patent citrus
#

heavy wadi
#

Question... I found the 2015 edition of FFXIV that includes A Realm Reborn and Heavensward for $20. According to this, I'll just need the Endwalker for $20. Will I be missing anything?

foggy lotus
#

If a quests asks me to enhance a weapon with tier 3 materia, while I enhance it with tier 4 materia, does it still count towards the quest? Or is it strictly tier 3 materia

patent citrus
#

if it says tier 3, then tier 3

foggy lotus
#

Damn alright

pure zenith
#

endwalker is 40$

boreal storm
proven barn
#

Gotcha

pure zenith
#

proven barn
#

Thanks guys.

celest snow
#

so i think i've acquired all the eagle mounts from HW EX trials. where is the quest that gives me the firebird mount?

true wren
#

Whats the best way to level from 50-80?

strong elbow
#

What are suggested items to purchase w seals? Besides glamour prisms

strong elbow
true wren
strong elbow
#

My guess

#

Sorry

#

Lol I’m a trial player I should have shut up

zinc orbitBOT
true wren
patent citrus
#

cordial, submarine ingredients, many

boreal storm
#

That of course is assuming you’ve ranked up enough to have those options

strong elbow
patent citrus
#

I don't remember, the gacha box one is new

#

but if you don't have access to those, then just use your seal to rank up

strong elbow
#

Ahhhh ok so basically only thing of value I have access to is glamour prisms lol 😂

patent citrus
#

then just rank up

strong elbow
#

Yeah got it, thank you

barren granite
#

how many peices of fruit usual;ly does a seed / tree produce ?

boreal storm
leaden ginkgo
#

were there any new hairstyles added in endwalker for hyur males?

boreal storm
#

Specifically hyur males? No

leaden ginkgo
#

😦 thx

sweet leaf
#

do you get the same exp doing duties with your Squadron as you would queueing for them normally?

open coral
#

Yes

sweet leaf
#

cool ty

somber burrow
#

whats the best zone in endwalker for FATES inbetween dungeon queues while leveling?

tacit jungle
#

the exp is very similar for all of them, I'd just pick whatever zone has an active group

#

then move around as you get your shared fates to rank 3

boreal storm
#

I mean what level are you

barren granite
#

in order to x breed seeds, do i just plant them next to each other ?

tacit jungle
#

next to each other and pray for luck

somber burrow
barren granite
#

using grade 3 soil ? or does that matter ?

tacit jungle
#

yes grade 3 soil and fertilize them

barren granite
#

kk

boreal storm
tacit jungle
somber burrow
#

oh ok thats good to know

tacit jungle
#

it's harder and more dangerous mind you so closer to your level is good, but it's almost the same exp per hour in any EW zone doing fates

sweet leaf
# barren granite using grade 3 soil ? or does that matter ?

Thanalan soil does increase the odds of crosses.
also one tip, when you plant seeds next to each other, only the 2nd seeds onward will have the chance to cross. for some reason, it won't work on the very first seed you plant since it technically wasn't planted next to anything. If you have extra seeds, use a cheap soil to plant your first seed and then replace it after you work your way in a circle around to it

tacit jungle
#

they're all around 200-250k base with gold

tacit jungle
barren granite
#

i would of wasted the first spot then

latent sluice
#

I never thought to ask, but.... do mobs with enclosed circles (I forget the proper term) even allow for positionals?

tacit jungle
sweet leaf
#

you're welcome, also just to spread knowledge, the most important thing is to tend to the crops before they wither. Fertilizing becomes less impactful when the seed takes less time to grow and also the further along the growth is. Fertilizing reduces the remaining growth time by 1% of its current remaining growth time So if it takes 72 hours to grow something, fertilizing immediately will eliminate 43.2 minutes, and then fertilizing again exactly 1 hour later will eliminate 42.16 minutes, and so on. It's most important to fertilize as often as possible in the first day

No there isn’t

tacit jungle

#

ah, okay. good to know, thanks

barren granite
tacit jungle
#

Or I suppose a better way to word it, the entire circle is both flank and rear

latent sluice
tacit jungle
#

just because it got lost up there :p ....

#

If I do a home world transfer when they open up, I have to adandon my house. What happens.... to all my furniture. Does it get mailed back to me or do I need to find storage space for all 300+ pieces of it

#

and I assume I need to leave my apartment too

woeful raft
#

how helpful is it to get gatherers up before starting crafters 1-90

twilit arch
#

if you're transferring to a standard world, you have to relinquish both house and apartment before you can transfer. if you're transferring to a new /preferred world then ```Bonuses for owners of personal housing/apartments

Personal housing

Reimbursement for the full price of the estate, plus compensation of 3,000,000 gil for non-recoverable furnishings

* Please apply for a Home World transfer after removing your estate hall and furnishings, but DO NOT relinquish the land. If you have relinquished the deed to your plot, you will not be eligible to receive the bonuses outlined above.

Apartments

Reimbursement of the 500,000 gil price, and compensation of 500,000 gil for non-recoverable furnishings

* Please apply for a Home World transfer after removing your furnishings, but DO NOT vacate the apartment. If you have relinquished the rights to your property, you will not be eligible to receive the bonuses outlined above.
tacit jungle
#

no it'll be to midgardsormyr. not new or preferred

#

but do I have to extract all my furnishings and stuff first or does it get mailed back to me like an auto-demolition

twilit arch
#

so then you need to relinquish your house and apartment before you can apply

#

you can't relinquish with furniture in the house/apartment

spiral mist
#

There is this crazy helmet I found by accident and I think it’s called Odins mantle? It’s black with huge horns on it it looks awesome but I can’t find enough information on it to see if I can use it in my summoner or how to get it

leaden ginkgo
#

they for sure are taking stolen keys

#

also i like if i buy a game on steam and i dont like it, complete fast refund, cant do that if u buy outside the platform

crimson topaz
#

Is there a way to dispell glamours all at once?

leaden ginkgo
#

while on the topic of glamors, is there anyway to make presets for when your gear rapidly changes?

raven sage
#

You just need dispellers for each piece you want to remove

regal pawn
#

which you make at an inn or a barracks
at the glamour dresser

crimson topaz
#

You mean the ones that im currently wearing or with my inventory as well?

raven sage
#

What you're currently wearing

leaden ginkgo
#

can you u switch em out on the road?

raven sage
#

There's no way to remove glamours all at once from your inventory

crimson topaz

#

is it important to know the coil story for shb ew and so on

#

i never listened to the story and im gonna do ew now someone said i should brush up on the coil lore

clear garden
#

So I know that when you kill for example p2s, when you go into p1s, you cannot get loot from p1s anymore (except the tome I think, right?)

But does it also mean that when you zone into p2s, even when you DO NOT kill p2s, you get locked out of loot from p1s?

twilit arch
#

The moment you enter p2s, you forfeit loot from p1s

clear garden
#

Ah fuck.

#

Thank you :D

tall nest
#

What should I be doing after the Heavensward main story, before the patch quests? Apparently I should be doing some alliance raids(?), ||Alexander and Warring Triad|| but I don't know what the right order is.

#

if I'm trying to farm a glamour from a dungeon unsynced, is it possible that the best method is just rushing first 2 chests then resetting instance because it might be faster?

that would invalidate the point

could just farm the books to get the gear

ahhhh

fallen niche
#

The only fates on anemos

stone sky
#

ya, that was my question, if you got a book if you had 4- people who cleared but you haven't

glossy flare
#

yeah the books are a weekly clear reward per person

regal pawn
#

yeah

#

so you would still get the book
provided you haven't cleared

glossy flare
#

you still can't get more than one book per week

regal pawn
#

just there wouldn't be a chest

stone sky
#

does that mean in 1 chest clears, people who have cleared already can't roll on loot? how does that work

regal pawn
#

yeah

#

if you cleared, you can't roll on anything

#

that includes the mount

glossy flare
#

in savage you get one chance per week to roll

yes, you have to clear them in order

it's right next to the aetheryte, yeah

in radz ive none

fallen niche
#

So I just read the new news in terms of the data centers, do we know what exactly they mean by "logical" and "physical" data centers?

tidal yarrow
#

so let em see

regal pawn
#

check Palaka's

glossy flare
regal pawn
#

logical - Chaos vs Light

glossy flare
#

for example all NA dcs are in Cali

#

logical dcs are the dcs you can pick in the game

regal pawn
#

Chaos and Light are different logically, the same physically

Primal and Chaos are different logically and physically

open coral
glossy flare
#

like Primal, Crystal and so on

fallen niche
#

so basically when dc travel finally launches, if someone is in primal, they can travel to crystal and aether but not any EU data centers

regal pawn
#

yes

open coral
#

Correct

fallen niche
#

aight. cool.

regal pawn
#

And as it stands, whether they make cross-region available is up in the air

#

Mainly due to economic differences

tidal yarrow
#

once unlocked sky stone sea where is the npc located?
i believe i already have done the quest

regal pawn
#

Palaka's Stand

#

Palaka's Stand.

#

do we know if it'll have a new xp boost for setting your homeworld there like a road to 90 buff or nah

regal pawn
#

yes

#

faint flare
#

It's literally the same buff

regal pawn
#

all new worlds have "preferred" status

#

because they're new

#

and unpopulated

#

You just also get a moving bonus of 10 silver chocobo feathers if you transfer

#

Or 1M gil upon reaching level 30 if you create a new character.

faint flare
#

And housing compensation for transferring

twilit arch
#

keep in mind you do not get the road to 90 buff if you transfer

#

you must make a new character for it

#

melds are ignored when sync'd anyway

obsidian patio
#

Level 50 content being i130, 60 for i270, 70 for i400, and 80 for i530

open coral
#

That's why you'll see people with identical HP numbers in synced content.

dapper oyster
#

Best possible stat? Like its possible to cap crit if i go into haukke manor with level 90 bis?

obsidian patio
#

You don’t need 90 gear for that

narrow jay
#

You always get downsynced so it doesn't matter.

open coral
#

Best possible for that level

obsidian patio
#

Just 50 gear would do

open coral
#

So as if you were in full Ironworks gear.

#

If it's level 50 content.

obsidian patio
#

Haukke normal would be best possible level 31 gear/stats

faint flare
#

stats are brought down to specific caps relative to the ilvl for that duty

#

Anything higher is meaningless cause it's already over them

open coral
#

There's no relative scaling. That's why you'll see people of the same gear types with identical HP amounts when you're synced down.

#

Because it's a fixed number.

#

Substats are the same. Fixed numbers.

dapper oyster
#

I was expecting something like...
Lets say i have 1400 crit
Then i entered this haukke manor, my stat reduced to lets say 400 crit
But that 400 crit actually has like 90% crit chance or something in haukke

faint flare
#

Ie: if Vit caps at 100 for that duty on gear, any gear with 100 or more vit will give the same hp

obsidian patio
#

No

open coral
#

No. Because again, it's not relative scaling.

#

It's fixed scaling.

faint flare
#

Each level has its own stat tiers

dapper oyster
#

How good is this fixed? Is it something like maxed crit chance?

faint flare
#

400 at low level is the same as whatever its relative at high level

#

No

dapper oyster
#

Why am i this dumb yoshifacepalm

open coral
#

No. It's as good as you can get at that level with dungeon/tomestone gear.

#

That's it.

faint flare
#

You can never get 100% crit without mega stacking buff

#

It's very straightforward

#

Gear is brought to specific stat caps for that ilvl

#

Each level has its own stat tiers that determine how good each stat is

open coral
#

Everything scales, including relative stat values.

atomic jewel
#

How do I share hotbars and settings between characters?

obsidian patio
#

You’d have to go into the files and copy/paste from there

dapper oyster
#

Is there anyway to make all crafter skill bar to look all the same?
Mine looks like a mess and i got no time to drag the icon one by one again

tranquil stream
#

If I have a trial account with a character on Primal, will I be able to move them to Materia when it opens?

obsidian patio
#

You need a full account to use the home world transfer

dapper oyster
#

I mean i could just screenshot the skillbar from one crafter thenn change into other and put them in to be the same but it sounds like lot of work

obsidian patio
#

But besides that, yes

heavy wadi
#

1 second

#

/hotbar copy GSM 1 current 1 /hotbar copy GSM 2 current 2 /hotbar copy GSM 3 current 3

#

just put that in a macro

#

lay out gsm on hotbars 1-3

#

and then run that macro on each other doh job

#

Hello, im getting an 601 error when trying to renew my sub, anyone know a solution?

heavy wadi
#

you either don't have enough funds or are entering the wrong payment info

quick ibex
#

How soloable is A8S at 90?

faint flare
#

Still impossible

#

You can't kill it before gavel/the pentacle resolves

#

You need to burst it down in like....a very short amount of time

heavy wadi
#

vinyl

#

that's the wrong fight

faint flare
#

A8s is brute

heavy wadi
#

though probably requires a lot of lucky crits and skill

quick ibex
#

Yeah I tried it on rpr initially and I got to the end yet I had no idea how the fight worked so I fumbled around

#

Honestly the maiming top just looks real nice

faint flare
#

If it's rng on that many factors then yeah

#

Literal crit rng, dashes etc

heavy wadi
#

just get like one or two fc members or friends to help you.

dapper oyster

How do you enter Delubrum Reginae duo/solo?

#

Can't find the raid in the duty finder list therefor unable to set it to unrestricted, NPC only allows me to queue up with matchmaking

faint flare
#

Wait 10mins

#

And it puts you in with whoever is qued up

#

Regardless how many it is

stark sleet
#

You know how you can hold both mouse buttons to run forward? Has anyone had inconsistency with this ever since Endwalker release? Or do I just need a new mouse

coarse sierra
faint flare
#

You have to que

coarse sierra
#

Does this mean it will always match make, but it allows u to queue up with different party numbers?

faint flare
#

And then you enter after 10mins

#

Which means you can be put in solo

#

If no one is queing

#

Which not many are

coarse sierra
#

What do you do if u keep failing the DPS check boss(queens)?

raven bolt
#

queen has a dps check??

faint flare
#

Pure Essence, dps actions and stuff

#

Pieces

#

Not Queen

coarse sierra
#

Third, fourth boss I believe

faint flare
#

2nd boss

#

The daz/mini boss is trash

raven bolt
#

oh

coarse sierra
#

What if the others who queued up doesnt have it

#

I assume the dungeon scales based on the party number

faint flare
#

Tell them to use it

#

There's literally a box at the start

#

You need essences for low man

narrow jay
# coarse sierra

This sentence is only referring to the party composition when entering. You can queue by yourself (solo), as a party (2-8 players), or as an alliance (combination of two or three parties).

coarse sierra
#

yeah gotcha, thanks

#

These so called essences something u get by farming it right?

#

So players wont have it by default

#

and without it, you can't do it?

warped nest
#

Sorta kinda technical question that might not even have an answer:

Ignoring lag etc, how long does it take for damage number to show up once you successfully pushed a skill? And for stuff with visible projectiles, like fire, do the distance affect the timing?

#

Another way I can see this would be, during attack animation, when is the damage number shown? I assume that the calculation is done at the start when you succeed in delivering the attack?

gaunt fable
#

does this mean rip bozo?

warped nest
#

Rip

gaunt fable
#

the treasure chest uncourteously disappeared

#

oh nvm this one costs pennies compared to the HW inks

warped nest

I have an issue: I can't access the lv90 scrip exchange.

#

I try to find the questgiver but she doesn't give any quests.

true wren
#

Question: I thought the roulette would give you more EXP. I've done them all, for the most part, and I only really got 1 level? That normal?

faint flare
#

Yes

#

Only levelling, msq and alliance give a large amount

true wren
#

Thats more or less waht I meant I guess.

faint flare
#

Frontlines is decent...trials and normals don't give thaaaat much but they're quick enough

#

50/60 etc is shit

leaden ginkgo
#

Why is the Expanded House of Splendors questgiver not giving any quests?

faint flare
#

!faq scripunlock

zinc orbitBOT
faint flare
#

Do all of them, it's a chain

leaden ginkgo
#

I did, that's the thing.

faint flare
#

You can't unlock radz scrips without unlocking the others

narrow jay
# warped nest Another way I can see this would be, during attack animation, when is the damage...

From what I've noticed, this is dependent on both the specific skill animation and the total number of enemies hit and their distance relative to you (for AoE skills)—and then based on whether or not you're weaving skills.

For example, if I'm on Bard and I use Blast Arrow, the damage won't show up until very very late in the weave window because it's waiting to show up until the animation shows the arrows hitting the target. But if I weave EA immediately after Blast, the Blast damage will pop up as soon as EA starts, despite Blast's arrows still hanging in the air.

honest anvil
#

are all auto attack physical?

narrow jay
#

Similarly, with, say, Quick Nock, the damage hits will pop up from nearest target hit to farthest in sequential order. However, if I weave Rain of Death immediately after, all the QN damage hits will jump onto the screen at the same time.

warped nest
#

Yes

narrow jay
#

So tl'dr .... it's funky?

honest anvil
#

and auto are still … max melee?

warped nest
#

If you make your SMN do auto attack, you'd need to walk to melee distance

#

Then your SMN will start smacking the enemies with their book

honest anvil
#

pogianger thanks

queen flame
#

Do the Pixie Wings bound to my character if I use them? Or can I sell them after? I just want to see how they look.

faint flare
#

They're consumed

#

And added to your fashion accessories

queen flame
#

Ahhh, gotcha. Damn, tough choice. They are going for 1.2 mil

warped nest
#

Just so that you won't see quick nock and rain of death number interweave with each other

#

Very acute observation btw

for eureka poetics farming, do i just level up in the zone to do the fate grind in order to farm poetics? that's what i get from youtube video but not too sure what's the proper way to farm

true wren
#

Is scaling weird? Like, if a level 80 does a level 50 Trail. Will they do more DPS than that of a level 50 of the same class?

faint flare
#

No

true wren
#

It sure feels that way, I'm comparing DPS/abilities cast and they're deff out performing.

faint flare
#

You're synced to specific stat caps for the ilvl it is

#

Jobs aren't super balanced at low levels

true wren
#

Yeah, I'm comparing it to the same job as me is all.

faint flare
#

As long as your gear has hit the stat caps for that ilvl you're the same as everyone else

#

Aka if your gear is synced basically

true wren
#

Seeing as how I have Poetic gear, I'd assume that I do.

faint flare
#

Then yes

true wren
#

Then I odnt understand as we have almost identical casts per spell/actions taken.

#

and they still out DPS'ed me by 300~ (at level 50)

faint flare
#

Crit rng

#

That small difference is crit rng

#

Ain't it fun

true wren
#

I mean, 300 is fairly large at level 50. But, I guess if thats it.

faint flare
#

Crit rng is great

true wren
#

Welp

#

So in that case, if they're hitting the Crit Cap on their gear and I'm not

#

that could be it?

faint flare
#

Nope

true wren
#

Just in general.

faint flare
#

Just how crit rolled

true wren
#

Oof.

#

Thats horrible.

faint flare
#

They probably kept critting big stuff and you didnt

When I do the fashion report (I'm following Meoni vid this week) do I have unequip the rest of the gear not mentioned for the top 100?

Its also my first time playing this job, so, was trying to figure out what I might be doing wrong.

restive sand
#

for the fashion report

faint flare
#

As stated

tight spoke
#

is there a tool where I can look at most traded items on the MB?

mellow mountain
#

What is fashion report anyway

#

I don't understand

faint flare
#

Weekly judging of glamour

restive sand
#

so to get 80 points I only need to put two particular items on my unit? And I can just glam it right?

true wren
#

Actuaklly looking at their attacks, they didnt crit at all

faint flare
#

Fit the theme for extra 50k

true wren
#

So, it has to be some sort of weird scaling issue.

restive sand
#

according to this weeks fashion report

true wren
#

That or I'm not hitting that ilvl/stat cap.

fluid cloak
#

Well it's not every slot, just the head, pants, chest and a bracelet

#

I thought it was like every single slot except weapons lol

#

So I should've get the 60k mgp by wearing those 4 items

#

Does that mean I have to dye them too to get to the 60k mgp?

restive sand
#

i want to make sure I don't screw anything up before I hadn in my fashion report. So all I have to do is wear a cotton sugarloaf hat, and have a hand piece died slate gray?

fluid cloak
#

You don't want the 60k?

restive sand
#

i want the 60k

#

i thought i only need 80 points

fluid cloak
#

Then it's more that just those 2 items you mentioned lol

twilit arch
#

no

#

you can get 80 pts with just those two

restive sand
#

ok

#

so jst wear those two, and have all my others eqipped should get the 80 points?

twilit arch
#

mhm

restive sand
#

except the off hand

#

and just the hand piece needs to be dyed it seems

fluid cloak
#

Ok what do you get for actually having everything mentioned for the top prize this week?

faint flare
#

60k mgp for 80+

#

Title for first time 100

fluid cloak
#

Hmm

#

So only equip those 4 items, dye them and no weapons equipped?

faint flare
#

Equip the themed items and the rest of your gear

#

Again. Read the important section

fluid cloak
#

Ahh ok so I can have the rest equipped

#

Lol

restive sand
#

so I should be using a 2 hand weapon?

faint flare
#

Doesn't matter

#

Off hand doesn't count

restive sand
#

And only the hand piece needs to be dyed?

#

not the hat itself

is there anything in particular i should spend white gatherer scrip on? only have Stormblood stuff unlocked at most, so my options seem a bit limited...plus materia market crashed it seems

obsidian patio
#

The fishing bait for EW stuff might be good

#

Maybe SHB baits too

pure copper
#

can i buy those since i havent started the content yet?

obsidian patio
#

Oh probably not

pure copper
#

will VII materia be useful later?

#

seems like hte easiest way to burn scrips

#

even bought the HW scrips token for the books just cuz

obsidian patio

Grade 5 and 4 more likely since you can’t overmeld with grade 6

pure copper

VII is 7 tho

obsidian patio

5 and 7 are a good bet

So, I'm at the part of ARR right before Praetorium, would it be worth to grind for the augmented ironworks stuff before I attempt it or is the gear from the level 50 class quest fine enough?

pure copper
#

it's a pretty trivial instance

#

plus dont u have to finish prae to unlock the venodrs?

analog mist
#

Kk, I think I have enough to buy the sword and shield or like 1-2 pieces of armor so I'll prolly just cop either

#

nah I can buy stuff from them rn

pure copper
#

also if u do both, u unlock MSQ roulette, which is another 500 once a day

analog mist
#

I did castrum once then lvl 50 roulette so now I have 800 tomes so i can at least get sumn

#

Apparently you don't need to do prae for level 50 roulette

pure copper
#

MSQ roulette is different

#

it's just prae/castrum, and a daily bonus of 300 poetics

analog mist
#

Nah I got that too

#

But yeah I think I'll hold off on castrum grinding for now

#

ty for the info

restive sand
#

does the guildheist roulette give GC seals

Those long ass cutscenes are killin me

yeah just found that out

i dont have the emote so theres no error text, it just does nothing for me but target myself

Found on reddit

Anything that uses the confirm key you can't do in a macro, you have to press it yourself, this is to prevent full automation. This would include changing a soft target to a hard target.

oh wait, I see that bloodwhetting has a 400 potency shield

is that the only advantage bloodwhetting has over nascent flash?

Bloodwhetting and Nascent do the same thing

Bloodwhetting is for yourself

Nascent is for a party member

Any priority gear I should go for general casters from Pandaemonium Normal?

vocal elm
#

Is there a good place to find crafting macros for any given level/durability?

astral cobalt
#

if I queue as an archer, then do my level 30 quest and become bard, will I be able to enter dungeon as bard ?

yeah I'm talking about leveling roulette

what wynne said yeah

Is there a way to locate where all your ffxiv files are located? I installed it on 1 ssd then one of my others broke. And now I'm unable to open ffxiv, so something must have been on there?

#

The error I'm getting for reference

ember magnet
obsidian patio
#

That’s something you’d need to math out yourself or ask the balance discord and use their resources

ember magnet
#

alright, fair enough

restive sand
#

wheres a cheap and easy to access place to buy gynashi greens

#

for the chocobos

viscid lake
#

Do triggered Fates have the same 15min timer until the trigger guy vanishes if not talked with, or is it less?

gilded dove
#

did they release any date when the game will be for sale again?

How do I make my chocobo fight?

You can unlock the ability to have your chocobo also be an overworld party member and fight alongside you when you reach level 30 and have completed the quest My Feisty Little Chocobo . As the tutorial states, you do need to feed your bird gysahl greens in order to summon them. Click here for a list of npcs that sell them.

What trees do spec into for my chocobo?
The typically recommended chocobo skill point allocation is to get 4 ranks into the healing tree for choco cure, followed by maxing out the DPS tree. The tank tree does not allow your chicken to gain enough enmity to surpass your own output, so its shelved for last. You can eventually max out every tree, though to level your chocobo past rank 10 you will need Thavnairian Onions

what should i do to level my dps while waitin on potd queue

gilded dove
#

do they think the servers are just going to magically go down? @obsidian patio

obsidian patio
#

They initially paused sales due to overwhelming congestion in server queues

gilded dove
#

but i feel like this would just generate more hype

hidden cypress
#

wouldnt be a very good impression to buy a game then need to wait hours to get on 😄

obsidian patio
#

How you would feel if you bought a subscription game and potentially had to wait several hours in a queue that occasionally shat itself making you lose your place if you didn’t babysit the queue?

gilded dove
#

but aren’t we still going to have long queue times regardless?

#

because more players are going to download the game right? like i’m not saying i’m mad about it i’m just speculating that it’s prob not going to fix the issue

pure copper
#

honestly queues on a lot of servers have quieted down lately it seems

#

i mean, they did have a note saying they will monitor the need to pause sales again

#

and theyre only allowing new paying customers. cant create a new trial account yet

vast hinge
#

the worst part isn't the queue

#

or wasn't I should say

#

it's 2002

pure copper
#

the 2002 was fixed a while ago

vast hinge
#

yeah

#

I'm fine with waiting for an hour to log in

#

I'm not fine with having to be in front of my PC while that happens

#

but I mean, I only had a queue of about 300~ today at primetime on a friday night

#

so I think it's mostly good now

gilded dove
#

hmmm interesting

pure copper
#

yeah aether sarg is like 200 now

vast hinge
#

I'm also on a larger world, so it's probably even better for other worlds

pure copper
#

and it was easily 2k a week or two ago

vast hinge
#

a combination of EW hype dying down + holidays also over

#

I'd imagine

pure copper
#

yeah...if youre not on a big raiding/streamer server, youre probably fine by now

restive sand
#

is it a problem that. my main unit is lvl 32 but im on the lvl 20 MSQ ;p

vast hinge
#

even on a big server it's fine

#

I'm on the second biggest NA server

pure copper
vast hinge
#

the only possible issue is if you want to do your job quest at 30

#

you need to finish a level 20 MSQ first

#

but that's trivial

sudden dock
#

can you run delubrum unsynced or with fewer people? how do you queue for it?

pure copper
#

if you do roulettes and MSQ consistently, you could probably level even 3 classes at once if u wanted

vast hinge
#

yeah, it heavily depends how quick you're going through MSQ

restive sand
#

the classes i want to play are in HW and beyond

#

zzzz

hollow knot
#

When do relics usually come?

restive sand
#

slugging through a BLM right now

heavy wadi
vast hinge
#

in ShB it was 5.25 and 5.4

heavy wadi
#

i wouldn't expect them until 6.15 or later, 6.25 is more likely.

vast hinge
#

it wouldn't even matter much

#

they won't be BiS until the last stage

hollow knot
#

PFs are exhausting, so I've only cleared P1S as it is. I'm only asking because I've never tiered up any relics. This is the first xpac I've been leveled to current content.

vast hinge
#

weapon BiS will be: savage > augmented tome > EX until relic last stage is released, under which it will become marginally better than savage

hidden cypress
#

i just unlocked rogue and to level it do i just do solo potd?

hollow knot
#

What is the Radiant equivalent in ShB? Basically, if I'm not raiding, am I better off hoarding tomestones of astronomy for later patches?

vast hinge
#

do not hoard them

#

they will become more or less obsolete in 2 patches

tropic flame
vast hinge
#

every even patch will raise the max ilevel by 30

#

and release a new tome type

hidden cypress
#

is there something i should do while queuing

tropic flame
#

did you enable all languages in your DF?

vast hinge
tropic flame
#

and yeah its late in EU rn

hollow knot
#

I didn't know they would release a new tome. That's super helpful.

hidden cypress
#

is it possible to start potd from duty finder?

vast hinge
#

the rule is always: max ilevel gear is augmented current tomes + savage gear

patent citrus
#

yeah, just online peak time @hidden cypress

#

which isn't now for EU

hidden cypress
#

where

#

oh

#

so what do i do when not peak time

vast hinge
#

max ilevel -10 gear is tomes, and augmented crafted/alliance raid <-- these 2 become available with odd patches

tropic flame
patent citrus
#

just make sure you enable all DF langauge if you are in EU

#

ohhh I get it, sorry

#

yeah you have to go to quarrymill

#

I thought you start from floor 1..

hidden cypress
#

yeah ill have to

#

but whats the 2nd best to potd since the queue will be to olong

boreal storm
#

Dungeons

hidden cypress
#

with the squad?

#

otherwise the q time will be probably pretty similar

tropic flame
#

if you have people to do it with, sure

hidden cypress
#

like the ai squadron

#

do they do it fast

pure copper
#

squadrons do dungeons at a decent pace imo

graceful sail
#

Whats considered a spawn point? Is it the aetheryte in the area?

pure copper
#

beats waiting in q lol

hidden cypress
#

niice

hollow knot
hidden cypress
pure copper
hidden cypress
#

not your home point but the major city where you started your char

celest snow
#

how do i sell stuff on the market? (sorry for the dumb question)

graceful sail
#

Like when looking to spawn S ranks you need to fly over spawn locations etc

hidden cypress
#

oh lol

hidden cypress
#

theyre differnet for each

#

https://faloop.app/ here shows the ones available to spawn and their locations if you click on them

celest snow
#

ah ok, good thing i have a bell right beside me. ty!

restive sand
#

would i be missing a lot if I just watched a recap on ARR?

vast hinge
#

I've never watched a recap, so I wouldn't know how detailed they are

#

it is generally not recommended to skip MSQ if that answers your question

restive sand
#

yeah, im just a really slow reader thats all lol

vast hinge
#

no idea if this helps, but you can install a plugin that will do TTS

#

if you don't want to read

runic cosmos
#

So the difficulties I know go normal hard extreme but what about all the other ? Like savage unreal or ultimate?

hidden cypress
#

ill just say that i skipped arr and read a recap somewhere and didnt really have any problems with expansions

vast hinge
boreal storm
vast hinge
#

ultimate you have to clear the most recent savage

jovial quarry
#

Extreme and Unreal are equivalent difficulties. Only difference is Unreal is older content scaled up to current level.

vast hinge
#

unreal is something that is seasonal, it's basically extreme content at 50 synced to max level

restive sand
#

from HW and beyond, are there less filler quests

vast hinge
#

yes

celest snow
boreal storm
runic cosmos
vast hinge
#

there is no bahamut unreal.

runic cosmos
#

U would say harder than Eden extreme?

#

Ultimate

#

Sorry

rugged thicket
#

theres no eden extreme either

vast hinge
#

ultimate is considered the hardest yes

modest igloo
restive sand
runic cosmos
#

We did a clear of shiva Eden and that was grueling savage

jovial quarry
#

Normal > Extreme/Unreal > Savage > Ultimate, basically.

vast hinge
#

it's harder than eden shiva just because it's so much longer

#

DPS checks wise, ultimates are actually really lenient

hidden cypress
#

is coils like the level of an extreme? or savage

celest snow
#

then i really feel you. my japanese is the absolut slowest but could be due to not studying it for that long

hidden cypress
#

nice

runic cosmos
#

Yeah I was reading some higher diff raid and that hard enrage is scary

vast hinge
#

eden shiva when released

#

was one of the hardest DPS checks

#

relative to ilevel available

restive sand
hidden cypress
#

urianger

runic cosmos
#

Idk but someone sent a link to a page that had a 11 movement graph for 1 mechanic

restive sand
#

not even grammar wise, it's the magical words lol

celest snow
#

a lot of complicated kanji i reckon?

runic cosmos
#

Where everyone had to be or else wipe

restive sand
#

yep, essentially

vast hinge
#

but when you actually play it, it's not that overwhelming

restive sand
#

definitely good practice though

runic cosmos
#

It was really cool made it much easier to understand the mechanic

restive sand
#

even though no one talks like this in real life

celest snow
#

looking forward to being able to read through japanese news papers but that's a long way to go still haha

runic cosmos
#

The raid leader was awesome he went 1 mechanic at a time and although we wiped a lot it was great

vast hinge
#

IIRC, UCOB was the longest ultimate

#

for a first clear
