the 1st overmeld on accessories? specifically im looking at bard full crafting gear bis
are gig heads an old mechanic for spearfishing? keep seeing guides mention them but I cant see anything in game about it
yes, with the changes to how spearfishing works in 6.0, gigheads are no longer a thing
The accessories only have 1 normal slot
Their 1st overmeld is the 2nd 36
!item classical ring of aiming
None

is it worth to do 50/60/70/80 dungeon for leveling? or apho farming?
Does doing one lvl 16 dungeon and a lvl 41 levelling roulette gives the same exp with one lvl 16 leveling roulette and lvl 41 dungeon?
Hell's you can get sub 10 runs with a good team
Burn probably as well
Will anyone willing to help a blm out with the drowned city of skalla? I’m trying grind for the caster chest piece.
if a current-level leveling dungeon without roulette gives you 1/3 exp, an end-expansion dungeon only gives you like 1/10 even with roulette.
Alternatively, u can also grind other lv 70 dungeons like Drowned City of Skalla or Swallow's Compass if you're glamour hunting (or in the latter's case, the boss' god damned TT card...)
What level are you? There's a lv 84 craftable chest piece that has the same model (but dyes differently)
In case u want to bypass the RNG grind
Yea I have it at lvl84 but I just want to prices to see how differently fits my character @last mural I’m in coruel btw
How do I trade in my book of skyfirre
I queued for 2nd circle savage on got a small warning that said P1S loot will be forfeit by entering P2S.
Now I have "rewards already received" on P1S because I joined a party that was progging P2S, what's the reason they have it set up this way?
To encourage doing it "in order" and to discourage you from skipping floors
It only even applies to the very current raid tier at the time, though
Ok, that makes sense. It's the first time I've really done savage content. So I should not join my friends doing the floors ahead of me until I've done the precursor floors myself.
Talk to an NPC in Mor Dhona
https://ffxiv.consolegameswiki.com/wiki/Jalzahn
I think it's this one
That being said, if its the 5678 daily roulette. It still gives a decent 20%-30% roulette exp bonus there abouts
Am I locked out of previous savage circles just by entering a later circle first? or is it only upon clearing a later circle?
you forfeit the loot from previous floors if you enter a later floor
You can always just redo fights, but no reward
so you can still enter previous floors, you just won't be able to get any loot from them
and will also render it a 1 chest run
so I can't even practice a later floor without clearing previous floors
is it better to buy ffxiv through steam or square enix
can't buy from either at the moment.
and the answer is it doesn't really matter
just that if you buy one you're locked out of the other
Personal preference

Hello how do i download ffxiv?
!faq download
Heyo, quick question. A friend of mine suggested I should play FFXIV, but wherever I look for downloads or a product, it says that the product is unavailable. Am I misunderstanding something?
currently, free trial as well as starter/complete edition have been suspended
you're going to have to wait until they re-enable them to play
I have never heard of a game being so full that they stopped selling the game itself, that's crazy
@hidden cypress you are very helpful tyhank you
😄
i've been looking for that link for 3 hours nowq
yeah the website kinda sucks
but also you had to have started the game before if you want to play
Am I spacially challenged or is the hallway in Bunker super hard, especially for casters? It's all I can do to stay alive, let alone... casting anything.
does sub end at about the hour when you subbed?
Was there a translation of the recent mog radio? I read something about an announcement of sales next week
Well because usually when it happens, the developers/publishers simply find a way to get more/better servers to compensate
But due to covid and the shortage of servers, nobody can simply bulk up on servers
Like SQenix is pretty small in the competition compared to the likes of freakin GOOGLE when it comes to buying servers
Not to mention, there was no way FF14 could've predicted this huge influx of players. They definitely prepared for EW's release. What they didn't prepare for, was the huge flux of players from WoW coming to FF14.
Damn, unlucky
I mean... technically yeah? But they're mostly lucky.... i mean... like... It's like the meme
"suffering from too much success"?
It was a massive influx in the middle of a post expac patch cycle.
While a global pandemic and microchip shortage is happening.
For all that they've done pretty well to mitigate as much as they can

Hey guys really weird problem, but my hotbar 1 is stuck coping my hotbar 7. Everytime I add or move or remove something on one of them, it happens to the other but. And its only messed up on this Hud Layout. Any ideas?
oh god i have to wait for Heroes of the 2nd
you probably used the arrows to scroll to hotbar 7
no
Oh maybe, let me try
Wait I dont see the arrows to scroll anymore, how can I fix that?
go to hotbar settings under character config
