Endwalker, as in 6.0, finished the first arc
how long will it take for me to obtain the dyeable version of the lvl 70 job gear from eurika if i just unlocked it?
Should be under the movement tab of your keybinds, I'm not sure of the default key
should be button right of numlock
I say Like 8-10h ish of NM grinding (including leveling in anemos)
the things i would do for a different shade of red hat
Should I save my astronomy’s for next time stone set or buy radiant?
next set will be new tomestones so get radiant, also next set is far away comes with 6.2
Cool thanks!
does the MSQ give enough exp to lvl more than one class to 90?
if you do your dailies, yes
if you do leveling roulette daily, you'll be 90 b4 you hit ShB, so, yes, you can do multiple classes easily
even w/o it, you'll be quite overleveled
damn
i did struggle in EW when it dropped. I leveled one job and was below threshold like 2 times? but i didnt do any dailies on the job so
but if u do the entire msq you'll be overleaveled before EW
i spammed dailies on my PAL in EW and was max around lv 85 msq
Ye the dailies do it
is there any training dummy in EW region?
ye, 1st and the 6th zone
that i know of
ah ok thanks, i think i saw the 6th zone but didnt saw the first one
- scattered randomly throughout housing areas cuz people put them up in their yard
smacking people's scarecrow in their backyard sounds weird... i will just go to summerford later
really useful to have a neighbour w/ one
Would the crafted "Classical" set be good enough to attempt running savage content?
yes
Ah okay, I could have sworn more damage was done attacking from behind 🤔 maybe I should go back to the hall of the novice :P I'm trying to lean how to tank and I still pos like I'm a different class,
the hall of novice is pretty bad actually
only attacks that explicitly state as such will do more from behind
!action chaos thrust
Delivers an attack with a potency of 100.
140 when executed from a target's rear.
Combo Action: Disembowel
Combo Potency: 220
Rear Combo Potency: 260
Combo Bonus: Damage over time
Potency: 40
Duration: 24s
Combo Bonus: Grants Enhanced Wheeling Thrust
Duration: 30s
Effect of Enhanced Wheeling Thrust ends upon execution of any melee weaponskill.
Rear Combo Potency
the novice hall instances will teach you stuff that's long been removed, like tanks being told to swap to single target.
Oh So tanks tuning the enemies away from the party do benefit for same actions but mostly to keep party from being hit with aoes then?
they're good to do for the gear you get since it'll carry you through the first 3 instances but beyond that take em w/ a grain of salt.
I see I see 🤔
Soooo.. I could stand next to the tank as a healer and dps just as of I was from behind huh?
Man they should really update the novice hall
if it wasn't for the boss probably killing you w/ a cleave (aoe auto in front of him) ye
I wouldn’t no some cleave
But the damage is still the same I mean 😂 on the target
Itl be less because you ded on the floor
technically you don't care as healer/ranged, in reality mechanics will probably force you to stand behind the boss
btw this is gonna be a time-limited dungeon right?
defo is toto rak
in which case, VERY terrifying
Where did you find this?

check news
Imagine reading the lodestone
Can't be me (Until I do in 20 seconds)
Probably more solo instance than dungeon dungeon
But looks to be reusing totorak geometry
tbf they've been steadily improving the lodestone, I've been using it more & more as time went on
Im excited for haunted manor
it's just haukke w/ 2 npcs in it that allow you to glam
sadly
Yeah you can transform into npcs and have fun
Including nashu so sky's the limit
Cirinna too so people probably gonna have fun with sadu and little sun
I wanna glam into them, but w/ my gear
I don't think you can do that
not officially, anyway
just fantasia 4head
if only, gib padjal race
hello guys, on p2s, when i died because due to a mistake on a slider,people saw that as grief or intentionally screw up the mechanic, is it considered grief and is it reportable?
no lol
No
im scared to death they might report me
It's really hard to prove that's griefing
And even then that won't be enough for a gm to do anything
not reportable, tho: run as far as you can from that party b4 they become even more toxic
i even apologize for the mistakes, so im good, right?
Even if they report you, the gm will check your logs of actions and chat see nothing and close the ticket
Don't worry
what should I spend my poetic tomes on to make money? I already have the gears i needed
alright thank you very much guys i can now relax
lmao no
!faq poetics
you're fine
@swift pasture I'd recommend doing anima relics before trying to make cash
Cuz they pretty
!iglam mimes is lux
I see, i should find a guide for those then
!faq anima
Tadaaaaa
the only outdated thing is the amount of umbrite and crystal sands you need
from 80 to 60 umbrite+crystal sands at most now
Thank you guys very much!
Gil is like THE very last thing you're gonna do with poetics if at all
how can i check other people archivement
You can't in game
lodestone shows people's recent achievements
i cant see
it's actually private by default
then its private
how to make it public
other people's? or yours
I usually just check via https://lalachievements.com/
^^
is there a way to level up without using rested exp?
i want to save my rested exp for levelling crafters
as far as I know. no
for leveling crafters I got a huge mileage out of the Grand Company Supply and Provisioning Missions. They give a good XP reward.
Does sge kardia proc pld divine veil? Was told fairy embrace does
can you see FC name in dungeons? dont know if i mistakenly turn that off and i cannot find the option for it
No, iirc it goes away in instanced content.
ahh okay
How are the login queues during evenings these days?
as a free trial player I just stopped trying a while back, but I've been wondering if the congestion situation has improved recently.
queues are more or less back to normal i guess
depends on weekend/weekday but its just my experience on light
after getting the moonward weapon, how do I get the next highest ilvls?
it really depends on the server as well
Have there ever been posts written by ingame club owners on all the administration that goes into managing one?
Ty kat!
i580 - crafted gear, weapons only from EX2, accesories only from EX1, pandemonium normal tokens
Embrace is the fairy's spell
Kardia is an ability in the end
Only spells trigger veil
Ah that makes sense
i590 - astronomy tomestone gear (unaugmented)
EX2 for 580 weapon, then raid for anything above that
Which is why buffed holy spirit does it
oh cool thanks -- is panda normal weapon tokens something you get after clearing all of the raids in the tier?
Oh thats very very nice
No
You can keep running that raid til you roll the piece you want
You don't get clear tokens
P4N drops 1 weapon token per week, need 7 for the weapon
Although the 4th fight does have a drop
i600 - astronomy tomestone gear (augmented), pandemonium savage non-weapon coffers/tokens
i605 - pandemonium savage weapon coffers/tokens
so p4n is the weapon token neat
i guess my next aim is tomestone gear then
im still 575 with 570 weapon
only 450 astronomies per week, so consider carefully which items you will buy
Hmm so:
-> Trade in 7 Panda weapon tokens in item exchange for Discal Tomestone
-> Trade in 500 astronomies and discal tomestone for weapon
Or clear P2S and get a discal
About mailbox:
I had 1 unopened, 3 opened. My friend sent me 3 new mails and after that he got an error where he couldn't send me any more. What gives? I thought you could hold 99?
20 items max
Oh I can literally only have 20 TOTAL items in my mail at any given time?
yes
I've heard people saving maps by stacking to 99 so thought that was the limit
My bad then
that was a special type of map
that was in 5.58 for an event
couldnt trade it but could stack it, and it always gave a portal
Oh that one, cool
when would I use reprise as RDM?
!action reprise
Lol never
Now enchanted reprise is for mechanics where you're spending extended periods of time moving and can't fit in a slidecast/acceleration/swiftcast
So it's largely useless
I'm confused. I cleared P1S last night, i got the book, but failed to get any of the coffers
I'm illegible for this?
correct
Does that mean i can't get any coffers this week?
lolwud?
duty complete (weekly unclaimed) means you have cleared in a previous week
yep you cant get any more books or loot from p1s
but not this week
i mean that i can't get a coffer anymore just for clearing the run?
gotta roll high
that's... insane...
yup, you are locked out for the week and if you join a run you make them get less loot
I mean it's still 1 book a floor a week yeah?
yes
ugh... so i gotta pray to RNGesus...
you'll eventually get what you want
how to check ping in game?
List of IP Addresses for each Datacenter
North America
Aether: 204.2.229.9
Primal: 204.2.229.10
Crystal: 204.2.229.11
Europe
Chaos: 195.82.50.9
Light: 195.82.50.10
Japan
Mana: 124.150.157.156
Gaia: 124.150.157.157
Elemental: 124.150.157.158
how do I ping the IP?
Windows: Open Command Prompt and type ping *insert IP Address here*
Mac: Open Terminal and type ping *insert IP Address here*
manually ping these
I'm blind af...
thanks
Did you lose your rolls on the coffers or did you exit without rolling?
Cuz in the case of the former that's just how it is sometimes
The former...
i had decent rolls too, in the low 80s and high 70s
Well, sorry dude but you played yourself
hence why you'd run w/ a static so loot can be distributed w/o having to fight on rolls
Would it be better to start the free trial and after you have nothing else to do, buy the expansions?
depends on what exactly you want to do, but probably
the free trial limits your access to a lot of social features and does not allow you to engage with the market in any way
Just checking if it is worth it to use my money right now or after I reach the max level
if neither of those are deal breakers, then the trial will allow you to play all the way up to 60 without spending a penny
so no reason not to
imo, ye, unless you want to experience the other 3 expansions, the free trial is a really, good free experience (-social stuff)
you're also limited to 60, so you're not overleveled for SB when you buy in
I ask this because of the free time I receive when I purchase the complete edition. I don't want to waste that time too while I'm not actually using what I bought
yeah, sounds like you'll probably want to sit on the free trial until you're ready to progress then
if you're concerned about not being able to make use of the free sub time
yup thats it, thx for the help
Probably if the free trial was available
Which it isn't
Thinking in the future 
is GC seal and company seal are same?
negative
company seals are tied to your free company, and used for free company related purchases
GC seals are tied to you, personally, and used for grand company purchases, squadrons, and other related things
the former are usually called FC seals or FC credits
And gc seals are tied to their own gc
You can switch but your currency doesn't carry over
oh
When do you get first fantasia
iam confused what to do with this poetic tome, guild said to buy armor and stuff then trade it for GC seal
Finish 2.0
Ty
Only free fantasia you get
If you've got Tomestones of Poetics and nothing to spend them on, you can buy gear with it and use the "Expert Delivery" system (which unlocks when you get some ranks in your Grand Company) to turn in unwanted gear for a sum of GC Seals
what can i trade for GC seal? anything useful?
Large variety of goodies
Ventures for Retainers, gear for glamour, materials for certain low level recipes, Cordials, Glamour Prisms, sending Squadrons on missions...
Glamour Prisms, Dark Matter (repair consumables), Cordials (Gatherer potion), and lots of various crafting materials and other things
Lootboxes
(although you'll need to put extensive time into the squadron system to unlock those)
ah
"extensive"
i almost never touch squadron lol
They're a good way to slowly use some GC seals, and are required to get the last couple of available ranks
also some personal fc like buffs
Does class popularity tend to change? I quite enjoy reaper but it seems really popular in party finder.
yep
Reaper'll probably drop a bit less than new healers/tanks do, but it will definitely even out again
Extensive Earth Time, not much ingame time. Just send them on a mission once a day
A fair amount of people will just get bored and go back to their old class/play another
Especially when the other classes get buffed and people stop playing it because it's flavour of the month "oVeRpOwErEd"
how long does that usually take
there are no "popular" class in here, instead its more like "the go to" class
like, sam is the go to class for pure damage, DRG is the go to class for easy play
etc
It's the "new" job so lots of people want to try it out
"class effectiveness will vary based on player skill"
Wow that's amazing; every word that you just said, is wrong
for you maybe, for me thats the way how i look at it
SAM is the go-to class for "I find Samurai fun", DRG is the go-to class for "I find Dragoon fun"
like if i want melee class that is not on the complex side, then i just pick DRG
ah yes, reaper, the go to class for trouble joining parties in PF
In terms of easy play, dnc and summoner are arguably easier but overall its completely subjective.
And as always:
!faq metameme
its all go back to play the class which you find the most fun
precisely
no matter what number the class shows on FFLogs, you will personally be able to clear every bit of a content and find groups that need you
and besides, 'tis a game, if you aren't having fun there's no point
So i just hit 51 and get tombstones (iirc poetics) should i save them
depends on what you'd be saving them for
the game throws them at you and there's plenty to spend them on now
like the best gear you can get from a realm reborn
id use them as much as you can
poetic gear is really damn good
ilvl 130 for ARR
not until you have full 130 ironworks gear
more like, its harder to join parties as a reaper than it is to join as other dps classes because a lot of them already havbe a areaper
make your own party or look for parties without one job per party enabled
doesn't matter if a class has highest dps if I still parse gray anyway
mhm
me in savage, actually xD
the reaper drooling on his keyboard ain't gonna beat the bard that's playing a harp while doing their rotation with their feet
blindfolded
at 400apm
I got Ironworks Weapons for a Tank and a Healer so I have dyable weapons for Fashion Report
you do get decent armor/accessories from the MSQ, but no weapons
So save for ironworks?
spend on ironworks
weapon is first priority
then replacing whatever has the lowest item level
cuz most of your accessories are barely gonna be higher than ilevel 30
it's 5/8 no clear for one chest right?
MSQ gives a ilevel90/100 accessories, one of each I think, maybe get a second ring
!faq savageloot
In a 1-chest clear, the chest received is random
First Floor:
Chest A: 2x Accessory Coffer
Chest B: Accessory Coffer
Second Floor:
Chest A: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer + Weapon Tomestone + Accessory upgrade material
Chest B: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer
Third Floor:
Chest A: Leg Coffer + Left-side upgrade material + Weapon upgrade material
Chest B: Head/Hand/Feet Coffer
Fourth Floor:
Chest A: Weapon Coffer + Mount
Chest B: Random Weapon + Chestpiece Coffer
what is alisaie's job in the end of heavensward?
!faq savageweekly
Chests: The number of chests that drop depends on the number of people who have not yet cleared that week. 2 chests for 8 people needing a weekly clear and 1 chest for at least 4 people needing a weekly clear.
Loot Rules: Every week, your first clear of every floor rewards you with a book (for gear exchange) and the chance to roll on loot from any chests. This is your only chance that week to win any loot.
**Skipping Floors:**Entering a floor without completing previous floors marks you as having completed them, giving up both your book and chance to roll on loot that week.
arcanist
oh 4 people, i see
I didn't bother with anything but IW weapons, but I level up all jobs so I wouldn't have enough to gear them all
where to get arcanist
limsa
Wait so primal isnt worth even using?
Guess i have tons of grinding then for 600 poetic currency
So you'll be able to buy ilevel cap gear for heavensward, stormblood and shadowbringers while you do the patches of those expansions
Not including glamour ofc
daily roulettes give you TONS of poetics if you can do them
Closed the game, trying to open it again using custom launcher crashes every time, using steam doesn't crash, I tried restarting and everything and it still crashes, don't know what to do.
especially 50/60/70/80, Main Scenario, and Alliance Raid
What am I doing wrong as DPS just curious I basically get shit on in overworld content
did you do your job quests
did you bring out your chocobo?
yes
and they're healer specced right
boss fates generally aren't intended to be done solo without any self-sustain
They are maxed out rank 20
for ones that have hordes of enemies, do your best to only fight one or two at a time, especally for expansion fates.
I can kind of deal with it with ranged dps
but isn't melee dps jobs just a tad too flimsy?
they have a bit more self-sustain through Bloodbath
Outside of being super undergeared or accidentally fighting super fates you should be fine
also maiming dps have inherently higher defense than ranged dps
Unless you just don't know your kit
2nd wind and bloodbath being on constant cd
what was the fate you died to
the ones on the moon
That's why brd has iron Jaws at the end of its opener
That's probably Wynne saying they're not omniscient
in case im dumb and don't know of any exceptions
at lvl 84 I don't think 530 augmented poetic is too low
tbh, the stat scaling is pretty shallow for EW leveling
so you can easily do full cryptlurker if you're that unlucky with dungeon drops
you still shouldn't though, if you can help it
so you're fighting at level monsters, all your gear is of a relevant item level, your gear is all repaired and not broken, and you aren't pulling several enemies at once
I guess I'm just fighting too many at once
that would be the natural conclusion yes
I main tank and I'm not used to getting shit on all the time
oh yeah no, DPS struggle a lot more than the other two roles at pulling a shit ton
yeah you got a ton of natural mitigation as tank
given their natural lack of mitigation and/or healing
both from their gear's higher defense stats and level 1 trait
!trait tank mastery
(all tanks have this)
also having tank cooldowns and tank sustain skills
looks at Bloodwhetting
you can take like 2-3 mobs in general, more if you're extra cool
Its usually better to solo them
A few fates have really weak enemies that can be aoe'd
Or if you're a warrior 😏
is there any good reason to clear all sidequest (beside lore / clean map)
no
clean map clean mind
Is there a site to look at all the legwear options for a class that has large pictures?
not even achievment or maybe crappy minion ?
some sidequest chains are tied to content, like beast tribes
though they're generally marked as blue quests
yeah what i mean is the side "side" quest
save the custom delivery in ruby sea
not the blue thing
XP, gear rewards, alternate leveling path...
Its not a good leveling path! but u can do it if you like quests
personally I did 0 sidequests in endwalker but cleared nearly all of the ARR sidequests
the fisher sidequest in limsa right
How bad is the ping on NA as an EU player?
probably around 200-300
P bad, since na servers are on west coast
you can ping the servers
Is it possible to play feast with that ping?
oh are the servers on west coast? I thought they were in texas
I think they were in california?
ah I see. I miss the ARR days when the servers were in Montreal, Canada. I had like 15 ping. it was amazing
server is west coast NA so very bad for EU
Recommend playing EU if possible
200+ ping for sure
just from distance
Hello, free trial player here, I have known that Crit Hit materia is the best for the latest expansion
But for lv60, is there a difference to the optimum materia melded to ilv270 gear?
typically about 180-200 for me from the UK, still pretty playable
me playing with 300 ping on primal from australia 
i haven't tried pvp but i'm playing with 200+ and it's very frustrating to dodge aoe's
when will we get the next gear tier (ilvl 610) ?
6.2

Anyone remember how long it took them to lvl up mining?
roughly a day, diadem is pretty quick levelling
diadem's not good for 80-90, and tbh if you're focusing solely on leveling miner, then i would recommend leves/collectables over diadem
that said, shouldn't take very long to level up gatherers
Can I give someone els my Chi mount that I get to ultima thul
no
Unless you do lvl60 savages synced, unmelded barely affect your performance
also please spoiler tag the zone
Assuming if I plan to do lv60 savage synced, what should I meld if you dont mind for said classes?:
1 - Astrologian
2 - Black Mage
3 - Paladin
4 - Machinist
can just use high ilvl gear.. it will be synced down but materia will be ignored
Lsaac is a trial player
Ah wrong reply x.x
meld dps job then
Rule of thumb is crit > d hit >= det
For BLM you maybe want some Skill spell speed till you reach comfy GCD
Tbh, there is more complicate thing like stat tiering but i am not that expert + idk if old melding guide still updated
Thank you, this is already really helpful, I have seen this before but it just confirms/makes it assuring

Is it OK to share a video I am currently refering?
Sure?
As requested a short video about all the common Stat choices for all Fighting Jobs (Except Blue Mage)
I hope this can help you in getting a solid impression and for getting info about all the Jobs, mentioned in this video, check out my Job Guides:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLQluBMACL0K3AYRjGsnyE796ZEvNHME1c
And in a short version: ...
I am a little confused by the Weapon Damage +1/2 & Item level +20 category, but other than that, is this reliable?
no
anyone got this week's fashion report thing?
!fr in #kupo-bot-spam
I think weapon damage andi tem level well yeah refer to ilvl. Higher ilvl = more main stats which is almost always better cause materia only give substat
Yeah you can use that as general guideline although its outdated for endwalker content
please don't watch desperius
his guides are often wrong, and have a fair bit of misinformation in them
desperius is not even mediocre in 90% of the job he plays
If you're really serious about melding at 60, you should ask people in the balance but like most people are probably going to tell you to not bother
!faq balance
you'll also notice the lack of negative comments since he deletes them lmao
the creator can delete comments?
@upper flame yeah try the balance discord. They'll give even more indepth knowledge. Heck i learn a lot of job rotation/optimization there
thats straight up censoring o_O
it sure is! now you know why we're vehemently against his guides
whats the current state for summoners atm
Is there still some queues in the game?
easy to play lower end spectrum dps
What's the regen rate for GP (and or Mana etc if the same)?
ye for all of 30s on crystal at least
and how about their healer counterpart?
fantastic
great dps, good responsivness, new skills greatly help in prog
i am so vastly overlevled compared to the MSQ, about 20 level above, so im thinking of making another char just for MSQ
you mean another job?
yup
was thinking, catch up with one other job to do MSQ, then have my main just do the dailies
and we gotta go "das not how that works cheif"
the daily roulettes are scaled to your lvl always right? From 15-90?
Just wait until you hit another expansion
the content no, but you'll always get decent xp yeah
just once daily
Lvl 60 is shire gear?
ye
Okay
Is there a website that has ffxiv art/wallpapers/backgrounds?
how long do we usually have between raid tiers?
about 6-8 months
there will be an ultimate in 6.1x tho
so that helps a bit
5-6 months generally, 8 months is extreme but did happen during 5.2 due to covid delays
yeah, and we dont know about the current state of the pipeline too
lower expectations so you're either right or pleasantly surprised!
Thank you Karlwryn and Lexykun \qwq/
Hey all. Can anyone link me to an updated pugilist rotation. I'm new and have no idea when i should be using the chakra charge. Thanks!!
can I increase overmeld's success rate?
So charge before fight and keep using regular rotation??
use lower grade materia
pretty much, later when you level up you get traits that give you meditation stacks automatically when you crit or use party buffs
@green grail Thank you. It seemed a little bit under powered at this point. I'm only level 16 so your saying it will work better later on
is there anything other than this?
no
Is there a specific chat available that talks about the best gear/materia usage/ food, etc.?
!faq balance
not for a while
Am I at least halfway to Hw
THANK YOU!!!
Oh boy
Still got post
you either quit in ARR or go all the way
I mean the story is good, but that costa del sol and the desert was so boring lol
Or you skip like a coward person with money
I mean if I skipped reading and cutscenes I’d probably be at HW right now
Nah
But I skipped ARR like 6 years ago and had no idea what was happening in HW
Not making that mistake again
is it worth it to try to overmeld crafted gear?
ye
Actually I think I skipped HW too haha and only started watching cutscenes in stormblood
thats how you get BiS
Ahhh you missed a truly bliss story
Combat or crafter/gatherer?
Combat
are you trying to push savage or going at it casually/not bothering at all
savage but not hardcore
then don't really need to overmeld
ok thankss, I tried to put bunch but it 17% and below is really hard xD
I have a friend who is trying the game out for the first time. Is there some way that we can get it so the two of us are in duties together? Is being in the same party enough?
yep
The only thing is that you can’t start solo instances in a party
Is it always better to join expert roulette rather than q'ing for those 3 instances individually?
ya 7k gil
not huge but better than nothing I guess? But they are functionally the same queue?
pretty much
I want the mentor queue but you need so many commends
I only have armorer max level, is it worth to craft classical gear and sell them?
if you can HQ them you might make profit, just make sure you know what you are buying and selling
hey how long did it take you to level each dps class?
Wait if im on the the trial, highest i can get is still shire right?
Technically anima or Alex Savage
Think highest is Alexander
But shire’s ideal
Have you not reached idyllshire yet
Then you don’t need to worry about it yet
Ok
anyone know where I can find the list of my ticket numbers in my SE account or mogstation?
Hello, I am leveling a bard through the heavensward MSQ. I know that if I just do the msq that will get me to max level and then some. Since that is the case, should I be using two jobs to alternate through the msq so that there is no exp waste?
It's doable, yeah, especially if you do your roulettes regularly to keep them roughly parallel. Just keep in mind that the level of a quest is the level you have to be to turn that quest in, so there's a mild balancing act needed to do so.
@narrow jay is the total msq exp about enough to get two jobs that high?
Not from MSQ alone, no
But just one job there is a lot of over leveling?
Gotta do your roulettes
I wouldn't say a lot of overleveling, no.
It's not a ton of overleveling unless you have a lot of exp boosts (preferred server, exp ring, etc)
Gotcha. Thank you
Don't worry about it too much. There's no "correct" way to do it. So go which ever way you want to. If exp is lost at the higher level, you can level alt jobs with other methods.
Or unlock one of the higher starting jobs, such as dancer or reaper, and catch it up to where you are in the MSQ

Can all hw mounts be 4 man farmed?
What sorta stuff would I get picking my retainer class as conjurer for ventures? I’ve no crafting class rn and don’t want to sign up for them atm! Never done this sorta stuff lol xD
Yes they should be pretty easy with 4
yeah should be easy enough
I done it with just me and my friend last night 😄
Mob drops
Can you sell them in the marketplace?
Mmm when on PF ppls write macro & waymark, what is intended x macro??
Which ones you going for, I'd like to see what I can do before I sub
hw mounts? all
Only 2 man is heal and dps good?
Yes but they dont always sell for much, its more for crafters so that they dont have to go farm them themselves.
However you can also send your combat retainer out for "Quick Ventures" where they bring you back random items. Expensive Dyes, random dungeon gear for any class, furniture and housing items, etc.
Nah, you need more people for certain fight
I think it’s best off doing it with a tank and dps ^^ or 2 tanks 🙂
Has anyone done the Anima weapon recently? I'm trying to buy Pneumite but Hasmina in Idylshire doesn't have it
isn't that in gc
buy it with 4000 gc seals each
Ohhh perfect thank you ^^
Thank you!
They’re 100 poetics
I know... she doesn't have them
No
Because it's only available for poetics at that point
I need to be on that step?
You unlock it with the step yeah
You can’t buy the stuff until you’ve reached that step
Okay I din't know, all the other items were available
This is why the 2nd time is easier
weird why this is locked behind progress while the others aren't
It’s not just that one
I can buy the ink from the last step
And I could get umbrite too before starting that step
It will only show up in the store when you are on the quest “Best friends forever”
yes thanks
You probably bought the wrong ink
wrong discord or try #video-games-general
Just completed the gladiator quests level 30, where do I find the paladin ones?
!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.
click no 2
if there isn't any, means you haven't unlocked it and have to continue MSQ
basically the whole game, you focus on 2, if there isn't any no 2, you do no 1
Idk how I missed that tho lol tysm
Is there a chart showing raid buff times? I remember seeing one but can't find it
haven't seen one for endwalker yet, but everything is either 60s or 120s now
with some personal buffs being 90s like leylines or riddle of wind
!faq utility
Damn not updated
I swear I saw it updated
There it is @rose holly
(and if anyone wants to update the bot)
Thank you!
So I need the Master Goldsmith 3 recipe book, but I don't see it available at the scrip exchange. Am I missing something?
Have you unlocked master books in general? From talan
the first 3 I think have other exchange things in Mor Dhona
Probably not. lol
Will AF 89 gear have their ilvl scale with my 90 Retainers?
First two
not the third, no. third is just for white scrips
Ilvl stays the same, but the stats increase
So then I should probably buy vendor gear then for ilvl?
fair 'nuff!
Just use the job gear or aphorism gear
but that'll be 10 ilvl lower than level 90 no?
Ah
Aphorism is 570
Heck... how do I get them right-side gear lol
I guess I'll have to buy vendor stuff for that
Dungeon, tome
stupid unique accessories
Yeah but I can't loot dungeon since I'm wearing it right now
should be easy to fill in with moonward and expert dungeon accessories.
Just give them your hand me downs
Then upgrade your gear and pass it down
Can easily just grab accessories from EX1 and fill in the other with either pandemonium or crafted
Wait do vendors even sell NQ90 gear yet?
there is no such thing.
Not until 7.0
Big oof...
the only gear purchasable w/ gil right now is the classical crafted
i580, so equal to gears with tokens from pandemonium normal

probably a silly question, but how often do you actually give yourself the card in group content as AST? probably like never, right? thinking of keybinds (i have a separate keybind for mouseover Play and regular Play)
Only if you have like 1 ranged and you redraw into another ranged card and they already have a card
It's niche
you think it's better to give yourself the card in that instance rather than give the melee dps a 3%?
When leveling low leveling crafting jobs is it worth to make each thing once for this bonus xp ?
also can somebody reassure me what does the WHM 'have' over AST? I'm leveling both at once and from the moment i unlocked it until level 60 by now, AST just has basically the same toolkit as WHM, but better in every aspect, plus the whole card mechanic
only if you really can't be bothered to go do levequests or ishgard or something
For the first couple of levels, maybe.
and the mats are right there in front of you
WHM has Holy, and more personal DPS overall I believe
i'm not enjoying Holy, it's a bit too delayed for my liking
i can never tell the moment it hits something, the animation, the sound effect, all seem weirdly out of sync
it's basically a free defensive cooldown built into your aoe spam though
the stun is like an extra 6-7 seconds of the mobs standing there sleepin instead of hitting the tank
Ok ty. Is there a way to craft multiple of something at once, or at least in queue, so i dont allways have to select it and press synthesize ?
there's quick synth but you dont get extra exp for quality in that case
And you have to get to a certain level to unlock it hand have created the item once already
but if you need like 30 of something to craft something else, just use it
the game will tell you when it unlocks
ok thanks guys
is there only 1 spearfishing gig in the game?
Yes
Is there a way to report ppl aside from blacklisting? Cuz I was getting really annoyed by some dude in my dungeon that kept back seating me while I was tanking. He kept telling me wha to do and what not to do during fights and stuff and it wasn’t just a few times it was like half the time and that includes pulls too like he wouldn’t let me go at my own pace of things
System desk > report harassment
You can report for harassment in the support desk, but honestly that sounds more like a blacklist and move on type of thing
Yeah I’m just gonna BL but I was super tempted to take it further cuz it was affecting my gameplay
How much damage down in savage? Is it stronger than death debuff?
Varies on fight
I see
can you make a glamour plate with "no glamour"?
What do you mean by that
how hard is arr relic
Not hard, just very time consuming
instead of applying some item's glamour to that slot, you remove any existing glam
No
i dont dont poetics for it ?
That’s anima
There's a button on the glamour plate that does that already
so i can complete it in one day ? arr relic
oh
You’ll need glam dispellers on you
i guess not
If starting from step 1? I highly doubt it. I only did one ARR relic and it took me a week, putting several hours in to it a day. But I suppose I might not have gone about it efficiently.
oof
Not even anima is a one day thing
Because you’d have to get all the materials beforehand
you can do anima in one day if you already have the mats
ok thanks
Hey, I'm currently lvl 54 and according to my action tab, I should have access to Broil (I'm scholar) but if I drag it on my action bar, it is still ruin from level 1. I'm not in a dungeon but in open world. It confuses me a little.
Do your job quests
if I queue as an "adventurer in need" role, but when I enter it switched to another role, do I get the bonus ?
!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.
It locks in when you que
You literally can't.
It’s based on when you queued
It's impossible.
thanks
story quests it is then
Question, how long does it take to run the Aetherochemical Research Facility?
Thinking of spamming it for Poetics instead of MS Roulette if its short enough
@faint flare Thank you!
Hey uhh
I feel like I asked this before
But I picked up a wondrous tails this week and didnt manage to complete it, I can still complete it next week AND get next week's book too?
Yes.
You have 2 weeks to do a book
but i cant hold 2 of them at the same time
And since you can only pick up one book per week, the method you described is how that would work.
ok thank you
In fact, that was how quite a lot of people pushed classes ahead in levels when EW dropped.
interesting, pre-pre
But I guess it doesnt really matter since msq gives your first 90 for free
You still get other things from WT
I mean ... it gives you your first 90 for the price of the time you invested playing the campaign.
But there were people who invested said time leveling classes to max in BSF/Z.
Doesnt make much sense to me to do it that way but hey do what you want!!
I'm about to flip my lid. Is there a fucking way to get Search for Item by Gathering Method or at least Copy Item Name to show up on every fucking context menu when I right-click an item?
Tired of not being able to copy an item name of search for gather method from my fucking inventory.
because amaro mount is cool who doesnt want their own seto
6.08 is the end of jan?
You can link the item in chat, then copy it/search for X
Yeah that's what I've had to do
and it's aggravating
I guess there is no solution other than work around
You sure you can’t just right click the item in the inventory, because that’s how I do it
how do i access the scripts and splendors for rhalgr reach, i have a lv 74 crafter but they keep denying me
!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)
You do all of the preceding ones?
you do need to do the prequests i think arr ishgarde etc
Ishgard
The market place, jeweled crozier or whatever
ty
What's the toggle walk/run key on keyboard?
Mine is num+/
What does "Observe" do when crafting ? Or Better for that do I use the step counter ?
also lets you skip a step for a low CP cost, useful to skip Poor on Byregot if you have spare CP
I mean 60 onwards, I'm level 65 I need some gear for that level - Ishgard is 50 to 60 it looks like
What's the savage loot rules again? If I clear and get no chest, I still can only get 1 chest on the next run?
No
On expert crafting you want to finish quality with a byregots blessing on good
if you clear you're done for the week
You get nothing
Kugane
Nope
Yup
Yeah well all I got was the book but I didn't get the drops
But like nq gear isn’t good, you’re better off getting dungeon gear
I didn't win any of the rolls
how the hell did I manage to press that by accidednt
yeah that's gonna happen
Well too bad
So if I try again, I get nothing? For real?
that's why you have books and tomes
You get nothing else til tomorrow
thanks
you are locked out of loot for the week, for savage
You get experience
the books are your fallback if you get super unlucky with roles
That's ...
between books and tomes you usually get BiS in around 2months, or close enough to
That's kinda fucked
That’s Savage
2months is really not a long time for BiS in a tier that will take about 8months
Among other things it's to stop people fully gearing most of static in a week
with bad luck and many savage drops in your bis it can take longer, but you can hit max ilvl at least
Still though
it helps keep savage populated for a while
you have 4 fights to get loot from, if you were guaranteed a drop every week from each it'd be so stupidly fast
Also stops people feeling the need to spend all day in savage
Heartbreaking
can you do crystal towers unsynced for loathsome memories?
No
no
You’d need 3 people minimum also
you can't do any of the resistance weapon steps unsynced.
Wonder if they'll change that
If I buy tomestone gear at level 60 will it last me until level 70?
Largely yes
does trial roulette or normal raid roulette give more exp?
Dungeons will drop better gear at 65 but you'll be getting a full armor weapon set from your 70 job quest before you unlock 70 poetics gear
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Both give shit exp
Neither one really give all that great experience.
im a new player what is the best subclass to start using like armorer or blacksmith those kinds
Best crafter: yes
You’ll need multiple if you’re gonna make your own gear
And by multiple I mean all of em
No
The standard recommendation is level all of them at once
Cuz needing multiple levels of crafter gear adds up fast
Like 5 lvls then gear, 5 lvls then gear etc
okay thank you for the help
Do silver and bronze reward count towards FATE rank?
Whats the best website to check where i can get items ? The database on the official side is annoying as it doesnt find items with the search button
E: To see how i can craft, buy or farm it
you need gold rating for it to count towards shared fate ranks
lame, af
It’s very easy to get gold if you’re in a fate party
Hello where can I exchange the old tomestones for new ones?
thanks
do I lose my Maelstrom rank if I join another grand company? and then can I rejoin Maelstrom at any point?
maelstrom rank stays
but it's "paused" until you join back
and iirc there's a... 60 or 90 day wait before you can swap your gc again
You do have to get back up to 2nd lieutenant before you can swap again
that too

It's less of a grind if you max out your seals before swapping GCs.
Unless the game would take the currency you earned away the instant your limit changes to match your new rank. I wouldn't think it would, but I'm not actually sure.
Why do you have to purchase a separate version to play on Mac?
Can't you just install the launcher and play on both platforms?
The mac version is developed by a 3rd party
I assume due to contract stuff they are sold separately
Most things have separate downloads for if you’re windows or Mac
Is there a way to make it so it only auto advances speach bubbles during voiced scenes?
Guess I got spoiled by Steam. So there's no discount if you already own the game?
It's dumb having to turn it off and on
No, you’re rebuying it for the new liscense
Can someone give me bis info
!faq balance
That's really stupid. With a price tag of 10/20 bucks you could make an argument. But now you're just paying for the same game data twice.
Not likely, and we wouldn’t know. We don’t work for Square
Nah I'm done with complaining done.
How would it run on a 16 inch MBP 2019 Radeon Pro 5500M? Because I assume there's no mac benchmark ofc?

We do know, remember
When buying dark matter for repairs, is it wise to buy 99 of all of the grades 1-8 ?
To save some cash on lower lvl gear?
Maintaining compatability with good stability across at least 3/4 platforms so far isn't free
If i use grade 8 dark matter to repair my gear at level 20, will it use less dark matter compared to if i used grade 2 dark matter?
That money I spend on the windows license wan't just for the client. It's also for the game data (models, scripts, sound files)
I wouldn't mind paying for a mac client. But they're also asking you to pay for the data again that is exactly the same.
how long do feast preseasons last im just getting into pvp now so im wondering
youre paying for it all to work on a mac client, diesel is worthless in a petrol car, you need the processes to actually run your platform of choice. nothings stopping you trying to run ff14 through a windows emulation on mac
it'll still use one piece so it's technically more expensive but easier on your inventory
pvp gets a big rework in 6.1 and it will change a lot with new modes etc.
accidentally equipped a glamour plate. how do i remove it? xd
I thought they meant sale as in discount
oh neat thanks
It's not letting me allocate stats on my anima weapon
Glam dispellers
I don't view it that way but let's not have a discussion about that here.
are they obtained through the market?
Yup
ok ty!
Or alternatively
You don’t have any treated sand
Have a glam set of tour current non glam set
So you can always glam it back to normal
Hello everyone I just joined this server! I have a question what happen when you do new game+? Because I sorta rushed with the main stories which was a big mistake I should have take my time lol
^ i found it easier having 2 sets of gear than stockpiling dispellers
Thats exactly what NG+ is for
It just let's you replay the story
You just redo that part of the story with no rewards
What job gets their job gauge the latest? Is it DRG at 70?
So I've been trying to grind my shb relic as I level alt jobs in zadnor, I have the steps where I have to do 30 fates/CEs in the 3 zones. Problem is Bozja is pretty empty and there's not more than 8-10 people per instance. While I don't need any more to be able to do the fates, the CEs never seem to pop at all
any advice?
Oh okay I understand, Thank you!
Are you talking about the quest For Want Of A Memory?
Spare Parts / Tell Me a Story / A Fond Memory
Do the GC priority seal allowance items affect GC turnins?
So, the alternate method for those quests is to run various ones of the 8-man raids. If the CEs in Zadnor aren't popping, it's because no one is in the zone, since they're based on the frequency of Fate completion in the instance. So although the raids might be more tedious, in this case they may be faster for you.
or is it just for adventureer squad/challenge log?
I do, it's been assigned but won't let me allocate it
Any suggestions for fast clear raids in these? don't really look forward to 20-25 runs each
What I suggest is to pick out a few of the raids from each tier you like doing and which will get you the drops you need (so, from the 3/4/7/8/11/12s), and just queue for those repeatedly.
!what to buy with poetics
!faq poetics
thanks Xd
I think E12N I've run so so many times I definitely don't want to see it again
They're normals, so they go pretty fast once you're in them, especially with gear carrying you. The long leg is going to be the queue time, so if you feel confident going as tank/healer, go for it, otherwise I'd queue for multiples at a time and find something you can parallel path.
If you already did the role quest for dyeing gear at 90 for another class role, why does it show I still have to complete a quest to dye it on another class of the same role?
Like I got the tank one done for example on one tank but it says I still have to do it on another tank
I was trying to dye something at 89 but I’m guessing I have to be 90?
can't dye it till you're level 90.
Yes.
Oh okay thanks
I'm working my way through ARR as SMN. I'm at lvl 39. Can I do the quest for Titan-egi on its own? Or do I need to defeat the Titan Primal first?
reaper or summoner?
anyone have a p1s macro?
Should be able to just do the quest
You have to beat Titan
The quest should mention that
Oh mb then
Depends on who you like more. Note that you can only play reaper if you have endwalker + a job at lvl 70
That's what I thought, but I'm just back to playing again after almost a year off 😅. Thanks
Why am I getting zero hits? I just wanna sort that specific raid nothing else but I get "no hits"....
completely different types of jobs LOL
Just queue for it
just duty finder it LOL
only need pf for savage
Hi, quick question. Trying to do the relic weapon quest. I have my zenith weapon equipped but I can’t do the Up In Arms quest - it’s showing already completed?
You have the atma?
How many packs can a trust tank while i'm afk?
No I haven’t because I haven’t got the quest in my journal
After speaking to Jalzahn, the quest will move to your "completed quest log"
Ah sorry! I see
Now get your atmas then come back
wheres the NPC exchange for the ucob/uwu weapons?
does the ||starbird|| minion drop in any of the chests from the ||Dead Ends|| dungeon?
last one only I'd assume
as most other "special" rewards (mounts, orchestrion rolls, minions) would
Yeah
Probably only one, doing runs with trusts as a tank they don’t pump out enough dps to do more than one
It’s in Kugane iirc
Next to the Aetheryte
Eschina in Rhalgr reach has it as well
How do I fix the "system changes require a redistribution of attribute points allocated to your weapon" for my anima weapon, it refunded me the treated crystal sand but won't let me allocate it
I've managed to get them to tank 2 packs with Thancred, Alisaie and Alphinaud
Interesting, they barely handle one pack when running it as a tank, although I guess that’s to extend the run time
I just don’t know why you would afk, it’s already gonna take 30ish minutes
I'm running as dps, Thancred is surprisingly tanky
Because I have other things to do
Where do I trade in my Yellow Scrips from ShB?
I believe there's a person in Mor Dhona that exchanges them? Don't quote me tho

Does anyone know Raubahn's height?
tall enough
