Last boss and 3rd non-boss chest I think
Ah
if you go to the dungeon lodestone page and click on the treasure coffer button under each boss it shows you what drops from that boss
oh thank you
thanks
what are the level 80 job quests for exactly? since they dont really unlock anything?
Story
Hi everyone! Returning player here 🙂 Hope eveyone is doing fine, it's there like an easy way to know what I need and what not from my inventory so I can put it away or sell it/trash it? Im kinda full
I'm not positive, but I think the level 80 quest is also required to unlock the final part of the job quest chapters in New Game+
If something has a “shop selling price” that’s fairly low, you can trash it
That’s the one at the very bottom
Not the sell price above it
If you're up for it, you can look them up on Gamerescape or GarlandDB to find our what they're for and judge for yourself. There's not really anything in the game that will tell you if you should keep something.
I am a little late to finish MSQ, do people still do clear parties in PF for the ex trials?
(Primal)
Yes, usually unsynced though, for mount farming
(For the new ex trials I mean)
I don't check PF for those often, but I do still see them when I do
I’m probably checking at a bad time of day tbh
Peak hours would be the best time, yea
Which is starting about now I would say as east coast is getting out of work/school

Do they allow us to renew our sub early or no?
Only with timecards, I think.
And those only work if you’re on the standard subscription
Do we have a collectible rotation guide
Dont they unlock the gearsets?
no
if i do a raid in min ilvl silenced echo does fflogs compare it only to other milse runs or every run
lv 80 job quests has nothing to do with the lv 80 AF set
That was role quest
role quest =/ job quest
Ohh you mean the bonus quests
say i have a full bar of rested EXP. will they get entirely consumed if i level up an ARR job from, for example, 1 to 3?
The point is that they get you back to your class trainer instead of ||all the weird stuff that happens in shadowbringers||
the guy you talk to that you need to do the role quest for gives it to you
Yes
well i got my bird atk to 10 and healing to 4, what should i focus on
honestly healing its nice for doing fates an choco just healing you up
well i only have gotten 2 onion as a free, i want to know what i should focus on next
and yes
Healer > dps > tank
alright, time to max out healing
Yes
They give titles if I'm not mistaken
whats the highesdt dps class rn
Rpr
excluding summ
reaper (shocker) then monk
Yep and monk is also getting buffed on top of that soooo
hm alright guess i gotta unlock repar
Summoner is nowhere near the highest. 
dont play to the "meta" do what you like
it's such a miniscule dps difference
!faq meta
I think they just don’t want to play summoner? I dunno
a good dancer will easly clear content faster then a bad reaper altough they have very low dmg
well it would be weird if it was considering how easy it is right now
hard to be a bad reaper tbh they are very easy to play
compared to shb
reaper be like: hehehe i press 1-2-3 dmg go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrttttttt
high number funny
No
Low skill floor, very high skill ceiling
preety much
how?!
Reaper optimisation is quite high
how?!
It’s same with SAM
With double Communio burst. Triple Communio pot
What do Immortal Sacrifice stacks do if you don't yet have the skill that allows you to use them?
here comes the sam main
If you’re not playing it correctly, you ain’t getting the big number
The fact your rotation isnt a 2min cycle so you have to drop a gcd to keep aligned
I heard you like sam so we added sam to sam
same with no utlity increased ranged attacks while reaper high dmg and offering a dmg buff to the party
u can't play reaper incorrectly
Gluttony being an ass skill etc
Reaper Advanced Rotational Theory Author: Ellunavi Sevald Contributors: Dook Prime, Torael Valdis, Rin Karigani, Laille Ormesaing, Shalfu Nyan. Special thanks to Moth Kira and Jackal for the infographs! rDPS vs. aDPS and Reaper I wanted to start this guide off with talking about the FFLogs metrics and how they relate to Reaper, as well as how t...
only way to play rpr poorly is if you allow yourself to overflow on resources or dont use the skill when active and lose the chance to use it
Reaper optimisation goes deep
so does every other class optimisation
but what do I know I main tank and RDM exclusively why am I arguing about dps optimisation
because everyone is a dps
You can't get them until you have that skill. Arcane Circle gets upgraded to give those stacks at 88. Same level you get Plentiful Harvest.
unless you are paladin :C
baby dmg
#paladinsareoprresed
poster boy being average in their own exp sadge
RDM has some high optimisation with double and triple melee combos
RDM is fun
me see funny hud turn red
monkey neuron activation
50/50 red crystal charge melee combo me happy
So is it useless to use Arcane Circle before 88? Someone's trying to tell me a 3% attack increase isn't worth using the skill and I don't know how to tell them that's kind of the wrong mindset for FFXIV.
No?
wtf? it's not on the gcd just pop it when u need to burst
That person is fucking stupid as balls
It's free damage
“More damage is more damage”
err are they high?
if someone says 3% buff isn't worth he probably has never done an extreme/savage in his life
"ah yes don't use free damage"
and has not seen a duty without the message: "a player is new to the duty you will be awarded extra"
"excellent idea"
free dmg for you and the team that doesnt cost a gcd and dont use it b4 88?
if u have the brainpower to optimze then optimize
he's probably a combat mentor too lmao
if u dont want to, then just do something basic and be 5-10% weaker than players that are optimizing
not a big deal if you arent doing savage/extremes
Probably someone who uses the combo plugins and can't press more than 1 button
its not like hes going for ranks but its a free dmg for doing nothing just press it
fr
tbf there is quite a bit of optimization to be done for these classes too
of course
I think anyone below 90 deserves some leeway with their rotation, u cant expect them to be good yet
bruh that's just....
looks to the rdm hard casting ver spells at the final msq dungeon
the only case where I wont expect someone to know how their class works is if they have a sprout icon next to their name
pain reading that
i mean
it was pain being there
sprout icon is 300 hours now
is it?!
And ShB
Mhm.
wasn't it finish ARR?
bruh!!!
you can be very very good at any class with under 20 hours practice
since when?
There's a difference between not knowing your job and not pressing your fucking buttons
Changed with 6.0
didnt remove it starting of shb and move to start of ew assuming starting from arr
bro I learn most classes in 15 minutes (WAR for example since I boosted it cause me and my friends needed a tank for the static)
well casual players dont have the brainpower to perfectly weave in 20 ogcd abilities most likely...
I’m not an optimal DNC but I press the damage buttons
well then they shouldn't play GNB
.
Can we take this to lounge?
agreed
ppl arent asking for perfection just decent good enough
reminds me of the combat mentor in my NN today who said they like to keep full uptime on medica 2 in alliance raids
"in case someone takes damage in the next 5 seconds idk"

Pretty please? Or do I have to do mean please and call mods?
or my Dragoon mentor that unironically died 5 times to the first boss in a lvl 70 dungeon and then asked US if we are new and don't know the mechanic when he stood in aoe
Does anyone know the ost that plays in EW Spoilers ||thavnair after Matsya saves the baby from turning and we hand out the chai tea in the camp, it plays in the entire thavnair area in the quest Simple Pleasures, also plays a few times in SHB||
Is there away to stop getting pranked by the Delubrum Reginae queue? It keeps throwing me into a group with like 2 other people tops who immediately leave
It auto puts you in after 10mins
don't farm memories in bozja
it will take you months
farm them in fates outside
check a guide on the internet
And people still are in bozja
Cluste farms particular
for tortured memories? and that shit
the 2nd quest
i swear it was faster outside
well if you say so
bozja is fun
especially some of the harder fates, the blue ones
Good cluster farm groups make thst step easy
when trying to apply this glamour plate it shows an X on some of the pieces and doesn't apply the glamour
If people actually did delubrum these days then it would be under a week
I meet the conditions on the lvl and job
What gear you wearing
Your equipped gear is too low
||https://i.imgur.com/hhHVsss.png how do i get here?=||
oh even that matters?
so I have to have a lvl 80 chestpiece to apply lv80 glamour to it
Go east, you’ll see a bridge
oooo right, I thought my job's level matters not the gear ty
there's like a bridge from rocks
Nice! FOUND IT
If i buy something on the store and i am not in my home world, do i have to go back to claim it?
Yes
Yes. You can't access moogle mail on other worlds
yes your mail will flash and will say return to your homeworld to claim this thing
Cause you can't access the mail while visit
question about p3s and the setup and stuff. People in PF like to throw down the 1/2/3/4 markers and people go in pairs for them. How do people decide which group goes west/east for the split before add phase (if the boss goes through the middle). And how do they decide who goes north/south for adds?
usually its t/h left dps right for condemnation and n/s groups are determined beforehand
is there a comand for price checking an item?
!market [item name]
World or DC name before the item name
can i remove the lock/arrows from my hotbar? they are overlapping other bits of my ui and i never use them
thinking about using another hotbar and rebinding all normal keys
you can remove the arrows but not the lock. best you can do with the lock is hide it behind another ui element
for the arrows its in character config > hotbars > "enabled hotbar cycling button"

Where do I get the white moonfire hapi?
Cash shop
Oh
All old seasonal items end up there
How much?
hello my good people, when will the base game be out for sale again and how much does it cost?
25th/26th, and $20
where would I find groups that do dalriada, castrum, etc. I checked out some discords but they are all super dead
Is there a way to unsync and complete an alliance raid? Because i really dont want to spent 45+ minutes in queue for Void Ark
or is that just not doable
- It doesn’t normally take that long unless dead of night.
- Get 2 other overly leveled people
You need 3 people at the minimum to Unsync an alliance raid
dope
You still have to mechanic, which may require more people
didnt know if it was possible
But like no one ever does it
^
Is the Rathalos extreme fight difficult when unsynced, specifically when we have someone at 90 and someone in their late 70s?
No
mk
Nah, I’m at 70 and parties are still clearing in 2:15 with me
You can solo all stacks
nice, alright
- me at 70, rest 90
does anyone ever run DR savage
most likely
Try bozja/eureka discords
it's generally setup in a discord
oh cool, where can i find em
If you cut the tail a little early and melee LB you can push this to 2:00
pop tail at iirc 27-30%
it'll insta kill
save most of your bursts for when he drops down
and use jobs that just spam stuff since his drop down counter is based on actions used on him
like bard, mch, dnc or nin
mnk also works
the bozja discord for my server has been dead for months Dx
so if i wanted to lvl a few crafter classes kinda of fast how much gil am i looking at spending
at least to 70 i want to make byakko glam
Is it possible to run the second coil of bahamut turn 1 solo at level 76 and still get items?
You still get stuff from Unsyncs
Is primal known for anything? As in, Crystal is the unofficial RP DC, aether has many streamers, etc
I was trying to go there on foot lol launched it gonna see how I go. Need that high allagan ring
dc stereotypes are super inaccurate and you should not make any decisions based on them.
can I farm the paladin lion (armored) from only EX trials?
fair enough
So far the couple of times I’ve asked, not really.
ye just go wherever your friends are honestly
!faq worldpick
You can play on any world on any datacenter within FFXIV. Aside from the languages spoken, the physical location of the servers, and the status of each world, there are no major differences. This also means population on a given server is quite meaningless.
The majority of content is cross-world, with the exception of Free Companies, Linkshells, and restrictions when visiting other worlds.
If you don't mind where you play, choose a world that is Preferred or New for character creation bonuses. Check world status by using !status <world name> or via the Lodestone. For information about the status types, use !faq worldtype in #kupo-bot-spam.
Notable worlds:
- Balmung & Mateus (Role-playing)
- Tonberry & Kujata (Large amount of Oceanic players)
- Moogle (Large amount of French players)
- Shiva (Large amount of German players)
ANY CENSUSES OR WORLD STEREOTYPES BEYOND THIS IS INACCURATE BIAS AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY
Haven't had to use this for a while
woulnt the tonberry/kuja have to edited soon when oce servers hit
Yes
But until then
can we all just take a second to appriciate kupo bot? what a great guy
Go tip the dev
nah im too poor for that
all the faqs are mentor/moderator/admin made
but yeah, go tip Eanae 
(i think it's Eanae at least)
We’re gonna get some mileage come the 25th
actually, would y'all get use out of it?
Since the in-game thing will have the servers labelled as oceania
though i guess people won't read or will ask before they even load up the game
i put too much trust in people being able to read
Yes, yes you do
Kupo bot specifically though is made by eanae (with help of whale and a few others)
“But I don’t live in Oceania, I’m from Australia”, someone will say
I can run coils solo :D so happy. Lmao better than the last memories I had of here
It'a finicky but doable
They’re lvl 76
how long do you think it can take to do the anima questline and get the lux weapon as of right now?
like a week and a half
less if you grind poetics like a mad man
what's the limit of poetics per day?
As much as you can stomach
oh rly? thought it was limited. do you know the quickest way to get poetics?
!faq poetics
ty!
I'm running 390 piety on my sage atm. Would using this gear on my whm be unfeasible due to the low mana?
It would be feasible
But you could struggle
Hopefully you don't have to rez more than twice
the lowest piety bis for WHM is 592
comfy piety is 719
when did they add the grand company and when has they last update it?
grand company has been in the game since 2.0
!faq limitbreak
Resources by Allagan Studies
Limit Break Explained
Shadowbringers Limit Break Video
Everyone's weapon
last update was 4.4, with the captain rank and weapons. Though 2 new items were added to grand company seals in 6.0
The “seal gacha”
i hope they update it with new rank, seem like a waste that half the rank can't be use
They'll only update it when there's something worthwhile to add to make the additional ranks meaningful
World transfer is locked until Jan 25 right?
world transfer, i thought membership and expasion comes back in that date
how does the blacklist command work? im trying to block someone from another server but it wont let me

i want the other 2 before endwalker
but how do i become a member then
Have the base game...which is coming back the 25th
that is what im waiting for
i don't want to buy a dlcs, and then not be able to do anything or store since im not allow a bank or the market
If i play the free trial on my playstation, can I play on PC as well? Or do I have to buy both licenses even if on free trial
You can’t even use the DLCs without the base game, dude
high end duty
That’s a quest, you have the duty in your trial menu
Spoilers
Wrong menu, old EXs are in the regular section
Sorry I forgot about it
free trial is locked to one platform
if you want to play on both PC and PS4, you need to buy the game, on BOTH
another question about p3s. For the post-add phase where you gotta split into light parties. Do you decide where you go, kinda like junction shiva in e12s?
Where do the A and S rank hunts spawn? Where will i need flying
The real question is why haven’t you unlocked it
Might be better off asking in #endgame-lounge
I unlocked all of the endwalker ones today
but haven't touched the other ones
hence why i'm asking ^^
Does the allagan ring of Fending & slaying drop from turn 1 or 2? The 4 wikis for the game have conflicting info
Probably both
Why you want it anyway
If it was both why wouldn't it say it lol they gotta shut some wikis down.
Hey I wanna invite kupo bot to my server how do I do that
For Memories, should I do Bozja or go to the specific fates?
Probably both, since you need to get your mettle up to unlock more bozja content anyway
If you need mettle, do bozja until you have all 3 zones
If you have all 3 zones
Do fates
Preferably as blu
I'm just getting second phase weapon
It says I can do HW fates or Bozja
Just wondering which is more efficient
Not many people gonna be running HW fates, tho
Fates is generally what most people go for but if you don’t have mettle yet better do bozja
How much it used to be the complete edition of ffxiv with endwalker before suspension?
60 bucks iirc
Then go do fates
$20 for starter + $40 for EW
Can I farm memories on another class?
should i get a party for this? there are a lot of people standing there as well
Yes which is why they said be BLU
Ah damn
just saw in the website this:
Only level 22 on blu lol
now im confused
Turn 2 isn't giving loot so back to 1 lol
You should, treasure dungeons are hard to solo as they sync you
Yes that’s the European price
damn ok
Well I’ll tell you that that only went up to ShB before they stopped sales
$ and euro have different values
You do know how currency works, right
Dam🅱️
When did we overtake Euros
1 min left on the clock, i panicked, use my highest level tank and went in and it was a lv64 warrior, the mobs in there were lv70 
Well you most definitely do not want to enter treasure dungeons underleveled
yeah lesson learned, didnt know it's scaled to 70 instead
Was it not a lvl 70 map
In SHB dancer and dark knight was added right?
red mage and sam
drk, mch, ast
Oh oki ty
What is the Tsukuyomi's Moonlit Arms for? Is it a wall decoration?
!item Tsukuyomi's Moonlit Arms
Ohhh
How does one get demimateria? Both field and battlecraft?
Desynth
That's weird? Why doesn't it show up as- ohhh is it cuz it comes as a combo for the sword and shield?
Desynth any gear?
Wiki just says there's too many to list, so there's no list 💀
I'll look to see if there are any lists around
I'm only looking at demi 1's for the recipe books, since I'm starting to get my crafting jobs to 60
If i change the class of my squadron member will I have to lvl them again from 1 to 60
So don’t do it if they’re close to leveling up, or all the exp was wasted
Ahh big brain strats
📌
got it
Free trial player here. I have a character made but I haven’t started playing. I really like later classes. I’m leaning towards SAM. Which I know is after free content. However nothing is jumping is out to start out as. What’s a good class that I can level fast and have fun? I thought about rogue/ninja or maybe warrior. Any suggestions? Maybe rogue/ninja.
Is it possible to get the extreme mounts through solo runs?
I've heard people can just pop the bosses quickly though, what's that all about?
SAM and MNK share gear, so you can begin as MNK and transition into SAM later without having to get new gear
Oh I didn’t know that. I heard monk is very positional character. Can I level pretty fast with them?
MNK lost most of its positionals, and leveling your first job is more or less via the story
That’s largely been removed this expansion but it still has the fastest gcd
If you do the msq, any job lvls fast
In other words, essentially the same across all jobs
Ok cool, wasn’t aware of that
(except for parts where the story tells you to do multiplayer content, dps queues are way longer than tank or healer queues)
how do i get to send my retainers to go mining for me, i have a lv 20 miner, do i need to be higher lv or?
Ventures
You have to gear them up also
There's a quest to unlock them but I forgot 
I would assume dps is longer and no big deal. Appreciate the help, I’m going to look into Monk. Which I played in ff11 days lol
Yeah, there’s a much larger dps playerbase so queues can be quite longer
There’s few examples where this isn’t the case
But generally yes
Typical of any MMO. Warrior looks fun as well but not sure I feel like tanking these days
i have ventures but they dont go to mine anywhere. just normal resources
Then they’re not a miner
||hydealyn's weapon can dye? I saw sage's can dye, but reaper's cant|| if consider spoiler, plz tell me to delete it
Warrior is pretty great, and tanking is about as easy as turning on tank stance, aoe twice, run to the next group, aoe. The only part that requires any real forethought is just making sure your properly cycling through your defensive cds
Which isn’t hard in the slightest once your use to it
how do i make them a miner, i have the miner class at lv 20 and the book to change their class but i dont see it as an option
I played back in 2014 and had a paladin but I really don’t remember much of the class but I was 60 and doing end game , so I must have enjoyed it lol.
They definitely streamlined it since heavensward, such as it no longer reduces your damage
Just set it and forget it
warrior is pretty good and tanking is the most braindead of the roles right now
Sam and dancer I like but since later in the content for me, just trying to figure out ideal job to play to get there. A lot of options. I always play tanks or melee dps. But drg I have zero interest in.
Is there a recommended level I should do the other guild quests? I started one of them but I need to be level 20
Guildhest? You really can just ignore them
Job quests are very important
Oh class quest
Thaumaturge's guild
Correct
Do mechanics that drop you to 1 HP count as damage for the macrocosmos heal?
can someone link a good lvling guide for blacksmith i wanna craft byakko weapons
yep
or well, it did for the 83 ex
i use it all the time for that
Can someone link a guide for how to farm timeworn maps?
hi. question:
ive played ffxiv on and off for over a year o so now on eu server, but i get on to play very late. because of this i always have issues with queueing and raid schedules and such, so im considering transfering to NA server.
will i get noticable lag when it comes to dodging boss mechanics and such?

Hey uh I played a bit before as the healer that also throws a stone at the enemy and I got bored and quit, what class should I play that is fun early game and late game? Or just more fun in general.
awww sadge is it just me or does limbo chiton and asphodelos chiton look exactly the same?
You do know that Savage drops are just dyeable versions of the normal drops
i didn't realize that. good to know. i mean i see the stat increases, but they looked exactly the same 😄
Hard to pick one for you as fun is subjective, but if you enjoy pressing 1 button for most of an encounter then white mage (the stone-throwing job) should be fine
If you like having a seizure on the keyboard, consider astrologian or ninja
!faq meta
fair enough ¯_(ツ)_/¯
@tropic timber thing is, most jobs feel 'boring' and slow until they get more stuff to press at 50-60s at least
I suggest looking up some job show cases and go for what aesthetically appeals to you
That makes sense, maybe throwing a rock didn’t seem too thrilling to me, I’ll look at vids on classes
What is DoH
Healers typically only have like 2 main dmg buttons plus others if they have
even at low level, all you do on future busy jobs will just be your basic 1-2 rotation
larryzaur made a pretty entertaining vid on all jobs
Even at lvl 90, healers are just; use dot every 30s? Spam your stone equivalent all the time
the crafter and gatherers
is not too in depth but it does give a pretty entertaining perspective on what the class will be
Is it difficult to keep agro as a tank?
not really
not at all
I’d assume you gotta keep a button pressing
there is really good tutorial ingame that will give u some green gear
As long as you have your stance up youre guaranteed top aggro if you're the only tank
As long as you're hitting stuff
Oh cool epic
which you should already be doing whenever there's an enemy 
make sure to tap everything in the pull at least once and u should be fine for the most part
Mkay
Hi all quick question about the Samurai boost here: https://store.finalfantasyxiv.com/ffxivstore/en-us/product/815
Im still on Realms Reborn and the Samurai Job is actually what got me to play the game, and I really would like to start playing it.
If I purchase this do I still get to do the main story quest thought or do I skip it? Also it says it boosts my job lvl to 80, I looked up some YT videos and they are sayin that it will boost my main lvl to 80 so I am confused 😦
I am a lvl 48 monk right now 🙂
job skip is separate to story skip
no, you don't get to skip story
yes it boosts your samurai job to level 80
Job skips are job skips
it does not affect your monk's job
ok awesome 😄
Nothing else
every job has their own level
but also
you are literally right about to unlock samurai
the only requirement is level 50
also on the bar to the left u will all enemies they have a figure in front on name that tell their aggro status as long they are red squares it means u have the aggro if that figure changes it means u lost the aggro of the specific enemy
if you're going to skip for any class, why buy a skip for a job that starts at level 50
it starts at lvl 50 and its just 40 levels of grinding to max tho
Or 60
Ok but what is the difference between job and main lvl? If I start samurai do I start from lvl 1 and my damage output is like as if I was a lvl 1 player?
i assume they plan to do MSQ with it, so not even
every job has their own separate level
samurai begins at level 50
theres only job level
monk/pugilist begins at level 1
no main level
AHHH OK
If you’re not high enough to do something with one job, just swap to one that is
but I guess if you want to do main quest you have to be at the recommended level :/
i mean
samurai
literally
starts at 50
you can just switch cold turkey at level 50 monk
you won't miss a thing
which is why I mentioned if you're gonna boost anything, boost a class that starts at level 1
not level 50, 60, or god forbid 70
To be quiet honest I like to pvp and raid thats it really and looking at the jobs samurai seemed like the perfect balance between both pvp and raid
ok well
Monk is really cool but AoE is a bitch
first of all
Pvp is a different game mostly
Thankfully EW jobs don’t get boosts, so nobody does a dumb
PvP is not a focus in ff14
I know but I bewief
Your hotbars and skills are differently
PVP caps at level 30
so it doesn't matter what level you are anyway
at level 30 you unlock your entire PvP potential
But samurai is a good job for raiding right?
all jobs are good for raiding
all of the jobs are
samurai is a high DPS class but they provide no raid utility
so you could, if you really wanted to, argue that SAM is actually less good for raiding in that regard
which, by the way, is a shitty argument
before people start pinging me
Although at current state, some jobs are more desirable than others. Doesnt make the rest obsolete. Balance changes always happens. And for the most part the jobs are very well balanced
So don't worry too much
they do the highest damage (barring reaper) but they do nothing else
This is somewhat true. SAM is considered a selfish dps. So if you're not good at the job, you're contributing nothing else to the party
this is especially true
What the heck are these:
Irrelevant
Jobs with raid buffs, even if you're doing shit dps on your own, your buff contributes to dmg
wait. wait wait. do these rewards change weekly? Does that mean I could potentially get 1mill mgp per week with just the wondrous tails just by clearing 3 lines?
yes but 3 lines is extremely rare
No they’re based on your max level
ok I see 😮
My second fav job is monk but I have issues with the AoE :/
in my entire career playing ff14 for like 5 years I've seen the 3 line once
good luck clearing 3 lines, and yes they're based on your max level.
can't i just like... do them all?
howso
Whats your issue with mnk aoe? Maybe we can help
no
The aoe is in a small circle around you
no, you are limited to only 9 stickers
You see that big 9
You can only get 9 stickers per book
!faq wondroustails
Wondrous Tails are unlocked by speaking to the Unctuous Adventurer for the quest Keeping Up with the Aliapohs in Idyllshire upon reaching level 60 with at least one combat class.
Speaking with Khloe Aliapoh afterwards will give you a journal that has a series of random combat challenges to be completed which award you with a sticker that appears on the right-hand side of the journal. This journal can be accessed from the key items section of your inventory.
Your goal is to try and collect 9 stickers from completing those challenges. The stickers will appear in a random location on the 4x4 grid, but can occasionally align and form a straight line of 4, which can award you with additional rewards. Multiple line orientations are possible, with 3 lines being the most difficult to accomplish. Here is an image that shows how your stickers can be lined up so you can have the highest chance of 3 lines. Use the 'second chance' points you earn from completing content with new players to shuffle your 4x4 board around to try for 3 lines! To view what the possible rewards are for the Wondrous Tails or to see when they reset, use the !wt in #kupo-bot-spam Good luck!
I feel like I cant clear faster with the team thats my issue
here's all possible 3 line configurations
and I feel like im just good when it comes to the boss fight
ohhh
Not a problem
but before that i feel useless
Overall, chances of a 3 line is about 1% more or less
let me guess, no four-point-fury
what's that treasure bag sticker thing
this is just wrong and you'd see it if you happen to have a DPS meter
even just spamming one AoE ability, you're doing more than acceptable damage
Im only lvl48
if you want to actually do raiding content aoe isn't gonna matter much at all.
Don't worry about it
You mean the allagan piece?
That’s just free money
I got excited for a sec there with the wondrous tails rewards, but thx for explaining it to me 😄
Monke at its current state is actuaslly very fun
Remember, in dungeons the enemy health bars are bigger than overworld mobs
Most jobs feel like ass at low levels
But you also have more players
Yea I mean I was thinking ranged dps but Im more of the punshing my face into the keyboard guy 😄 Also i like to be in the mix more haha
And some.don't get aoe attack till 40+
At lvl 50 monk is basically complete
So while the individual chunks are smaller the frequency of those chunks is more
Then you get real fun buttons, to hit big numbers
FWIW the gold ticket is potentially worth over 10m
but it will take a ton of patience even barring getting the 3 line
and not just the mount
Not patience as much as luck
10mill gil for 30000 mgp??? wow lol
No
What
Gold certificate
if you buy the ornate gear piece and sell it day 1 of a new raid tier in like the first 6 hours of the release
i see
you might strike gold with a rich world firster
Ornates are valuable because you don't need to overmeld them
They just have 5 slots
the gold certificate isnt listed, just silvers and bronze
?market elemental Calydontis horn
actually, I should ask, can you meld all materia 10s into an ornate
Is anyone else lagging tonight? Dungeons are really annoying rn.
yes, that's specifically why the 5 meld slots are valuable
because you don't have the overmeld limitation of only 3 max tiers
If I got a gold certificate I would cry a bit cause free trial
save it
Inciatus is still going for 20 mil on my world
Its about 10mil last I checked on elemental. Stabilised price afaik
Damn am I missing something with this mount? It looks ugly & that price is insane.
Exclusivity
That's pretty much it
https://www.reddit.com/r/ffxiv/comments/myf7uz/complete_guide_to_crafter_leveling_all_jobs_lv/ is this guide still relevant i only want to make it to 70 for now
Damn, the prices people will pay for exclusivity even if it's just for an ugly pig 😅
But it’s my ugly pig, and you don’t have one /s
Thats pretty much how game economy works mostly
Because collectors exists
As long as an item is rare and low in supply.
With a relatively high demand. Prices are going go up
Should be. The only change is that the stat squish might make any included macros for crafting stuff not work
I've been playing for close to a year and doing wondrous tails weekly for 8 months at least
Never seen a 3lines myself 
My friend did recently get it
ok would you reccomend a diff one then ?
Made 20mil right off the bat
i got around 5 mill gil saved up
Man I've been doing it on and off for 4 years and haven't seen 3 lines lol
I don’t know any others
so i did mt glug with my 80 drk but none of my rested exp was used, why?
I don’t really look for crafting/gathering guides
I’ve done WT basically every week since it came out in patch 3.4 or so, and I’ve only gotten 3-lines once
I think I’ve had nearly a dozen or two failed 3-line books
Where the last sticker or two miss the sweet spot
will there be new crafted gear with 5.2 ?

Sorry if this is too beginner of a question(?), im in limsa lominsa, the map says here there should be a way to get to western la noscea which is where i need to be for aquest, but theres nothing. its just a dock and theres no loading zone or whatever - am i missing something?
Talk to the NPC in front of the ferry to buy a ticket to Western La Noscea
That little boat icon at the top of that screenshot
oh ive been there but the guy only sells passage to - aleport, costa del sol, mist
when i clicked a random one (i think costa del sol) it said i have to be lvl 30 or something like that? I just checked again and it only allows me to go to aleport, is that what im trying to do
Aleport
Yes. Aleport is in Western La Noscea
Alright, thanks a ton!
is wonderous tails purely rng? as in no reason to do any strategy or pick one task over another except for being quicker?
yeh, rng

!faq altlvlguide
Did they change it for asphodelos 4th that you only get one item? I swear I got 2/2 last week for it
https://embody.co/products/ffxiv-immerse is this thing available on Mac
is it worth doing all the roulettes every day?
It was always like that
Weird. Ok
you get a lot of levels and you make like roughly 250k - 330k daily
You get raid drop + unsung blade
Thanks
im a complete noob, i have no idea if that's worth it :/
yeah
if youre only leveling 1 job you dont need it
for exp should i be using the opportunity to level another job?
Msq, alliance, leveling, frontline
its fine if youre leveling 2 jobs
then yes
but i only did msq so i dunno anything other than that
!faq contentunlock
Look at that
for the extreme trials, how demanding is it skill wise (i.e. do i need to do a perfect rotation and know all the mechanics from a video going in)
anyone know if retainer gear has any impact on quick venture rewards?
Anyoine know if there is a plugin for hunt marks?
Well everything pre EndWalker can be Unsynced
i meant mainly the endwalker ones, since they can give me gear upgrades
Just do the pandemonium raids
okie
Aight there just has to be a plugin somewhere that can display your dots like somewhere else ja? What it be called
How good are level 90 maps?
What do you mean by that
Like, is there insane potential for them? Or should I just take this platinum piece worth 10k gil? Doing the Wondrous Tails, and that's one of my rewards.
Look them up on the MB
Also lvl 90 portal dungeons are a thing now, so there’s items that people may want
How would looking them up on the MB help? Or are you implying it would be best to sell the map on there?
which shb msq specifically is locked behind the role quest chain?
Bc you can look at how much people are selling them for
The light of inspiration, last 79 quest
The lvl 80 msqs iirc
cheers
ooooh i understand why now
Hmm... This map is only selling for like 36k right now.
then keep the map and open it with a party
Does artifact armor goes into the armoire?
I'm trying to save space and some of them are stillwater in coffers
Yeah, I'll do that. It recommends I bring 8 people.
just to make sure, the ||starbird|| minion drops at the very last chest after ||Ra-La|| in the last dungeon right? is the drop rate just that low or is it a chest hidden somewhere
Just the ARR ones
@river vortex thats correct
is there a way to level up without consuming rested exp, then?
no
can materia transmutation give a lower grade than what i feed? say i feed 4 vi and 1 ix, can i get viii?
Pretty sure it’s based on the lowest grade used, so you either get vi or vii
aside from moving and attacking is it even worth it to use Ruin 2 anymore as SCH
used to used it after broil but after the cast time reduction i don't anymore
you use it for long movement
Do retainers lose all progress if you change their job?
yes
yeh, back to lv 1
ruin 2 lets you double weave
Can I still do ishgardian restoration stuff to get the pteradactyl mount? or is that stuff over now
It’s still there, isn’t getting updated again

changing from job to job, yes. changing from class to any job, no
there kinda is, but it's dumb and scuffed. since only 'combat' xp consumes rested xp bar, doing non-combat stuff like completing quests will not consume rested xp, but unless it's MSQ you get pretty trivial amounts of quest xp, and you usually kill stuff for quests, consuming the rested xp.
fixed amount rewards like khloe book also dont touch rested
rested exp is very easy to refill, just use it
i haven't done potd for leveling myself, so i dont know if the chunk you get at the end is considered 'combat' xp
for example, all boss and dungeon completion xp in dungeons is considered combat xp, hence why you spiritbond gear mega fast in leveling dungeons
while it's trivial to refill, it's more 'useful' to use it on higher level jobs since it amounts for WAY more xp. i think they're just trying to optimize things to do so they get max value out of rested
just finished ocean fishing...now what do i do with all these fish
my inventory is 80% fish
The 1-star resource gives more spiritbond than the non-1 star one right?
even though they're the same node
yea
Yikes
For the past 3 days I've been avoiding gathering the 1-star on 2 legendary nodes
because it sold for crap
at least i believe so
because stonehard is used for potions
and the ore is used for crafted gear
so the water will be more in demand
No
I collect stonehard
but
I avoided collecting logs and the leaf
because they sold for crap lol
leaf is used for food
while still needed, lasts a lot longer than potions
during the pre patch every gatherer was spirit bonding their sets
so there was a ton of people gathering those
even off peak hours there were like 5 gatherers on a legendary node at once
you can't solo extrem suzanoo?
no because of his mechs, like the sword and gaol/prison
you need at least one person tapping the sword and one other dpsing it
god... so freakin annoying

What’s the best type of materia to sell on the marketplace? I’m trying to make Gil and the materia I’ve put up for sale sells quick
X and IX
did we ever learn which specific ascian ysayle has a fragment of?
||Not ascian, ancient.
And no, we don't know about anyone except WoL/ardbert being azem shards||
Any specific type? Like battlearm or piety?
crit
Which jobs should I set retainers as?
Where would I get those?
hunts, lvl 90 content, roulettes, literally anywhere you would get cracked dendroclusters
Preferably jobs you leveled,as they canno succeed you in levels
So doing the dungeon ||The Dead Ends|| and others?
duties should say if they reward clusters
Ah okay. I need to get my item level up to do those
It says I need 565 and I’m at 555
So to get the final GC rank it says I have to run 5 different command missions. Does that mean 5 completely different ones or can I run the same 5?
different
which one should i go for, im a warrior and dark knight
fending
fending=tanks
Is there a rotation I should have in mind while fishing? I'm only level 23
Or do I just chum then cast at this point?
do roulettes bring you from 80-90 alone?
like one level a day?
or half a day
if you do all
which is best pick?
check the MB for prices on the map
poetics are good if you're working on a HW relic or just need more gear
its made of an 8-man group if a portal spawns
also geez those have gone down fast. wouldnt be suprised if the SHB ones are still selling better

I've been messing in my pc display setteings but defaulted anyway
and suddenly my ffxiv ui got messed up
any ideas why?
probably your resolution?
what's the antiquted sword for that drops from 8man normal raid?
well for some reason everytime I set ui size to 150% it becomes 300% in size
so my options are
100%
150%(300%)
200%(300%)
300%
you can exchange them for the discal tomestones iirc
yes from the 4th normal raid
how or where can i turn down other players spell effects? doing bozja and shit is BLINDING
character settings, controls, character tab

Does the "Looking to Meld Materia" status mean I'm willing to meld other people's gear, or that I'm looking to have someone meld for me? And is there an established etiquette about offering that service? Just recently got omnicrafter status, and am curious how it goes.
What does crafting with HQ materials in Free Company crafting do?
increased chance that next steps will require less materials
